Take a Trip to London: Summer Exhibition 2009 at the Royal Academy

Peachy Deegan just loves the Royal Academy, and really enjoyed seeing the Rodin exhibit a few years ago there.

Steeped in tradition, the Royal Academy this summer is showcasing the Summer Exhibition 2009 and on our recent voyage to the mother country, we checked it out and were impressed with all of the up and coming talent.

The 241st Royal Academy of Arts Summer Exhibition runs until the 16th of August and Peachy Deegan thought it was overwhelmingly colorful, creative and well-displayed, which is what we would of course expect from this high caliber institution. The works were set off nicely by the white walls, the gold ornate design and the ceilings that included glass on the roof.

Among our favorite pieces:

4 Double Take, Grand Central

VI The entire architecture room

VII The natural world sculptures

IX Photography exhibit

983 Black 2008*

1075 Alter Ego

1076 A to Zed

* This was our favorite - a bear!

Whom You Know highly recommends a visit!
