How Much:
Free!
And, by unanimous decision, the prize for most unweildy exhibition title of 2009 goes to this bizarre-sounding Sean Edwards project at Limoncello.
'Portrait (for a screenplay) of Beth Harmon' - From the novel 'The Queen's Gambit' by Walter Tevis is a long-running project that features work by artists invited to take part by Edwards.
The whole concept involves responding to the character of eight year old Beth Harmon, shy and introverted until she starts playing chess. The film adaptation of The Queen's Gambit has been in pre-production for years, but bedevilled by problems such as the death of scheduled director Heath Ledger, perhaps this exhibition is all that will ever become of it...
Until 19.09.09.
