Interviewing artists has become one of the most established tools used by conservators of contemporary art. As a field, we have become more and more familiar with artist interviews, while also increasingly aware of the ethical and practical complexities associated with them. As part of its Cafés and Talks, INCCA is revisiting the question of interviews to explore and unpack these complexities and pitfalls.
The themes explored will include interviews within the eco-system around the artist with stakeholders such as assistants, fabricators, estates, and collectors. We'll also discuss interview versus oral history methodologies and theory, questions of knowledge, authority and power, as well as archiving and ethical use.

The kick-off of the series is on Wednesday 21 September 2022.
