Identity: Eight rooms, nine lives - further details
14 October 2009
http://www.wellcome.ac.uk/News/Media-office/Press-releases/2009/WTX056922.htmWellcome Collection in central London today announces further details of its major temporary exhibition of the year: 'Identity: Eight rooms, nine lives', 26 November 2009-11 April 2010.
The exhibition is part of an ambitious season of activities focused on the endlessly fascinating topic of human identity.
A newly commissioned play by singer-songwriter Billy Bragg (performed for 20 nights at the end of the exhibition run), extracts from the diary of Tony Benn, time warped twins, the first person in Britain to undergo gender reassignment, the actress Fiona Shaw, and a special time lapsed mirror revealing to us how the rest of the world see us, all form part of this investigative exhibition that attempts to explore human identity and its infinite amount of possibilities.
