Wouldn't It Be Nice |
Wouldn't it be nice... brings together artists and designers in a major exhibition full of wit and subversion. Featuring new and recent work from 10 leading practitioners from the world of art and design, the exhibition explores the common ground between the two fields.
The content will constantly change and develop with a programme of performance-based installations during the run. Wouldn't it be nice... includes new commissions from Martino Gamper and Bless.
The exhibition has been extended to Sunday 21 December 2008. Enjoy the SuperChristmasMarket on the last weekend, where you will find unique gifts and one-off pieces bought directly from designers including Martino Gamper, Michael Marriott and Lady Luck Rules OK. Entry to the SuperChristmasMarket and the galleries will be £2, and all purchases will be cash or cheque only.

The exhibition shows how contemporary art and design have recently been fostering some intriguing shared ideals; rejecting traditional definitions of their practice and instead treating their work as an investigation. The exhibition focuses on art and design's cultural role as a medium for experimentation, and a catalyst for change. Subtitled `wishful thinking', the territory explored is a modest form of Utopianism, a whistle of optimism against a bass note of misgiving.
