This week I had a trip out to London. During my trip, I went to the London College of Art to visit
their exhibition that is celebrating 175 years of the school. It showcased some
of their previous students work such as Christopher
Bailey and Henry Moore. If I’m
honest I didn’t know what to expect; the exhibition was quite big and consisted
of different kinds of art, sculpture and a bit of fashion. I had a little mooch
around and found some items and pieces really interesting-I didn’t know very
many artists there but there were plenty of different pieces to keep you intrigued.
The exhibition is free to enter and it was prohibited to take pictures-though
I did take a few!
I found this
sculpture quite intreeging. I don’t know its significance but I enjoyed looking
at it. The smoothness of the circular forms and being made in a stainless
steels gives it an appealing visual look.

Thought by Tony Cragg 2002
I loved this sculpture, I found it really eye catching and
different. I don’t know what the meaning is but I understood it as a protective
significance as the tiger was growling and shoots out spikes of protection.

A couple of painting I did like was these ones;
I didn’t realize until after, but they are painted by the musician
Ian Dury. I thought they were very
different to what else was in the gallery. I found them quite feministic to
begin with but now I am wondering if there was another meaning behind them.
(And I did Google Jemima Proust and from what I can gather
she isn’t a real person!)
