Summary/Abstract: Under the assumption that collective affiliations of curators and alternative political possibilities that they are generating do not produce a change, but preserve the existing hegemony and reinforce the existing relations within the institution of art, this paper aims to examine the relation of the affiliation of particular curators to the type of exhibitions that they are making. The case study that will be examined is the 54. October Art Salon in Belgrade 2013.The aim is to point to the fact that despite the limitless potential that art provides, the affiliation affects the exhibition making, the relation of a curator and the selected artists.
