Blank Screen Syndrome Exhibition

Wednesday, September 2nd, 2009

Phil Wolstenholme, creator of one of the pieces of artwork for the film and brought to animated life in the MEDIA section’s The Listening Room , celebrated 20 years of creativity with a great retrospective at the Workstation over the summer, the exhibition, which included his art for The Beat Is The Law, was extended due to popular demand.

“The breadth of material on show may puzzle those expecting a single theme or some overarching theory on which to hang an opinion (or indeed a review). But at a time when so much visual art relies for validation on mission statements and other textual baggage, it’s pleasing to find work that displays confidence in versatility and pure visual pleasure.”
David Thompson – Eye Blog, 28th July 2009
