anish kapoor
Went to see anish kapoor at Royal Academy with celia last friday.
Anish Kapoor @ RA
had a looooovely time! went after work, double espressoed up, and was good to go. I think we were there over 2 hours!. when i first heard about the exhibit, i didn't think it would really be my thing. contemporary sculpture isn't something I really know about. But the work really engaged me. it probably helped that i watched a bbc programme about the exhibit before going. don't think i'm able to articulate why i enjoyed it so much. I just really liked looking at a lot of it.
The two really exciting pieces are a big f-ing block of wax that slowly travels on rails between the 5 back rooms of the RA, and a canon that is fired every 20 minutes and sends wax shooting into a corner. it was actually great going at a very busy time and having the crowd really into it as well. me and celia waited like an hour to see the big block of wax travel from one room to another. it's interesting to me that they let him throw red wax all over the place.
ahh.. love 'culture' in london. sadly, it's getting a bit pricey for me and will have to stay at home more..
we did thanksgiving last saturday. will post pics later as i lost my camera at joao's house. he said he found it though so, crossing fingers, hopefully i'll get it back soon
