I went to the People's History Museum to check whether it is true that my work has been represented amongst Shortlisted artists at the “ Nose” exhibition of the Art of Protest…
That was true! See some photos below:

See the video about Noise Festival below:
“Second, since the super-rich who buy the most expensive contemporary art have been most immune to the financial crisis, and since they also use art as a hedge against the movement of other investments, the top levels of the market have appeared relatively unaffected. The vulgar business of flaunting consumption goes on, while around it everything has changed.”
“Hickey points to the disappearance of the middle class, who leave behind the super-rich and a courtier class, including those unfortunate enough to write about art. The evaporation of the Euro-American middle class, as its professions are automated or outsourced, is one of the great developments of our age, and it has been greatly accelerated by the financial crisis. It attacks not just art but the roots of liberal democracy as the class that defended the system is disenfranchised by it.”
Art world stunned: Second ‘Mona Lisa’ appears to be authentic
“Last year, art experts claimed that Leonardo da Vinci completed a version of the Mona Lisa some ten years prior to that of the famous Mona Lisa painting which hangs in the Louvre in Paris.The original Mona Lisa was...” http://www.examiner.com/video/mona-lisa-leonardo-s-earlier-version http://www.examiner.com/article/art-world-stunned-second-mona-lisa-appears-to-be-authentic “The original Mona Lisa was thought to be the only portrait of Lisa Gherardini (aka Lisa del Giocondo) ever created by the artist, The painting in question, dubbed the Isleworth Mona Lisa, is slightly larger than the famous portrait and has been the subject of debate as to its authenticity, but new revelations may finally end the debate that has continued since the painting's discovery a century ago. According to the Feb. 13, Guardian, “New tests on a painting billed as the original version of the Mona Lisa have produced fresh proof that it is the work of Leonardo, a Swiss-based art foundation has said.”
Mona Lisa: Leonardo's Earlier Version The tests were conducted at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology by a specialist in “sacred geometry.” Italian geometrist Alfonso Rubino. who had previously made extended studies of the geometry of Leonardo's Vitruvian Man [a sketch of a youth with arms and legs extended] after studying the reported copy concluded that the Isleworth portrait “matched Leonardo's geometry and must be his.” Another pessimistic thoughts about today art reflected in this article:
http://www.slate.com/articles/arts/doonan/2012/11/art_basel_why_i_m_not_going_hint_it_s_because_the_modern_art_world_is_the.html“Freud said the goals of the artist are fame, money, and beautiful lovers. Based on my artist acquaintances, I would say this holds true today. What have changed, however, are the goals of the art itself. Do any exist?”
I am fascinated with the Hayward Gallery's Light Show exhibition: Installations by more than 20 international artists, it looks great:

That looks interesting too:

Trip to the Palace Theatre in Manchester
13/04/2013 I went to the Palace Theatre with my child to see the musical Lion King.The show was amazing! The colourful costumes with kinetic mechanisms and decoration were most exciting and fascinating. I enjoyed the show very much as it was useful in terms of observing a newish technology in using lights and a costume design trend in this particular show was fantastic.
Trip to London 19-21/04/2013
I had an exciting journey to London this weekend! I managed to catch in my view Marathon,visited a few museums such as: Madame Tussauds,Pick Me Up Exhibition at Somerset House, Natural History Museum and Southbank Centre Light Show: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/culturepicturegalleries/9835243/The-Hayward-Gallerys-Light-Show-exhibition-Installations-by-more-than-20-international-artists.html#?frame=2465500).I was amazed by wax sculptures of celebrities at Madame Tussauds Museum.The friendly atmosphere at Pick me Up exhibition with opportunity to observe the process of screen printing with a lot of activities for children enhanced our day out. The genius representation of a simple ideas in a sophisticated way at the Light Show was very entertaining.
