Lucy McKenzie uses the imposing modernist facade of the museum as an exhibition surface, together with 4 artists
sintesi del comunicato stampa
The Scottish artist Lucy McKenzie has turned the modernist front of the museum into an exhibition, along with Lucile Desamory, Caitlin Keogh, Beca Lipscombe and pelican avenue. Using drawings, flags, photos and display cases they have made the facade into a 'canvas' on which to conjure up the building's original purpose - the exhibition and sale of all sorts of goods. This group project combines visual art with adverts, fashion, decorative motifs and window dressing. The cultural context of consumption, visual communication and stimulating desires, decorating and exhibiting all comes together in a total artwork.
