The idea was to exhibit private work that artists make for themselves, which they wouldn't necessarily intend to show. There was a catalogue with some writings on the topic, if you are interested you can find it at the AAA. http://www.aaa.org.hk/collection_detail.aspx?media_id=3118 I participated in an exhibition called “Restricted Exposures, Private Content – Public View” (1996) which was curated by Lisa Cheung for the Fringe Festival.

]]> Comment on Considerations for what kind of exhibition we will hold. by iris http://ctparasite.wordpress.com/2008/12/09/considerations-for-what-kind-of-exhibition-we-will-hold/#comment-3 iris Wed, 10 Dec 2008 13:29:44 +0000 http://ctparasite.wordpress.com/?p=40#comment-3 I agreed exhibition should be accessible to general public, cos art is about communication, but I doubt the thought of using HK artist as majority, also we should not limit ourselves on using only new work. I think we should see if these criteria fits our themes rather than pre assume certain rules before we confirm our idea. If the idea is good, it should not limit to local artist, new work or old work, or even the commercial value. To me, the success of the show purely based on "is it a good show that inspire people" the rest should be secondary.....
