Pablo

Picasso that is. @ The British Museum. Etchings made neoclassicism stylee (c.1930s) for the Vollard Suite, when he was shagging his muse and model Marie-Thérèse Walter. (I can see his willy).



“Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.” Pablo Picasso

Peace & Love!

A stroll in Trafalgar Square after the olympics...


Watercolour

By Robert Montgomery. "He hijacks advertising space in the city, often illegally. He covers illuminated advertising billboards with austere black posters with white letters, which assume the colour of the ad posters underneath and take their light, parasitically. His texts are part poetry, part an enquiry into our collective unconscious."

Dashing watercolour purchased from The Art Car Boot Fair currently hanging in my dear friend's beautiful flat. Love this.

Diane Arbus @ The Timothy Taylor

"...Every difference is a Likeness too. There are associations, groups, clubs, alliances, milieus for every one of them. And each milieu is a small world, a subculture with a slightly other set of rules for the game. Not to ignore them, not to lump them all together, but to watch them, to take notice, to pay attention..."

- Diane Arbus (March 14, 1923 – July 26, 1971)
