Whose Skin? Curating Tattooed Tableaux Vivants in Contemporary Art
(Intellect, 01.04.2019) King, Dorothée [in: Journal of Curatorial Studies]
This article discusses tattoo works by contemporary artists Wim Delvoye and Santiago Sierra to raise questions about curating tattooed tableaux vivants. Showing tattoos on living persons in an exhibition context instigates an intriguing curatorial network. The relationship extends from the curator and the artist to the person carrying the artwork.

In a newly formed triangle of artistic and curatorial interests, the division of labour and distribution of profits have to be renegotiated.
