However, this is not an objective, academic history. The exhibition has been curated by an artist wholly involved in the story and for that reason it has more fire, more tension, even more awkwardness than a conventional survey or anthology." (from the foreword by Joanna Drew). The exhibition is considered to have been "fundamental for establishing the work of important neglected or emerging artists" (afterall.org).
