"Studio Franchise" is divided into three sections: the recreation of a workshop in one of the exhibition halls, which runs according to its very own set of rules, based on the artist's New York studio; an exhibition in progress, which is being gradually completed by McGinness and his collaborators who are the student attendees of his workshop; and a conventional exhibition showing a selection of his recent works.
