a friend of a friend of friend was feeling nostalgic and googy gah gahhed about home and so decided to host a dinner and exhibition set in her very spacious (by london town standards) living room. she had all the walls decked up with famous south african fotographers, lolo included (http://www.artthrob.co.za/07feb/artbio.html). lolo's wall was the one that left the mostest impression on me. wow wow wow! instant hyperbole, full blown, overexposed photolithogrpahs on cotton rag paper. this optical - colour inspired intrusion formed the highlight of my evening. and once again i was introduced and reminded of how deep & layered we can all be in sa. i love it, next time around, i want to see the real type exhibition. there was also really cool music playing in the background, softening the mood into this mellow haze. all in all a very cool evening.
one of the songs (bugge wesseltoft, existence) i heard and i made point of googling, very jazzy, very compatible with the dooby dazed haze that rounded off the night, enjoy:
*sigh...missing home is becoming tiring
