HEDGE UR BETS

So there was some art.

A new gallery.

The Pangolin.

It had pieces by famous people like Damien Hirst (he conceived the sharks to move) and sarah lucas.

*****

But best is having some food and some football with your dad.

Its funny going to the premier league which is epic… The noise.

After non league which is cheap but dull.

In the middle is lovely cuddly often rubbish @leytonorientfc which has bearable toilets, singing but slightly easier prices.

Hedge your bets?

Have lots of teams.

Then if one loses…

What? They all lost??

Quadruple depression.

But i went with my dad so it was still great.

*****

In the evening it is sometimes ok to watch the telly.

And even if your crushingly lonely if you have a clever staffy* and an i app you can play along with telly quizzes to make u feel 10% better.

Like million pound drop which is all…

Hedge ur bets.

See what i did there?

Love,

Colinxx

MOVING ROUND VERY QUICKLY

Installation.

Being there.

This is the joy of art over tv… radio…

Film at the cinema sits in the middle.

Especially @cineworld wood green…

Its interactive… with calling out…

And multi sensory…

With coke showers.

So whether the installation its Hirstian butterflies in the Tate Modern.

Or curiously phallic/orificy stone sculptures http://www.artfirst.co.uk/  (hey we’re sooo over exposed to arty cocks and fannies thats we’re stained with the freudian) …you get to drift around and say you went.

Sometimes you can drift around v quickly.

We eat up gallery clusters.

Today at eastcastle street (ox circus).

Nice COLOUR photos (and the obligatory moody monochrome)…

It was the young people wot done em.

We also read the surrealists drifted around looking for found objects…

This does not mean… @albiestar… drifting around looking for cash points and finding eighties camp comedians in the buff…

Over exposed indeed…

VIVA LONDON!

A LOOK

Just a quicky on Henry Moore @gagosian.

Big. V big.

Easilly digestable in a lunch hour, a tea break or a look.

If you have a friend they can take a picture of you sticking your head through a hole and put it on @instagram.

We want to know how he makes them. We shall go on Wikipedia.

We have a ‘theory on art’ which we’re saving for the weekend…

Love,

RAINY DAYS AND THURSDAYS

We actually like rainy days and Thursdays.

Writing, radio and Question Time.

Anyway… one of the nice things about galleries is they cluster together for warmth and if its a rainy June day (its June people! June!! And the weathers shit!!!) you can cluster IN them for warmth…

So we went to one and then one rolled into two into three….

Dering Street off Oxford Street is the place to be if your a cool urban sophiticate Staffordshire Bull Terrier on a blog packed halfterm…

Anyway… The one we set off for was ‘Blain Southern.

The exhibition was called ‘Exit from the House of Being.’

Which sounds like a lovely idea.

Our House of Being has shattered glass over the floor but i digress…

Michael Shoo is the artist…

They say: “sculptural works which suggest that space and being are fluid concepts in a constantly shifting state of existence.”

We say… some words: no cock, no fanny, no boobs, blue melting antlers, mirrors, velvet ropes, shields, riots, splattered paint, subversion, upside down, hot assistant…

Which brings us on to something…

We @thedogwhatblogs are endlessly fascinated and endlessly in love with these people…

What are they doing? What is their job? They perch serenely behind apple products looking very aloof and attractive without appearing to do anything.

Anywho… we rock and rolled on to Sergio Fermariello at Ronchini Gallery which was lots of repeated calligraphic images of soldiers which was okay in a cool way.

Before sashaying a couple of doors along to Annely Juda’s ‘Prunella Clough’ exhibition which we really really liked…. cubist blobs and partly formed animals… Nice smiley cheerful fuzzyfelty cute art. The colours and the shapes. Tick..?

love,

Harleyxx
