Rory Macbeth has had these made - spectacles produced to the same prescription as Sigmund Freud - for our current exhibition X-Operative. Entitled 'Reading Glasses (Fraud)' 2013, and made in relation to the theme of reading and writing, it's a genius piece of work - the spectacles are at such a high maginification that it's impossible to see anything through them, including the writings of Freud set alongside them. The gallery has been transformed and there are so many amazing books in it that it's tempting to stay in there all day reading. Loads of brilliant events coming up too. See the exhibitions page of the website for full details or click here.
