"Photo city: How images shape the urban world" An excellent exhibition at Dundee V&A. Luckily it's on till Oct so no excuse to miss it. Beautifully curated collection of stirring images and videos. Many highlights but No 1 for me was the photo-collage of Dundee by japanese artist Sohei Nishino. The video of him introducing the work is worth a visit itself.
