Yesterday was the last day of Robert Lenkiewicz's retrospective at the RWA. I wish I hadn't left it so late to see this, I would be quite happy to re-visit and gawp. It's definitely something you gawp at; images of graphic depictions of the social 'minorities', from awkward eye-to-eye voyeurism of the disabled, to sterile sympathy towards the elderly and the stark honesty of the dependent drug addicts and alcoholics. Uplift it may not, it's certainly a thought-provoking if a little unnerving way to spend an hour.
