The pop star and frontman of Pulp is now getting all arty again, curating a show at the Hepworth Wakefield in West Yorkshire next year with his wife, the creative consultant Kim Sion. <\/p>\n<p class=\"pt-dp-p font-text-light font-light text-lg leading-normal tracking-wide mb-base last:mb-0\" itemprop=\"text\">The exhibition, titled The Hodge Podge, promises to be an eclectic mix, prompting \u201cunlikely conversations\u201d between artists such as Jeremy Deller, Peter Doig, Barbara Hepworth and Klara Kristalova. The couple have even drawn up a manifesto, highlighting the meaning of \u201chodge podge\u201d\u2014just so you know, the phrase originated in the 15th century from the Middle English\/French phrase hochepot, which meant a stew made of many ingredients. <\/p>\n<p class=\"pt-dp-p font-text-light font-light text-lg leading-normal tracking-wide mb-base last:mb-0\" itemprop=\"text\">The exhibition will apparently end with Dreamachine, \u201ca machine that shows us that our minds make art, without us even thinking about it\u201d.
