Friday 31st July: Fancy a quick Rank?



I really don't know what to say here, you just have to go for yourself.  When the address said "The Truman Brewery" I thought it was a bit aloof and non-committal on numbering.  I now know why..............Rankin's retrospective has filled the entire venue.  It is simply MASSIVE.  The prints are HUGE and each section is HUGE.  For anyone who is of a certain age, it is a real memory trip.  So many quintessential '90s portraits that yank (dare I say Rank) you right back to days of when Dazed was an upside down - double covered publication.   
I suggest taking your roller skates to this exhibit as it will be the best and most fun way to navigate round the labyrinth ...........perhaps even take a ball of thread to leave a trail so you can find your way back out again......................left at Courtney.......right at Kate...........

(Representing the new London generation .........here is Tallulah standing with her own portrait sporting a signature Hannah Marshall dress as her muse..............when you go, see if you can spot the portrait of Hannah herself, its really beautiful)
