Glasgow International Festival of Contemporary Art

This show may change

This show may change was a collaborative group show examining the way we view and interact with artworks in an exhibition context. It discussed and inherently critiqued the sometimes stagnant and presumptuous nature of how shows are curated and installed.

Not sticking to any particular visual style, the artists presented a cross-disciplinary non-hierarchical archive of all works, sketches, attempts and failures made in the lead up to the festival. Works are hung and rehung, rotated on a regular basis, and replaced in order to create a liquid exhibition archive; every visit will provide a new experience.

in this way, the artist offered an accessible, playful and fluid look at the idea of an instant archive. This encompassed collaborative sculpture, interactive takeaways and guides, one-off events and workshops throughout the duration of the festival, alongside the built-up archive consisting of the past six months.
