Chus Martinez's curatorial practice is strongly collaborative. Her exhibition projects, workshops, and publications examine the conditions under which contemporary art is experienced by audiences and the evolving role of art institutions in this relationship. She is deeply interested in the interface between theory (the Anglo-Saxon philosophical tradition) and practice (the Continental School), and between aesthetics and art philosophy.
Martinez is currently chief curator at the Museu d'Art Contemporani de Barcelona. Previously she directed the Frankfurter Kunstverein, which was included in the 2007 Frieze Art Fair with the project A Delicious Feeling of Confidence, which applied the idea of stand-up comedy to art presentation. While completing her master's degree in curatorial studies as a Fulbright fellow at Bard College, Martinez codirected Parkers Box art space in Brooklyn.
