JAQUINTA: LONDON ART EXHIBITION


SOUTH LONDON GALLERY
NOTHING IS FOREVER

click on this sketchbook page to make larger to read........


Last week I went to the new exhibition at the South London Gallery
www.southlondongallery.org


Its new buildings are now open and the exhibition is a combination
of art and architecture with many art works drawn or painted directly 
onto the gallery walls.


My favourite piece was by Gary Woodley.  He had put geometric lines 
across the staircase space to draw attention to the staircase
transforming from a space inbetween, a space of transition, a space
we pass through on the way to somewhere else into a dynamic space
with tension....... the  black geometric lines encouraged me to 
look at the whole space: the stairs under my feet and the walls and 
ceiling......

QUILTS AT THE V&A




Yesterday I went to the Quilts exhibition at the V&A
where I saw a range of work from the 1700s to the
present day .... of particular interest to me was the
work by current artists who had used quilting
methods to reinterpret quilting.... these artists are:
Jo Budd
Diana Harrison
Dinah Prentice
Pauline Burbidge
Jane Whiteley
