It is incumbent upon him [Don Quixote] to fulfill the promise of the books. It is his task to recreate the epic, though by a reverse process: the epic recounted (or claimed to recount) real exploits, offering them to our memory; Don Quixote on the other hand, must endow with reality the signs-without-content of the narrative. His adventures will be a deciphering of the world: a diligent search over the entire surface of the earth for the forms that will prove that what the books say is true. Each exploit must be a proof: it consists, not in a real triumph which is why victory is not really important but in an attempt to transform reality into a sign. Don Quixote reads the world in order to prove his books. And the only proofs he gives himself are the glittering reflection of resemblances. <p> Michel Foucault, (on Don Quixote) The Order of Things

Utställningar kan ses som världens äldsta massmedia. Utställning innebär att man gestaltar en miljö där människor kan träffas och uppleva något med alla sina sinnen. Utställningsmediet kan ta tillvara på hela den moderna medietekniken och är därför väldigt lätt att utforma efter egna tankar och idéer.   I detta examensarbete har utställningsmediet använts som en del i marknadsföringen av Pite Havsbad men också för att fira havsbadets sjuttioårs jubileum som äger rum i år, 2013. Utställningen består av två delar, dels en digital presentation men även en traditionell del.   Rapporten avslutas med slutsatser samt rekommendationer för framtida utställare.

A critical culture requires that the site of appearance, the temporal coincidence of the subject, the object and the site, be acknowledged as a ground for meaning. Through a built investigation and a theoretical address this thesis examines the site of appearance for contemporary creative practice; the extent to which it continues to be defined by and contained within the conceptual frame of the Enlightenment aesthetic as the privileged discourse of the object. In a detailed analysis of the architecture of the exhibition, the 18th century Academy Salon and the Parisian bourgeois hotel are juxtaposed with examples from the late 20th century practice of site-specific exhibition. This comparison reveals an essential connection between art and architecture, between architectural form and social representation. An alternative concept of the exhibition as a site of appearance thereby acknowledges individual, temporally specific interpretation as a potential ground for critical discourse within the contemporary art institution.
