Yesterday we went to the private view of a major new exhibition from Bill Viola, LOVE/DEATH: The Tristan Project, at Haunch of Venison in London.

I’ve been always a big fan of Viola’s work, and once again, yesterday “I felt in Love” with two of the works exhibited in St. Olave’s College venue, Lover’s Path (2005) and The Fall into Paradise (2005).

The exhibition is showing at Haunch of Venison, London and the former St. Olave’s College, Tooley Street, by Tower Bridge Road, London, SE1 2JR.

From the press release:

Tristan und Isolde is the story of a love so intense and profound that it cannot be contained in the material bodies of the lovers. In order to fully realise their love, Tristan and Isolde must ultimately transcend life itself
