The Library of Babel / In and Out of Place addresses the production of meaning and our many modes of perception. The exhibition avoids imposing any final meaning on the works shown. Instead, it invites you to discover connections between works and to forge your own interpretations, exceeding received wisdom about particular art works, styles or artists. The salon-style hang in the former Methodist chapel creates an overwhelming environment and invites a more detailed consideration of individual artworks.
We have organised Tours and Salons which are listed below but also invite you to take your own perspective on the show and organise your own tour, public or private, of the exhibition. Just ask at the front desk if you would like more information.
On Thursdays and Fridays a member of staff will be on call to give you a wandering tour of the show - this tour will take their personal and subjective view of the exhibition. Please ask when you arrive for more information, or email us to book: info@projectspace176.com.
