Behind the Scenes at Crawford: 'The sound of power tools and a new energy pervades the air'

This time is unlike any I have experienced in Crawford Art Gallery before. Each day coming to work means another artwork has been moved, crated, or even exited the building entirely.
In place of the thrum of visitors and excited school groups, the sound of power tools and a new energy pervades the air. Yes, it is strange to see the collection being packed up, but more so it feels exciting, even invigorating.
