It's an exhibition of striking photographs, some of which can be seen here, of a number of the successful members of Team GB from the Beijing Olympics. According to Time Out it will be in the same spot until the 17th of September. I believe it may also be at the O2 Arena, the artist formerly known as the Millennium Dome.
It's definitely worth checking out as a free, open-air exhibit and while the achievements of Team GB are fresh in everyone's minds. There are some really striking images and interesting quotes, as well as replicas of the Adidas equipment used by each athlete (well why else would they be doing it?).
It is also a taste, hopefully, of things to come in the next four years as outdoor media looks set to be at the forefront of a lot of the hype that will build in London around the big fortnight in Hackney.
It's also set against the backdrop of some of London's most iconic landmarks, including the new, the Tate Modern, and the old, St Paul's Cathedral.
