Summary
"Exhibition Design features examples of a wide variety of exhibitions from around the world, from major trade and commerce fairs, to well-known fine art institutions, to small-scale artist-designed displays. The introduction gives a historical perspective on the development of exhibitions and museums, with particular focus on the developments of the twentieth century." "The book is divided into two parts: Approaches and Techniques. 'Approaches' contains three chapters devoted to the conceptual themes of narrative space, performative space and simulated experience. 'Techniques' has chapters covering the practical concerns of display, lighting, colour, sound and graphics. To illustrate these themes the book features photographs, drawings and diagrams of exhibitions from around the world, including the work of such internationally renowned architects and designers as Ralph Appelbaum Associates, Atelier Bruckner, Casson Mann, Frank Gehry, Zaha Hadid, Imagination, METStudio and Jean Nouvel."--Jacket.
