What is art? | Wordsearch | Labour membership | Dark matter | Change for the worse
Re your letters on art, or the question of what is art (20 March), I am reminded of two gallery visits. In one, a friend and I were looking at an “installation” in the foyer, involving canvas and a brush and pan, to discover they were workmen’s tools awaiting some repair work. In another gallery, in a large bare room with a stepladder at one end, my husband asked when the exhibition would be put up, only to be told that this was it.

• Regarding the Wordsearch in Friday’s paper (14 March), did no one else notice “colors”? Has the Guardian been Trumped?
