This exhibition was curated by Guy Brett. He writes in his essay, "The Century of Kinesthesia," that the works in the exhibition represent a language of movement or the physiognomy and poetics of language. Writing about dom sylvester houedard, Brett describes him as a Benedictine monk, poet, artist, and one of the most remarkable intellectuals in Britain. He developed a unique compressed prose style to theorise the discoveries of kinetic art and concrete poetry. The catalogue includes an extensive, illustrated chronology of the kinetic movement from 1910 to 1975 and also an anthology of previously published, selected essays by the artists in the exhibition. The Sackner Archive lent nine typewriter, optical works by Dom Sylvestre Houedard to the exhibition. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
