In 2003, the
Walker Art Center mounted an exhibition curated by
Philippe Vergne, Douglas Fogle and Olukemi Ilesanmi titled,
How Latitudes Become Forms: Art in a Global Age. The curators "trace the genealogy" of their exhibit to the 1969 show by Szeeman, as they saw that exhibition as a model for a new form of international exhibitions where the curator becomes a co-participatory "author" of the process of art-making within site specific contexts. The show at the Walker represented a more globally diverse range of practitioners than the show in Bern, and included more women. The show catalog was also bound with hardware fittings. In 2013,
Germano Celant, who had met with Szeemann at the time of the original exhibition and even did a brief oral presentation during the opening night in Bern, recreated the show in its entirety. The exhibition was presented at the
Fondazione Prada in
Ca’ Corner della Regina, Venice, Italy during the opening week of the
Venice Biennale. Celant chose to co-organize the exhibition together with
Rem Koolhaas, who helped recreating the original setting in Bern, and artist and photographer
Thomas Demand. ==References==
