Description
Storytelling Exhibitions describes the role and practice of modern ‘spatial storytellers’ and looks at the potential of exhibitions to shape our understanding of the world. It explains how curators, designers, artists and scientists combine to tell powerful stories through exhibition design.
Exhibition designer and educator Philip Hughes shows how contemporary tools and technologies—digital reconstruction, 3D scanning, and digital archives—interweave with traditional forms of informing, displaying, and promoting to create powerful narrative spaces.
Whether telling stories of politics, trends, society, war, science, or history, Storytelling Exhibitions provides inspiration and guidance on designing installations which change the way we think.
