Adam Carr is a Curator, writer and researcher. He is a Reader in Curating and Contemporary Art, and teaches at Liverpool School of Art & Design. He is a guest lecturer for School for Curatorial Studies, Venice, Italy and the online plaftorm Collecteurs Academy who are based in New York. Since 2004 he has curated over 70 exhibitions worldwide for renowned museums, institutions and galleries, and has also authored over 200 texts on contemporary art and curating.
In June 2021 Carr was given a teaching award for Excellence in Digital Education for his work at Liverpool John Moores University.
He has curated exhibitions for museums and institutions, including Castello di Rivoli, Museum of Contemporary Art, Torino; Kadist Art Foundation, Paris; ICA, London; e-flux, New York; MOSTYN I Wales; Llandudno; Nomas Foundation, Rome; Depart Foundation, Los Angeles and Arezzo City Arts Festival, Arezzo. In addition, he has curated exhibitions a number of world renowned galleries including Francesca Minini, Milan; Yvon Lambert, Paris; Norma Mangione, Turin; T293, Naples; Sies + Höke, Dusseldorf; Johann Konig, Berlin; Nomas Foundation, Rome; Frutta, Rome; josegarcia, mx, Mexico City; Nuno Centeno, Porto; and Rodolphe Janssen, Brussels, among many others.
His research interests cross contemporary art and curating, including uses of exhibition-making, its typologies and historical context. A key area of interest is how exhibitions – often working with and presenting the work of international artists – can become vehicles through which to consider our lived reality and operate as reflective communicators of our society and politics, both past and present. He is an active researcher internationally.
He currently holds a number of guest curatorial positions worldwide. In 2021 he curated 'Other People Place' a solo exhibition of the work of Ryan Gander OBE, which opened at Nuno Centeno, Porto and is part of a series of solo exhibitions of the artist curated by Carr taking place in various venues globally. He is currently curating the second in the series which will take place in Rome in 2025. He is also currently curating a number of group exhibitions to take place worldwide between 2025-26, among them a large group exhibition of artists focusing on language, text and typography to take place in Mexico City in 2025. In 2022 he founded new contemporary arts visual space and exhibition programme titled 'Further Down the Line' which is based in Liverpool – the first exhibition opened in May 2023 and he is presently working on the programme for 2025 and 2026.
Together with artist Adriana Martinez and curator Jens Hoffmann, he ran the gallery Espacio Mango in Bogota, Colombia from 2019 to 2020.
From 2017 to 2019 he was an advisor for Art Brussels where he sat on the International Advisory Board. In 2009, he was an advisory board member for the peformance programme at Artissima, Turin. In 2009, he curated the exhibition and shop ‘THE STORE’ for Artissima and served as a curator for the fair's ‘Present Future’ section, and served as an advisor for the fair’s performance programme. In 2014, he conceived the ‘Dialogues’ section for London Art Fair.
He is a contributing editor to Mousse Magazine and CURA., and in 2019 he was appointed contributing editor of Collecteurs, New York for whom he will also serve as an advisor for curatorial and editorial content. He was previously on the editorial board of The Exhibitionist, together with Hans Ulrich Obrist, Maria Lind, Massimiliano Gioni, Jessica Morgan and Fernanda Brenner.
From 2012 to 2017 he was Head of Exhibitions / Senior Curator at MOSTYN I Wales (UK), Wales’ largest contemporary visual arts centre where he curated solo exhibitions of the work of Amalia Pica, Ryan Gander, Annette Kelm, Keith Arnatt, Kris Martin, Camille Henrot, Bedwyr Williams, Sean Edwards and Nina Beier, among others. In addition, he curated a large number of group exhibitions including ‘Return Journey’, ‘Y O U’ and ‘Dear Portrait’. His programme of exhibitions at MOSTYN featured the ‘History Series’, a sequence of group shows he conceived and curated – with support from Heritage Lottery Fund and Arts Council, Wales – that investigated the rich heritage of MOSTYN’s building and the surrounding area, and used that history as starting points for the making of exhibitions in the present. He also initiated the ‘Uprisings’ programme, giving many artists their first solo exhibition in a UK public institution.
From 2006 to 2007 he was Adjunct Curator at Kadist Art Foundation, Paris.
As a writer, he has had over 200 texts published on art and curatorial practice, contributing to a large number of catalogues and monographs which have been published by ICA London; Weils, Brussels; Whitechapel Gallery, London; Centre Pompidou, Paris; Singapore Tyler Print Institute, Singapore; Renne Collection, Vancouver; Liverpool Biennial; and Gamec, Bergamo among others.
He has served as a nominator and advisor for a number of prizes including the Paul Hamlyn Foundation Awards for Visual Arts; the Jarman Award; Becks Futures at ICA, London; the YCI (Young Curators Invitational) (headed by FIAC, Fondation d’Entreprise Ricard, and Institut Français) and Ars Viva Prize.
He has given lectures and talks at many of the institutions, museums and galleries mentioned above, as well as elsewhere, including a number of Universities and many conferences worldwide. He has given interviews for and appeared on BBC, BBC Wales, ITV and Channel 4 news
