After the previous post about naturism, here’s a quick post about, simply, nature. Richard Long, sculptor, photographer and Turner-prize winner is showing his inspirational sculptures and photographs at Tate Britain in ‘Heaven and Earth’, “a unique opportunity to understand afresh the artist’s radical rethinking of the relationship between art and landscape”.
On until 6 September 2009
His book ‘Heaven and Earth’ is now available in the Focus Hub Shop.

For those of you who live in London, or happen to be visiting, get over to The Wapping Project to see the ‘Unseen: Guy Bourdin‘ exhibition, featuring 32 never-before-seen images from this iconic French fashion photographer.
Despite Guy wanting all of his photographs destroyed after his death (1991), The Wapping Project founder and director Jules Wright says,
“It is a bit of a conundrum. However, from my point of view, I think the work is extraordinary and it deserves to be seen. It’s so influential and I’m pleased and delighted to be showing it, and for the work to be re-looked at, reappraised, re-thought.”
On until 4 July 2009.
