London Graf

A quick 48 hours in London to catch up with some old friends and reacquaint ourselves with the old city.

Walking from the V&A Post-Modernism exhibition to central London.
View down the Thames – the city scape evolving. Would be good to hire someone without Foster or Rogers for once, eh?
Reflecting, as usual.

Tacita Dean @ Tate Modern

Man I wish I had made it to see Fiona Banner at Tate Britain though.

Tacita Dean filling the Turbine Hall at Tate Modern … not quite as arresting or immediately accessible as previous years, but I was happy to see motion media being employed.
Twisting and distorting film by hand
This is what I call a real art space – one that kids can run through and enjoy
View from behind
Stairs
Ai Weiwei … would have loved to have seen the original piece, but they had a few million on display for the visitors.
Too cool for art

Brick Lane Graffiti

Enjoying the street art along Brick Lane.
Space Invader!
Locals also enjoying it.
Characters
Old geezers – hey was that the same guy?
HUH?
I wonder how much the local authorities tolerate / encourage the work?
Bright colours
Seems that portraits are pretty edgy right now.
