Gauguin Exhibition

Tate Modern claims that Gauguin is "the must-see exhibition of 2010". The Sunday Times goes even further and calls it "the event of the year". Yeah, well, The Sunday Times does tend to go OTT on anything it thinks is fashionable. This nubile Tahitian chick may have an eminently pattable bum, but that doesn't make Gauguin's Manao Tupapau (The Spirit of the Dead Keeps Watch) from 1892 a great work of art. It's merely boring old French Post-Impressionism. £13.50 to see this! Silver surfers £10. If you feel you really must, the exhibition runs from 30 September to 16 January 2011.
