Abstract
In this chapter, I examine artistic and curatorial approaches to the presentation and experience of western art in galleries and museum settings. The 20th century approach to gallery design as a simple clean white cube space has its origins in the minimalist Suprematist genre of painting of, for example, Kazimir Malevich, whose uber abstract painting series Black Square (1915) and White on White1 (1917-1918) speak to a minimalist purist aesthetic echoed in much of the design aesthetic at The Bauhaus. The idea of the gallery or museum space as a neutral sterile white cube frames an implicit idea about viewers as observers, not participants. Taking up the aesthetics of the cabinet of curiosities and the minimalist museum aesthetic of the white cube, I trace a more recent burgeoning tendency in western contemporary art making and exhibition that draws on and expresses a Deleuzian ontology of immanence, alongside Elizabeth St. Pierre's conceptualization of the post qualitative. Here, the experience of art is oriented to experiential affective participation, focusing on works by Canadian artist Annie MacDonell, Serbian artist Marina Abramovic, French contemporary artist Sophie Calle as immanent experiential praxis, as entangled, situated, and affective.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
