Situations

Jeppe Hein, Follow Me, commissioned for the University of Bristol Centenary celebrations, 2009

Situations is a commissioning and research programme based at the University of the West of England (UWE) in Bristol. We are dedicated to the commissioning of outstanding artists' projects, often outside conventional gallery or museum contexts, which open up new forms of public engagement with contemporary art. We are also committed to placing our own projects within a wider international context through the development and dissemination of internationally significant research in contemporary art and commissioning.

Situations was initiated in October 2003 by Claire Doherty. From the start, the programme’s guiding principles have been to combine a commissioning agency model with the rigour of an academic research programme. Situations forms part of the Place Research Centre at the University of the West of England in Bristol.
