Though for me the exhibition was kind of well banal in its themes some of the art work and the setting was fantastic.
I loved the fact they had left the prison in the way it was before it closed. Graffiti was everywhere and was some what sad when you realise that it was made by the last occupants, young offenders.
The artwork I found most effective was that of the work you came seemed to stumble across such as this
It really gives me ideas on how presentation of the surrounding area in performance is also key to the actual performance or artwork.
I loved the concepts of Robert Gobers work but felt that parts of it were un needed there was a falseness to the work that reminded me of a theme park ride.
I have though been able to come away looking at the sight in context and really being able to gain some encouragement to how i can move forward with exhibiting in the future. whether i like the exhibition or not it really does have a atmosphere that you could not re produce elsewhere. bellow are some more images of the exhibition.
