Exhibition recommendations
This weekend (amongst other things) I have been to two exhibitions at my favourite museum, the V and A, and thought that one or both of them might appeal to you.
‘Kimono: Kyoto to Catwalk’ looks at the history of the kimono, including its place within Japanese society and the impact it has had on world fashion. Many of the vibrant kimonos on display are exquisitely embellished with complex design details and beautiful embroidery. I enjoyed it so much that I am currently thinking about how it can inspire some of our artwork within school. If you have any suggestions, please let me know in the comments box.
‘Cars: Accelerating the Modern World’ looks at how, since the car was invented 130 years ago, it has become one of the most loved and loathed inventions ever. There are several old vehicles, as well as some conceptual futuristic cars, such as the Pop.Up Next, which can be driven like a normal car and also fly, so you need never be stuck in a traffic jam again!
Let me know if you have been to either of these exhibitions, or if you have any exhibitions you would like to recommend, by adding a comment.
