The New Curator: Exhibiting Architecture and Design delves into the complexities of showcasing design concepts. Traditionally, architectural and design exhibitions have primarily focused on presenting finalized outcomes or conveying a work through representation. In this groundbreaking new publication, Fleur Watson unveils the rise of the 'new curator.' Instead of showcasing completed works or artifacts, the emergence of 'performative curation' creates a platform for testing experimental approaches to encountering design ideas. Here, the role of the curator extends beyond that of a 'custodian' or 'expert,' aiming to establish a shared space of engagement with audiences.

To exemplify this phenomenon, the book explores a diverse and international array of exhibitions, organized into six themes. Through engaging conversations with influential curators and cultural producers, including Paola Antonelli, Kayoko Ota, Mimi Zeiger, Catherine Ince, Aric Chen, Zoë Ryan, Beatrice Leanza, Prem Krishnamurthy, Marina Otero Verzier, Brook Andrew, Carroll Go-Sam, Rory Hyde, Eva Franch i Gilabert, and Paula Nascimento, a series of project profiles are contextualized.

Featuring over 100 color illustrations, this meticulously designed and visually stunning book makes a significant contribution to the field. It is an essential read for students and professionals in architecture, design, art, visual culture, museum studies, curatorial studies, and cultural theory. The book also includes a foreword by Deyan Sudjic and an afterword by Leon van Schaik AO.
