build your own - walls separate artists
one artist didn't like work on yellow walls
people write the text and ok'd by curators
or curator writes
chose the ones they needed to put in
mix of eras, mix of styles
consider audience
gallery - work already existed, build your own - work was commissioned specially for exhibition
our purpose for work is to continue our practice, only concern is what it means not politically or as part of a showcase (necessarily)
space is interchangeable - desks in the space
language of objects, relationship between objects
in domestic setting - looks at society and how it changes how we want to look
framing of it has been changed - elevated shown in a different way to make them more than the everyday
the artefact itself links them together
the thing that threads them through together doesn't. have to be complicated
manipulating faces
mirrors - reflect on themselves
the unknown of looking at yourself in the mirror, not really you just a projection of yourself
tony oursler - human unhuman
having more people And narrowing down
Craig morholland
bateye
Albert ohleln
does the work consider the space and what the space was about
have to get permission to use certain spaces
Grayson Perry - house
different ways you can use space
shown things from galleries that weren't worthy of showing, at some point in time rejected for some reason or another
why things are rejected - deemed for censorship
edited as an act of curation
disowned because of their ethnicity
edited has been consider in relation to the exhibition
specifically western art work, kind of truth within the exhibition filter off all of the things that it isn't
50th Venice biennale conflict of dictatorship of the viewer overall curator and organiser
each curate own little bit of it
way people's dreams and aspirations relate to conflict
documenta- degenerate art work nazi German - not good. reviving this so called degenerate art work - many different locations, central curator has lots of curators
big exhibitions
Michael craig Martin - freeze ybac - Damien Hirst
60s concept art on the rise - needed people to tell us what it's about - they became the curators
can no longer concern the art object with the real object the death of art
do it - sending out instructions to different locations
the readymade
Ica in London - quick turn around,60 exhibitions in 6 months. difference between collaboration and curation - dialogue with other artists to collaborate, different to inviting artists to present in a space
arts council
different levels of funding / small bid 15,000 or less
arts council touring shows
arts council England
open an account with them and fill out a form
things they like to have in exhibitions
know your costs
don't go into pence, just to the pound. not applying for 15,000 as can tell you have not costed it out
learn who local contact is for local area - say hello ask for advice make contact with them before bidding process
description of activity - public event, exhibition, performance
who else is involved
want to ensure good quality
right type of artists are involved
ask for back up information - CV, proposal
carefully considering things, track record for delivering things
who will benefit from your activity, have on record visitor numbers, demographic of people, good info to have and work around, no of people benefitting - audience, artists.- publication - audience benefits, more people have publication even if didn't go to exhibition
new commissions? ethnicity of the people involved.
public engagement - if getting money from
tax payer have to go activity and give back to community
activities often involve creating in the style of another artist
public engagement important to raise awareness of contemporary art
finance important
artists fees - don't have to work for free
don't expect you to work for free - trying to get income from elsewhere - they advertise the show not paying you money but giving you a service, text on the walls, catalogues payments in kind, the more you can get from somewhere else the more arts council will like it
getting things for cheaper, know people - funding from elsewhere
could apply for funding from other locations - trusts, foundations
