Hey everyone,
Today was a good day. I went to the Royal Academy of Arts to take a look at the new exhibition for Georg Baselitz. What a strange man. I walked in the gallery to find that all his works were produced upside down and most of his old works have been made into 'Remix' paintings, exact modern copies where the colours and styles are altered. My favourite works were his pencil and ink portraits. They have a very Quentin Blake feel to them (the guy who illustrates Roald Dahl books). You can see his piece 'Oberon' posted above which was his largest piece there excluding all the deformed sculptures of men and women. This exhibition is a must-see, possibly one of the most interesting i've been to. It was certainly much better than the mind draining exhibition of Leonardo Da VInci at the Victoria and Albert Museum.. what a bore!! (despite the fact he is a genius, they could have made the exhibition a bit more lively..)
At the end of my visit i treated myself to some sushi from Japan Center across the road, yum yum.
I also did a sketch at home before i left, with reference from Men's Health mag. See you guys tomorrow!
