In the run-up to 2013, The Cultural Exposé team share their favourite highlights of 2012 and something they’re looking forward to in the New Year:
Highlight of 2012: William Klein & Daido Moriyama at Tate Modern, October 2012
“I enjoyed the exhibition for the wealth of work on display and the pleasant surprises. Moriyama’s harsh, sober portraits of Tokyo provided a perfect contrast to Klein’s energetic vision of New York. As someone who’s interested in the use of text in art, Klein’s wooden panel paintings of abstract letters were a bonus. I knew he’d started out as a painter but my knowledge of Klein was through his work as a photographer and filmmaker. I like him even more now.”
Something I’m looking forward to in 2013: Juergen Teller’s Woo at the ICA, January 23rd- March 17th 2013
“A bit of fashion escapism to banish the winter blues from the influential artist and photographer.”
