Iceberg


This is another installation in Tate Modern in London. It is always nice to step in there to see something special. I like the idea that museums are free so that if you feel the need to see van Gogh, then it takes just 10 minutes to do it. A side effect is that the National Gallery was pretty crowded.

I am amazed that museums in London still don't have any security control compared to the situation in Washington and New York, where metal detectors seem to be on entrances in every important building (fortunately not in shopping centers). Who knows, how long. I remember that two years ago I laughed at US airport rules where you had to take laptop out of bag for security check. Now this methodology is implemented in Europe too.

  • What's the best way to get from Picadilly to Tate Modern?

  • You can just walk there. From Picadilly Circus to Embankment and then walk over pedestrian bridge. Or you can take Bakerloo line from Picadilly to Waterloo so you get across the river and after that try to find Tate on the bank.
