General Information
Having worked as curator in major museums in London, Dublin and Paris since 1998, I became independent curator this year. I am writing (Centre Pompidou, Editions de Femmes, Art and Australia, Presses du Reel, MAP magazine, FRAC Centre), editing and translating (Rochechouart, Chantal Pontbriand, NMNM), teaching and organising events (Parsons, Centre Culturel Irlandais), as well as planning curatorial projects. In 2008, I was awarded the Joanna Drew Travel Bursary to travel to Algeria and am building a network of contacts, public and private support (CulturesFrance, Culture Ireland, British Council, energy companies, Ministère de la Culture), for a series of long term exhibitions and exchanges. My personal resources are small at present but “Nostalgeria” is planned with the Royal Hibernian Academy in Dublin for 2012 or 2013. I hope the Musée d’art moderne in Algiers will join us, as well as venues in France and UK and maybe other European cities.
Mission and Objectives

“Nostalgeria” is an exhibition project that aims to build through residencies and exchanges. It would start as a dialogue in the broadest sense between Algerian and Irish artists and expand. The hope is to create new axis of communication and friendships as well as make extremely rich cultures more visible where they haven’t been before. It would centre mainly on the visual arts (painting, sculpture, installation, drawing, film, photography) but link through events and publications with cinema, literature, music, performance and architecture. My plan is to settle the touring partners (ideally 3 or 4 museums) in the next few months and start working together. Artists and writers would be funded to travel and collaborate to create a community spirit. I need to continue my research in order to best contribute to this enabling process. This is a key diplomatic opportunity to make positive, intelligent and profound links.

Main Projects / Activities

The artist Zineb Sedira introduced me to Algiers in April 2009. She has asked me to contribute to her forthcoming presentation at the Palais de Tokyo following the award of the SAM Art Projects prize last year by working on an interview for the publication. I am promoting both the Algerian and Irish art scenes in France and elsewhere and hope to write more and more on the subject. This is a commitment to a specialisation which will hopefully broaden to the other countries in North Africa and the Middle East. I have ongoing discussions with curator Nadira Laggoune in Algiers and visited the Panafrican festival in Summer 2009. I am helping to find funds for Algerian artists and curators to learn English to maximise their international possibilities, as well to train new curators there and translate some of the literary texts from French or Arabic to English.
