Reading by Light combines contemporary and classic lights with text works from artists and writers to create a new exhibition environment for the acts of reading and consideration.

The condition and act of reading will be explored in a number of light/text juxtapositions ranging from philosophical opinions to humour. New lights and text works will be commissioned to join a number of specifically selected objects and texts to create a stimulating environment that will relate to those interested in design, art and literature.

The reading material will come in many different formats such as works on paper, neon art works, books and small sculptural objects. Classic and contemporary furniture will also be included to work with a number of art works and lights.

This exhibition has been curated by Paul Bradley Studios.

Artists exhibiting will include

Damien Hirst, Ian Hamilton–Finlay, Jo McGonigal, Michael Landy, Lawrence Weiner, Guido Oooms, Rose Finn- Kelcey, Hamish Fulton, Jonathan Callan, Christopher P. Baker, Ian Breakwell, Alan ball, Finn McGee, Simon Patterson, Simon Linke, Fiona Banner, Marco Zito, Shaun Pickard, Tony Trehy, Freedom of Creation, Kazuhiro Yamanka, Ingo Maurer
