About

Listening Group is at home at WALTER books in Arnhem (NL) and accompanies Bulegoa z/b's study-group Curating Positions at the Dutch Art Institute (DAI).

The conceptual foundation was layed out during a curatorial session shared by Polly Wright, Eric Peter and Leon Filter during Curating Positions study group practicing organization under present conditions.
