London, 12-14 October 2009

When in London for a short business trip, i managed to squeeze in an afternoon at the Tate Britain. The 2009 Turner prize was there, together with an exhibition of the painter, JMW Turner. However, what really got my attention were the long term collection of the Tate. I humbly stood before some of the splendid portraits of John Singer Sargent. I managed to take two pictures with my phone before I was stopped by museum security.

The Pop Life exhibition was at Tate Modern, but silly me couldn't figure out the way there and was too tired and so gave it a miss. All i got of the exhbition was a picture of the poster in the underground!!! I didn't get to see much of London central cos my work was largely at a hotel at the airport. oh well, next time then.

The flowers outside the Tate Britain were beautiful :) Very modest non-showy pretty. I don't see enough flowers in Singapore!!!!
