“The first show I did was commissioned by the Arts Council of Great Britain in 1966, a touring show of kinetic art. This kind of art in movement excited me greatly and I was very close to Signals London, the showroom run by Paul Keeler and David Medalla in Wigmore Street in the mid 1960s which attracted a very large and diverse public in those days for its exhibitions.” Guy Brett, from an interview published on the /Seconds blog in 2006, quoted in The Art Newspaper, 4 February 2021 

Guy Brett was significant in bringing Latin American Kinetic artists to the attention of a wider audience, curating influential exhibitions throughout the 1960s including In Motion, an international exhibition of Kinetic Art for the Arts Council of Great Britain 

The exhibition included works by Bury, Lygia Clark, Colombo, von Graevenitz, Lijn, Medalla, Soto, Takis, Tinguely.
