I'm sorry I took this thread off in a fraught direction. Back to the QAGOMA exhibition. Although, there certainly is a directly-relevant covid aspect to this thread because, like Bambi blithely frolicing in the forest, things were going ever so smoothly up until the time we returned from the press launch at the end of February. The worst thing we had to deal with in organizing it was the smoke from the fires that were consuming Australia at the time. Then Godzilla appeared out of nowhere and stomped on us. European institutions went silent as their employees were confined to home, international air freight shipments suddenly became a major issue as airlines stopped flying, and in-person visits to potential lenders were no longer possible.
I drafted a ~1500-word article describing what it was like for us to quickly and completely reconfigure a major international design exhibition in the face of a global pandemic. We haven't decided yet where to submit it but I'll post that information here once we do. It was a "fascinating" experience.
