Just been to the Barbican to see 'Everything was moving'. Some fantastic stuff in there, heartbreaking and eye opening.
But, as always at the Barbican, it's just too much. I was spent after about a third of the exhibition, managed to focus for another third, but the last bit didn't get the attention it deserved.
Good thing is they'll let you back in on the same day with the same ticket - I was playing in a concert there a few weeks ago and managed to go three times in between rehearsals! Guess it'd be tricky during the week but could split it over lunch at a weekend maybe? I quite enjoyed the upstairs section, found the colour bits refreshing after all the b&w downstairs (which I thought were fantastic as well!).. some really powerful images of apartheid - segregated train platform image a really good visual representation of the inequality/injustice.
