Past the Looking Glass: August 2010
http://journeyofanartlover.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Past the Looking Glass. Journey of an Art Lover. Sunday, 22 August 2010. On my way to the Royal Academy I passed Chanel, Louis Vuitton and other such smart, luxurious shops. My thoughts turned to a past relationship. As well as playing with our desires, the high end pushes and fights for our attention. It is both seductive and disapproving and the Ritz Hotel is tempting to me but also causes anxiety to form in my head. Can I afford to be here? Do I fit in? Do I want to go there? Rather a strong rejection!

Past the Looking Glass: Something in Common
http://journeyofanartlover.blogspot.com/2010/08/something-in-common.html
Past the Looking Glass. Journey of an Art Lover. Saturday, 21 August 2010. The interior nature of the exhibit and the celestial design of the walls completely transported me and it was a surprise as I opened a door to an ordinary looking back space and deduced that it was only two rooms that were part of the show. I left the gallery with all my thoughts and made my way to the busy Summer Exhibition at the Royal Academy. Labels: 2005) ISBN 0-3407-6944-0. Tracey. Strangeland (London: Scepter.

Past the Looking Glass. Journey of an Art Lover. Thursday, 23 September 2010. Labels: David Cernys Pissing Fountain. Monday, 20 September 2010. For the blogger who said – “heavy Eastern European art, impossible to get it, let’s have lunch” I thought I cannot leave my commentary about Czech art without talking about a contemporary artist, and one of my favourites at the moment, David Cerny. These serious comments given in a humorous way are also characteristic of Cerny’s work. He is kind of inte...In the ...

Past the Looking Glass: Protest
http://journeyofanartlover.blogspot.com/2010/10/protest.html
Past the Looking Glass. Journey of an Art Lover. Wednesday, 20 October 2010. If you haven't seen Chto Delat (or 'What To Do' ) at the ICA yet, I reckon you should see it! The exhibition is by a group and looks at Russia after perestroika. There is variety and energy in the show; posters, a newspaper, illustrations on the wall and extra walls and levels. On the news in the evening they discussed why the French could strike and be supported and why the English system makes it difficult and views protests o...

Past the Looking Glass: Roots
http://journeyofanartlover.blogspot.com/2010/09/this-is-odyssey-to-country-my-parents.html
Past the Looking Glass. Journey of an Art Lover. Sunday, 5 September 2010. First I found the folk festival on two large stages in the centre of town. I remember being shown the traditional costumes as a child and learnt about being Czech from it. The cakes, the food, the dolls and toys, cut glass and later beer. There were all nationalities on the stages, showing off their skills. There was something similar about it all and a gentle atmosphere. Even if we might sound pretentious. The interest in light a...
