UNIQUE EXHIBITION LOCATION

One of the extensive key developments of contemporary art is the merging of art with the environment such as public art and installation art. The environment, which encompasses a wide variety of spaces and places, both private and public, has become an important element of consideration during the decision making process in creating an artwork.

Careful selection of a specific space for each artwork is needed because the location of choice is crucial in defining the context/meaning that are being projected by a particular artwork. For this exhibition, where the given location is unique due to its nature of being a public area in a private setting, there are many ways in presenting an artwork in the school compound to elicit interaction from the crowd — it can be displayed on the wall, floor, corridor, ceiling, or installed in an open space, etc; it can also be projected (video clips, images), played (sound installation) or performed to a live audience. 

In this exhibition, artists are strongly encouraged to exhibit their art works in both interior and exterior space of the school compound. Saying so, primary and secondary locations have been identified for potential art spaces as below :
