Prozac and Private Views
I'm very excited because I've been called a "shadowy 'gallerista'/Svengali" this is an image that I may cultivate.
Excitement is building at Transition about our forthcoming Stella Vine show Prozac and Private Views . What it will contain is at present a closely guarded secret but watch this space as details may gradually leak out.

I went to see lots of art last week -

Also heard Sarah Lucas in conversation with her gallerist Sadie Coles at Tate Britain which was enjoyably inarticulate and stilted. I've never been much of a Lucas fan before but I enjoyed this. I hadn't realised the extent of her nostalgia for her seventies childhood, evidence of which is found in the Spam, Fray Bentos pies and Charlie George filled content of recent work.
