Francis Bacon's messy studio

If you believe your workplace is in a complete mess, think again. Francis Bacon’s own studio at 7 Reece Mews in South Kensington, London, where he worked for 30 years, was in an absolute chaos! You can have a glimpse of what chaos means at the Hugh Lane Municipal Gallery in Dublin, which transplanted and reassembled every paintbrush and speck of dust, along with the walls and floorboards of the famed studio from London to Ireland. Visit this unique exhibition in Dublin that took three years to reconstruct.
