Week 10

Norton Simon Project
What is my role? To create a compliment for the museum that is a comments on the relationship between the Norton Simon and public.

I eavesdropped, listened, took notes on the comments people make when viewing art.
Outcome:
Book–Layers of Perspective
Visualizations of people’s comments
3 sections:
descriptive of the obvious
emotional
outside knowledge or artist/painting–factoids

Layers–
what the museum gives us, what the public gives back

Curating people’s voices.
Where does this exit in the imaginative space?

Project Luke
Working with someone who already has the most of their project done, but issues with one aspect of the project that he needs my help on.

How do you present the artifacts of the project without going into full detail?

Hong G study

How do you curate/paint the memory of a mundane day?

Have Hong G write an itinerary of her day for three days. Choose the most mundane day out of the three to create a set of constraints and clues for her to paint from for 5 days. These paintings should reflect the process of recollecting the Artist’s memory of a mundane day.

Question:

Why am I assuming these different roles as “curator”? What is the meaning behind all of this? How can I diagram where I exist within the public and space? And what is my interaction? Am I complicating, adding, subtracting or intervening to the interaction?
