Canvas and Cream has given a real boost to the area. Have they? Or are they simply cashing in on the hard work and achievements of others' hard work? It's a nice looking caff, don't get me wrong , but everyone I know whose been there says how expensive it is and that they can't really afford to go back. Would prefer to see something more inclusive and less elitist than somewhere who seems to state openly that it only wants the right sort of people to hire its venue. I doubt if David Hockney would support that sort of thing- he's a lot more egalitarian.
More down to earth. Sustainability is the main key to regeneration not obscure self indulgent art created for the elite to amuse itself with, nor the Saatchis.
There are plenty more jewels in our crown: why focus on the more odious side?
