Learn how the exhibition design for the Dare to Know exhibition was inspired by the neoclassical style and its emphasis on pure geometric forms.
With its emphasis on pure geometric forms, the 18th-century neoclassical artistic style inspired the design of the special exhibition Dare to Know: Prints and Drawings in the Age of Enlightenment. In this tour, exhibition designer Elie Glyn will share why artworks are displayed in a particular manner and why the galleries have been modified to look the way they do. Visitors are invited to consider the effect of these choices on their experience of the exhibition and understanding of the subject matter.
