Giorgio Morandi

Today the Estorick Collection of Modern Italian Art at 39a Canonbury Square, London, opened Giorgio Morandi: Lines of Poetry, which runs until 7 April (CLICK). The exhibition includes some 80 etchings and watercolours by "the master of poetic understatement". Shown is his etching Houses of Campiaro in Grizzana (1929) on loan from the Galleria d’Arte Maggiore in Bologna. This exhibition is one of the most comprehensive overviews of Morandi's graphic art ever mounted outside Italy. Admission is £5 for adults, £3.50 for silver surfers. It's free to school children and students with a valid NUS ID card.
