Description Diaries and Dreams was a video presentation and performed reading of extracts from artist Ian Breakwell's new book, The Artist's Dream, a book which compiles twenty years of prose fiction and illustrated with his drawings, collages and photographs.

programme description: "A writer as well as a visual artist Breakwell is best known for his diaries, begun in 1965, a continuing idiosyncratic collection of observations recording daily life in both verbal and visual form. Recently he has chronicled the Britain of the '80s, the Falklands War and the ensuing Nationalism, greed and hooliganism that characterises the new conservatism".
