It’s the annual Frieze art show in Regents Park, which as
always is accompanied by the excellent Sculpture Park in the English Garden.
The show is an eye watering £35 to visit so the alfresco, ‘free’ sculptures are
a welcome sight.
The Sculpture Park is always worth visiting. You can take
the Flann O’Brian attitude to the work, “Your
talk is surely the handiwork of wisdom because not one word of it do I
understand” or approach it from the
same perspective as the small children in the park, who when confronted by a
video installation featuring the bare backside of artist Martin Creed, just
laughed out loud.
It was fascinating to hear one small child ask her
parents why Mickey Mouse was so sad. The children had become engaged in the
work even if the adults were only interested in taking ‘snaps’ on their i-phones.
(I think I have to be included in this category).
