Museums, Galleries, Exhibitions: Unpacking the Field II Title: How do non-linear exhibitions (flea-market style museum exhibitions) reflect Jean-François Lyotard’s understanding of our post-modern world? What do these exhibitions say about our contemporary sense of history and how do they differ from thematic and/or authored exhibitions that have clearly defined exhibition routes?

2. – Taking as starting point Jean-François Lyotard’s exhibition, Les Immateriaux (Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris, 1985), then explore, how, after photography, technology and new media continues to impact the museum. We will also question whether or not visual culture can occasionally escape the kinds of orderly sense that, museums, art history and theory impose onto it
