Il libro ricostruisce per la prima volta la nascita e gli sviluppi di uno dei più interessanti fenomeni del sistema culturale moderno: le mostre d'arte dedicate ai grandi maestri. E ne svela, attraverso una raccolta di fatti, episodi e retroscena, le logiche e i meccanismi, validi anche per il presente. Francis Haskell guida il lettore attraverso le esposizioni che hanno fatto epoca: per quanto di durata limitata nel tempo esse hanno arricchito il gusto del pubblico e plasmato la nostra idea di storia dell'arte.

Tess Jaray
Royal Academy of Arts

In these subtle and penetrating essays the artist Tess Jaray considers the work of painters past and present whom she admires, from Giotto and Piero to such contemporaries as Basil Beattie and younger artists like Martin Creed. She also reflects on the questions and preferences that motivate her own practice how we apprehend beauty, the qualities of particular colours and returns often to the idea that artists are looking for patterns to make sense of the world. Jaray shares this modernist sensibility with the writer W. G. Sebald, who features in several pieces in this collection and whose presence is felt throughout. Like Sebald, in these essays Jaray approaches the mysteries of making art where it comes from and what happens when we look at it, in our heads and in our hearts. AUTHOR: Tess Jaray RA (born 31 December 1937) is a British painter and printmaker. She taught at The Slade School of Fine Art, UCL from 1968 until 1999. She was made an Honorary Fellow of RIBA (Royal Institute for British Architects) in 1995 and a Royal Academician in 2010. SELLING POINTS: * About artists, written by an artist * This compilation of essays by Tess Jaray RA celebrates the painters past and present who have inspired her work * An in-depth and personal insight into the artistic philosophy of a renowned contemporary painter
