Sunday Times Barrett article, February 27th 2011The forthcoming Syd Barrett: Art and Letters exhibition to be held in London between March 18th and April 10th is starting to attract mainstream press attention, and two UK newspapers have given it coverage today.

First, the Sunday Times has a nice, three-page feature in its magazine, which focuses on Rosemary Breen's views on her brother, and his art. You can read the article here. There's also an audio interview with Russell Beecher, author of the new book "Barrett", that can be heard over at www.TheSundayTimes.co.uk/barrett.

The Independent on Sunday also covers the exhibition, and speaks to Libby (Gausden) Chisman about the love letters, and her relationship with the young Barrett. You can read the interview here...
