Wilf - a Life in Pictures. Un cartoonist britannico racconta in vignette la sua biografia, dagli anni sessanta fino al ritiro negli anni novanta. Solo che il cartoonist Wilf non esiste. E' un artifizio artistico di James Pyman che, in questo modo, analizza i codici della comunicazione visiva, la loro evoluzione nel tempo e il rapporto coi colleghi. Una mostra un po' particolare, dal 22 aprile al 29 maggio 2004, alla Norwich Gallery. Tutte le informazioni si trovano nel suo sito.
