The main exhibition of the project took place between 11 May and 8 June 2008 in the Stanley Brouwn pavilion and other venues in Leidsche Rijn, Utrecht and within the Shadow Cabinet at de Appel arts centre, Amsterda
m from 22 February to 8 June.

Other projects are being distributed through the international art journal Fillip Art Review (Mariana Castillo Deball) and via international postal services (The Faculty of Invisibility).

The title Master Humphrey’s Clock is borrowed from a weekly periodical written and published by Charles Dickens. It is an inspiring story of shifted intentions, the account of which was found in the Preface of The Old Curiosity Shop in a second-hand store of a new urban development in Leidsche Rijn.

The fourth issue of F.R. David, or The Book of Intentions, is one of the sites of Master Humphrey's Clock. Within the camouflage of this pirated journal the curators of Master Humphrey's Clock chose to encapsulate their intentions -- shared, stolen or otherwise discovered, rather than just letting them dissolve into the final exhibition.

The second part of this publication, Index, will be published in summer 2008.
