I've been in touch with the guy running the show in Dublin. The show and
exhibition are definitely happening - it's been confirmed by Corwood as
recently as January this year. It will be a solo set.

The exhibition will consist only of the album covers. As I understand it,
there are no plans to publish an exhibition catalogue that reproduces the
covers - so I guess it must be another European gallery who are bringing out
the book Corwood mentions (I will check, however). There will be a small
book published by the gallery to accompany the exhibition/ gig containing
two short (1000 word) essays, one by the exhibition organiser, one which
I've written.
