The Tate Modern comes to The Art Factory

The Bankside power station was designed by Giles Gilbert Scott for the City of London Electric Lighting Company in 1891 and along with Battersea (See Pink Floyds Animals cover) served power to London for nearly 100 years.

Since 2000 'The mother of all Loft conversions' has been used to house the Tate Modern art museum and gallery which is now officially the most popular attraction in the UK.

This is a scratch build and recreates my 'Happy Place'. I typically visit the Tate 4 or 5 times a year and I'm never happier than when sat reading a show guide and drinking a coffee beneath the silver birch trees that flank its exterior. I have missed it so much during the Pandemic I had to recreate it.

The Tate is linked to the Art Factory via the Millennium Bridge and will initially house contemporary British Artists including Bacon, Hockney, Hirst and Emin. But let us know what you would like to see, when you think British Art who comes to mind?

Awww sh*t!

New show at the Virtual Tate Modern in the Art Factory region. Come and visit and find out more about one of Britain's most loved living artists.

Merry Christmas Everyone

We're on a mission from God.

It ain’t about how hard you hit. It’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That’s how winning is done!”

You work your side of the street and I'll work mine

Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water

I've got a job, a secretary, a mother, two ex-wives and several bartenders depending upon me, and I don't intend to disappoint them all by getting myself 'slightly' killed.

There's three ways that love can grow. That's good, bad or mediocre.

You'll never come back again. It's got a death curse!

Mind if I have some of your tasty beverage to wash this down with?

You comin' down to Thunder Road?

Today Ernie Moncrieff becomes Tim Curry again to reproduce the success he had at The Art Factory a few weeks ago by carousing us with songs from The Rocky Horror Picture Show at Stark Islands!

There will also be Costumes and Props to make this is full Virtual Rocky Horror experience!

My Reviews

Synchronicity

Synchronicity /ˌsɪŋkrəˈnɪsɪti/ - the simultaneous occurrence of events which appear significantly related but have no discernible causal connection. A Genuinely astounding Art Installation, without doubt the best I have experienced in any Virtual World. If I'd walked into the Tate or MoMA and experienced a 10th of this I would have been blown-away!

Stark

Really love this Region! Lots of places to explore and discover including a beach, entertainment areas and an art gallery island. There are even houses available for residents. Mathilda is a great builder with some wonderful ideas, be sure to pick-up a copy of the Stark Magazine from the Vending machines!

Skye ArtSpace

Wonderful Art Space and amazing Particle shows by Lexx and Music by Edison. If you get chance do visit!

Glamour Isle Welcome Center

Great Grid and friendly people, I will be back :)
