Comments
Spent a day in the National Arts Library in the V&A and walked through the Photography Centre.
I agree - lovely big space. I particularly like the fact that the book collection is on view in the Kusuma Gallery. All these books look accessible via the NAL.
BTW, I would recommend the Arts Library as a great research resource.
Thanks! Yes, a return visit or two is definitely call for,
Early days, but a little underwhelmed by the opening exhibits. Lovely big space, so can only get better! Will report back when next visit as we go to the V&A quite a lot.
