Seen in Manchester Central Library.
An exhibition on local history and poverty.

A model of a back to back slum house where each of the 8 rooms housed a family. It has the side left open with an acrylic cover so the rooms can be seen.

One of the rooms in the slum house model.
The walls are filthy, and the floor bare. The window on the left is uncovered. There is a metal double bed on the right, a small bed on the left, a small table, and a fire place. Laundry is hanging on a line across the room in front of the fire.
The furnishings are very spartan, with just a plate, kettle, and candle stick on the table, and a cooking pot on the hearth.
The plain wooden door, on the right, is ajar.

Enjoyed the exhibition Hag today in Dunfermline. A wonderful range of women artists and an examination of societal attitudes towards female ageing.

Love this Kunsthalle Wien museum exhibition!

"Radical Software: Women, Art & Computing 1960–1991 examines the pioneering role of women in digital art. It presents works by artists who were among the first to use the computer – mainframe and minicomputers – as a tool for artmaking."

One exhibition I was highly impressed of, it was in Staatsgalerie Stuttgart about Peter Paul Rubens and also his impression on contemporary art...

Photography. A black and white photo of two cats on a motorcycle. The white cat is lying a bit sleepy on it and behind it a black cat is squatting and looking around. A white grid serves as background.
Info: Daido Moriyama (born 1938) is one of the most important Japanese photographers of the second half of the 20th century. Mass media, advertising, social taboos or the theatricality of everyday life - Moriyama's themes cast a spell over you.

I promised you photos of what the museum guide discovers when she has to escape the crowds, goes into empty rooms and looks at unusual places. Descriptions: alt text. A small thread.

An old wooden table with inscriptions of 1813 with an ancient petroleum lamp in front of a wall made of large rough-hewn natural stones. Part of our farm museum, which used to belong to the outbuildings.

The ceiling has wooden beams running through it in parallels. It is plastered in between. The plaster is blackened, so you can clearly see the loop-like movements with which it was applied and decorated. It has flaked off in one place and the substructure is exposed. Unrestored original material. Although I've been working here for years, this is the first time I've looked at the top! Nobody does, because the exhibits attract attention.

Lime-washed ceiling covered with wooden slats between the beams. Some of the wood is very weathered or cracked, which creates an interesting texture.

The blackened plaster zoomed in: You can clearly see the loops of a scraper and other tool marks. It looks like mysterious writing from the past.

#Climate activists who target artworks ‘using Suffragette tactics’, says artist Alex Margo Arden: ‘symbolic damage’ helps force public conversation about climate crisis; link image is among Arden’s own works now in an #exhibition * and references a #Monet that was daubed in red paint in Stockholm.
