Another fabulous show from the Princess of Pop. Beautiful styling, elegant choreography and sparkly stetsons... what more could you possibly want from a night out at the O2? Kylie, as always, sang her little heart out. A good mix of classics and strong new songs made for a enjoyable set list too! Some nice new reworkings sat well with the 'pop-country' feel of the evening... a nice way to end the summer!
Saturday the 28th - We decided to make the most of being in London and catch up on a bit of culture. One of our favourite Galleries, the Haywood, on the South bank is always a great space to visit.
Space Shifters is a major group exhibition of sculptures and installations that explores perception and space.Featuring
20 artists and spanning a period of roughly 50 years, the exhibition
included innovative, minimalist sculpture from the 1960s as well as
recent works that extend the legacy of this ‘optical’ minimalism in
different ways. It also featured new commissions that have been made in
response to the architecture of the Hayward Gallery. Many of the
artworks in this exhibition have been constructed from translucent materials
such as glass, acrylic and polyester resins. Others involve the use of
reflective materials, including stainless steel, polished bronze and, in
one case, engine oil. Luscious and seductive – and often demonstrating
huge technical accomplishment – these objects act as optical devices
that enable us to see our surroundings in new and unexpected ways. In
bringing together artworks that activate our perception of Hayward’s
unique building, Space Shifters provided a dramatic and fitting conclusion to the gallery’s 50th anniversary year.
