    2. The text reflects on one's own experience of the exhibition, and/or the relationship with the experienced art by relying on notes.

    3. The exhibition report must include a photograph that also serves as an evidence of the exhibition visit. It can be, for example, a self-portrait in front of a work in an exhibition.
