Materials workshop.01/02/2011

Thank's to everyone that came prepared for the day, I enjoyed it. I do think that having tutorials before hand was helpful in terms of supplying you with appropriate materials. I am posting some of the painting experiments if any one else has any photographs I will post those up also. Please post any questions about the materials that we used on the day, where to get them...Most importantly you should be asking each other these question's now as you are the experts. Sarah.

His work - which often deals with heavy historical subjects like the Holocaust and postcolonial guilt - resists easy interpretation. So fans and the creatively curious alike will be delighted by the Whitechapel Gallery 's launch of On & By Luc Tuymans , a collection of Tuyman's writings (one of them is appropriately entitled, "I Still Don't Get It") on not only his own ideas and images, but those of El Greco, Giorgio Morandi, and Neo Rauch, to name a few. Edited by historian-publisher Peter Ruyffelaere, it also includes critical essays, dialogues and interviews by art historians, critics, and artists like Ai Wei Wei and Takashi Murakami.
