Sorry for this belated response - to you and Dark Puss - but I've just come across a pile of comments in my spam box.<br />I enjoyed Hockney, though I seem to remember that I went to the Nash exhib on the same day - which was silly of me, far too much to take in. But even Hockney's little iPad sketches make me feel good. <br />Giacometti isn't one of my favourites either Dark Puss - but enjoyed this when I went. Seems ages ago now! One of the exhibitions I've most enjoyed this summer is British Realism in Edinburgh - which I'm guessing you'd hate!

I was very pleased to see the Giacometti, though he certainly isn't one of my favourite C20 artists.Dark Pusshttp://morganas-cat.tumblr.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-731398893178184544.post-23316409891362211212017-05-16T08:02:58.612+01:002017-05-16T08:02:58.612+01:00Totally agree, Tate Mod is awful, totally unconduc...Totally agree, Tate Mod is awful, totally unconducive to looking at painting, a nightmare of a place, even worse cause the stairs and lifts can't cope with crowds. <br />Tate Brit is much more civilised. What did you think of the Hockney ? Some good colour pencil drawings, especially of poor Ossie. <br /><br />I enjoyed the first half, but after the double portraits felt he lost it...and the boredom showed...<br /><br />Best, Ash<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-731398893178184544.post-12466666085017588212017-05-12T12:41:38.858+01:002017-05-12T12:41:38.858+01:00It's easy if you live in London, Veronica - if...It's easy if you live in London, Veronica - if I had to make a day trip, I'm not sure how much I'd get done!
