Francis Bacon at The Met




It was really great to see this show. All in all it was a pretty good overview, there was a series of businessmen in hotel rooms and bars that I had never seen before...looking creepy and furtive and queer, I loved the harsh clinical light and weird palatte of the tryptichs, the late work had its moments too, see jet of water above....also I was struck by how much he and hockney had in common..
