Interim Exhibition

I recently visited the exhibition called "Interim" at Vernon Street. We had been given the brochure for the event beforehand and it was very professional. I think that it could be expensive to print that many professional brochures for our event which is why I think it is a cheaper and more efficient to have a website which links to our own pages.

Unfortunatly I didn't particually enjoy the Interim exhibition. I did like a video which was showing in the lecture theatre of a guy painting the lecture theatre black and then white again, it was pretty mind numbing but kept you hooked. The invoice for the work he had done which he had sent to the college was displayed also. I actually took down the artist's e-mail address off the invoice and thought I could add him to the list of people to send the invite to. The more the merrier afterall.

The large amount of steps and echoey rooms seemed to ruin the exhibiton a little bit. I don't think it is a great space for sound pieces because there are too many distractions from it in a nosy, echoey stairway. It is a good spot for 2D pieces and the space is set up to accomodate for that kind of thing.

I saw a performance piece of two twins attached to a rope and when one pulls...the other gets pushed backwards and they were trying to paint a piece of paper different colours. It was rather odd, but then, I never do understand these performance things. I was trying to decide if the actual performance or the piece of painted paper was the actual final piece. The space wasn't very good for a performance, it was so crowded not that many people could fit in that tiny spot, so I guess the painted piece of paper is all that most people would get to see of the whole thing, but does that make it the final piece?
