Gorky, De Stijl and Cy Twombly

We went to the Tate on Saturday; walking across the bridge from St Pauls, dodging the crowds and then entering another world - of painters from the past. Arshile Gorky first and then Van Doesburg. It's not possible to take it all in but the images stay and prompt thoughts that linger and make sense. Cy Twombly is another matter - just a floor above are his Bacchus paintings. I'm thinking about them as I sit and drink coffee, saving them for another time. More exciting today is seeing my small grandsons run endlessly up to the top of the ramp in the Turbine Hall and run full pelt back down again . Simple pleasures!
