Curatorial Sketches

 After a phone call with creative director Warren, we discussed that it would be a good idea if we were to sketch out our ideas for the curation of the exhibition. Whilst these aren't the neatest sketches and contain notes, I found them an effective way to communicate our visions for the exhibition and imagine any issues/questions more clearly.

These sketches were done on the 3rd November and I think it will be interesting to compare the sketches myself and Warren do along the way as the exhibition evolves.

FOH exhibition updates

 Here is a small list of updates that creative director, Warren, delivered after having spoken to the venue manager... - The triangular flooring must be taken up, however Warren's dad is prepared to make us something similar - We have been offered the use of a small unit which has shelves etc for the exhibition - We are not able to have a partition wall against the back of the bookcases, however we are able to use the back of the bookcases - We may be allowed a partition wall beneath the stairs - We definitely have the use of at least one glass case which will show Rosalyn's portfolio - We may not have access to the white wall at the back of the venue which we were thinking of using for a gallery wall.

Curatorial sketches - Figuring alternatives to the gallery wall

Image
 As previously mentioned, there is the possibility that we might not have access to the back wall in the exhibition space of the Library. In this case, it's important that we think of possible alternatives should this happen. We think it's necessary to continue to have photographs of the workshop should the gallery wall not be available in the location we had expected it. We would like the attendants of the workshops, and therefore contributors to the exhibition, to have a space where photographs of their work can be seen. I have sketched 2 ideas that I think would make good alternatives. Both ideas do have pros and cons which will be discussed below. Warren has also created some digital mock-ups of alternatives to the gallery wall being at the back of the exhibition space. I will discuss these below. In this idea, the mannequins are stood in a staggered fashion around a partition wall that has been placed underneath the staircase. The partition wall here has two purposes - to ...
