ABOUT MANIFESTA 13 TOURS WITH MEDIATORS
The tours of Manifesta 13 in Marseille offer a critical perspective on how cultural institutions function as sites of knowledge production and representational power. The mediators guide the visitors through the Manifesta 13 projects placed within museum collections, together deconstructing dominant storylines and searching for unrepresented narratives. Predominantly, institutions and curators arrange storylines and plots, suggesting to audiences how to relate to the past and sketching possible scenarios for the future. They play a major role in the construction of cultural canons but do we all recognise ourselves in these canons? Which stories and whose names have we forgotten or did we not find important enough and if so for which reasons?
