ArtSpam Favourites: March 2022

So, we’ve had an interesting month in art. We’ve gone to the deepest darkest depths of despair in Francis Bacon ‘Man and Beast’ exhibition at the Royal Academy of Arts all the way to Dulwich to see some rather stunning Gainsboroughs and a few members of the Old Masters crowd. But that’s not all, I did get to hang out at a few art fairs, first of all was the independent Connect Art Fair hosted at the Mall Galleries in London as well as the Chelsea Fine Art and Antiques Fair. the former was great fun, its always good to have a browse and a rummage in the art world to find a piece that means I have top have another re-hang. I am woefully low on wall space thanks to that art fair.
