What of the relationship between the space and the work?

I touched upon exhibiting work here (last paragraph), I think it's relevant to this practice - so take a look if you want.

What spaces make great galleries? Does the work have to relate to the surroundings? Or is it better when there is a distinct contrast? Beautiful works displayed in derelict warehouses or the opposite displayed in buildings with beautiful architecture - what is the relationship between the space and the work?

Trove, Eastside Projects, The Edge are examples of warehouse spaces that I think offer a completley different experience to the Ikon and BMAG for example.
