Post image for Tate Modern: Guess the Artist, Part 2

This round of Guess the Artist featuring works of art from the Tate Modern in London has certainly proved to be the most challenging – just as I had hoped. I was encouraged by all of the comments on the MoMA edition to push it to the next level. I’m happy to have challenged you and, who knows, perhaps you’ll have discovered a few new artists in the process.

I should add that each of these artists are internationally acclaimed Modern and Contemporary masters. If some of the artists below are new to you, than I’m happy to have shared a snapshot of their work.

If you have yet to guess yourself, you can submit them by clicking over to Tate Modern: Guess the Artist, Part 1 before scrolling below. I would hate to spoil your fun!

Since I began my Guess the Artist series over a year ago, I’ve been anxious to add the Tate Modern to the mix. I introduced the challenge with the Pompidou, sharing mere inches of large paintings by some of the world’s greatest modern masters. Nearly everyone who participated was able to accurately name the artist. [...]

Everyone expects a foreigner to feel out of place in a foreign country. Yet it may come as a surprise that the more at home I feel in France, the more foreign I feel towards the US. And while I may always be “The American” to my French friends, the real challenge of living abroad [...]

Hello? Readers? Are you still there? I know, I’ve been terrible at posting! Recently I was going through my digital photos and found shots of my Galette de Roi, the traditional French cake with a hidden token or toy inside crowning the person who finds it King for the day (assuming they didn’t choke on [...]

Recently I boldly stated on Instagram that Patrick Roger is my favorite chocolaterier in Paris. Perhaps I should have been a bit more precise in saying he is one of many chocolate masters in Paris whose creations leave me with little more to be desired. And while Paris has no shortage of some of the [...]

It was something I never thought I’d see outside of vintage photos, Paris dressed in white. During my first winter we were graced with a moment of flurries and though it lasted only an instant and didn’t transform the city into a blank canvas, it still brought with it all the excitement of a kid’s [...]
