Special Gallery Price £15.00 - RRP: £20.00Accompanies the exhibition at the Holburne Museum, Bath, 7 October 2022 – 8 January 2023 and the National Gallery, London, 2 March–11 June 2023. For over five decades, artist Nalini Malani (b. 1946) has focused on giving a voice to the stories of those marginalised by history – particularly women. She has pioneered a unique form of socially engaged video art, combining image and sound in hand-drawn animations inspired by myth, history and contemporary politics. As the inaugural recipient of the National Gallery Contemporary Fellowship with Art Fund, Malani has created a new ‘animation chamber’ inspired by the histories and collections of the National Gallery, London, and the Holburne Museum, Bath. Revealing new underlying stories in some of the most iconic paintings of the Western European tradition, Malani offers a contemporary and critical dialogue between past and present. The artist’s own reflections on the commission are joined by essays which provide insight into her rich and multifaceted practice. AuthorsWill Cooper is Curator of Modern & Contemporary Projects at the Holburne Museum, Bath.Priyesh Mistry is Associate Curator of Modern & Contemporary Projects at the National Gallery, London. With contributions by Mieke Bal, Daniel F. Herrmann and Zehra Jumabhoy

The philosophy of modern conservation is different from that of previous eras: the emphasis now is on long-term stabilization by methods that alter the structure of a painting as little as possible.Nevertheless, if paintings are obscured by discolored varnishes and old repaints, they are cleaned, and this has often led to anxiety and debate as long-admired images are transformed.A Closer Look: Conservation of Paintings discusses the material nature of paintings and the ways that they have changed, both naturally and at the hands of previous restorers.It also describes the main types of conservation treatment carried out on panel and canvas paintings and some of the complex issues involved in cleaning and restoration.Published by National Gallery Company/Distributed by Yale University Press

Princeton University Press Chinese Painting And Its Audiences
53.36 GBP
What is Chinese painting? When did it begin? And what are the different associations of this term in China and the West?In Chinese Painting and Its Audiences, which is based on the A.W. Mellon Lectures in the Fine Arts given at the National Gallery of Art, leading art historian Craig Clunas draws from a wealth of artistic masterpieces and lesser-known pictures, some of them discussed here in English for the first time, to show how Chinese painting has been understood by a range of audiences over five centuries, from the Ming Dynasty to today.Richly illustrated, Chinese Painting and Its Audiences demonstrates that viewers in China and beyond have irrevocably shaped this great artistic tradition. Arguing that audiences within China were crucially important to the evolution of Chinese painting, Clunas considers how Chinese artists have imagined the reception of their own work.By examining paintings that depict people looking at paintings, he introduces readers to ideal types of viewers: the scholar, the gentleman, the merchant, the nation, and the people. In discussing the changing audiences for Chinese art, Clunas emphasizes that the diversity and quantity of images in Chinese culture make it impossible to generalize definitively about what constitutes Chinese painting. Exploring the complex relationships between works of art and those who look at them, Chinese Painting and Its Audiences sheds new light on how the concept of Chinese painting has been formed and reformed over hundreds of years.
