My review on a Tate Modern exhibition


At Tate Morden in the exhibition of ‘Transformed Vision’ the room focused on was ‘Gerhard Richer’s Cage 1-6’ created by Mark Godfrey. The Theme and process of the pieces that was in the room were influenced by John Cage, as it was his music he was listening to when these compositions where composed and also named the pieces after. The piece were laid out in the sequence of 1-6, each one has been created in same treatment just in different directions and the use of different colours. The collection had really got my attention not just by the size of each one but the use of colours but the way each one creates a different mood such as reflections sounds and calming motions but all still pleasant to gaze at. As it would be difficult draw/Sketch one of these it’s an great influence to create one of your own. As it happens I had created a piece using a plate-knife with acrylics paints and I will be more than willing to use the same instruments and techniques as the artist has used.
