IKT | mm:museum | Northwestern Qatar: Art by Disabled, D/deaf, and Neurodiverse Artists: Challenges and Opportunities in Inclusive Curating [institutional leadership]

Monday 23 Feb 2026, 3:00 PM – 5:00 PM
IKT Webinar Art by Disabled, D/deaf, and Neurodiverse Artists: Challenges and Opportunities in Inclusive Curating Disabled, D/deaf, and neurodiverse artists have increasingly challenged historical barriers to participation in the art world, leading to greater mainstream recognition of their work. For example, the Turner Prize was recently awarded to Nnena Kalu, a practitioner supported by ActionSpace in London. In addition, MIMA in England organised ‘Towards New Worlds’, an exhibition featuring fifteen practitioners selected by Aidan Moesby, who previously collaborated with the institution through DASH’s Future Curators Programme. In Ireland, Sirius Arts Centre produced a retrospective of Fergus Fitzgerald, affiliated with KCAT Arts Centre. The Museum of Modern Art in New York staged a presentation by Marlon Mullen, an artist based at NIAD Art Center. These developments have prompted curators to reconsider traditional definitions of art and to explore innovative ways to engage with disabled, D/deaf, and neurodiverse artists.

Details of Exhibition

This webinar brings together leading curators and artists from the United Kingdom and Ireland, including Elinor Morgan, Aidan Moesby, and Róisín Power Hackett, all of whom are engaged in current debates concerning art by disabled, D/deaf, and neurodiverse artists in their respective countries. The speakers discuss the intellectual frameworks and methodologies used to organise exhibitions and events, as well as the institutional and practical challenges encountered.

The webinar provides knowledge and skills in institutional and narrative development, preparing attendees to collaborate effectively with disabled, D/deaf, and neurodiverse artists. It seeks to address gaps in expertise and capacity at both personal and institutional levels, thereby expanding attendees’ ability to create environments in which the voices of disabled, D/deaf, and neurodiverse artists are adequately and fully heard.
