Claire Louise Staunton

Curator, producer and writer based in London but working regionally and internationally. She completed her MA in Contemporary Art Theory at Goldsmiths and has worked for the National Trust (UK) OCAT Contemporary Arts Terminal (Shenzhen, China), Whitechapel Gallery (London), Longplayer/Artangel (London) Hayward Gallery (London). In 2007, as part of a fellowship with the ICA, London, Claire Louise instigated Inheritance Projects. A non-profit curatorial organization that acts as a lens through which projects are instigated, Inheritance seeks to interrogate museological schemata, expanded notions of institutional critique, heritage and historicity through exhibitions, collaborations and publications. Her own research interests focus on temporal contingencies, ‘New Towns’, migrancy and newness as conditions for art making.
