Study Abroad in London

I’ve spent the last two days I’ve spent the bulk of the afternoon at the Tate modern. Sunday I was in the Dali exhibit. It was surreal. The whole exhibition was fore boding, which proably was Dali’s intention. Untill the last room, every painting/other room had a overwhelming lonley quality. After dealing with all of the serious, intense qualities of each Dali, one of his friends, a photojournalist, took quite a few candid pictures of him. These were a good diversion for a show that was intense. We met with Andrea’s sister for the show, and had a great discussion with her about it. It was quite a show. I spent two hours just wandering around the show looking at first hand the orginal paintings i had seen reproductions of for years. The detail of each one was unbelievable. Each time I got a little closer to each one there seemingly was a detail or reward for it. From further away the paintings opened up into the large picture, or message. Upon closer inspection each painting had something in the background just for those that wanted to ‘get close’ to Dali.
