ALTERNATIVE EXHIBITION SPACES. MULTI-CRITERIA METHOD OF COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS

Abstract

The aim of this article is to make a multi-criteria analysis of various exhibition spaces of an originally non-exhibition character and to determine how these spaces affect the selection of works and the exhibition concept. The analysis is based on the exhibitions of art objects at collective exhibitions in unconventional architectural spaces: commercial, post-industrial and in the historic interior. The multi-criteria comparative analysis shows a variety of features of the studied spaces as well as the relationship between architecture and art and their mutual interaction, and the participatory role of the non-exhibition space in the process of creating an exhibition and selecting works has been proven.
