Jonjon explores: “The Passage of Time: Victor Alonso de Olmo” (Showroom 48 Poland Street)

These exhibitions vanish before you hear a whimper. Find yourself in the worlds of ad-hoc showcasing in every sense of it.

But the more we talk, the less there are to see. The very venue can disappear overnight (now with Soho’s redevelopment plans).

And yet still; our opening-night guests clink and clank our beer bottles as if tomorrow’s not coming yet. Put on a poster at the main entrance, and let the magic begin.

Imagine what it’s like to start something. Then leave, but without a trace whatsoever – not here, not on the internet (the latter is ever less imaginable these days).

These are really one of the most random venues you can find in London. In an unlikely location too. Fifteen-minute walk away are art galleries from St. James and Piccadilly. But they’re the establishment. Here’s an apartment venue, in the middle of Soho and with endless possibilities.

Surprises. Life’s full of those. Grab them. But do so before the bulldozers set in.

Time is asset: save it for better with 25-min museum tours. Or find yourself in my novel, check out the photo of the day and finish it off with a secret prize.
