Inspired by the dedication of Liverpool’s key workers, the artist decided to create a series of new paintings of NHS staff from Merseyside who have worked tirelessly for their community during the pandemic. In the summer of 2020, Nisenbaum contacted a few key members of Merseyside NHS staff, who agreed to sit for portraits. The staff included a professor of Outbreak Medicine, a respiratory doctor who became a father during the first wave, and a student nurse from a family of nurses who all chose to return to frontline work. Over the next few weeks, talking to them via video link from her studio in the US, Aliza Nisenbaum created a series of poignant and powerful portraits, with each sitter depicted with the things that sustained them and given them hope. This publication captures these extraordinary portraits together, and tells the stories of the sitters, revealing the impact of the pandemic on their jobs, and on their lives.","brand":"Tate Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47850680451415,"sku":"9781849767743","price":9.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781849767743.jpg?v=1710618698"},{"product_id":"bruce-nauman-9781849767187","title":"Bruce Nauman","description":"\u003ch2\u003eBook Synopsis\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cb\u003eA journey through the groundbreaking works of Bruce Nauman, one of the most restlessly inventive contemporary artists of today.\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cbr\u003e  Since the late 1960s Bruce Nauman has established a completely new understanding of contemporary art, and has been acknowledged as one of the most relevant artists of the twentieth century.

He introduced popular everyday subjects into his practice and openly acknowledged the wide-ranging influences on his work. Throughout his career, his forays into advertising, fashion, film, TV and music videos, marked a fascination with mainstream popular culture. This book will position Warhol at the vanguard of artistic experimentation. Looking at his background as an immigrant, ideas of death and religion, and his queer perspective, it will explore his limitless ambition to push the traditional boundaries of painting, sculpture, film and music, and reveal Warhol as an artist who both succeeded and failed in equal measure; an artist who embraced the establishment while cavorting with the underground. It will further highlight Warhol's knowing flirtation with the commercial world of celebrity alongside his socially engaged collaborations and advocacy of alternative lifestyles. Including his iconic depictions alongide lesser-known works, as well as an installation of his Silver Clouds, this fascinating book returns Warhol to his conceptual ambition and positions him within the shifting creative and political landscape in which he worked, permitting a broad view of how Warhol, and his work, marked a period of cultural transformation.","brand":"Tate Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47850682155351,"sku":"9781849766708","price":21.25,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781849766708.jpg?v=1710618755"},{"product_id":"rebecca-warren-all-that-heaven-allows-all-that-heaven-allows-9781849764629","title":"REBECCA WARREN:: ALL THAT HEAVEN ALLOWS: ALL THAT","description":"\u003ch2\u003eBook Synopsis\u003c\/h2\u003eA significant British artist, Warren's exuberant, roughly-worked sculptures and neon vitrines engage with the canon of art history.

Vibrantly illustrated with more than 300 works of art by both well-known figures—including Dalí, Ernst, Kahlo, Magritte, and Miró—and numerous underrepresented artists, this expansive book pushes beyond the borders of history, geography, and nationality to provocatively redraw the map of the Surrealist movement, investigating how its visual languages, ideals, theories, and practices were framed or reframed in contexts far from its Parisian origins. Contributions from more than 40 distinguished international scholars explore themes such as the channels used to transmit ideas; artists’ responses to the challenges of political oppression, social unrest, and the effects of colonialism; and experiences of displacement and exile in the twentieth century. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePublished by The Metropolitan Museum of Art\/Distributed by Yale University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExhibition Schedule:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e (October 4, 2021–January 30, 2022)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTate Modern, London\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e (February 25–August 29, 2022)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/h2\u003e“The variety of discoveries, detailed with exceptional scholarship in a ravishing keeper of a catalogue, defeat generalization.”—Peter Schjeldahl, \u003ci\u003eNew Yorker\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Metropolitan Museum of Art","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48740562829655,"sku":"9781588397270","price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781588397270.jpg?v=1720055022"},{"product_id":"the-great-george-cruikshank-and-london-s-graphic-humorists-1800-1850-9781605830957","title":"The Great George  – Cruikshank and London′s","description":"\u003ch2\u003eBook Synopsis\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cb\u003eA compact biography of one of nineteenth-century England’s most renowned illustrators.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e George Cruikshank (1792–1878) was a key transitional figure in the changing world of nineteenth-century London’s graphic humor. He carried his eighteenth-century-trained wit from the field of political satire during the Regency years into the Victorian era of journals and books.  His witty drawings of boisterous London streets in 1820–1836 made him a household name, and in 1836, his masterful etchings were key to the positive reception of Charles Dickens’s first novel.\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e Illustrated throughout by his one-of-a-kind drawings, \u003ci\u003e“The Great George”\u003c\/i\u003e traces Cruikshank’s career from his ascent, by 1820, as the preeminent political satirist to the end of his career. During the 1840s and 50s, with the rising popularity of Dickens, the arrival of \u003ci\u003ePunch, \u003c\/i\u003eand his adoption of the temperance movement as his work’s focus, Cruikshank was eventually eclipsed by new generations of artists. Using as her launchpad the argument that drawing with humor takes both great draftsmanship and a highly perceptive sense of humanity, Josephine Lea Iselin not only details the trajectory of Cruikshank’s art but also provides valuable context for his work, placing his drawings alongside pieces from his artistic predecessors and principal contemporaries.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/h2\u003eI.

Featuring nearly three hundred illustrations and nine fascinating essays by established and emerging Manet specialists, a technical analysis of the late Salon painting Jeanne (Spring), a selection of the artist's correspondence, a chronology, and more, 'Manet and Modern Beauty' brings a diverse range of approaches to bear on a little-studied area of this major artist's oeuvre.","brand":"Getty Trust Publications","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48740599103831,"sku":"9781606066041","price":52.25,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781606066041.jpg?v=1720055118"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/collections\/exhibition-catalogues-and-specific-collections.oembed?page=92","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
