Day 6 Essay Prep' with Rod

 On Friday we were given a whirlwind introduction to how we might address the essay that is to be submitted this term. We had a canter through Modern Art from Picasso (and Braque's) work with real materials in collage - the use of Newspapers and the like including artists such as Mondrian and Paolozzi but the artist who's work  created some controversy in the group was Tom Friedman who is considered a Conceptual artist and who we were told is able to command substantial sums of money for his work.

The exhibition is of material held by the British Museum and chronologically visitors can see the work of the artist developing.  Of course much as Mona Lisa dictates a certain link with Leonardo Da Vinci so 'The Great Wave is forever Hokusai - There are quite a number of prints from the blocks of the famous woodcuts The British Museum has 3 of them and the vintage of them can be seen by the quality of the print (older ones have bits missing) Craft Week  After Design week it' time for the Artisans and London had a week of craft kickin...
