THE SALFORD & DISTRICT TAKEAWAY MENU MUSEUM.

The above image is a 2 metre by 1.5 metre digital collage which is made up from takeaway menus that have been posted through my front door over the last five years. I now have several hundred of these colourful little pamphlets which is why I have decided to form THE SALFORD & DISTRICT TAKEAWAY MENU MUSEUM.

It is a bit tongue in cheek but I do also think that they do or at least will form part of our social history. I believe that there is a pencil museum somewhere so come on! It's also a chance to take a look at the workings of institutions such as museums and galleries.

If you have menus to contribute and they are from Greater Manchester then please send me them, email me for an address.

As the name suggests CHINA SQUARE Gallery represents Chinese artists. Based in NY it's no good to pop into but luckily they have a decent website that let's you see stacks of work by Artist's from the big country that manufactures plastic shit by the ton and is obsessed with the colour red. Oh yes there is a separate photographers section full of refreshing stuff. Happy early Chinese New Year. HERE.

I wish that 'm' stood for Manchester but alas this gallery is in Shanghai. Still, thanks to this here box on my lap which is currently leaking small doses of radiation into my groin I can spend some time looking at the work of some excellent Chinese photographers. HERE for m97 Gallery. (God they're getting warm)
