About

Thinking Things takes the relationship between art and the activity of thinking as its subject, exploring thinking's ambivalent entanglement with sculptural and visual forms through the practices of a number of contemporary artists, among them Richard Bevan, Vanessa Billy, Emilie Pitoiset and Zin Taylor, as well as through the work of the writer, film-maker and educator Fernand Deligny (1913-1996). The exhibition takes its name from an essay by literary theorist Steven Connor entitled Thinking Things, in which he writes thinking, which is properly nothing and nowhere, can only lay hold of itself in the form of a thing. But not just any thing will do, for it seems that it needs to be a special kind of thing, a thing apt to embody thought — a thinking thing."
