Speaking of really large prints, I saw an exhibition of work by Jeff Wall 
this afternoon in Copenhagen. Most of the images were presented really 
large, typically 2x3 meters?and they really stood up to the enlargement. I 
found his work fascinating.

Even more fascinating was an exhibition of drawings by David Hockney in the 
same place (www.louisiana.dk)?simply fantastic. Think of them as photographs 
with charcoal on paper. Just awesome. 

I truly had my art horizon expanded today.

Cheers,
Nathan
