Transmission Gallery

Transmission’s presentation for Glasgow International 2012 was an experiment in interpretation which reflects critically upon the ways in which value is assigned, accumulated and circulated. ‘Six works of art for your interpretation’ establishes a scenario where the provenance of an artwork is demoted to make space for more irreverent interpretations.
