Continuing their Making Space art programme, Apt Architects presents
A MUSE UM, by the collaborative artist duo, Langlands & Bell. Making Space is curated by Jonathan Watkins, and this second show follows on from an exhibition of eleven works by Richard Deacon.
Langlands & Bell have worked together since they met at art school in the late 1970s, and are known for exploring the coded systems of communication that impact our relationships. A MUSE UM is concerned with something close to the pair’s personal experiences in the art world: the nature of collecting and the presentation of art.
Through digital prints, computer animation and sculpture, the show Apt dissects the ways in which art museums brand themselves, exposing certain formulas that reveal more about the mindset of institutions and how they shape our responses to gallery and museum settings. A riveting and timely topic – be sure to make an appointment to view.
