Can’t get to the Warburg Institute for the amazing Tarot: Origins & Afterlives exhibit? Or you went and you want to relive the fun? I can help: I made a video of some photos so you can at least get a feel for it. Expect the usual caveats about photos of things in cases (odd…

Oracles, Omens & Answers
Take a journey with me through time and space — no, not that one! — but to the city of aquatint last month. I made a quick jaunt to London for the tarot exhibit I decided I could not miss and a few other things (more to come…) and because I flew into Luton I…
Conjuring the Spirit World #Salem
A quick jaunt to Salem to meet up with art partner in crime QoE AKA Stephanie just so we could see this exhibit: Conjuring the Spirit World: Art, Magic and Mediums. It was so much fun and if you have a chance to go, be sure to do so! We loved it and got so…
More Tate B
I thought I would include a few things from the Tate B that I wandered past after the main exhibit I wanted to catch because there are so many lovely things (and I think I want to make a video of the Leonora trip, and that will take a minute…). This piece was actually in…
Random London
As it’s Monday and I have a lot to do this week but I don’t want to completely lose track of all the pictures I wanted to share from the London trip — and haven’t had time yet for all the Leonora pix — here are some random pictures to amuse. Not all from London…
London: Yoko, Before
Okay, so I did not post about my first visit to Yoko at the Tate Modern. Or any of the other exhibits I saw last February and they were great. In my defence, there has been a lot going on this past year. I know many of you are in the same boat. But I…
London: Yoko, Again
Yes, again. I would go many times if I could but I could really only squeeze in one more time this short trip. If you are thinking of dropping by be warned, it’s closing the end of the month! I looked at different things this time (I did write it up before, didn’t I? I’ll…
London: BIBA
After a morning at the Tate B I took the boat down to London Bridge, forgetting it was tourist season and it is not as much fun to travel by boat in tourist season. It was worse on the way back west because overloaded boats didn’t pick up any new passengers and that was irksome…
London: Judy Chicago
When I got back from my jaunt to Sussex to see Leonora (yes, soon posting on that — after WorldCon which is occupying my brain space that wasn’t occupied by Be Surreal) I realised I was overly-peopled and exhausted by doing new things [and head full of Leonora which is quite a thing] so I…
London: Expressionists
The first afternoon in London I had planned to go to the Fashion & Textile Museum but forgot just how much worse afternoon traffic in The City has become especially with summer road works so when the bus announced it was ending the route at St Paul’s and going no further I took it as…
