Gavin Turk

Newport St Gallery

Gavin Turk’s 30 year retrospective opened at Damien Hurst’s Newport St Gallery last week. Turk is considered one of Britain’s most influential contemporary artists and the retrospective includes his infamous work ‘Cave’, which was displayed at his Royal College of Art degree show (and for which he got a fail!). The Newport St Gallery won the Royal Institute of British Archietcts 2016 London award, so the building alone is well worth a visit. Free.

Beyond Caravaggio

National Gallery
Caravaggio is undoubtebly one of the most famous Italian artists, ever. You know you’ve made it when they name a style after you (Caravaggism). This exhibition is about how Caravaggio’s art influenced many other famous artists from the 17th century onwards. The exhibition uses a select group of Caravaggio’s works to demonstrate the influence he had on other artists. If you aren’t Caravaggio’d out you can visit the National Gallery’s permanent collection too. £14, £12 Concession.

By Jove!

By Jove, 

I have not updated you for sometimes... OK. I have been rather busy with charities, filming, modeling and the like and now that I looked at my website and changed a few things, please let me know what you think? www.jeanfrancoisdor.com .

I finished my run for the Charity, Positive East on Sunday in 33:38 which is not bad for someone like me.

So far including gift aid, I raised £945.30 and I raised a further £1690 on last Wednesday's dinner so £2,635.30. Thank you everyone who contributed!

I shall carry on remodelling my websites now:
www.jfdor.co.uk
www.gpn.one
www.jeanfrancoisdor.pictures

let me know what you think of them?

All best wishes, 

Jean-François.

New Tate Gallery

What a treat to be invited to the Press view of the New Tate Modern this morning. I thoroughly enjoyed it and have to thank Beatrice Colbrant for reminding me about this.

The architecture is vast and somehow reminiscent of the SouthBank Centre. But the space is a plenty and light pour through all floors. Amazing views from the top. I have put a few pictures on Facebook and no doubt you will find better one on the Tate's website. www.Tate.org.uk. It opens to the public on Friday and please make a point of going to visit it. you will enjoy it.































This last picture was a performance that made me think of the dancers by Matisse.

May 2016

"En mai fait ce qu'il te plait". In May do what you please so is the saying in French. The light is coming into our houses and we can spend more time outside tending the garden or simply enjoying the outdoors sports and activities.

Summer parties abound: Chelsea Flower Show, Royal Ascot, Henley Royal Regatta, Wimbledon, Grand Prix de Monaco and I forget many.

Please let me know how we can help you at Jean-François Dor Events.

I very much look forward to hearing from you.

All best wishes,

Jean-François.
