Whirlwind! That pretty much describes my very packed five days this past week in London. I tallied something like 2-3 museum/galleries per day, saw hundreds of works of art, and got to glimpse the dizzying world of the art market while delivering a conference paper related to the topic—my Fitbit steps averaged well over 20,000 each day. As crazy as it was, I highly recommend visiting an art city in this way. It is both exhilarating and energizing to take in so much visual culture in such a short span while simultaneously attending an academic event. Once again I am reminded of why I love to do what I do, and having a great friend and local (thanks again Lara!) to accompany me on many of my visits was a special bonus. Home late Sunday after a tiring flight, I was very happy to catch up on rest and reconnection on Family Day (a holiday here in B.C.). I was also able to sort through some of the best of my media picks for the week—enjoy!
