Andy and Becky came to stay with us for the weekend and on Saturday morning we took them to the Saatchi Gallery to see The Empire Strikes Back: Indian Art Today, exhibition. It was a fantastic show, nothing really that good individually but just a very fine mix of work, that's very international and visually exciting. The gallery and buildings are also such a brilliant place to see art; great light, space and floors. Ruby loved it too - getting really excited about running around the place and they are cool about taking photos too. Something I strongly disapprove of in principal but is great for my blog.
It was also fantastic to see Richard Wilson's stunning installation 20:50 again. Transferred from Boundary Road, via County Hall, it was like seeing a well-loved old friend again.
