Tomorrow the Hayward Gallery are opening an exhibition of 'invisible' art. However dubious I was about this in concept and execution before I went, I would say that it is definitely worth a visit.
Yes, that right, these are framed white pieces of paper. The one of the right that you can barely see? That is a rubbed out Playboy centre fold. All three by Tom Fieldman.
Andy Warhol once stood on this plinth, could I still feel his celebrity presence? I would say no, but an interesting concept.
So is this what happens you put on an invisible exhibition, you get invisible visitors?!!!! To be fair we were at the press view, I just can't see this exhibition pulling in the crowds. Especially when you are essentially paying £10 to look at some blank walls.
'Invisible: Art of the Unseen 1952-2012' runs from 12th June until 5th August 2012. Tickets £10.
