Greetings Art Educators,

I just checked in with Art Conversations (on Artcyclopedia) and saw
this exhibit of Don Flavin's work recommended.

Dan Flavin: A Retrospective:

You will need flash plug in to view.

Show is at the Hayward Gallery:

Quoting from the site:

"One of the most innovative figures in 20th-century art, Flavin used

Enjoy this presentation. Sure would be great to see it in person.
Hayward Gallery lies between the Royal National Theatre and the Royal
Festival Hall in London.
