Love it: The Summer Exhibition at The Royal Academy of Arts 2011
One thing that I love to do is go to the Summer Exhibition at The Royal Academy of Arts every year and today with my recovery day after Glastonbury I thought it would the perfect time to go for a little wander.
Every year people from across the country apply for their work to be in the show and some get the chance to be selected to hang their work alongside some famous artists. My favourties are always the Photography and Architectural model rooms which show the different sides of art as just a painting form. The architectural models did not disspoint this year, although I felt that they had been squashed into a small room. There was not as much photography that has been previously, but I guess that as each year is curated by different Royal Academians, then they each have their own idea of art.
I also saw that some of the work that doesn't get selected, gets a second chance at a gallery over near Waterloo, so that might well be my next port of call!
Live it!
