Tate Britain: Your Collection
When  some people hear the word "Tate," they immediately think of Darrin's boss Larry Tate from "Bewitched." Those people we do not address now. For those who think—just possibly—of the marvelous art gallery Tate Britain, read on. The Tate has set up an amusing page where you can create your own painting collection drawn from their holdings. They've built six as an example, featuring themes such as "I've Just Split Up" (includes JMW Turner's "Sunrise"), "Odd Faces" (includes this guy, who works in the bookstore), and "I'm an Animal Freak" (includes Hogarth's "The Painter and His Pug.") In creating your own, choose six works from roughly 70 provided, then send them off with a description to interested parties via email. Should you visit London, print out a leaflet to guide you as you traipse around the museum scrutinizing each of your chosen works. (in Visual Arts) |
