Curating the Library In 2003, the Antwerp art centre deSingel, starts the project Curating the Library, initiated by Moritz K ng. One evening a month there will be two lectures with a variety of individuals???writers, archi tects, choreographers, composers, artists, philos o phers, sce nog raphers, scientists???presenting their favourite books: pub li cations that have inspired their work or that have played a decisive role in their life. The lectures are recorded on DVD and together with the books, they are part of a steadily growing archive that is stored in the Curating the Library space: a mobile, seemingly hermetically closed, mirroring sculpture that was designed by visual artist Richard Venlet in 2002 for the twenty-fifth S o Paulo Art Biennial. In 2009 Curating the Library ends. In the course of six years, 110 guest speakers have presented 1,557 books to the public. Reading Curating the Library In 2016-17, at the request of LUCA School of Arts and KU Leuven, Faculty of Architecture, the book collection and the reflective sculp ture move to Sint-Lucas Ghent. From January to June 2017 they become the backdrop of bustling events and lectures under the heading Reading Curating the Library.
