Roy Lichtenstein @Tate


 I woke up to the most beautiful day today in London town, so I thought there was no better thing to do than pop on my Saturday style clothes and make my way to the South bank, aka where the Tate Modern is located.

It's the last few days of the Roy Lichtenstein Retrospective and I would be a silly billy to miss it. I love the Tate Modern Building, an old factory/warehouse its on an epic scale and makes me fell like an ant (which isn't hard I admit seeing as I'm 5ft1 ha). Anyways its the perfect space to hold modern art.








Look at this view it's amazing, loving the voluminous clouds, lucky it didn't rain few.




So I picked up a Press Package and in I went....



The exhibition was a serious experience, very engaging and exactly what I was in the mood for. Lichtenstein was at the for front of Pop Art and this retrospective showed over 125 of the artists most definitive paintings and sculptures.






Spreed over 13 rooms ad all carefully curated:

  1. Brushstrokes
  2. Early Pop
  3. Black and White
  4. War and Romance
  5. Landscape
  6. Modern
  7. Art About Art
  8. Artists Studio
  9. Mirrors and Entablatures
  10. Perfect/Imperfect
  11. Late udes
  12. Brushstokes Still Life - Abstraction
  13. Chinese Landscapes



I'm a sucker for a sculpture and this naughty lady caught my eye.





Above is Ceramic Sculpture 7, I love it, the leaning tower of Pisa of cups ha!














Wham....



Sunrise or Sunset this sent my mind back to Cornwall, great memories!!! For me that's what great art should do, it should make you connect/relate to it in your own personal way. That's why Art is so amazing, there is no right or wrong, it's just what you make of it.

Truly this was one of the funnest and exciting exhibitions I have been to in a while. Vibrant, uplifting and energetic, it totally complemented my mood.  

On my way home I was bouncing around on a high and picked up my dress for Royal Ascot, Myrtle off White Reiss Dress. I couldn't believe me luck when I found this usually this is weeks of fussing, but this was easy breezy, all in all the perfect day.
