Re: Public Art
This sort of public art is an abomination
Town centre is canvas for graffiti artists - News - Accrington Observer
..to think that they are now being taught how to do graffiti, using valuable education resources.....words fail me ...........

Because of your reminder Moon, did go up there this afternoon and view again the wonderful Tiffany collection.
There was an exhibition 'For the love of Making Books' . Artists' books in a wide range of media, they were lovely.
Sat out in the sunshine afterwards, and a family were talking about the Panopticans, (the gallery offer a leaflet on 'The Panoptican trail' ) but for the sake of Gayle's feelings, will not repeat what they said LOL. They did like the one at Rawtenstall though.
