The sorting act: Endless ways of organizing the Architecture Collections
Next October 13th, the exhibition ‘The sorting Act: Endless ways of organizing the Architecture Collections’ will open its doors in the Oostserre. Organised by BK-Expo, the show will display a variety of models from the Architecture Collections. These models ‘form a record of educational activities in the past, but also a new source of inspiration and of information for the education and research of the present, both within and outside of our faculty’.
The exhibition, along with highlighting the enormous value of the Collections, aims at underlining the importance of the myriad ways in which information can be displayed. What should be the driver for the selection and organization of material? How to distribute the models in the Oostserre in an ‘orderly’ manner? From A to Z? Chronologically? By size? By color?...
‘The sorting act: Endless ways of organizing the Architecture Collections’ is a -modest- invitation to explore new paths for curatorial approaches.
The exhibition is on show from 13 October - 30 November in the Oostserre.
