This was the first of our briefings in which we are being asked to analyse different dynamics of audience and community in relation to our own individivual practice. We need to explore strategies for interfacing, intervention, consultation, performance and social engagement to develop an audience for our work. Engaging with different dynamics of audience, public and community in Fine Art practice.

"Since the happenings of the 1960's audience has become increasingley predominant in Fine Art Practice. The theme of audience is very current, contemporary work is often judged using a relational aesthetic. (Judging artworks on the basis of the inter-human relations they embody, produce or prompt)"

It was interesting evaulating in detail the questions "What is an exhibition?" and "Who has the Power?".

I began thinking about issues raised within the breifing such as the dynamics of an exhibition, the publics attitude towards artists, the layout referencing certain shows e.g motorshows, the engagement of the space such as the objects within: plinths, shelves cases, cabinets, the domination of the space, audiences as gender specific, art galleries and the connection to honourfic value, aswell as the debate over whether artists have a right to engage with an audience particularly when its something emotional, fixtures and fittings and art as a piece of communication of social engagement.
