we first visited the tate gallery, then the white cube, the purpose of this trip was to be the main research of our essay: comparing and contrasting and museum and an art gallery. The main idea that was held in my mind throughout was that the white cube's main aim was to attract wealthy buyers, whereas the tate, which is mostly free, tries to attract tourists and art lovers. This contrast between the commercial and non commercial fascinated me and will be one of the main focusses of the essay. The two pictures i have chosen to include was an aim to describe the difference in art being shown, the top picture is at the tate, an interesting piece but not a very aesthetically pleasing item one would have say in their home, compare this to the modern white neon lights and revolving palm trees at the white cube.
