How Much: Free!

Sometimes you get a press release that sounds like a load of old drivel. Well, quite often in fact. But every now and again you get one that feels not only that it's been composed by a talented writer but also by somebody with a genuine love for the project that they are promoting.

Check this out for a lovely example of the latter:

"Curated by Edd Pearman, 'Manderley' represents duality - the characteristic of being two-fold: Lightness with Darkness, Life and Death, the tranquil amidst the dreadful. This collection of works presents such dichotomies - each individual artist extracting a sense of beauty from the profane. August yet imposing marquetry, warningly serene photography, and magnetically hypnotic but voyeuristic video work: all initially appear to embody one intention, yet possess in equal measure, opposite qualities. Each of the artists have either studied or taught in the Printmaking Department at the Royal College of Art, London."

Splendid huh?
