Emily hasn't spoken to her artists yet so I've booked John for 3rd to 17th Feb. Sorted.

was there any news as to whether he plans to paint the walls olive green or whether he is installing floating walls and painting them olive green? i only ask because it will determine whether or not we repaint the gallery in january.

Text from John:

"Paintings of sites where Blaise Pascal's vacuum experiment was performed are
accompanied by a recreation of the experiment itself.
The work reviews the 17th Century mathematician's relationship with the notion of
'void' and seeks a visual language analagous to it."
