Exhibit Space can be an Art Form in itself.
Exhibit spaces are charged with beauty of the art works and also of their own. Though not all can be as spacious as National Museums, there is possibility for any pocket of space to be beautified, turning into conducive platform for display of Arts.
i enjoy this challenge of turning common public places into exhibit space.
