My pick: The World As A Stage at TATE MODERN
When pegged as a Chicano artist, Ybarra demurs. “I make contemporary art that is filtered through a Mexican-American experience in Los Angeles,” he told the L.A. Times. “It’s not my goal to learn Nahuatl but to speak Cantonese.”
Sweeney Tate is a performance for The World as a Stage exhibition by the Los Angeles-based artist Mario Ybarra Jr, who works out of in the city’s New China Town Barber Shop, a community art space. Ybarra stages a recreation of the barbershop at Tate Modern, and has invited barbers from across London to participate in a hair-cutting competition.

LOUISE BOURGEOIS AT TATE MODERN
"Art is the experience, the re-experience of a trauma".
"The spiral is an attempt at controlling the chaos... It has two directions. Where do you place yourself, at the periphery or at the vortex?"
"Clothing makes me explore the past: how did I feel when I wore that. They are like signpost in the search for the past."
"It is not so much where my motivation comes from but rather how it manages to survive."
"I have been to hell and back. And let me tell you, it was wonderful."
"Art is a guarantee of sanity."
"Home for runaway girls" (Empty house sculpture)
