Art in London & Yorkshire

After a few weeks off I am back to blogging, it's amazing how time flies. However over the next few weeks I have plenty of exciting things to blog about.

First is my trip to London Last weekend, where I had to remind myself to relax so rather than run around London seeing all kinds of exhibitions I restrained myself too two exhibitions.

I popped along to the Tate Britain to see Rachel Whiteread drawings exhibition and really enjoyed this concise but informative show. It was really nice to see this fundamental backup work, I myself like to champion drawing as an important part of all art. The quality and drive from Rachel Whiteread is really inspirational, you can see a clear passion in all she does.

After this I went to the ever worthy Serpentine to see Wolfgang Tillmans, he is one of the few photographer who really pushes boundaries and keeps innovating. Tillmans also constantly reinvents the way he curates he work and give us all plenty to think about.

Later this week I had a work awayday at Yorkshire Sculpture Park and got an hour break to see the David Nash and really enjoyed what I saw however I plan on going back to see it in more detail before it closes in February 2011.

More to follow with blogs about our artists paintings for the next exhibition.
