Take my eyes and through them see you

Highly influential artist and film-maker Cerith Wyn Evans is presenting at the ICA. Take my eyes and through them see you brings fresh insight into the work of an artist who has undoubtedly had a significant impact on contemporary visual arts.

For this exhibition, Cerith Wyn Evans has conceived a set of entirely new works in direct response to the history, location and architectural particularities of the ICA. The show is also an opportunity for the artist to examine a personal relationship with an institution that has played an important role in his development. He first visited the ICA as a teenager in the early 1970s where he came to see Marcel Broodthaers' final exhibition La Bataille de Waterloo (The Battle of Waterloo), 1975. The exhibition, with its overtly critical political content had a tremendous effect on Wyn Evans and will be referenced within some of the new works made for the ICA.

Well worth a visit, make sure you don't miss this. Running from the 20 Sep 2006 - 29 Oct 2006
