LAST WEEKEND TO VISIT!


CREEKSIDE OPEN 2013
Selected by Paul Noble

LAST WEEKEND TO VISIT!
 "From 2318 works down to 125 works, how did I do this? I sat at a computer screen, hand on cursor clicking green 'thumbs up' or red 'thumbs down'. My mind was open but my hand seemed possessed, possessed by the spirit of Kurt Schwitters. I was inspired by what I had seen at Tate Britain. Schwitters reminded me of the force that is released by the simple (and not so simple) manipulation of simple (and not so simple) matter. He had an honest eye. An eye that saw truth in everything. This is what I was looking for. I am excited by the selection I have made. Kurt is dead. Long live Kurt." - Paul Noble, Selector
