Before the events of 2010 the Kiosk had departed on a voyage to the future! It has vacated its current premises to make way for the new tram tracks.

It is now unlikely that our friendly time travelling capsule shall ever return.


Resembling a grey tardis with observation windows, The Kiosk was located in the busy pedestrian sector at the intersection of High, Lichfield and Manchester Streets (just one block away from The Physics Room), making it the most public Physics Room art site.

The Kiosk began in 2000 as an initiative of the Oblique Trust, but since May 2003 has been under the auspices of the Physics Room.

The Kiosk was a mini-exhibition space with power, halogen lights and built-in speakers, with floor dimensions of 700mm along the windows, 557mm at the narrowest end, 710mm at the widest end and 705mm high.
