1st anniversary today of Angela 'Bunny' Wynn's death. A legendary figure in our artworld who is deeply missed. She stood up for British Art for decades at the RCA. Although she didn't live to see the successful transition to Saatchi Gallery she was there planning last year's fair to the end. Our last lunch together - with Gay Hutson, co-founder of the fair, Johnny and I - was, fittingly, at the Gallery's restaurant. Although she didn't live to see the move it was surely the alchemy of the great partnership of Gay Hutson and Bunny that ensured the fair went on and she won't be forgotten.

Seen this week 'Hill and Park' until 16 July. @frestoniangallery an excellent selection of mainly graphic works by the many great British artists who live or have lived in locally to the gallery. "( In 1945) Patrick Heron moved to the bomb-crater strewn capital and made his home in the two upstairs floors of 53 Addison Avenue. From that ‘first footing’ of the artistic ‘moment’ that this exhibition seeks to define, explore and celebrate there has never been a point in the 75 years hence that this small, residential area has not been host to at least one (and more usually several) of the most prominent artists in the world."

We rediscovered this Duncan Grant masterpiece, 'Bathing', @tate Britain this weekend. The instagram reproduction doesn't do justice to its monumental scale and lively composition. Commissioned by the Borough Polytechnic for their dining room, Grant created a then controversial panorama of seven Michelangelo-inspired male nudes bathing. Painted at the time when the Serpentine's swimming lido, then restricted to male visitors, acted as the un-official sight-seeing spot for gay men. A blatant reference. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Whilst on a Charleston note, Charleston festival begins this Friday. A great programme for its 30th edition, including talks by Peter Blake and Martin Gayford and Grayson and Phillipa Perry.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

A stunning shot of Anthony Caro's 'Double Tent' (1987), currently installed at @cliveden_national_trust as part of a six month exhibition of the artist's work within its grounds, curated by Amanda Renshaw. Seeing the monumental steel structure set against the backdrop of Buckinghamshire's rolling hills and capturing the sun's light (on a nice day..) makes a nice change from viewing it within the four walls of a white cube gallery. Though if you are in London, do visit @annelyjuda's show of Caro's sculptures spanning 60 years, open until 6th July.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

'Personal Structures- identities', a Biennale exhibition in its fifth edition at the European Cultural Centre, presents a wide selection of works from emerging and internationally-renowned artists, photographers and sculptors. Included in the exhibition this year, British artist Ania Hobson, winner of the Young Artist Award at the BP Portrait Awards 2018. Hobson uses a piece of charcoal at the end of a long stick when sketching so she can work at arm's length and avoid getting bogged down in the detail. This stage of her process introduces a strong sense of perspective to her compositions, which in this self-portrait is so successful.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
