Giselle’s Remix: Part Two

December 7, 2012 by The Clark

Hi everyone! Just about two weeks ago, my exhibition, “Giselle’s Remix,” opened at the Clark! Since that was my first time seeing my exhibit in real life, it was very exciting! When I walked upstairs to see it, I was amazed at how well the Clark had put it together. Everything was right where I wanted it to be, and the room looked fantastic! The blue wall color was so nice, and the paintings looked really good together. The whole day was wonderful, and the Clark uCurate team let me do so many things I never dreamed about doing, like talking to the press and speaking on a panel. I loved getting interviewed for newspapers, and my talk in the auditorium was so much fun! Seeing the billboards advertising the exhibit on our drive up was just as exciting!

Getting feedback from everyone at the opening was really helpful, and it put me in an even better mood than I was in before. Watching people look at my exhibit made me feel amazing, and when people came up to me, I was so happy. It made me realize that everyone interprets the paintings and the pieces I selected in their own ways. One woman, for example, came up to me and said, “I love all of the French art that you put in your exhibit, because I love French art, too.” I guess I do like French art, but I certainly never thought about my exhibit that way!

I can’t wait to bring my friends to Williamstown to see the exhibit over winter break. I hope that they’ll like it and maybe even “curate” a room of their own during the visit.

    Gigi, I saw your exhibit yesterday and wanted to tell you how impressed I was with both your choices for the exhibit and your comments,and the reasons for your choices. As a docent for the Winslow Homer studio in Maine, I particularly loved how you captured the essence of many of his paintings (man vs. nature, solitary life). Your comments on the audio were astute and reflective. Your description of Degas’ horse and its movement was spot on.While art works may have different meaning to different people, I was so impressed with the depth of your understanding and with your poise and how articulate you are. I really enjoyed your exhibition and wanted to say: Great job.
