‘Feast For The Eyes’ The story of food in photography at the Photographers Gallery
Daniel Gordon Work. My pick is Clementines, 2011 on display at the Photographers Gallery 2019.
A stunning exhibition which is a must see for all sorts of reasons.
Well done to the creators.

Some images just stick with you following an exhibition and this one has with me. I originally planned to go to the BP Portrait Award 2019 but when I arrived I was struck by the Cindy Sherman poster. I took the plunge, got my ticket and went in to see the show. It was well worth the visit as so many of the photographs were impactful and emotional. This was definitely my Friday treat.
I needed a strong coffee after this show so another visit is definitely planned for the Portrait Award exhibition
Feeling low? I recommend a coffee first and a trip to the National Portrait Gallery, nice and early, no crowds, no long queues and an opportunity to stand back and soak in an array of beautiful imagery.
Although a charged exhibition, its money worth spending. There will definitely be a photograph, which will take your breadth away. That’s what I look out for. I am not a long browser contemplating every label.
Art provides an opportunity to inspire, ignite and take you on a variety of journeys.
A few weeks into my blog and finding the right words is my challenge. But my cultural landscape continues to inspire me, even on a rainy day.

My next stop was the Barbican and The Curve. ‘Walead Beshty’. I do like exhibitions that ignite so many questions. Cyanotype and blueprints , thank goodness for the internet and the many ‘How to sites’, It now all makes sense and so interesting.
