Conclusion

        Organizing an exhibition of works from various artists, is in fact, a bit challenging. As a curator, I have to make sure that each piece of work ties in with the theme and the other works as well. The artists should not come up in the class textbook, in order for me to be able to add them into this exhibition. Each piece of work must be studied and seeing in different perspectives, to understanding its full meaning of decision based on the artist to create it. Choosing a name and them for the exhibition was indeed easy, as I had an idea in my head as in what I wanted to include, which meant that finding works to go by my theme was becoming a natural search to find. Unfortunately, finding the requirements for each work was not as easy as I thought. Some works did not have the specified date or did not include the media in which the artist used, making me search for a work that did include the requirements specified.

      The job of a curator, in my opinion, can be stressful at times. You have your specified works that would wish to add but from lack of required information you must search for another. Figuring out in what order to place the works, is a job on its own and requires thoughtful thinking. Connecting various works of art, that can bring back certain individual experiences or thoughts,with the theme can become a curator's most rewarding experience, for the curator is and can at times tell a story with the works.
