The venue is a first floor flat on the corner of Brick Lane and Cheshire Street which belongs to the artist Martin Creed. Since he moved out about one year ago, a permanent installation of his work The lights going on and off has been visible from the street. The flat is now used as a project space, called 79a Brick Lane, and a group show curated by Martin Creed's ex tutor, Tess Jaray, is currently on show.
