This is from a text by a Mexican art critic on the role of the curator. It is, I assume, a figurative use, but I don't understand what it is getting at:
Uno de los elementos más perturbadores de la función del curador es que combina de modo casuístico tareas, saberes y poderes que bajo la mentalidad modernista, debieran haber sido ejercidas por gremios independientes y especialistas “objetivos”. En tanto el universo conceptual modernista suponía que las tareas del crítico de arte, historiador, museógrafo, artista, comisario de exhibiciones, connoisseur, restaurador, administrador cultural, , productor de cine, sparring, y activista cultural no podían mezclarse, la curaduría es frecuentemente un Frankenstein ad hoc de esas modalidades
Thanks
