Exhibition Diary: Day 1 - the set up

Would-be curators might find it a bit of a shock to be up a ladder trying to work out how to attach something to the wall or with a paint brush in hand tackling a Victorian warehouse wall, that just doesn't seem to want to be painted. But unfortunately there aren't little exhibition elves who come and set up for you exactly as you've planned....curating is not just about research and the logic of an exhibition, its realisation as well. So undaunted the Looking Twice team arrived in the Collective yesterday armed with paint brushes, gaffer tape and fishing wire a plenty.

Here's a sneak preview of how we're getting on!



 Painting the wall that seems to repel paint!

 Our pride and joy- the curtains!
Fabiola, May, Giulia, Fabiana and Emma with the last curtain.

If you want to see the fruits of our labour come down to Collective Gallery, Camden High Street (Mornington Crescent end) between Sunday and Wednesday (12-7 apart from Tues 12-6) !
