Installing Exhibitions by Pete Smithson

Installing Exhibitions is an invaluable guide for all students, artists, makers and craftspeople - anyone in fact who exhibits or displays their own work, or the work of others. It is a practical resource incorporating everything you need to know about setting up your work for display, from preparing the space, to risk assessment and health and safety concerns, fixings, moving and placing work, two- and three-dimensional work and audiovisual displays. The book also includes information about electrics, lighting, and cable management, rigging, and basic construction, as well as tools and materials and the basic kit you will need to get started.
'Anyone involved in mounting an exhibition that isn't professionally hung should have this bookNot only will your exhibition look better, it'll be better.' www.artbookreview.co.uk (July 2009)
