Art Exhibitions And Fashion Events: February Edition

The days are getting 2 minutes longer everyday.  I can notice it every late afternoon and that makes me so happy and excited.  Soon we’ll be ditching the heavy coats and boots and embracing lighter clothes… Just the thought of it is inspiring.  For now I would be content visiting one of these art exhibitions and fashion events during this month of February.

Modigliani at Tate Modern until April 2nd “Modigliani’s nudes are a highlight of the exhibition – with 12 nudes on display, this is the largest group ever reunited in the UK. These sensuous works proved controversial when they were first shown in 1917, leading police to censor his only ever solo exhibition on the grounds of indecency.” TM
