Caught the Anthony Gormley exhibition at the Hayward yesterday just before it finishes. Clever stuff - the Blind Light installation is a real crowd pleaser, though I suppose it's sort of ironic that Londoners are now paying £8 a head to experience thick fog when we used to get it for free on a regular basis. We also liked the 'allotment' bit where he's built concrete structures to house the bodies of residents of Malmo in various sizes, with apertures for assorted orifices, and he's done some nice things with stainless steel wire. The brochure for the show is full of sublimely meaningless nonsense such as 'it's a small thing that has been made into a very large thing, but that large thing is itself a model for something much larger.' Come again?
