In a series of conversations conducted between June 2018 and February 2020, Anne Dressen and Nick Mauss exchange about their respective curatorial practices, including questions about the hierarchies established by the museum institution between art and decorative arts. Anne Dressen has often mixed different medium in the exhibitions she has organized at The Museum of Modern Art of the City of Paris. Nick Mauss, for his part, has often staged multidisciplinary exhibitions for which he has created transhistorical spaces allowing for new associations and questioning, that are an intrinsic part of his research and work.
