Exhibitions2017Doublethink: Double Vision

Artists from around the world show how to develop not just doublethink, but polythink, thinking along multiple parallel or tangential lines at the same time.The exhibition catalogue reflects the changing ways of thinking and communication in arts with the curator Alistair Hicks’ texts and his selection of artworks at the exhibition.
