Tate Modern here i come!

dropped by galleriiizu yesterday, had small chitchat with the man himself - Izu. apparently he won Malaysia's bid against Singapore to bring the Anatolia (Sp?) Musical to town..so wa-hey, another must-go-to event :)

Izu's also working on organizing Malaysia's first Biennale sometime this year or the next..exciting stuff! asked him for invites and he's like yeah! but he really caught me off guard when he mentioned "well if all goes well with your project, who knows, i might offer you a job here at galleriiizu"...i swear my mouth literally just dropped to the floor, it don't get much better than this! a job at an art gallery sounds right up my alley.

seeing how i don't have proper art education tho, i see this as my agenda when in London (tickets have been booked for the 10th of May - 26th of June 2006) - yeahh Audra's getting art-educated! apparently Tate Modern offers free lectures so being the Malaysian that I am, will deffo try to take full advantage of that :) i've checked out some of the summer courses, but looks like most start the week before i arrive..bah.

i'm also looking forward to this Brazillian festival of art, music, film, theatre and dance celebrating Tropicalia - the cultural revolution that re-defined Brazilian art, music and fashion in the 1960s and beyond, at the Barbican.



and finaaally, my other agenda is to finally get the damn tube system sussed! i know i know, its not my first time, but i still kinda suck at figuring out the stations (esp when i have to jump lines). so yeah, i'll arm myself with one of those Lonely Planet guidebooks and wander around aimlessly :( must see Soho this time around! also wanted to take up Pole-dancing lessons, but i'm pretty sure maman will not hear of it *sob*
