Citizens and Kings
On many occasions I've walked into a gallery, taken a quick look at a selection of 18th and 19th century portraits, and dismissed them as an irrelevency or, perhaps even worse, uninteresting. But had I taken a step closer to the exhibition, taken a closer look at the paintings, and thought about why these pieces in particular had been chosen and hung together, I would have appreciated the whole on a much greater level....

Holocaust exhibition, Imperial War Museum
The Holocaust exhibition at the Imperial War Museum is both exhaustive and exhausting. The curators have created a concise and comprehensive history of the Jewish experience in the years leading up to and including the second world war. It is extremely sensitively handled, economic and factual at all times and censorious where necessary....

Mr Happy
Ray Lamontagne and his band walked onto the Hammersmith Apollo's stage in darkness and waited for the lights to go on. When they did, we could see Ray was wearing his usual beard, jeans and shirt. But he also had on a "Mr Happy" t-shirt. Without a hello, a smile or anything else he went straight into the first song....

More Arcade, and more Fire
I saw them again at Porchester Hall three days later. This time they rocked even harder. It wasa all-standing, I'd heard the new album in the interim, and had a better idea of what to expect. They mashed the set......

Scissors, paper, arcade fire, neon bible
Wow. I saw Arcade Fire last week at St John's, Smith Square, a church as gloriously baroque as the band's music. Interestingly, the church has not been deconsecrated, so the gig was taking place on holy ground....

Just one Canaletto...
Canaletto's panoramic paintings of London are awesome. I've seen some of his stuff at the National Gallery before, and always thought that they resembled architect's technical drawings (this is a good thing). At the Dulwich Picture House's exhibition of his work in London between 1750 - 60, we get to see the preliminary sketches alongside the finished works, and this apparent scientific accuracy is on display more than ever....
