The use of exhibition space to create meaning

The use of exhibition space to create meaning, the use of exhibition space when creating meaning is very important due to the atmosphere the art exoduses' whether its a quite and relaxed concept or a hyped up and enthusiastic concept, changes dramatically to the people and environment where the artwork is situated, for example Robert Therriens' Table and four chairs sets the perfect example of how exhibition space creates meaning, I noticed that when in the gallery, the audience seemed very relaxed and intrigued by that particularly piece of art work. Many variables can be seen that act upon the context/concept the art is viewed in, and the statement that the art exodus for example:
- size of the room
- colour of the room
- amount of noise and distractions within the
- number of other people in the room
- amount of other pieces of art in the room
In the gallery art will be protected and covered which gives the impression that its worth a lot and that it is extremely important on the other hand if a piece of art work was exhibited on the street the art wouldn't be as appreciated if situated in a gallery where art is appreciated and treasured.
