Arts, arts, arts...

Yesterday, we went on excursion to London. We visited Shakespeare's Globe Theatre and the Tate Gallery of Modern Art.

I have never been to the Globe before and I have always been interested in visiting it, so it was really nice and I enjoyed it a lot! It was especially interesting to find out a bit more about Shakespeare's time. I think that nobody would have imagined that people in the audience were really killed because real weapons were in use during the performances...

Actually, the Globe is quite a new theatre from the 1980s and 1990s because the former building burt down during a performance of "Henry VIII" and was not rebuilt until about 1985...still it looks like the old one and you can dive into the old times and feel what the people felt at shortly after the Middle Age...

After our visit to the Globe we went to the Tate Gallery of Modern Art at the banks of the river Thames. I have already been there for a couple of times, but still it was nice to be there again. I especially liked the sculptures by Joseph Beuys.

There was another really fascinating installation with dishes which hang about 10 cm above the ground in the whole room...at first, you don't really see the tiny cables which hold them, so it is really interesting!
