Buzz Magazine, DOCUMENTING THE CITY, June 2007 | "The exhibition also celebrates the city's desire to carry itself steadily forward into the future. This
unique collection will not only be museum-bound as people can access
and admire the anthology from their very own homes - an online gallery
and archive has been set up to further enhance Newport's reputation as
an extremely forward moving and thought provoking metropolis".
