Crash Bang Wallop
For four more days you can catch an extraordinary exhibition at the Gagosian Gallery in Kings Cross. A host of influential and controversial modern artists have work on display that forms an homage to JG Ballard's Crash.
Some of the work forms obvious links, whilst some is on display to provide a reference, or a feeling of the environment at the time... despite not always being completely cohesive, or as visually/sexually powerful as the (Cronenberg's) film, some of the pieces and the concept make it well worth seeing. Andy Warhol, Helmut Newton etc all have work on display, and the Chapman Brothers did limited edition of the book which is available to buy...
