Dulwich Park Yum


We took a little stroll through Dulwich park last Sunday. T'were lovely it was. We played frisbee for the first time, checked out the nifty craft market next to the cafe that sold lots of nice mumsy stuff.... I bought a Bee Whistle and took a shine to this robot material....

Then we hit The Dulwich Park Picture Gallery, which was brilliant. You've got to check out the Saul Steinburg exhibition (thanks for the Recommendation Rosie!). it's 9 jib to get in, but well worth it. Fantastic Style, and experimentation with stamps, collage and cartoonesque maps. Love a good map.

Plus there's also a free "What are you like?" exhibition on. The idea is to ask various artist what they like; their favourite colour, place and get them to repsond in their style. There's loads of great artits who've contributed; brian eno, Quentin Blake & David Shrigley.


So yeh, go check it out. At first I thought the gallery was going to be a bit stuffy, with all the classic portrait pictures hung everywhere, but the have a good balance of contemporary snazz too. Nuff good.
