We’ll meet at 11am tomorrow in Millennium Bridge. through some research St. Paul’s Cathedral just needs take 7 minutes by walk. So, I plan to go to there after our meeting to see a typical Baroque building.
After that I can go to Tate modern, there are 3 exhibition and display I want to explore.
The first is Olafur Eliasson-In real life. According the introduction I found the artist’s artwork is deeply exploring society and the environment area, we can find out ‘what an artist’s perspective can bring to issues of climate change, energy, migration as well as architecture.’ I also found that Tate and Eliasson is doing a project about a system for recycling old T-shirts which is recycle from visitors (The website has mention that bring old t-shirts into Tate Modern for reuse or recycling and can get a 20% discount on an Olafur Eliasson exhibition). It is relevant to the project we’re working on.
The second is Explore Material and Objective. It’s in the Natale bell building level 4 west. Why I choose this display, because there is an artwork named Fountain by Marcel Duchamp in 1917 that mentioned in our class. And in this display, I display I can examine wide variety of materials used by modern and contemporary artists to explore why an artist might choose them and what associations they bring with them.
The third is Media Network. I want to know how the artists impact of mass media and the ever-changing technologies over the past hundred, thought that maybe I can think the art of the future would be like.
Looking forward to the trip tomorrow
