This publication gathered contributions that emerged from the conference and workshop “Situated Knowledges – Art and Curating on the Move” in June 2021 and exemplify the partiality and situatedness of one’s own position in our respective fields of expertise, within our educational frameworks and contact zones. The term “situated knowledges” coined by Donna Haraway declares that all scientific knowledge is fundamentally conditional. Against an assumption of the apparently neutral and unmediated knowledge of the (male, white) Western idea of science and its representation through totalizing visualization techniques, Haraway develops her concept of situated and embodied knowledges.
