Photos of People in Galleries

Thinking of the interaction in galleries, how people interpret space as a spectator. 
- What impact does this have on the art? 
- Does how you experience it make you see it differently? 
- People are more interactive with contemporary work, than traditional, can tell by the way they stand. People look and investigate contemporary works more, I think, as it's less obvious what they're about when you first look at them. 

















Thinking about this as a photography series.
- Does it work?
- Why am I doing it?
- Who am I doing it for?

Feel like there could be an interesting way of presenting this information.
Since I can't go out and organise a shoot in a gallery for this how could I manipulate existing images? Ask friends and family for their photos, looks through photo albums find materials this way?

Could develop a set of prompts for looking around a gallery?
- The people become a piece of performance art?
- Could this be expanded to other things?
- Perhaps a publication could be made to go with an exhibition. It could provide prompts to those attending the gallery making it an overall interactive experience (thinking back to the Rodina works).
