|| Art Trip || London Tate Modern & Tate Britain ||

As part of my Fine Art course at college, we are lucky enough to go on plenty of trips to various galleries, many of which are in London. Last week a large group of the art students, ranging from the AS & A2 level students to the B-Tech Diploma students, embarked on a trip to two London Galleries: Tate Modern & Tate Britain.

Theres something so enticing about art galleries, particularly for me those of modern art. They really open up your eyes to so many types of art and helps you to explore new artists. Galleries are a cultural experience that stimulates the brain in a way that only art can: a creative yet intelligent way.

I thought I would post some of the pictures I took from the trip, just to show my readers what spectacular and wonderful art both these galleries contain.

Tate Modern

Jannis Kounellis || Untitled

Joseph Beuys || Monument to the Stag

Picasso || The Weeping Woman 

Hrair Sarkissian || Education Sqaures

Gerhard Richter || Cage (1) - (6)

Lorna Simon || Five Day Forecast

Miyako Ishiuchi || Yokosuka Story

Niki de Saint Phalle || Shooting Picture

Project Space: Inverted House

This particular project I found so completely inspiring and wonderful. The whole collection was absolutely wonderful. My own current project is Space & Place so I found this particular collection to be so motivating and stimulating.

Tina Gverović || Parastates

L.S Lowry || The Old House, Grove Street, Salford

As part of my project within art I am using Lowry as part of my art analysis and inspiration.

BP Spotlights: Joshua Reynolds, The Age of Innocence
Link

Eileen Agar || Angel of Anarchy

Yuri Suzuki || Juke Box Meets Tate

I don't really know how to explain how wonderful this room was, but what I can say is that I just didn't want to leave it. Everything about it was so amazing, the lighting from juke-boxes cascading the room and the soft tunes coming out of them (note: which you could choose.)

Me and my friends chose Sunday Morning || Velvet Underground and spent several minutes just taking in the atmosphere of this piece.
