Making Space For Art: working as an art store manager
What happens to paintings when they're not on display? Where do we keep them? And who decides where they go? In Making Space For Art, Holly Prentice tells us about her role as art store manager.
Working With Art is a new series from the National Galleries of Scotland, where we delve into the different roles across our galleries. We ask what do people do in an art gallery? What's happening behind the scenes? And what's it really like to work with art?
Produced by the National Galleries of Scotland, with music by Alex Johnston and sound mixed by Jenny Ek. Special thanks to all staff who participated in production.

In this video, we explore the ways that artists have depicted warfare and conflicts throughout history - and as warfare and conflicts change and evolve, how too has the art created alongside it? Alongside war pho...

How Artists Respond to Class
Просмотров 1,6 тыс.3 месяца назад
There’s this series of engravings by William Hogarth, depicting a young man who comes into an inherited fortune - think Pip from Great Expectations - innocently gazing around the townhouse of his tight-fisted father. Hogarth's work so often comments on the trappings of class and he was only one of many artists throughout history that used art to criticise and even break down barriers in society...

    There’s more to The Story, and Misinformation and Disinformation have been covering it up, since even BEFORE The Time of Jesus. King Oberon closed off The Faery Kingdom from The Human Realm because The Humans were using HOARDABLE Money, which feeds The Beast; USURY. The little black character has nothing to do with the problem. Faery Money DECAYS , like everything else Natural it is not HOARDABLE. It allows for continuous uninterrupted REFINEMENT of everything. I would love to collaborate with you, I’m sure we could reveal lots of interesting facts which need to be brought to Light. 💜 Angel NicGillicuddy

And possibly another irony is that I’m an Oginski ( through my Maternal side) and they were hetmen for the Kings of Poland & the Polish Lithuanian Confederation. The Family were made Dynastic Princes by the Holy Roman Emperor in the mid to late 1400’s. It can be a funny Old World,

    I've heard that some gay men and lesbians in the United States are going back to the world of secret codes and private parties because the official LGBTQXYZ establishment is run by straight people and homophobes. Lesbians don't want to go to a bar where a straight bloke in a dress will harass them and call them a TERF when they decline his advances.

    Why is Cahun referred to as “they” when apparently she consistently referred to herself in her writings as “she”? She’s not around to take on the recently adopted alternative pronouns so I don’t think it’s correct to posthumously assign them to her, even if she did claim to be “gender fluid”.
