This lecture talks about the gallery as a social space.
I want to use the gallery space to document a scoial change within my own experience; the encounters with avante garde and. Art outside the gallery documented within the exhibition.

"capitalism depends upon an idea of the privetised individual consumer, leading to an interest in producing works of art that emphasise our status as or social or collective subjects"
