The exhibition contains in the first programme four key works filmed on 16mm between 1976 and 1996, beginning with the seminal The Girl Chewing Gum shot in black and white on a grey day in Hackney, through to the lyrical Blight, revolving around the building of the M11 Link Road in East London and the bitter campaign by local residents to protect their homes from demolition, and made in collaboration with the composer Jocelyn Pook.

Developing a practice based upon collaboration, process and site-specificity, Pallasades engage with the historical associations of the building, activating the space using sound and electrical impulses.

A random mess, a shantytown, a temporary nuisance, a necessary group-hug to negate the cold, and a special opening performance by Big Chief Random Chaos. Enter Bizarre Bazaar, an open platform for the exchange of ideas, where every idea has its price.

Automatic is a two-part international group show of works that confront and insinuate themselves with the viewer. Attempting to question what might be innate or instinctual, each artist works within our daily experiences that lie beyond conscious decisions.
