Exhibition review

Most of London's Museums and Galleries are free and because of the plenty it is impossible to see everything! I want to show you some impressions of what I visited so far.
You can click on the names to go to their website. And please excuse the little picture chaos – I can't figure out how I can simply place the pictures where I want them to be … I tried my best with that appliance.


Whitechapel Gallery

Installations, videos, pictures, … anybody will find something interesting. It has premiered international artists such as Pablo Picasso, Frida Kahlo, Jackson Pollock, Mark Rothko and Nan Goldin.

British Museum

Illustrates and documents the story of human history and culture from all continents with e.g. ancient sculptures and paintings.

Hunterian Museum at the Royal College of Surgeons

Impressive collection of anatomical, pathological and zoological specimens, including a skeleton of the 2,30m tall 'Irish giant' Charles Byrne. The contents of preserving glasses are sometimes not good for the faint-hearted!

The National Gallery

A great chance to see paintings known from art class in real! See what they've got

"The Ambassadors" by Hans Holbein

White Cube

A smaller gallery with contemporary art in UK.

Victoria and Albert Museum (V&A)

Named after Prince Albert and Queen Victoria. Decorative arts and design from ancient times to the present day. In virtually every medium, from the cultures of Europe, North America, Asia and North Africa.

The other way round ;)

"Designing the Extraordinary"

On my way to V&A through the subway, the buskers' music in the long tunnel aroused a magic mood, I felt like being in a film.
