milesy said:there's an exhibition of Chiho Aoshima's work at gloucester road tube station at the moment. it was supposed to finish in january but i went through there on thursday of last week and it was still up
I keep meaning to go down there.
Is it in the tube station or can I get the bus and still have a look?

milesy said:i think it's only on the platforms, so you'll have to actually go down into station to look. but i could be wrong, i've only ever seen it from the train window
Oh :\ Thats a pain it means I'll have to pay to get the tube
I also really like charlie White but there's just not enough of his stuff out there!

I like his work, but I'm not certain I like him. There was a big controversy about allowing tourists to take pictures of the "the Bean". They wanted to make you get written permission and pay a fee of $150 to take pictures due to his attenpt to enforce his copyright to the full extent. I can see not allowing pictures within a museum, but out on the street, you just have to expect and allow it.

I saw some work in Omaha and it was rather frightening to round this corner and run into a Virgin Mary encrusted with burnt-looking flowers odd drippings. It looked like someone had been burnt alive on the spot.

When I first saw his work, I assumed it was by a woman, but when I met him, I was suprised to find he was a man.

I have a definite soft spot for Anton Corbijn, photographer of Ian Curtis...

...and pretty much everyone in between. According to David Bowie he "couldn't take a bad picture if you poked both his eyes out and broke his lens".
