Underworlds


























Another mention of TfL's ability to get it right on the artwork front, as the tube map gets to interface with it's art-world tribute, where the tube map gets to feature Barbarah Kruger's Untitled (Tube Map).

I think this synthesis of reality meeting its conceptual reflection may even represent a work of art in itself. Or not. I'm sure there's someone working in a gallery somewhere with a independant income and expensive yet impractical spectacles who could tell us in multi-syllabic verbiage what it all means, but life is too short.

And let us not forget that Simon Patterson got there first with The Great Bear
