A review of Gaia, a work by Luke Jerram on display at the Painted Hall/Old Royal Naval College in Greenwich. In which contemplating the entire world encourages me to slow down and appreciate the view. He’s Got The Whole World… This is a very simple exhibition at its heart.

A review of a recent visit to the Estorick Collection in Islington, including their exhibition Italian Threads: MITA Textile Design 1926-1976.

Reviews of two small, free, and interesting exhibitions at the National Gallery – Jan Gossaert’s Adoration vs. Jan Matejko’s Copernicus.

I was very pleased, therefore, that Tate Britain […]
