Thank you to @talkart for the push to catch Wong Ping’s exhibition at @camdenartscentre this weekend, sneaking in just before it closed and what a recommendation! Wong won Camden’s inaugural award for an emerging artist at Frieze Focus last year and his show is split between two video works that are hilarious, disturbing, dark, whimsical, naive and just plain filthy at times. Looking forward to seeing what comes for Wong in the future and his crackers cast of digital characters. . . #wongping #wongpingartist #camdenartscentre #camdenartscentreemergingartsprize #videoart #installation #video #film #digitalart #hongkong #hongkongartist #heartdigger

Admiring Timothy Taylor’s glitzy new Mayfair townhouse and this wonderful display of post war works by a medley of some very different artists not only in the way they handled the business of making art but their cultural backgrounds - Pierre Soulages, Antoni Tàpies and Simon Hantaï. Mmph that slurp of Soulages oil... . . #pierresoulages #soulages #simonhantai #hantai #antonitapies #tapies #timothytaylor #timothytaylorgallery @timothytaylorgallery

One of my favourite discoveries from my sojourn in Doha must be Manal Al-Dowayan’s photographs in the permanent collection of the Arab Museum of Modern Art (otherwise known as Mathaf). Born and raised in Saudi Arabia, Al Dowayan’s work is a really arresting commentary on the role of women and how they have negotiated their parts to play throughout history. . . #mathaf #arabmuseumofmodernart #arabmuseumofmodernartdoha #qatarmuseums #qatar #doha #dohaqatar @mathafmodern #manalaldowayan #aldowayan #saudiarabia #saudiarabian

Jean Nouvel’s beautifully curved disks, cantilevered angles and soaring edges that make up the National Museum of Qatar mimic the desert rose and house a spectacular chronology of history, from the prehistoric era to the birth of the oil age. The displays are not quite complete, so I’ll just have to negotiate a return soon to unravel the rest of Qatar’s story! Also spot my other half trying to escape the heat as quickly as possible... . . #qatar #doha #nationalmuseumofqatar #nationalmuseumofqatardoha @nationalmuseumofqatar #desertrose #nouvel #jeannouvel #jeannouvelarchitect #architect #archirecture
