Pamela Hatchfield
Pamela Hatchfield’s project explores issues of conservation and preservation raised by the installation of contemporary works within the context of preexisting historical architectural settings. The result of this project will be a book designed to assist conservators, curators, and other professionals in navigating the physical and philosophical challenges of installing contemporary work in historical settings. Artists Using Architecture stems in part from Hatchfield’s involvement in the Exposition La Beaute 2000 in Avignon in which she interacted with artists such as Sarah Sze, Anish Kapoor, and Jeff Koons, who created installation to interact with the fourteenth-century Palais des Papes.
