Early start again today, trucks needed to be loaded with paintings, crates, tools and ladders. One team was off delivering works to a gallery and the other was packing some sculptures for an artist. I helped load the trucks and made everyone tea (again). After that it was more packing, again paintings, then getting the space ready for a visitor. A crate arrived and I used a pump truck (a wheeled trolly for moving heavy objects). You pump the handle and the base raises to take the weight of the object then pull it to where its going, then lower the base again and pull out the truck.
There was a visitor from Miami to check some works that had been shiped and I helped out, using an electric screwdriver to open the crates.
The guys have given me some more time to take photos and catch up with my blog. later I'm going to sit down with Martin (the director) and go through it.
The artist I saw today was John Gerrard (images at top). He uses the same technology and graphics as game designers to make video installations but where usually only one thing happens or they are in real time rather than fast action edits.
