SUMMARY:New Object Lessons: Curating for 2012 and Beyond 
UID:{http://www.columbasystems.com/customers/uom/gpp/eventid/}d1g-h0l1i0h

DESCRIPTION:10am-1pm. Specially devised for museum professionals and crea
 tive practitioners\, this brand new edition of the highly popular and th
 ought-provoking Curating for 2012 will explore links between everyday ob
 jects and museum collections. From the start New Object Lessons has been
  fascinated by the close relationship between the local and global\; thr
 ough its Diversity Challenges and its curatorial conversations\, it has 
 invited participants to reconsider their views and understanding of Engl
 ishness and glocal identities\; using a non racialised and non-stereotyp
 ical approach to developing sustainable cross cultural content. Curating
  for 2012 and Beyond will focus on themes relevant to both the Cultural 
 Olympiad and the forthcoming centenary commemoration of WW1. The startin
 g point of this exciting curatorial journey will be a watch\, a pack of 
 cornflakes and a bottle of coca cola. This programme will provide an ide
 al platform to reflect on the importance of shelf-learning at a professi
 onal level. \n\nCurating for 2012 was created in 2008 by a local histori
 an and museum consultant Dominique Tessier. If you're looking for more i
 nspiration\, join the New Object Lessons Facebook Group http://www.faceb
