Thatcher ruled the roost for 11 years - and don't we all just know about it? Love her or hate her - surely this woman inspired Girl Power in some way - the mere mention of her name can still stir up some violent emotions. |

The aim of the new 'Thatcher Gallery' show at the Blue Gallery in Clerkenwell is to demonstrate and explore Baroness Thatcher's "erotic-iconic quality" through works produced by 30 artists who grew up during her time in power... Amazing that after all these years she's still capable of being a controversial subject but the plan is to indeed make some history. After all, this is the woman who inspired President Mitterand to describe her as having "the eyes of Caligula and the mouth of Marylin Monroe" so there might be some interesting interpretations of this Look in there. Helmet Hair meets Conservative Blue suit meets "Happy Birthday Mr President" or maybe an installation of Iron Handbag as Weapon? Work will include pieces from last year's Turner Prize Winner Martin Creed and Mark Wallinger whose statue of Christ was displayed on the fourth plinth in Trafalgar Square. Artist Kenny Hunter has also produced a limited edition T-shirt which might be of interest depending on his thoughts on Mrs T. 'Thatcher Gallery' from April 16-May 10 HH |
