| Zusammenfassung: | The distinctive display of Robert and Lisa Sainsbury's collection in the Living Area at the Sainsbury Centre for Visual Arts in Norwich (United Kingdom) was designed to encourage close looking, discovery, and engagement with works from a wide range of times and places. Conceived in the early 1970s, the exhibition design is rooted in an influential and contested history of modernist approaches to collecting and display. Given that the display is considered a permanent feature at the Sainsbury Centre, this chapter explores how these historical contexts can productively inform contemporary and future experiences of the Living Area. To do this, it examines the relationship between the Living Area exhibition design and earlier public displays of works from the Sainsbury Collection in London's changing art world. Taking the controversial exhibition 40,000 Years of Modern Art (1948) at the Institute of Contemporary Arts (ICA) as a starting point, it assesses how reactions to this experimental and problematic display relate to the conception of the Living Area and its place in the cultural landscape of the 1970s. The debates that took place at the ICA and beyond about the highly aestheticised display of works from the Sainsbury Collection in the 1976 exhibition Sacred Circles at the Hayward Gallery draw attention to this, particularly in the alternative approaches put forward by the artists Susan Hiller and David Medalla. These early exhibition histories are used to argue that by looking beyond the Sainsburys’ well-documented vision for their collection, the complex implications of the Living Area exhibition design can be more fully assessed. |
