Art & Events Festivals Film Music
Thursday 17 April 2014 in London
By TW Editorial | Published on Friday 11 April 2014
TODAY IN LONDON, ThisWeek’s tipped events feature scissors-and-paper shapes by the great Henri Matisse, Oscar-winning actress Marion Cotillard, and a triad of tipped rock/alternative acts: PINS, Francis Lung, and Kagoule. And free pizza…
ART: Henri Matisse – The Cut Outs, Tate Modern, 17 Apr – 7 Sep (pictured)
The Tate M displays art giant Henri Matisse’s snip-and-paste series, which he began making in latter life once ill-health had prevented him from painting. This is the first time so large a number of his paper ‘gouaches découpées’, which include the famous ‘Blue Nudes’ and the large-scale ‘Snail’, have gone on show at the same time, in the same place. Details and tickets here.
FILM: The Bigger Picture, presents… Rust & Bone, East Dulwich Tavern, 17 Apr
Pop into the EDT tonight if you want to watch Marion Cotillard and Matthias Schoenaerts having one whale of a Palme d’Or-nominated love affair, which first came out in 2012 c/o award-winning filmmaker Jacques Audiard. Details and tickets here.
MUSIC: The Lock Tavern Festival, Lock Tavern, 17-20 Apr
This year’s LT Fest, a string of free-entry parties featuring DJs, live bands, and pizza-based ambiance, begins this evening at 6pm with a line-up including Mancs rock ladies PINS, melancholic pop soloist Francis Lung and noisy teen trio Kagoule, with guest turntablists Semi-Deluxe and Richie Sanks, and Big Deal, Girl Band, Seekae, DEMS and Pablo Nouvelle buoying things up over the subsequent days. Free slices of pizza will be given on arrival to those RSVP-ing pre-the event via Billetto. Details here.
