Situations: A combined model of research and commissioning as a method of unknowing place

Doherty, Claire

Abstract

This paper presented at Situations is a model of commissioning and research programme through an analysis of its projects and events as responsive to a notion of situation, rather than site, to unknowing rather than knowing a place. These projects, it was argued, revealed displacements, interruptions and interventions which allow for new readings of place, reflecting the most dynamic and significant of contemporary art practices.
