The art of protest #brexit #peoplesvote #peoplesvotemarch #protest #protestsigns
Very dark stuff indeed: Djurberg & Berg exhibition at @schirnkunsthalle explores the seedier side of life using claymation and other materials/techniques typically associated with fun and playfulness. #contemporaryart #videoart #frankfurt #schirn #gallery #curator #womenartists #djurbergberg #artwatchers #animation #gallery
This is the late work of sculptor Bruno Gironcoli which is on show at @schirnkunsthalle in #Frankfurt
The #pierrebonnard exhibition at @tate may not knock your socks off, but what I think the artist is good at is presenting views of the natural world from the perspective of looking out a window or door or from a terrace or balcony. His earlier work - large scale murals, panels paintings, etc installed in houses- attempted to bring the outside in by depicting families in their gardens. All of his interior ‘decorative’ work drew on patterns he saw in nature. #modernart #painting #curator #artwatchers #nabis #vuillard #impressionism #postimpressionism #paris #museum #gallery #tatemodern #london
