Exhibition from class.

At our school. students are required to take 18 credits of history classes.
I took, 6 credits of first year requirement of art history- ancient, modern.
Than I took Chinese art, Art and Design between World War, 20th Century Fashion, Japan Study trip.

Well... about study trip i will talk about from next time....

But anway.. and one of my history class, as final, we did exhibition. But we had choice of not do do it. But if you don't do it, you had to do the presentation about a designer of that time. Oh this was the 20th century fashion class, taught by Gillion.

Well.. I decided to do the exhibition, because it is certainly good to have a experience of curate the exhibition as an art student.

at this exhibition i learn how to curate the exhibition and necessary things to know when you curate an exhibition.
During this exhibition, my job was get the lights and sounds that will give the most effective affects for this exhibition.
our theme was future fashion in order to survive from harsh environment.

we got all the works from out side of class. we let people know that we are planing to have a exhibition, and whoever has a work that is relate to this exhibition and willing to
participate to this exhibition to submit the works to us.

Than we selected art works that related to us. Than our set up team figured out where to exhibit. and my team and I figure out how to light them with out distracting other works and show the best look of the work.

From this process I learn this is not an easy work. in order to show the works individually well, we need to think where to put what and how we light.
Since after this, whenever look at exhibition, I look at how they do the lighting and how they set up.
I think if there is any one interested about exhibition working, this might be a good class for them,
