OUR WEEKLY PROCRASTINATION

Photos: The Procrastinator (some) Times. On the second one you can see one of my favorite illustrations called "Perv".

We visited Jean Jullien's exhibition La Plage, on Beach London the opening day and we found fresh fish (nice touch!), fresh ginger beer, and a really nice series of limited-edition prints that in a humorous way portrait that one thing that must of us are not going to experience in the next 8 months: beach life. More info about La Plage here.


Also, this past Wednesday we head down to the Southbank Centre to see Limbo and we absolutely loved it. The performers were absolutely awesome and personally, I really enjoyed the music. Nice old-days feeling show that you should definitely see, even it you can only buy the 'cheap' tickets. The venue is small enough to be able to have a good view of everything from pretty much everywhere, just be a bit earlier to chose your sits.  For specific details have a look at our To Do List. We have no photos because cameras were not allowed.

Finally, in our Weekly Procrastination we visited the Tate Liverpool that is presenting over a hundred works from their collection in a very interesting way. The DLA Piper Series: Constellations explores connections between major works including Barbara Kruger, Marina Abramovic, Jonas Mekas, Man Ray, Picasso, Christo and Francis Alys, across art history, arranging them in nine ‘constellations’. This exhibition on two floors of the gallery, "offer a fresh way of viewing and understanding artworks through correspondences rather than chronological narrative". If you happen to be in Liverpool I think is worth a visit. More info here.

TO DO (OR NOT TO DO) LIST

London 1-on-1-on-1. Over 8 million people live in London. People to whom we share a great number of everyday activities, from queuing (a personal favorite) to being oddly close, pretending not to be oddly close, in the Tube's rush hour. The Battersea Arts Centre, invite us to explore a warren of candle-lit rooms and encounter real-life stories told by the people who lived them. Each story, from the moving to the bizarre or comical, will be told to an audience of just two. You will share every experience 1-on-1-on-1 with the storyteller and an audience member you may never have met before. Book tickets, watch the trailer and read a little bit more about this peculiar London Stories here.

BP Saturdays: Loud Tate. The next Saturday 21st you can get down to Tate Britain for a free action-packed day of art, music and fashion, exploring the idea of contrast between the past and present, inspired by the new chronological display at Tate Britain. There will be workships, tutorials, and live performance from Clean Bandit, Amplify Dot and Hackney Colliery Band. More info in the Tate Britain website.

If you fancy to "witness heart-stopping illusions, mind-bending manoeuvres, breathtaking dance moves and thrilling live music from a coterie of highly skilled international performers. A festive celebration of otherworldly proportions, welcome to the greatest party ever between heaven and hell." LIMBO, the new production from the creative producers of 2012 hit show Cantina, will be in London Wonderground until the 29th of September. This was part of our Weekly Procrastination this week and we were fascinated. There's some serious stuff going on in Limbo. And the music is just perfect! Don't miss out. Info and tickets here.

Finally, London Design Festival started this 14th of September and it's massive this year. From exhibitions, creative installations to collaborations and dinner parties. The photo above is Endless Stair, a visually and architecturally astonishing installation and one of the highlights of this September’s Festival, go and have a look from 13 September – 10 October 2013 on the lawn in front of the Tate Modern. Design is everywhere, but specially here.
