This well-respected contemporary gallery south of the river features painting, photography, installation art and other media in a warehouse setting - everything is game, but the results are truly fascinating rather than gimmicky. The artists themselves often turn up to give presentations on their works. Recent shows have included Urban Nomads, a look at how artists interpret physical, imaginary and technological travel, a Sean Scully solo show, a Julian Schnabel exclusive and a multimedia exhibition loosely constructed around 'Because a fire was in my head' - the 15th century philosopher Giulo Camillo's affirmation of his divine perspective.
