My third activity I have chosen to visit is the ‘Subversive
Design’ exhibition being held at the Brighton Museum and art gallery from 12 October
2013 to 9th march 2014.
As an exhibition that ‘subverts your preconceptions and
challenges your relationship with objects you use on a daily basis’ I think
that this is an opportunity that I would kick myself over if lost. It’s a
perfect chance to see how these designers and artists have thought ‘outside the
box’ to create the artwork on show which can only help me progress in my own
practice. A personal target for myself is to always try and push, if not, break
the boundaries, to extend past what is expected and I think this Exhibition is
a superb way of aiding me in this challenge. I am excited to see how exactly
the designers and craftsmen
on show, such as Alexander McQueen, have tackled the idea of changing perceptions and preconceptions,
taking the everyday and manipulating it in such a way.
I am very giddy about
this one, I haven’t really much idea of what things are going to be like, and I
have never really focused in on design and craftsmen element of art yet before,
so this too will be a great way of expanding my subject area knowledge which
will only do me justice.
The admission cost
for this exhibition is a modest £6 for adults, concession and disabled £4, B&H
residents being free and children under the age of 15 go free.
I shall report back
with thoughts, reflections and a review of the exhibition once visited.
I am quite
buzzing :)
