Laura and I went to the Tate Galleries where historic British art (a lot of Turner) is displayed. I thought this hall was pretty cool; neat way to show the pictures.
This piece is called Inverse, Reverse and Perverse. It was like looking into a giant spoon, and then when we moved, a funhouse mirror. It was quite entertaining!
And here is Laura as a North American Indian chief. The head-dress was made out of pieces from the car door, ironing board and washing machine, interweaving traditional and western cultures. I suppose Laura blends right in!
The National Gallery is a busy museum. It's full of great paintings by European artists from the13th through the 19th centuries. Laura and I used the audioguide tour (which was excellent) and hit the top 50 or so.
Lunch in Trafalgar Square. Behind Laura is Lord Nelson on top of a giant column.
Trafalgar square is London's main venue for rallies and marches. There were many street artists performing on the day we went. These characters were one of many human statues.
