Hotel Yeoville
Wed 29 June, 6pm
Iwalewa-Haus, University of Bayreuth, Germany
Presentation by Alexander Opper (University of Johannesburg & Notion Architects)
Hotel Yeoville is a participatory public art project. The exhibition leg of the project was preceded by an intense research phase, begun in 2007 and headed by artist Terry Kurgan, the project’s founder. Between 2009 and 2010 the hotelyeoville.co.za website was developed and transformed into a physical exhibition space. The public launch of the exhibition took place in May 2010. This presentation will focus on the specific role of Notion Architects, as designers and collaborators on the exhibition phase of the project.
