Theory 2 session - Installing an Exhibition of Contemporary Sculpture
Some of us missed this session with Ed because of the tube strike - boo!
It was really fun (Ed's slideshow below). Some of us clearly missed our vocation as architects...
Two groups took the exhibition theme of the human body in sculpture, one group took the theme of everyday objects in sculpture.
Installing an Exhibition of Contemporary Sculpture
Aims:
To gain a clearer understanding of how to put on an exhibition with other group members, and to increase awareness of the relationship between different work and to the exhibition space itself.
Objectives:
1. Construct a mock exhibition space
Choose a selection of contemporary sculptures to install within the space
Negotiate with other group members to mount the exhibition
Present the exhibition mock up to the group
The Task:
1. Construct a gallery space using foamboard and Bluetack (Be creative)
2. Choose a selection of contemporary sculptures that fit into your given theme.
3. Make basic versions of the sculptures and insert them into the Gallery Space using plasticine, card, e.t.c.
4. Situate the sculptures within the gallery space giving consideration to how the sculptures relate to each other and to the space around them
5. Present your mock exhibition back to the group with
a) An explanation of why you situated each sculpture where you have
b) A brief description of the work and the idea behind it
Sculpture fans - points for spotting the following...
