  1. This gallery is exactly the kind of space I'd love to live in in the middle of a city - with a flat roof too, of course.
    The materials are fantastic, and so seductive, ... but my mind never got beyond those materials and their qualities. Beautiful, however.

  2. It's a wonderful space, Olga, and every time we visit I admire at the space as much as the exhibits. As for the exhibition, I agree - the materials and the way they have been used, dominate. I really enjoyed it all.
