has been for sale for some time, as you have seen. The maintenance and ongoing development to keep our non-profit and idealistic platform for contemporary art running and safe from hackers etc. costs money that is no longer there. Because of small investments that are necessary now and the running costs, we will have to shut down with a heavy heart at the beginning of summer on June 21.

A performance in which Simon Raven wore a hand-painted sandwich board reading 'Human Freak - Queue Here' at a large outdoor fair. Jim Brouwer filmed from a distance, blending into the crowd. This shocking double-act drew from a recent Oxfam report, which showed that the UK has now regressed to Victorian levels of inequality. The 'Freakshow', at which disabled people earned a living by presenting themselves as exhibits, was a popular form of entertainment at Victorian Fairs, and might find parallels in TV talent shows today. Social inequality often disproportionately affects the disabled community, as might be seen by ongoing attempts to scrap the Independent Living Allowance, upon which many disabled people rely to earn a living.
