Writing, talking, film, TV\u2026 you are dealing with another world, an imaginary world.\u2019<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\">The sheer quantity of the media in which Mullican worked demonstrates the scope of his subject matter, one that\u00a0includes all the potential variety of \u2018another world\u2019.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\">At the time,\u00a0the exhibition was only one part of the full picture, with another selection of Mullican\u2019s work simultaneously exhibited at the Tapies Foundation in Barcelona. <em>Seeing More Details from an Imaginary Universe<\/em> subsequently demanded the imaginative capacity of those who saw it &#8211; to guess and envision the other half of the work, in a gallery hundreds of miles away.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":53094,"template":"","event_type":[230],"audience":[],"class_list":["post-53093","events","type-events","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","event_type-archive","entry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!--
