【題目】London’s Must-See Exhibitions

This year is zipping along at quite a speed, and London's already witnessed some great exhibitions. But big treats are still to come.

Van Gogh’s Sunflowers and Starry Night at Tate Britain

A major exhibition at Tate Britain, which examines how Van Gogh was inspired by British art, and how he in turn inspired British artists. His famous painting Sunflowers fills the gallery with joy, while a work of a red-haired man with piercing (銳利的) blue eyes stares out at visitors.

The EY Exhibition: Van Gogh and Britain at Tate Britain. Until 11 August, 22.

Glass Master at Kew Gardens

Dale Chihuly creates sculptures out of glass that we would normally think impossible. His bright colorful forms twist and expand as if they are living creatures. With 32 of his sculptures around Kew Gardens, we're looking forward to Kew becoming even more beautiful than it already is.

Chihuly at Kew: Reflections on Nature at Kew Gardens. 13 April-27 October, 13.75.

More of Moore at Museum of London

Henry Moore is best-known for his abstract figure sculptures, with a fantastic collection at the British Museum. What many won't know about is his obsession (癡迷) with armour (盔甲), and the sculptures he created inspired by Renaissance armour. Actually, they're going on display at Museum of London, next to the armour that inspired them.

Henry Moore: The Helmet Heads at Museum of London. Until 23 October, 11.

Shining a Light on Rembrandt at Dulwich Picture Gallery

Dulwich Picture Gallery commemorates 350 years since the death of Rembrandt with an exhibition on the man who mastered the use of light and dark in his paintings. The last Rembrandt exhibition in London was superb — more of the same, please.
