Excellent tour of The Golden Lane and Barbican Estates yesterday. Here's the monochrome set: https://flic.kr/s/aHBqjAvf2W Some colour images will follow when I get back from today's tour but these places lend themselves to monochrome... #monochrome #Photography #London #Barbican #BlackAndWhite

As the #Barbican prepares for its major #AliceNeel retrospective, here's a great story about the #artist.
When curator John Perreault wanted to include her work in a show he was preparing of #nudes, she painted him naked as her contribution to the show...
a great #feminist moment; taking the male gaze & turning it on itself, while also denying a privileging of the naked female subject (as aesthetic choice)...
so looking forward to this exhibition!

THROWBACK THURSDAY ART
Postwar Modern Exhibition at the Barbican March-June 2022. This monumental exhibition was an extraordinary homage to artists, many non-white, many of whom emigrated to Great Britain shortly after the War to make a life of art in the country that had colonised their own. Curator Jane Alison's eye was visionary.
My father F.N. Souza's art can be seen at 0'57" and in the final shot of the video.

No good reason why I should like this photo. I just do. And that reminds me that I haven't been to the Barbican in ages 😭

So another year dawns. Not making any resolutions apart from not to make resolutions which I invariably don't keep anyway. Well maybe spontaneity (is that a word?) is the key 🔑 this time round. Off to see New Year's Day Parade then to the New Year day gala at the Barbican #NYD #CLASSICALMUSIC #barbican
