So, you want to put on an exhibition?
Putting on an exhibition is a great way to bring an audience to see your work or bring several artists together around a common theme. But there’s more to putting on an exhibition than banging a few nails into the wall.
What will you use to pack the artwork?
How will you display the artwork?
What can you do to make the exhibition more sustainable?
This exhibition handbook uses the planning and logistics phase of the exhibition process as its starting point, imagining you already have an indoor venue and a selection of artwork in mind. The handbook will take you through the steps of planning, packing, and installing your exhibition giving you professional advice along the way.
Sustainability is embedded within the exhibition handbook. You might not be able to use every eco-friendly swap that is suggested, and that's ok, but it will get you to consider a more sustainable approach to exhibition-making.
Now, go make yourself a cuppa and grab a notebook; you’ve got an exhibition to plan...
