«Mais où sont les revolutionnaires, Trevor?» «Ils sont tous skiving, innit Beryl. Au lit, pour le forty winks chaque jour!» «Paf! C'est alright pour some, eh?» #paris #may1968 #mai1968 #poster #posters #graffiti #student #sorbonne #franglais

Autumn is mostly made up of diagonals. I think it’s scientifically accurate to say that. Yes, yes it is, I’m 110% sure. #Autumn #photo #garden #diagonal #science #inaccuracy

OK, Mary. Toffees - yep, like those. Fudges - okay, maybe sometimes but not with the toffees, thanks. Chocolates - lovely but really not right now Mary, not after those toffees and fudges. And sweets. AND SWEETS? What are you trying to do, Mary, kill me? Your book should carry a health warning. What do you mean, ‘Not all at the same time’??? #cookery #confectionery #paperback #food #publishing #books

Did Henry Moore really make slides for children’s playgrounds? Maybe *every* Henry Moore is a slide in a way (but only if you can slide down it without the gallery staff noticing, eh?). #henrymoore #sculpture #art #1960s #photo #sixties

The exterior of Tate Britain still shows the damage it suffered during the wars - the Abstractionists vs the Pop-ites during the mid-1960s (after which abstraction was forced into chilly exile, i.e. the art schools); the Performance Artists vs the Rest of the World in the 1970s (abandoned due to utter indifference); and the Brief Scottish Figurative Invasion of the mid-1980s (which ended terribly for all concerned, and without anyone capitalising on the lucrative t-shirt merchandising rights). #art #Tate #tatebritain #auerbach #architecture #frankauerbach #news #london #artschool #exhibition

This is Frank Auerbach in his studio in the 1960s, as depicted in the catalogue for the Tate show. I’m guessing that the message we’re supposed to take from this photo of the impressively regular Mr Auerbach is that he was (and probably still is)… impressively regular. #branflakes #frankauerbach #tate #tatebritain #artist #studio #fibre
