Nicolas Provost and Gregory Crewdson

Yesterday I went to see Gregory Crewdson's Sanctuary Exhibition at the White Cube, I'd seen these photographs previously on Nowness put together in a short film but I don't think you can really appreciate how amazing they actually are until you see them exhibited.























I also went to see Nicolas Provost who is exhibiting at the Haunch of Venison at the moment and was pretty blown away by his work, I think he is a bit of a genius and particularly liked Long Live The New Flesh, I would try and explain it but it is best to just see it for yourself... or have a good look around his website, his work is marvellous.

Also worth a mention is the Richard Green Gallery where there are six original Briget Riley paintings exhibited, well worth a look. Also the SHOWstudio Shop which I have been meaning to visit for a while was very interesting... I saw Nick Knight there too, very exciting, he's a bit of an inspiration to say the least.
