A huge building which they clearly have problems trying to fill. There is very little ‘contemporary art’. Rather a disparate collection portraying everything you could imagine from accounts of domestic violence and videos of gay pride marchers being attacked, to some fat older guy (presumably the ‘artist’) who had had his naked body photographed in lots of contorted positions. Not a pretty sight! Spare spaces were filled with mannequins, one with a superman cape, another with a white T-shirt and the bottom half of a pair of jeans. There was supposed to be a slide/helter skelter, which would have livened things up, but ‘no, it’s reserved for children on their birthdays’.
Overall, a very depressing experience. Give it a miss. We did only see two other visitors!
