Lucian who?!

Me: I can't wait to go to the Lucian Freud exhibition!
My Boss: Who is Lucian Freud?


OMG


Anyway for those that are a fan like me, I can't wait to get my tush over to the National Portrait Gallery. It is my favorite gallery in central london and I love the paintings just as much as the photographs. 


My all time favorite Lucian Freud painting is the 1995 "Benefits Supervisor Sleeping". It set the world record price for a living artist in 2008 at a whopping $33.6 million in New York. A little out of my price range! 

I love nude artwork be it a painting or photograph but Freud's subjects are always so different and real! The exhibition is of 130 works from museums and private collections throughout the world, some of which have never been seen before so defiantly worth a look! 

I'm booking my ticket now! :)
