Thanks, Brian. That exhibition is really quite interesting because
some of the images are a bit boring -- Untitled no 9 and no 12, for
instance.
But then perhaps they don't transfer to the screen very well. There
are some interesting mixes of colours, but many of them are too dark
to see. You'd have to have a pretty light place to find the subject
in some of them.
It's a good thing that AndrewF isn't listening ... :-)
