Reith Lecture 2013: Grayson Parry

Only just discovered the joy of Reith Lectures! 
This year is by Grayson Parry, you either love him or hate him. Lectures are interesting as he brings art to our eye level and also discusses many controversial and commercial aspects of contemporary art. He might change my view or educated me to accept contemporary art as what it is. 

I have uploaded the links of each lecture, so please just click to listen. Enjoy it!

Summer exhibition 2013

It was good fun to see lots of random work from diverse group of people. 
Interestingly paintings were still far more popular catch than prints for obvious reasons
but great to see different mediums on display. Grayson Parry's large scale tapestries 
were very good and thought provoking.  
Maybe there is hope for me too!
