Chapter 4 -Use of exibition space

Yesterday when we visited the Tate gallery in London we encountered and viewed a variety of amazing and interesting art, what was more interesting was the space it was displayed in.

• Surrealism art- Located in a bright white spacious room with works from artists such as Dali and Picasso the relationship i think the space because it is a crisp white colour creates and open mind for such surreal art, it is quite eire walking into a room also which is pure white i think they were trying to achieve that also.The space in the room like i said before was very big small pieces of art had a large amount of space i think this is mainly because they wanted the viewer to be able to focus on the piece of art and nothing else around.

One of the specific things i looked at was a a piece called 'thirty pieces of silver' by Cornelia Parker. The piece was pieces of silver cutlery bonded together hanging from the ceiling. I fund this piece interesting because the use of lighting against the shinny silver was amazing as they had a skylight above where the pieces were hanging from. The room the piece was in was completely separate from the other rooms as it had its own room to be in, which created a lot of space.
