Quick visit to Tate Britain for a bit of culture, to round off the day…. #tate #tatebritain #artist #jmwturner #gilt #framed #art #turner (at Tate Britain)
Shadows on the wall at the Cornelia Parker show at @tate Britain, which is really good - proof that conceptual art can be warmly engaging and even entertaining. (Her voice even comes through in the information panels, which are pitch perfect for the show - and how many exhibitions can you say that about?!) #tate #tatebritain #corneliaparker #exhibition #artexhibition #art #contemporaryart #london #londongallery #londongalleries #londonmuseum #museum #conceptualart #artwriting (at Tate Britain) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ceou8ujo4hT/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
Some highlights from the Sickert show at @tate Britain. It’s a good show and well put together - particularly when showing how much he learned from Degas and Whistler. And yet Sickert never really had a Number One hit, did he? He maybe had three or four Top 10s, a dozen or so in the mid to low Top 40s, and apart from the rest dropping briefly in and out of the Top 100 that was about it. Is he therefore the Ultravox of British art, with ‘Ennui’ as his ‘Vienna’? And if so, who is the Joe Dolce Music Theatre? Harold Gilman? #stretchedmetaphors #top10 #ukcharts #sickert #waltersickert #tate #tatebritain #londongallery #londonmuseum #londongalleries #londonmuseums #ultravox #joedolce #80spop #joedolcemusictheatre #onehitwonder #shaddupyouface #britishart #haroldgilman (at Tate Britain) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cdl6MvoIbg4/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
