Jonathan Wolstenholme Wall Calendar 2026 (Art Calendar)

This innovative collection uses visual sources to explore the role of Asia in Cold War global diplomacy. Scholars across disciplines demonstrate how leaders in the region exploited the symbolic value of diplomacy to emphasise their agency in relationships with Great Powers, shedding new light on how culture shapes international relations.

A Visual History of Global Diplomacy

Cold War Asia

"Lavishly illustrated and filled with rich new insights that are the product of decades' worth of research, Cubism and Reality challenges the commonly-held view of Cubism as either a retreat from reality into abstraction, arguing instead that Georges Braque, Pablo Picasso, and Juan Gris wanted to find ways of intensifying and expanding painting's capacity to give viewers more, not less, of their lived experience of the world. It explores how Cubist artworks ask us to reflect on visual art's relationship to everyday visual experience, tackling a fundamental issue that has preoccupied artists and critics for over a century: the survival of hand-made representational artworks in the epoch of photography, film and, in the present age, digital reproduction"--

What was Cubism? How did this strange new way of making paintings and sculptures enable artists so decisively to change the trajectory of ‘Modern Art’? In responding to these questions, distinguished art historian Christopher Green presents a bold new interpretation of the movement and three of its key protagonists.
 
Stemming from a critical re-evaluation of the author’s own first responses to Cubist artworks, as a student of the late artist and critic John Golding, Cubism and Reality challenges the commonly-held view of Cubism as either a retreat from reality into abstraction, or an invitation to convert the real into the ‘surreal’, arguing instead that Georges Braque, Pablo Picasso, and Juan Gris wanted, above all, to find ways of intensifying and expanding painting’s capacity to give viewers more, not less, of their lived experience of the world.

Lavishly illustrated and filled with rich new insights and approaches to the artwork that are the product of decades’ worth of research, Green argues that, for the three artists, ‘reality’ was not objectively always there, but was created by their own perceptions, and could be transformed by their imaginations. The artwork becomes not merely a dead material fact, but somewhere into which wishes, lived experiences and memories can enter – ours, over a century later, as well as theirs. Green explores how Cubist artworks ask us to reflect in far-reaching ways on visual art’s relationship to everyday visual experience and questions how it is that we still believe that drawings, paintings and sculptures can represent the world as we see and know it. In doing so Cubism and Reality tackles a fundamental issue that has preoccupied artists, critics and art enthusiasts for over a century, well into our present age: the survival of hand-made representational artworks in the epoch of photography, film and, latterly, digital reproduction.

Cubism and Reality

Transnational Surrealism

From Betty Boop to Donald Duck, Tex Avery to Walt Disney, collage animation to Japanese anime, and Claymation to 3D animation, Surrealism and Animation is the first book to identify correspondences between the art of animation and the International Surrealist Movement. Sharing a deep commitment to a reanimation of everyday life, surrealist artists and animators sought a marvellous, living form of art. Cartoons and trick films by pioneers such as Georges Méliès were influential for Salvador Dalí and André Breton, among others; many other surrealists and their associates such as Max Ernst, Joseph Cornell, Hans Richter, Len Lye, Roland Topor, Jan Svankmajer, and Lawrence Jordan turned to animated cinema and theories of animacy to express their surrealist visions. Surrealism and Animation is the first book devoted to surrealism's vivid engagement with the history, theory, and medium of animation on a transnational basis. Featuring seventeen essays by leading and emerging scholars, as well as interviews with contemporary artists Penny Slinger and Jacolby Satterwhite, this collection investigates a shimmering range of topics on animated surrealism, including black humour, queer subjectivities, ecofeminism, Black surrealisms, and more.

Transnational Connections, 1920-Present

Surrealism and Animation

Explores Wayne Thiebaud's career as a self-described "thief" who appropriated and reinterpreted old and new European and American artworks. Although artist Wayne Thiebaud (1920-2021) earned acclaim for his poetic renderings of the prosaic particulars of American life, he openly admitted that "it's hard for me to think of artists who weren't influential on me, because I'm such a blatant thief." Wayne Thiebaud: Art Comes from Art features the artist's virtuosic appropriations and reinterpretations of old and new European and American artworks, spanning from Andrea Mantegna to Édouard Manet, Henri Matisse to Richard Diebenkorn, offering crucial insights into his creative process. Thiebaud's exploration of art, artists, and art history--along with the practices of copying, appropriation, and reinterpretation--allowed him not only to see through the eyes of other artists but also to commune with them through their work, expanding his own vision. This career-long engagement with the concept of appropriation illustrates his perception of art history as an encyclopedic "bureau of standards"--a rich repository and resource that offers working artists community with their predecessors and communion with their artworks. Published in association with the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco Exhibition dates: Legion of Honor: March 22-August 17, 2025

Visual Culture in Early Modernity

This book argues that painter Antonello da Messina (c. 1430-1479) is a formative cross-cultural figure in the practice of art history itself.

