CONTEMPORARY VIEW

Attempts to define the contemporary in art - beyond it being art made today - can lead to a paralysing notion that the globalised "contemporary movement" is too vast and too slippery to be grasped at all. Influential New York based critic Claire Bishop gives a lecture at the NGV on Wednesday night (Clemenger BBDO Auditorium, 5.30pm) titled 'What is contemporary in museums of contemporary art?'. She will look at three European museums that act "as a radical and transdisciplinary space of experimentation".
