About

Paul O’Neill

(United Kingdom/Finland)

"I am invested in research-oriented curatorship, and how contemporary art practice, exhibition histories and its theories are entwined. I am invested in working closely with other practitioners in exploring how art can be social, educational, collaborative, and where curatorial practice is a cooperative process towards a more critical public life for art. I have been fortunate to be Artistic Director of PUBLICS (formerly Checkpoint Helsinki) since Fall 2017, where it has been possible to develop a new small-scale discursive art institution committed to critical social thinking, alternative art education, and to the practices of publicness."
