You had to be there: contemporary art, craft and the audience

这个项目解决了观众和当代艺术和手工艺的问题，特别是在澳大利亚地区。它在为公共画廊开发编程、展示和解释当代作品的模式方面开辟了新的天地。将在包括媒体研究、叙事和视觉文化理论在内的跨学科理论基础上，制定广泛的受众研究框架和创新的口译战略。该项目将持续三年，各种媒体，包括手工艺、数字媒体和装置，以及分散的展览场地；将与项目合作伙伴一起编制文件和传播成果，以满足特定的行业发展需求。

This project addresses issues of audiences and contemporary art and craft,particularly in regional Australia. It breaks new ground in developing models for public galleries in programming, presenting and interpreting contemporary work. A broad audience research framework will be developed as well as innovative strategies for interpretation, drawing on an interdisciplinary theoretical basis which includes media studies, narrative and visual culture theory. The project will run over three years, a variety of media, including craft, digital media and installation, and dispersed exhibition sites; documentation and dissemination of outcomes, to be developed with the project partners, will address specific industry development needs.
