The installation aims to depict the aftermath of a terrible catastrophe - a concept which becomes all the more poignant and relevant in the wake of the recent Asian tsunami tragedy. Strange debris is strewn all around the gallery. Broken toys, old trainers and torn clothes are left lying hap-hazardly on the floor which is covered with sparkly grey dust. Abstract objects are scattered around as well - bright, colourful shapes cut from soft materials such a foam, rubber and vinyl can be seen laying amongst the debris. Their purpose is to make the space less violent and more cheerful. There are also photographic images hanging on the walls in the style of shop window displays. These aim to depict apparent consumer chaos. The idea of this installation is to create a ruined environment which has an air of optimism and joy about it - as though new life can generate from the devastated surroundings"--BBC website

This book records the design work and ephemera that survived in Richard Negri's personal archive, discovered in a large cardboard box found after his death in 1999. Richly illustrated (and published for the first time) with more than 300 high quality reproductions, a majority of which are full colour, the book also includes additional production photographs that reveal the link between the designs and their realisation, many of which were discovered in the Mander and Mitcheson and Victoria and Albert Museum's theatre collections.A series of interviews were conducted with some of Negri's key colleagues and collaborators: actor Bernard Cribbins, director Frank Dunlop, composer George Hall, playwright Ronald Harwood and lighting designer Richard Pilbrow. Full recordings are now held in the British Library.Transcripts of excerpts from those interviews, (together with some of the author's own with the designer Johanna Bryant, actress Avril Elgar, lighting designer/production manager Michael Williams and the Negri family) are threaded through and underpin the book's narrative.
The present mainstream books on evidence do not include coverage of certain features which are unique to family law - eg special law and procedure on hearsay and other rules of evidence (eg litigation privilege and expert evidence) in children proceedings; and the rules on disclosure in financial relief proceedings. At the same time, family lawyers do not always take account of the extent to which they depend on the common law and the rules of evidence which are defined by such mainstream texts. Accordingly, this specialist title defines the general rules of evidence as they apply to family matters, while the range of rules which apply specifically to family proceedings are also covered in detail.
