Tracey Emin, Paula Rego, Mat Collishaw at the Foundling
Friday, January 29th, 2010The Foundling one of London’s very best small museums is punching above its weight with its current exhibition It is well worth a visit . Guardian Online has pitched the story beautifully. The artists,Tracey in particular, talk movingly about how their work is inspired by stories of childhood, loss and abandonement.

Here is just one of several original works, this one Mat Collishaw’s lightbox, Children of a Lesser God,that have been placed with imagination throughout the museum in vivid contrast to older masters like Hogarth, an original patron of the Foundling Hospital.
