Art Everywhere: Richard Dadd on the tube

Last week, a hot and sweaty tube journey to the South Kensington museums was much improved by an unexpected sighting of Richard Dadd halfway up the escalators! Dadd's The Fairy Feller's Master Stroke (painted by the artist while at Bethlem) is held in the collection at the Tate Britain, and is one of 57 masterpieces decorating billboards and bus stops around the UK. Described as a 'Very Very Big Art Show', Art Everywhere has seen 22,000 poster sites transformed into a country-wide exhibition for two weeks over the summer.

Have your journeys to work been improved by the art on display in unexpected locatio ns? What artworks have you particularly enjoyed seeing? And which would you like to see? Art Everywhere runs until 25 August, so if you haven't spotted any artworks yet keep your eyes peeled! There's also a map of poster sites on the Art Everywhere website. We're certainly hoping at least some of the billboard owners will be slow to take the images down!
