Excellent exhibition - well curated. Particularly glad I saw the TV special on Deller before seeing the exhibition as it gave me a good perspective on his work. Shrigley - funny and dark. More

Deterred by the lengthy early morning queues for Hockney at the RA we delayed and spent two or three hours over here looking at these two first rate exhibitions. Always like the Hayward. Friendly, efficient, not expensive and easy to get to. We did Shrigley first. Ever item at least a chuckle and some very perceptive and nudging you to... More
