It's always interesting when a gallery allows an artist to totally transform the space - one wonders how they get it all back to normal afterwards. But that's neither here nor there.
What is both here and there (what?) is that Brazilian contemporary artist Rivane Neuenschwander has taken over the South London Gallery for a couple of months, and what she's done sounds great.
She's put in a new floor, which splits the gallery in two and whose supports also divide the lower half into different sections. There's loads of weird stuff going on too: a mini-mountain range made from all the dust produced by drilling holes in the walls, a rain-like audio piece, and a flickering spot of light caused by 1001 holes in a 16mm film.
What's great about Neuenschwander's work is that both process and outcome are generally given equal attention: so conceptually, it's pretty fascinating, and aesthetically, complex.
