Feedforward is a curatorial format exploring curatorial methodologies and models of cooperation in the global context. It provides an open space to present and discuss projects, share and bridge resources, and reflect on ethical and humanly sustainable artistic practices. Feedforward is a research and networking platform in which practitioners are invited to present their work, receiving and giving challenging feedback and genuine support one another. The sessions can be online video-meetings (open or not to the public) or physical convivial events, depending on the locations of the participants. Common to all sessions is a principle of equality and respect among the group and the desire to reach mutual understanding and seek opportunities for cooperation. The Feedforward programme is developed by Looking Forward, a curatorial office based in London commissioning and producing transnational projects with specific focus on social justice.

The following practitioners participated in this seminar:

Thomas Cury, independent curator, Holly Graham, artist, Michael Ohajuru, Senior Fellow Institute of Commonwealth Studies, Basil Olton, artist and independent curator, Nephertiti Schandorf, Artistic Director of Peckham Platform, Sarah Thomas, Senior Lecturer in the History of Art department at Birkbeck, University of London, chaired by Carolina Lio, Director at Looking Forward.
