Hamburger Bahnhof

1 February 2012

Whilst HND 2 Graphics are out on work placement, their Visual Communications cousins, HND New Media, are currently on a trip to Berlin to the Transmediale Festival of Art & Digital Culture.

Today they stopped off at the Hamburger Bahnhof contemporary art gallery, ostensibly to see the db exhibition by Ryoji Ikeda, but also to catch some great work by Andy Warhol, Robert Rauschenberg, and Cy Twoombly. Tutor Richard Bisset, who took these pics, records his daily photography at blipfoto, and today's entry describes their visit.
Check out the enormous scale of Warhol's Chairman Mao portrait...
