How to Install + Title Your Work

In phase one of this workshop you’ll learn the basics of gallery practice and standards for installation including how to prepare, what questions to pose, and who to ask. We’ll go over:

• how to work with restrictions
• ways to set up lighting
• safety considerations

In phase two we’ll consider generative writing practices for titling your work.

Using extension, list making, and concept generation strategies we’ll come up with a plethora of ideas. Then we’ll use composition by excision to narrow them down to concise titles. In the end, we’ll discover the best title for your work and move beyond “untitled.”

Developed in collaboration with the Writing Centre, Libby Leshgold Gallery, Career Development and Work Integrated Learning Office, these workshops and panels offer you the best practices, methods and tools as you prepare for The Show and beyond.
