An art exhibition (or art exhibition) traditionally refers to the time and space where works of art meet an audience ( spectator ). Exposure is generally understood as a temporary period, as opposed to a "permanent exhibition".

Exposure can submit paintings , drawings , photographs , sculptures , installations , videos , sounds , performances of artists or groups of artists or collections of a specific form of art. Works can be exhibited in special institutions ( museums , art center), the galleries private or places whose main destination is neither the presentation nor the belly of art (bar, lobby firm, Town Hall, etc.).. An important distinction exists between exhibitions where works are for sale (gallery), and those where they are not for sale.

History of art exhibitions

The practice of art exhibitions dating back at least to 1673 when the Royal Institution of French artistic patronage, the Royal Academy of Painting and sculpture (a division of the Academy of Fine Arts ), held its first exhibition semi-public art at Exhibition Square. This was the beginning of a particular type of regular exposure where any artist can submit work for exhibition. This type of exposure became important, and often controversial in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, and has strongly stimulated the development of the academic. Thus the study of art history of these centuries can not be done without frequent reference to these exhibitions, which proliferated in all Western nations. The largest exposures were the Paris Motor Show organized by 1725 at the Louvre and London's Royal Academy exhibition (Royal Academy Summer Exhibition) held annually from 1769.

The history of American modern art exhibitions begins on New York in 1913 with the Armory Show , where the avant-garde European was presented for the first time the United States. The Ninth Street art exhibition (9th Street Art Exhibition), May 21 to June 10, 1951 was a landmark exhibition for the opening of new trends , and the presentation of artists of the avant-garde New York (the New York School ).

The international exhibition of contemporary art 's most notable is probably the Documenta in Kassel ( Germany ), organized every five years since 1955, presenting international artists and new trends. To similar effect, the Venice Biennale ( Italy ), organized every two years, this works distributed among the flags of different countries.

Art exhibitions usually start with an opening (or open), open to the general-public or reserved for guests, including the promotion takes place usually through invitations. Many exhibitions are developing catalogs with photographs of works and expert commentary. These catalogs are usually in the form of books, although it may sometimes appear today in the form of a CD-ROM.
