Sculpture

Yoko Fukada, photo by Miki Yamanouchi
To Southwark last night for the private view of the Jerwood Sculpture Competition entries, where Yoko Fukada has the honour of being the first student ever to be nominated for this prize.

I had not realised what social events art shows are nowadays. The place was packed with faces with raised eyebrows, excited grins and wine or beer glasses: it was a challenge to work my way round the exhibits. I thought I detected a correlation between the entries and the entrants’ notes on them. Some pieces spoke to me directly; their makers had noted sources of inspiration. Other pieces seemed somewhat contrived (but don’t listen to me, I’ve never been a fan of conceptual art as a category) and their makers had thought it best to be helpful in noting all the associations that might be teased out of the work.

Pizza Afterwards with Ruth Eisenhart to meet other friends of the late Nicholas Battye at a restaurant he frequented opposite the British Library. Had he been with us, we would have been celebrating his 55th birthday.

Nick’s books Good news about his library and papers. They are to go to Canonbury Tower, where they will be available in a dedicated reading room, courtesy of the Marquess of Northampton. Lord Northampton hopes one day to offer at Canonbury Academy an MA course in mysticism and esoteric studies; Nick’s library would then be the nucleus of the academy’s collection. In the meantime, the Canonbury Masonic Research Centre offers lectures and an annual conference.
