The Exhibition-as-

On 22nd Nov artist, curator and theorist Dr. Paul O’Neill will be in conversation with Edwin and me, talking about The Museum of Loss and Renewal, in Centrespace, VRC.

In the meantime, and in relation to your proposed collective exhibition, have a look at this:

"The Exhibition-as-Medium, the Exhibition-as-form: Three Principal Categories of Organisation: the Background, the Middle-ground and the Foreground

The group exhibition-form has become the primary site for curatorial experimentation and, as such, represents a relatively new discursive space around artistic practice. Paul O'Neill will describe how cumulative and expanding exhibition-forms can constitute an investigation into how the curatorial role is made manifest, through cohesive and co-operative exhibition-making structures applied through close involvement with artists during all stages of the exhibition production. This lecture will look at how a series of exhibitions create spatial relations between different planes of interaction for the viewer, and how three spatial categories of organisation upon which the group exhibitions can represent this in the final exhibition-form."
