Visit to the Tate

A piece by Richard Long
After finishing the 2nd posting at Qaran Express off Camden Road and doing mostly packing I decided to take the 88 bus to Tate Britain, to see the Richard Long’s exhibit ¨Heaven and Earth.” My friend Alistair Johnson, who works at the TB as a frame restorer had been quite passionate about his work and about the show. I was a bit more skeptical, earth art, walking piles of stones photographed… BUT, important to see before broadcasting a Yea or Nay. I am extremely glad I went even for the final hour on Sunday afternoon. It was a beautifully hung and presented. The impressive giant wall mud paintings done in situe linked rooms of documented walks and maps.
