| book description |

â€˜The artwork is no longer the integral part of the exhibition; to curate an exhibition is to curate an experience.â€™ Bridging the gap between curatorial practices and spatial display methods, this book considers the impact of exhibition design not only on the material structure of the exhibition but also on its narrative potential. Exhibition Mattersâ€”an international collection of writings from academics and practitionersâ€”explores this relationship between materiality and narrative, considering the contradictions inherent in exhibition design as strengths rather than limitations of a hybrid discipline. Exploring various devices and approaches to spatial dramaturgy (including exhibiting nature and the more-than-human, the multi-disciplinarity of the design process, and pioneering decolonial narratives) alongside innovative ways of studying them, each chapter shows how to move beyond traditional boundaries of exhibition design and elevate the discipline to an art form in itself. With case studies from Brazil to Italy, Turkey to the USA, this volume provides real-life examples and theoretical reflections on art, architecture and design, thus providing an interdisciplinary and accessible work â€“ ideal for exhibition designers and curators, interior architects, and all those looking to construct spatial narratives beyond the sum of their parts.
