Exhibition, display options

At the moment I am unsure which size to use for my images, it will somewhat depend on the printing quality, the quantity of images and the display option that I choose.


The display I have in my head does not sit on a wall, rather it hangs from the ceiling - i.e an estate agents display window. I believe this sits well with my theme, and is apt for this project. I am torn between size A2 and A3, but this will depend on how many images I will use to exhibit. i.e if I choose to deliver fewer images, I will use the A2 size and vice versa. The advantage of this kind of display, is the fact that both sides can be used - so the piece will be more like an installation hung from the ceiling and not from the wall - where the viewers can walk around the piece:

If I were to have 6 frames, I would need 12 images, whereas if I used 4 A2 frames, I would need 8 images.

Using this kind of display will also depend on the exhibition space and the permissions of their team, there are free-standing units available at a much greater cost.

I have found various cable display shop fittings that will do all kinds of variations and sizing, slightly costly however I feel the results will be completely worth it. Here is one of the places that sell this kind of framing:
