Last week when I was in Birmingham, I popped over to the Ikon Gallery to take a look at their current exhibition.
It's been a while since I've been in a gallery, so it was nice to see what they had on. It was a two floor exhibition highlighting the work of Atsuko Tanaka, including paintings, drawings and and installation.
I had never heard of this artist before visiting the gallery, but the exhibition was well curated and I left with some new found knowledge. The rounded painting shown in the image below was actually wired up to some motor, so after you pressed a button, the canvas spun around in a clockwise direction. I've seen a lot of art in my time, but never a spinning painting!
I love this artistic expression. Thanks for sharing the photos and feel free to drop by me too, soon.
