Rivet is triggered by what emerges from artistic production, but operates in an expanded curatorial field that includes publications, translation, teaching, and exhibition-making. Developing long-term collaborations with artists, and providing a platform from which to stimulate curatorial exchange and discussion, Rivet's current and upcoming projects are influenced by the post-subject turn in philosophy. Bringing insights and questions from current philosophy and science studies to the field of art and aesthetics, Rivet has organized a series of closed-door reading group discussions on Speculative Realism at ICI throughout Spring 2012.
