An excellent day in London with the UAL level 3 and BTEC Art Foundation Diploma Students, now all working on their level 4 Final Major Project.

‘Tracey Emin’ at the White Cube Bermondsey, great gallery and exhibition, lots of discussion and apparently Tracey herself was in the gallery, according to students who are sure that they saw her. Then walked to the Thames via Borough Market and past the old Clink Street prison and Operating Theatre. Then into the Hayward Gallery for Kader Attia - terrific show ‘Museum of Emotion’ and the Dianne Arbus photography retrospective, both inspiring. Then an hour in Tate Modern before all back onto the coach to Somerset. A great way to conclude the term.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY NAN GOLDIN!

We sourced “Ivy in the Boston Garden, Back”, 1973, by contemporary photographer Nan Goldin (b. 1953) to accompany an elegant and iconic photo by William Klein “Painting + Coffee: Simone D’Allencourt, Fabiani”, 1960, a lavish rich and saturated setting of a model seen from the front; the combination of the two images gave added meaning to both photographs.

“While still in college at the School of the Museum School of Fine Arts, Nan Goldin spent two years recording performers at the Other Side, a Boston drag bar that hosted beauty pageants on Monday nights. This black-and-white study of Ivy, Goldin’s friend from the bar, walking alone through the Boston Common is one of the artist’s earliest photographs. The portrait evokes the glamorous world of fashion photography and hints at its loneliness.”

Nan Goldin is a photographer and activist. Her work often explores LGBT subcultures, moments of intimacy, the HIV/AIDS crisis, and the opioid epidemic. Her most notable work is “The Ballad of Sexual Dependency”, a slide show, which documents the post-Stonewall gay subculture and Goldin's family and friends. She lives and works in New York City, Berlin and Paris; her work is a long list of museums around the world including The Tate, Getty, Met, Moma, MFA Boston, Tate

Goldin cites three primary influences on her work: Dian Arbus, Michelangelo Antonioni and Larry Clark.
