Learning Outcomes and Application | This unit applies to individuals who explore and develop concepts and ideas for any type of cultural exhibition. It therefore requires well developed creative thinking and research skills, supported by a good knowledge of the collection and interpretive techniques. In larger organisations this role may be undertaken by professional specialists but the unit is relevant to generalists in small museums and galleries, and to individual creative practitioners who may develop exhibition concepts for their own work.Work is carried out autonomously but in consultation and collaboration with others.The unit does not encompass the overall design and development of an exhibition. Those skills are covered in CULMS008A Conceive, develop and realise exhibition designs. | ||
