Exhibition outline All Things Considered brings together artefacts from the studios of sculptors Martyn Chalk, Philip Evans, and Richard Hollinshead. The exhibition can be seen as part of a continuing trend towards the placement of the 'finished' artwork within some kind of framework, and the growing conception of the gallery exhibition as merely the public face of ongoing research. Source material, maquettes, unfinished projects, drawings and small works will be displayed in a non-hierarchical manner on shelving and plinths, allowing access to the cross-pollination of ideas, materials, and processes that occurs in the studio "laboratory". The exhibition attempts to trace visually the evolution of each artist's studio practice, and in doing so will highlight underlying concerns and common ground. As with exhibitions such as the Henry Moore Institute's Survivals From A Sculptor's Studio, All Things Considered takes as its starting point the belief that the studio practice through which artworks are developed offers an insight at least as valuable as the traditional practice of exhibiting resolved artworks.
