Exhibition review

Order Description Imagine that you are a critic for a local newspaper with an educated but non-specialist audience. You have been asked to write a 1,200 to 1,500 word review of the exhibit, Kate Terry: Suspended Space, which is now on view at the Broad Art Museum. Your task is to inform a would-be audience about the exhibition and to provide some context for it. To achieve this, you need both to describe AND critique the exhibit and its rationale. Critics tend to write from their own backgrounds, so feel free to bring in things you have learned in class, from your own readings, or from your own personal history. What are your initial impressions? Be very conscious of your own reactions to the display. Questions to help you get started: 1. Be conscious of your personal, social, and physical experience in visiting the exhibit. How do you feel in the exhibition? What is the role of your surroundings in your experience? 2. How has the work been installed? Notice things like placement, spacing, and lighting. 3. Is learning an important part of the exhibition experience? How did you learn? How would you evaluate the labels, wall text, or other materials available elsewhere in the museum? Do these represent the best way to provide such information? What other alternatives might there be? Would you provide other kinds of materials in other formats? 4. How does the work fit into the larger story of Minimalism in art? You should read the section on Minimalism in your textbook, pg. 1096-1097, before writing up your review.
