Kettle’s Yard, University of Cambridge, Castle Street, Cambridge CB3 0AQ
In tight financial times, it is good to see this kind of generous programming, and the more concentrated format’s strength lies most especially in its potential for more intense, focused conversations between artists, artworks and disciplines as well as the opportunities for experimentation that such a short run provides.
