Royal Academy Summer Exhibition
Yesterday evening we attended a private viewing of the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition, courtesy of A T Kearney. My attitude towards the exhibition was somewhat marred by reading Brian Sewell's article on it in the Standard, which was scathing to say the least, http://www.standard.co.uk/goingout/exhibitions/summer-exhibition-royal-academy--exhibition-review-8646810.html I did however concur with the darling man, as there was very little in the exhibition that moved me in any way. There was quite a lot of photography on show and I thought that this had more to say than the painting and sculpture which was, by in large, rather tired and dated. Well perhaps I am prejudiced. Here are three photographs of the exterior of Burlington House preceded by two from Piccadilly Arcade.
