Exhibition and talks from by Will Self and Profesor Jphn Read John Baldessari – Matthew Buckingham – Sophie Calle – Marc Camille Chaimowicz – Moyra Davey – Luke Fowler – Gillian Wearing – Catherine Yass The modern city has frequently been identified through its intensity – a busy and bustling environment of potentially creative and productive activity.

It is this finely balanced state which the exhibition explores, the condition of urban psychosis is presented as a recurring theme, a shadow which continues to haunt the city. July 2014
