  1. Voted ‘Britain's ugliest building’ when it opened in 1967, the #brutalist Southbank Centre has finally been granted listed status:

    It would be good to think a certain book cover — which proudly features said slab of uncompromising #modernism — may have played a small role in its #architectural rehabilitation.

    You’re welcome, Southbank.

    Co-created, directed and designed by Danny Boyle, Carson McColl, Gareth Pugh and Paulette Randall, with Sabrina Mahfouz and Natasha Chivers, it was billed as a 'journey through 75 years of British music, dance, theatre, fashion and film'.

    This review pretty much captures it: theguardian.com/stage/2026/may

  3. An amazing night filled with the magic of music!

    Yesterday, we had the privilege of witnessing Pt. Vishwa Mohan Bhatt played his beautiful 'Raag Vishwa Ranjini' at the Southbank Centre. His performance, joined by the incredible Pt. Subhen Chatterjee, was truly something special. 🎵✨

    A big thank you to the Asian Arts agency for planning and organising this event. Your hard work brought us this unforgettable evening of music! 🙌

  4. My favourite artist, Chiharu Shiota, has an exhibition coming up at the Southbank Centre and I’ve just bought myself a ticket!

    I always thought I’d have to travel to Europe to see her work. Which I was absolutely willing to do.

    I suffer from chronic fatigue, but have booked a Friday off work, will drive to train station, then probably get a cab so that I can save my walking for around the exhibition.

    Excited!

  6. One of my daughter's favorite authors, #OliverJeffers, is coming to #LondonLiteratureFestival at #SouthbankCentre on October 22. I will pay for the ticket for the first person who would go and ask him why there are so few female characters in his amazing books. #representation

  10. Went to the Strange Clay exhibition at the Hayward Gallery at the Southbank Centre in London yesterday. Took no pictures, as I prefer to focus on what I am looking at. Definitely worth a visit. Images courtesy of Yatzer. Check the links.
