Spent a morning walking the route of the Norwich Art Path with the great support team and artists Nicola Turner, Dougie Evans, Daisy Henwood, Liz McGowan and Maddie Exton. The walk will take people on a journey from @norwich castle to @sainsbury Centre. It was inspiring to hear everyone’s ideas and discuss possibilities. Ending up at the Sainsbury Centre meant that I got to see the excellent Empowering Art: Indigenous Creativity and Activism from North America’s Northwest Coast and a very moving project by Julian Stair: Art, Death, and the Afterlife. Both shows give you lots to think about. An afternoon in London of breathing in - a range of shows - some on the plan and others ‘collateral damage’ due to proximity! Bomb factory - Mat Collishaw - glorious animatronic dystopia. Gagosian - Richard Wright - pattern and books. Sadie Cole - Richard Prince - repetitively darkly witty. Frith st gallery - Polly apfelbaum - playful symmetry. ICA - R.I.P Germain - like a sinister Mike Nelson. White Cube - Marguerite Humeau - stunning smelling sculptures. More Yayo windows at Louis Vuitton and still enjoying the monolithic, temporary facade at Burberry. Onto screens Rye Lane is a gentle love story around familiar streets - lovely. In the middle of the twisted tale that is Rabbit Hole - dark wft moments. And Station Eleven's bleakness is slightly wearing - confusion reigns.
