who loves the weekend in london?

You do!
You do!
And here’s why:

Damien Hirst: No Love Lost
Wallace Collection, Manchester Square
W1U 3BN
Price: No nuts
Skulls, butterflies and probably something rotting in formaldehyde… Yes, that’s our Damien.
His new exhibition boasts 25 new works which will be displayed amongst the Wallace Collection.
This exhibition will focus on a change in medium, rather than focus and will consist of representative paintings.
So, maybe just a painting of a dead shark instead then?… Who knows! It’s free, so go find out!

Pop Life: Art in a Material World
Tate Modern, Southbank

Andy Warhol claimed “good business is the best art”. The Tate Modern brings together artists from the 80’s onwards who have embraced commerce and the mass media to build their own brands. Pop Life includes obvious choices such as Hirst, Warhol, Takeshi Murakami and Jeff Koons just to name a few…
