Its really too bad that the best capitalized group in the digital art movement doesnt believe in curating. My good faith assumption is that thats based on a misunderstanding of what a curator actually does.
Good curators dont tell artists how to exhibit their work. They help artist crystalize the vision and bring the work to the next level. They solve problems (sometimes art making related, sometimes just operational), and sometimes open doors for ideas that artists hadn't even considered.
A curator that looks out for an artist is much like a good investor that looks out for their startup. Making work in your studio is one thing, putting together a coherent exhibition around it is another. A handful of artists can do it themselves, but those are usually the outliers, because its simply two different tasks.
@SamSpratt gave me a mask after curating his debut exhibition. Its called Steered Simulations. I doubt that was a coincidence.