A Life of Paul Gauguin

Wild Thing

"Art has poisoned our life", proclaimed Dutch artist and De Stijl co-founder Theo van Doesburg. Reacting to the tumultuous crises of the twentieth century, especially the horrors of the First World War, avant-garde artists and writers sought to destroy art by transforming it into the substance of everyday life. Following the evolution of these revolutionary groups, How to Be Avant-Garde charts its pioneers and radical ideas.
From Paris to New York, from Zurich to Moscow and Berlin, avant-gardists challenged the confines of the definition of art along with the confines of the canvas itself. Art historian Morgan Falconer starts with the dynamic Futurist founder Filippo Tommaso Marinetti, whose manifesto extolling speed, destruction and modernity seeded avant-gardes across Europe. In turn, Dadaists Hugo Ball and Emmy Hennings sought to replace art with political cabaret and the Surrealists tried to exchange it for tools to plumb the unconscious.
He guides us through the Russian Constructivists with their adventures in advertising and utopianism and then De Stijl with the geometric abstractions of Piet Mondrian. The Bauhaus broke more boundaries, transmuting art into architecture and design. Finally, the Situationists swapped art for politics, with many of their ideas inspiring the 1968 Paris student protests.
How to Be Avant-Garde is a journey through the interlocking networks of these richly creative lives with their visions of a better world, their sometimes sympathetic but often strange and turbulent conversations and their objects and writings that defied categorisation.

Francis Bacon Studies

The fifth volume in the acclaimed Francis Bacon Studies series, published under the aegis of The Estate of Francis Bacon.

Francis Bacon Retrieved - Lost Words / New Writing

A highly anticipated and richly illustrated anthology of essays on the work of artist Tacita Dean. This volume explores the deeply-influential work of Tacita Dean, recognized increasingly as one of the key artists of our times. Emerging initially as part of the generation of the so-called “Young British Artists” in the 1990s, Dean (b. 1965) has reinvented the manner in which artists use analogue mediums such as drawing, photography, and film, prompting major questions in her work around the issues of time, memory, history, and chance events. Dean’s films embrace long takes that achieve a near-photographic stillness; they have been dedicated to obsolescent objects or stranded buildings, failed quests, as well as extraordinary figures—usually other artists and writers—nearing the end of their lives. But Dean’s contemplative films have been rigorously reinvented as a form over the course of her career, and linked to a widening series of projects involving writing, chalk drawings, found photographs, dance, and theater. This anthology explores the artist’s expansive practice, gathering essays and interviews by authors from an array of disciplines including art criticism, philosophy, literature, and film. Spanning 25 years of the artist’s career, the volume includes writings by George Baker, Douglas Crimp, Brian Dillon, Briony Fer, Hal Foster, Mark Godfrey, Louise Hornby, Rosalind Krauss, Elisabeth Lebovici, Jean-Luc Nancy, Tamara Trodd, Marina Warner, Peter Wollen, and the artist herself.

A Bigger Message

A beautiful and inspirational celebration of creativity by the dynamic and popular artist Mark Hearld. This beautiful book throws open the doors to the wonderfully vibrant and energetic world of Mark Hearld. He is a highly versatile artist, using a wide range of media and design projects to explore his love of nature, his interest in English popular art and his belief in the importance of living life visually. Hearld's exuberance, the endless inspiration he finds in the natural world, and his unbridled passion for making are evident on every page. Featuring his distinctive collages, textile designs, linocut prints, wallpapers and sculptures (to name just a few), Raucous Invention is a celebration of - and insight into - Hearld's recent work and extraordinary creativity. As Alan Powers explains in his introduction, 'this art is imperfect in the best way, messy and not prone to explaining itself, but the sound of singing and laughter is in the air.'
