Rather than commissioning curators, sourcing loans and writing interpretation from scratch, the host museum receives everything required to open: the artworks themselves, purpose-built crating and condition reports, floor plans and install guidance, wall texts and interpretation copy in multiple languages, marketing imagery, film and educational content, and — where offered — a matched museum-shop merchandise range. The format lets mid-sized museums and science centres programme ambitious shows on predictable budgets and timelines. ## Frequently Asked Questions ### What is a turnkey touring exhibition? A turnkey touring exhibition is a complete, ready-to-install show that a museum books as one package rather than assembling itself: artworks, crating and shipping specification, interpretation and label copy, install support, marketing media and, where relevant, shop merchandise. ### Why do museums book turnkey exhibitions? Because the curatorial, logistical and interpretive work is already done. A venue can programme a full temporary exhibition with a known cost, a known footprint and a known install window, without building a show from scratch. ### What does a museum still need to provide? Typically the gallery space, shipping and insurance, local install labour and front-of-house. Point of View: Out of the Unseen is supplied on this basis, with the studio providing install support. ## Related concepts [ exhibition Point of View: Out of the Unseen A turnkey touring exhibition of over fifty scientific artworks by Jonty Hurwitz and Dr. Yifat Davidoff, exploring perception, mathematics and the limits of human sight. ](/concept/point-of-view-out-of-the-unseen)[ cultural reference Science Art Exhibition An exhibition format where artworks are built on scientific or mathematical principles, staged in museums, science centres and universities. ](/concept/science-art-exhibition) [← All concepts](/concepts) [](https://www.facebook.com/ontyhurwitzart)[](https://www.instagram.com/jontyhurwitzart/)[](https://wa.me/447469152288)
