Anna Colin

has worked as a curator since 2005, whether in a freelance or institutional capacity, in the UK (where I live), in France (where I’m from) and in other (largely European) contexts. Her curatorial work has been engaged with exhibition making, public programming, commissioning and collaborative processes, and with cultural practices invested at local, social, educational, environmental and/or organisational levels. The margin and the alternative, as spaces of resistance and counter-hegemony, are central themes to her practice, which often straddles the curatorial and the pedagogical, and currently engages with open spaces and the notion of value in the contemporary art sector.

She has worked as associate curator at Lafayette Anticipations in Paris (2014-20), associate director of Bétonsalon – Centre for art and research, Paris (2011-12), curator at Gasworks, London (2007-10), and radio presenter at Resonance FM, London (2002-5). She was co-curator, with Lydia Yee, of British Art Show 8 in 2015-16 (Leeds, Edinburgh, Norwich and Southampton), and has curated exhibitions and projects at venues including CA2M, Móstoles/Madrid; Whitechapel Gallery, London; Victoria Gallery & Museum, Liverpool; Contemporary Image Collective, Cairo; GAM, Turin; Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo, Guarene; La Synagogue de Delme, Delme; The Women’s Library, London; and The European Culture Congress, Wroclaw.
