Yesterday after conducting my bi-weekly
'Cycle Revolution' Tours at the Design Museum I took the walk towards Tate Modern (walking along the Thames as much as was possible for me) and saw some sights from History recent and distant - as I got closer to my quarry and passed the Globe theatre rain started to fall.
Once in the former power station I was such taken by the top floor of exhibits which included works by Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein and a personal favourite of mine Ed Ruscha.

I was also excited to see more of
Nam June Paik and what I saw here was for me more inspiring than those I recently saw at The
Whitechapel Gallery, another revelation was seeing a work which was also combining the word and image, this by
Barbara Kruger a US artist who was asking the searching question
'Who Owns What?''.
