YCN; Exhibition spaces.





I looked at some exhibition spaces on google images so we could get an idea of how the space should be laid out. We wanted to know whether the minimalistic approach was better or whether the space needed to be more crowded to showcase everything possible. From the photos I've found it seems that colour in terms of the walls of the space is kept to a minimum and this is so the artworks have the maximum impact. The central space of an exhibition is usually quite empty or sometimes has these free standing walls. On a personal level i'm not sure about the big open spaces because I feel that all the empty space in the middle may drown the work. The difference between all these spaces i've researched into and our own is that we want our guests to be able to interact with the work, where as this is not the norm within galleries etc. This could mean that we could bring about a whole new idea for exhibition spaces because its already out of the ordinary, we could be qutie experimental.
