Nottingham Contemporary

Ok, so I've not blogged in ages but today I made my second trip to Nottingham Contemporary and so I thought I'd share what was going on there...also its a nice break from writing my report!!
At the moment there is a exhibit on named 'Uneven Geographies..art and globalisation' which consisted of pictures, projections, programmes and sculptures...not forgetting some very bizarre albino looking amphibians, which to be quite frank scared the life out me and mesmerized me all at the same time.
These art forms intended to show the impact of globalisation and are interesting as they are not always objective; showing the pain and unfair results of globalsiation, bringing to our attension what goes on around the world due to our desires for cheap quality clothing, for example.
I'd go and see the exhibition as it is free and interesting to see the displays literally, even if you're not interested in the deeper meaning; I have to admit I did feel a little stupid on leaving, as I tried to figure out what exactly it all meant.
