The Jasper Johns show at @royalacademyarts is well staged and has many of the greatest hits. If you’ve not encountered his work before and if you want to find out how ‘a painting’ can be a verb as well as a noun, check it out. (Some reading required, incl. some Wittgenstein, but that’s the fun end of philosophy so it’s all good). #jasperjohns #royalacademy #royalacademyofarts #london #exhibition #show #painting #art #philosophy #wittgenstein #shop #gallery #thingstodoinlondon (at Royal Academy of Arts)

Well worth a look if you find yourself hanging around at the back of the Royal Academy. #london #gallery #artgallery #pacelondon #jeandubuffet #artbrut #art #painting #french #frenchpainter #modernart #exhibition #thingstodoinlondon #mayfair
