usually buy the catalogue or
posters to portrait at my home.”

exhibitions is too big, It is
impossible see everything
or check all the details,
catalogues and books can
help me to learn more about
the artists and their artwork
and see what I haven’t time to
see”

carry on during travels, specially

Art since early”
