Welcome to the Exhibition BLOG

As part of our curatorial studies in the Fall 2008 Museum and Gallery Practices class, we discuss and debate how to create dialog and community among artists, curators and viewers in the context of an art exhibition.

Among the many methods we will implement for this exhibition, we also selected to BLOG. Here our collective myriad of experiences as viewers, students, artists, curators, professors, and museum professionals can be explored, connected, examined and—perhaps most importantly—contributed.

This allows for a more open and explicit form of communication than permitted by most art exhibitions. While there are always numerous ideas, interpretations, and inquiries lurking implicitly in exhibitions, here we invite you to make these musings revealed.

We hope that you will choose to experience the exhibition and then participate in the conversation. What are your experiences with the art, exhibition, travel, Italy? What questions do you have about certain images or artistic processes? What do you wonder about the installation itself?

Go ahead. Ask and chat away.
