Assembly of practice #4: Whose collection?
After ‘What does it mean to own?’, ‘Whose Artwork?’, and ‘Whose Institution’, a final Assembly of Practice brings us to art collections as potential places of shared interest. We zoom in on questions that come to the surface with the complexity of collecting contemporary art practices, increasingly immaterial, performative, situated, ongoing and collaborative in nature.

Emptor, an artistic research on the ecology of artistic practice
Emptor, a chapter that is being set up from 2021 onwards by Jubilee, continues along the methodology and efforts of Jubilee’s collective research project Caveat, actively applying the practice-based approach to ‘property’, an element that highly defines the economy of visual arts. Just as ‘the contract’ functioned as a filter and landing stage in Caveat, ‘property’ functions as a central notion, linking different discussions and research trajectories.
