The Art of the Brick

It's not unintellectual exhibition, but who doesn't love making things with Lego? You have to be impressed that Nathan Sawaya was bold enough to get out there and make a living out of Lego modelling before the rest of us knew it was possible. Where he differs from many artists is that he mixes in inspirational quotes, he is an ex lawyer, a man who understands the power of words. Who doesn't want to read that quitting his job in law to make art made him happy or that art makes better people. The quotes are part of the experience of the exhibition.
