Exploring London with Work
After a hugely full on month with fashion week we were able to have a bit of down time and go and see some beautiful art galleries and exhibitions in London. We saw so much inspirational work and got a lot of photos for future reference. We went to Tate Modern http://www.tate.org.uk/modern/ and saw an inspiring exhibition by Gerhard Richter and there was so much more to see - 5 levels of exhibitions so I have to head back there at some point. We also visited a gallery and saw original art works by Picasso, Magritte (who I did a study on at uni) and Andy Warhol, the prices were through the roof (£10 million a piece). I also saw a sculpture that looked exactly the same as one I had seen at Vatican City a few months back only this was a flat circle not a sphere shape like the other and when I read the description it turns out that they were both made as a series and the chances of seeing them both in a lifetime are pretty slim so that was pretty cool too!!!!
