: "Seven years on from its groundbreaking show Private Worlds: Outsider and Visionary Art, which helped promote this previously marginalised form of creativity to a wider public, Outsider Art has become widely known through high profile exhibitions, recently the Inner Worlds Outside exhibition at the Whitechapel gallery, London."

The revolutionary contemporary art exhibition, “Touching Art Touching You” will be launching its multi-sensory, interactive art experience at the Royal Cornwall Museum, Truro, from 26th July to 4th October 2008. “Touching Art Touching You” is a fresh and unique concept on the arts landscape. The exhibition breaks through traditional hierarchies & barriers in the arts by actively encouraging all works to be explored through touch. By shifting the established rules of art appreciation from sight (look) to the sense of touch (feel) the gallery experience instantly becomes an intimate, fresh and liberating art experience

The Third Guangzhou Triennial
Concept：Farewell to Post-Colonialism For the curatorial discourse of this Triennial, we propose to say ‘Farewell to Post-Colonialism’. This represents the theoretical basis from which we hope to explore our critical vision. ‘Farewell to Post-colonialism’ is not a denial of the importance and rewards of this intellectual tradition; in the real world, the political conditions criticised by post-colonialism have not receded, but in many ways are even further entrenched under the machinery of globalisation. However, as a leading discourse for art curatorial practice and criticism, post-colonialism is showing its limitations in being increasingly institutionalised as an ideological concept. Not only is it losing its edge as a critical tool, it has generated its own restrictions that hinder the emergence of artistic creativity and fresh theoretical interface. To say ‘Farewell to Post-Colonialism’ is not simply a departure, but a re-visit and a re-start.
