I was really pleased to hear that artists Gilbert and George had assembled an exhibition of some of their old work at their gallery just off Brick Lane and I popped along to see it a few weeks ago …
It’s entitled DEATH HOPE LIFE FEAR …
Here are some of the works on display …
Lots of goodies on sale in the shop …
Had a nice holiday in Wales a few weeks ago, starting in beautiful Tenby …
Then making a pilgrimage to Laugharne and Dylan Thomas’s writing shed …
Inside is an evocative reconstruction – his poor wife Caitlin had to sell the original contents to pay debts after his death …
Nearby is the boathouse where he lived …
Then to Cardiff with its castle …
Nearby living accomodation …
… with extraordinary Victorian era decoration …
The beautiful library …
In the grounds is the long and very atmospheric World War II air raid shelter, with siren and bomb sound effects …
Frightening times …
I love these old posters, lots of the messages aimed at women …
Cardiff is a great City to visit and a pleasure to walk around. We enjoyed a lovely, interesting four days there.
Incidentally, came across these little chaps in Laugharne …
Seemed to be enjoying themselves!
