Jim Lambie's Knight Time (2008) situates a cuboid of crushed metal armour and furniture on a minimalist mirrored block, adorned with multicoloured festoon lighting fixtures.
Klara Liden, whose work here was made especially for the exhibition, applies a brutal and reductive economy of means in her appropriation of industrial materials or discarded containers to signal urban architecture.
