Life In A Kentish Town


So we were lucky enough to be invited to the opening of Turner Contemporary in Margate, and because of its status as a Kentish town – and also to counteract the evil Brian Sewell’s bilge here – we have decided to post some lovely photos in an attempt to woo you Kentishtowners to the glorious Thanet coast this weekend.

All we have to say is that on a blue-sky April evening – aided by copious flutes of Kentish champagne – we were dazzled by not only the building and some of the art inside (especially Ellen Harvey’s etched lightbox work), but the energy of all those involved in the project.

And best of all? The sunset which can be viewed through Daniel Buren’s yellow and black striped windows.
