Abstract:

Fashion curating is the exercise of a critical gaze, which recognizes the multiple traces, symptoms and fragments that are around us. The article is a reflection of my practice as a curator who doesn't work in a museum, but is involved in staging curatorial projects that produce exhibitions and books informed by contemporary trend prediction. It identifies the notion of risk as implicit to the working method of the curator.
