Finally saw the Eduardo #paolozzi exhibition at the @whitechapelgallery today. Full of brilliant work from the early messy collages through to the mess-with-your-head screen prints of the 1970s. Even the late head sculptures are pretty special in their way. Last few days remaining so run run run if you want to see it. #exhibition #artist #art #1940s #1950s #1960s #1970s #collage #screenprinting #drawing #sculpture #eduardopaolozzi #eastend #london #gallery #whatson (at Whitechapel Gallery)

Remember at school when kids used to graffiti over their textbooks? Well, that has inspired my new album-as-books print, for Talking Heads’ ‘Stop Making Sense’. It’s available via the link in my bio. #talkingheads #davidbyrne #tinaweymouth #chrisfrantz #jerryharrison #stopmakingsense #concert #concertmovie #livealbum #newwave #artrock #bookstagram #graffiti #graffitiart #schoolbook #textbook #shelfie #literature #giftideas #fans #80s
