[ART FRIEZE 2012] Pictures of People Looking at Pictures

Art Frieze 2012 took place in London over the weekend. A corner of Regents Park (actually 2, one for the main hall, and one for the Masters) was taken over by 2 temporary marquees: a weekend space for buyers, sellers, & the lay public with a general interest in art and culture (I fit into the latter category of course ;) The visiting public consisted of a lot of beautifully stylish people, & I loved almost taking pictures of people looking at pictures, more than looking at the pictures themselves!

I'm afraid I'm a bit rubbish at noting down all the artists, but here's a few things I can remember:

[pic 1] the composition may be out, but 3 people looking at one piece of art instantly reminded me of Ferris Bueller, this scene!

[3] looked like an Orla Kiely print (but wasn't)

Taste London

This week has been one of utter gluttony, topped off with an afternoon spent at the Taste London food festival in Regents Park: sooo much quality food & produce, Jamie Oliver doing a cooking demo involving a guinness cheesecake, spotting Gary Rhodes at the back of his stall, & getting a signed book by one the master chefs Michel Roux jr (it's a family business for the Roux clan: Gavroche was the first restaurant in Britain to gain 3 Michelin stars, & of course they developed the classic Roux sauce..)

I also picked up some lovely olive oil from this place, perfect for cooking with, but delicate & strong enough for dipping breads in..

One day, I swear I'll wake up fat.
