Week 8 Studio: Bench time — provenance groundwork
A second open bench-time studio, starting the research and materials gathering the final project's provenance file will need.
16 September 2027
Before the session#
Come with a working idea for the final project’s subject — the object, style or artefact “Provenance” will be built around.
In the session#
Open bench time again, but aimed forward this time: rather than continuing Assignment 1 work, the studio is for starting the research a convincing provenance file needs — real gallery catalogues, real auction records, real period documents to model the forged ones on. Anselm and the tutorial group are available for direction, not demonstration, this week.
Afterwards#
Nothing due yet, but a final project started this week has noticeably more room to develop than one started in week 11.
The spec
What you bring to the session. Written so a reader can tell whether it has been met without asking you.
- you can name the object or style your final project will centre on
- you have started gathering at least one real reference source for its provenance file
