Exhibitions have become the medium through which most art becomes known and assessed. But the art exhibition
is an increasingly critical and unstable category. Constantly reshaped by artists and curators, the exhibition
has become both a prominent and diverse part of contemporary culture. Thinking About Exhibitions presents a multi-disciplinary
anthology of writings on exhibition practice by curators, critics, artists, sociologists and historians from North
America, Europe and Australia. Texts in the collection are grouped in sections which focus on the history of the
exhibition, forms of staging and spectacle, and questions of curatorship, spectatorship and narrative. As well
as critical essays, the anthology includes exhibition proposals, dialogues, position papers, case studies, polemic
articles and interviews.
