Haworth Gallery

Today I managed to find the time to visit the Haworth Gallery to view the works by Peter Blake, the man responsible for the cover of the Beatles "Sgt. Pepper" album. I was quite excited by the prospect but found his work to be a total load of c***!!!

Art is essentially a personal thing, I do not consider stained bed sheets nor piles of bricks to be artistic in any sense of the word....and what I viewed today was in my opinion, not worthy of marks in a G.C.E. exam.

The thumbnails below (in order) are:
1) His finished work on the Album cover,
2) His original sketch
3) P.C. Errors made with the original idea (in "words"see attached files below)
4) His exhibit called "Sumo"
5) His exhibit called "zebra"

He did not "paint" or "draw" these, he merely cut out (badly) pictures from books and framed them.........

What do you think??
