RETROSPECTIVE DAY 2: ABSTRACT EXPRESSIONISM

Wilson, in full protective snoutmask, supervises a visitor as he admires one of Byron's paintings.
 
Speaking of protective measures, several of you have questioned the requirement to 'sterilise your eyes' between exhibits.
 
I've spoken to Wilson about this, and it's not as bad as it sounds – all you are asked to do is close your eyes for a few seconds to clear the mind between one painting and the next. 
 
It's an Aesthetic Sterilisation rather than anything to do with infection control and was apparently included on the list in error… which I am extremely relieved to hear!
 
Tomorrow: Colour Field Painting – so there's something to look forward to… or not. 
 
Visitor Supervision will be provided by Polly and Billi, so you'll be in safe (if not terribly knowledgable) hands. Tarsi.
