Alain de Botton quoted in a press release? Ha! That's amazing. What's wrong with usual suspects: Foucault, Derrida and Baudrillard? Have they been superseded by cod-philosopher Bottom?
Anyway, whoever the thinker they've co-opted to provide intellectual foundations, this looks like being a cracking show. No Man's Land seeks to explore the concept of the unoccupied space - geographically yes, but also in terms of representation, meaning, and reality.
The exhibition is curated by Brendan Murphy, Cherie Marie Veiderveld and Simon-Reuben White, and features work by several contemporary artists across video, sound installation, painting and photography. In particular, look out for Jeni Snell whose work is consistently fascinating.
Until 03.05.09.

I couldn't agree more with you! Alain de Botton? If he's a philosopher, then so is Jeremy Clarkson! I mean, whatever next?

That's it Joe, you go with your Daily Mail outrage

I don't think it's 'Daily Mail' to regard de Botton as an intellectual pygmy on a par with JK Rowling. In fact, it was the hilarity of your own barbed put down that spurred me on.

It was the tone of your comment rather than its contents that prompted the Daily Mail comparison. I mean a theatre editor ending a comment with "whatever next?"? I mean, whatever next?
