The newspeak - British Art Now is the second part of its survey of young British artists. 'the Saatchi Gallery’s latest exhibition, Newspeak – British Art Now opens bringing with it a whole host of emerging British art talent. The exhibition is the second part of the series of which part one finished a couple of weeks ago and claims to be a ‘museum-scale survey of emergent British contemporary art’.
All the artifacts i chose to put in my contacts sheet i found to be the most interesting. I thought these particular artifacts worked very well in the British Art Now exhibition. My favorite pictures on the contacts sheet is a piece of art made by Tessa Farmer called 'Swarm'. Also the other pieces of artwork i found interesting were three pieces painted by and artist called Jonathan Wateridge called 'Group series no. 2 space program', ' Group series no. 1 Sandinista' and 'Jungle scene with plane wreck'.
