This is a great space for art. Brick on the outside, ultramodern inside.
Staircase inside the building
The exhibition on at the moment is by a group called Mondongo - which is actually a soup or stew which often contains tripe. I guess it is a reference to a melting pot of talent, working together
The work on the 1st floor is made with strands of dyed cotton on a wax base. The work on the second floor reminded me of L'Orangerie in Paris which houses all those wonderful Monets. An oval room with very large artworks, hung separately but as one continuous landscape, all done with coloured wax. High relief work in many of them
Close ups of the huge thread works

This one is about eight feet high
Magnificent. They must take many, many hours to create.
