jim lambieeeee!!!!


Jim Lambie's new work, Metal Urbain, at The Modern Institute is so frrrrrickin exquisite!! I've been three times so far, definitely one of my favourites at Glasgow International.. And the new Modern Institute space is beautiful too, well worth a visit. Lambie's work just gets better and better. I feel like this exhibition space should be used to hold a wee chilled out rave on a sunny afternoon or something, its such a happy space, and with a bit of bouncy techno and some happy people, it would be a delight :)

ernesto neto - yummy


Ernesto Neto is possibly my favourite artist of all time... And I am still yet to experience the delights of his sculpture installations! I can imagine his work taking me somewhere I have never been before, full of exploration and sensation. Neto's installations offer an overwhelming adventure for the human senses - visually fantastic pieces that you are able to explore, touch, walk on, roll on, lie on, rub yourself against or whatever. I really hope he exhibits in the UK sometime soon. He also uses spices/herbs in his works which allow you to open up more than just your eyes to his work. I can only imagine what it must be like to be in these vast spaces alongside his work... I could quite happily post a hundred images of neto's work on here, but i won't.. Here are some of my favourites, enjoy.
