Synopsis:

Size Matters: A Question of Scale discusses one of the issues most central to the making and reception of art: size. In considering art, the term scale plays a fundamental role as it is the size of an art object in relation to another object. Scale thus highlights the capacity of the artwork to respond to a specific location and place, while also calling into question the role of the viewer. Scale opens up questions of agency in ways that compel reconsideration of what it means to be involved in the creation, circulation, and reception of visual art. Scale requires that viewers regard size as a crucial aspect that enables a material and physical entity to function convincingly as an artwork.

How does one think about size as internal to form, or, for that matter, how it frames the artwork as a function of responses between meaning and materiality? In short, scale forces viewers to rethink the artwork in the most visceral terms possible.
