This week I have been focused on research, discovering two amazing artists Martin Creed and Michael Clark. They are both interiscipliary with all aspects of performing arts, something I am keen on. I Really want to go and see these at the Tate over the Summer as well as the Tracy Emin exhibition at the Hayward Gallery. The telegraph wrote a great review of it.
I did however get to see the exhibition of Peter Blake's Work at the Holbourne Art Museum in Bath this week which was really inspiring. I jotted down lots of notes and sketches AND even got the catalogue! His brain sort of works in the same way as mine does in that he is all about the processes and ideas with collection through a long period of time than an instant final piece. I really love his quirky fascinations with a wide range of subjects from 'Tom Thumb' and the circus to obsessive pop culture of Elvis Presley as well as fine art using found objects. I love his ongoing elephant collection. He gives collecting value and purpose.
