10 Old british boring men painters. Oddly Euan Uglow and William Coldstream come off well. Despite all the measuring mumbo jumbo uglow pulls off a great little still life, tiny and morandi like focused, and a pretty in pink nude of high colour. Coldstream's paintings have an odd anachronistic feel appealing to the disillusioned postpostmodernist. Hockney's roughness of surface is always surprising, the naked bum picture looks like its been rolled up in a cellar, he's too much a graphic designer, there is a bad freud in a box too. Actually opening sentence notwithstanding it's quite an entertaining show, as time goes by you forget the reactionary crap they represent and enjoy the paintings.
