And why wait? Let’s set it up now with all the objects I have on my illegal shopping list after visiting Stranger Than Kindness. I have a small but adequate apartment that is two rooms that would be a perfect place for a Nick Cave Museum.
In his Last Will and Testament made in 1987, on view in the sprawling exhibition Stranger Than Kindness: The Nick Cave Exhibition, Nick Cave requested: “…money earned on records, both publishing and record sales, should be used to have and maintain a small but adequate room or rooms that will serve as the “Nick Cave Memorial Museum” to pay homage to my life.” Reading this document in Iain Forsyth and Jane Pollard’s 2014 documentary 20,000 Days on Earth, Nick chuckles and points out that at this point in his life, the money of which he speaks was nothing. Detail of Ben Smith’s Ink and Solace, including a reflection of Nick’s library and the exit sign beckoning for a snatch and grab!
