We caught a boat to the Tate Modern from Greenwich. It takes about 10mins and lands you almost at the door. We walked around the Surrealism and Beyond exhibition as Iris slept. Sara and I spotted a few gaffs in the exhibition:
Firstly Paul Nash. Is this guy treally an artisit or just related to the curator? He had one picture that looked like shabby result of a GCSE Art & Design student after taking their first mushroom trip and 'really getting into surrealism'. It was utter tosh. This surely cannot be a real, acclaimed artist?
Secondly, Joan Miro: Brilliant but is it strictly speaking Surrealism? Andre Breton described him as 'The Most Surrealist of us all'. However, his work just seemed out of place in this exhibition.
Anyway we wandered along the Southbank and paid a visit to The Real Greek Souvlaki and all unconsciously agreed, whilst silently devouring our kebabs, that ultimately food was better than art.
