ROLE OF DESIGN

Let the art speak by itself;

Less design oriented;

Design concentrated in details wall colors;

captions; texts on wall;

frames.

Very design oriented; Design tells the story;

ARCHITECTURE

Artwork “face” of the exhibition is distinguished at the entrance;

Exhibition starts very suddenly, even “spills out” of the room ‒ overwhelming;

ARCHITECTURE

Right direction not clearly defined by the design; Exit and entrance next to each other, but cannot be mistaken;

ARCHITECTURE

The only major design intervention is the use of colors, which define different subject areas within the timeline ‒ not

always successful;

Creation of an environment;

ARCHITECTURE

Choice of colors: burgundy for classical portraits (mimic traditional art);

Great choice of materials and textures;

MoMA MoCA

dark grey for movie characters;

ARCHITECTURE

Choice of colors: green for high society women;

Great use of translucent materials as opposed to plaster walls;

MoMA MoCA

light grey to contrast w/ B&W pictures;

Page 13: Moca | Moma

ARCHITECTURE

Contrasting colors ‒ bright green makes you think that room is more special ‒ draws people's attention ‒ other colors used

are more washed out;

Recurrent themes (clowns);

Room dedicated to movies also has a dark wall color;

MoMA MoCA

Cohesive style throughout the exhibition;

ARCHITECTURE

Could use more sitting;

No sitting, but didn’t miss it;

LIGHTING

Overall bright, no spotlights;

Rooms with darker colors contrasted with the whiter ones;

Too much reflection on the glass ‒ would see ourselves instead of the pictures;

Overall dark with spots of light to draw your attention; Soft light boxes ‒ draws attention to the text; Pictures and movies on translucent materials;

IMPROVEMENTS

Not clear about direction to go or where to enter (multiple path);

Wish to see more behind scenes (props,

studio visit, more about her);

Wish to see her do her makeup, process and her technique;

Exhibition starts before you enter,  all of a sudden and overwhelming ‒ there should be a transition space.
