Talk:Harald Szeemann

message: This article seems to be in its infancy as there is very basic and under developed information lumped into three categories.
Perhaps sections can be more focused on his individual contributions and influences and be organised thematically.
Such themes that can be brought forth are: early life, education & influences, life as an artist, life as a curator,
independent curating , personal life, and legacy. (JonathonTWeber41 (talk) 01:54, 26 January 2015 (UTC)
thread_title:  Elaboration & Contributions 

message: This article on Harald Szeemann needs some work. The introduction only gives readers the bare minimum. Could have more information about his role/ influence as an independent curator. Maybe there should be two separate categories for "Life" and for his works? Definitely should include pictures from the exhibitions he participated in. It might be good to move the information about Szeemann inventing the idea/ practice of the "great exhibition" that is used today to the introduction. Maybe state why his archive is "one of the most important research collections. There are definitely more sources that will shed light on Szeemann's importance in modern-day curatorial practices.

thread_title:  List of References 

message: This article suffers from issues of organization:
*"Early exhibitions": this is a long list that should be placed further down on the page, preferably in a manageable format (table or box), or selectively pruned
*"Major exhibitions" includes a list which functions (badly) like a table of contents for sections that follow it. Recommend these sections be turned into sub-sections
*"Other Word" - this reads like a CV. Edit for interest or strike.
Suggest including a section on "legacy" or something similar, to demonstrate Szeemann's ongoing relevance to younger curators.Aolivex (talk) 19:36, 25 April 2015 (UTC)
