Situations is a research and commissioning programme devised to investigate the significance of place and context in the commissioning and production of contemporary art.

The programme radiates out from our base at the University of the West of England in Bristol, to include the commissioning of innovative artists' projects, often outside conventional gallery or museum contexts, curatorial research, critical discussion platforms and publications.

Our website acts both as an archive of projects and a research resource for our past, present and future programme. If you would like to receive further information on Situations, please subscribe to our mailing list by clicking on Contact above.
