Though panned by reviews here in London, according to my pal, Nicholas Bourriaud's massive undertaking illustrates the need to reinvent the state of young artists now. Standouts for me included: Peter Coffin's brilliant layered commentary and psychedelic journey through a selection from Tate's permanent collection; Mike Nelson's recreation of his studio with detritus and dry video presentation on symbology; and Loris Greard's brilliant room of brain wave vibration. I found the show layout a virtual maze of disorder and Bourriaud's stance predictable in choice but still provocation for the brain. A pleasant surprise!
