BOOK RELEASES:
A FEMALE GAZE: CAROLINE WALKER PAINTINGS AND DRAWINGS WITH THE WORK OF LAURA KNIGHT
A Female Gaze explores the paintings and drawings of contemporary artist Caroline Walker through the lens of Laura Knight, arguably Nottingham's most famous artist and the first woman to be elected a Royal Academian.
Separated by 100 years, both artists are united through their observations of women in everyday life, from moments of motherhood to women at work and the mundanity of domestic life.
With essays by Jennifer Higgie and Tristram Aver, this book contributes to rebalancing the gender bias legacy within art history, while celebrating the powerful artistic qualities of two extraordinary painters.
This book was published to accompany a major Nottingham Castle Trust exhibition, 'Laura Knight and Caroline Walker: A Female Gaze'.
Published by Beam Editions, Nottingham.

Sixty contemporary painters born or living in Britain discussed through national and international solo exhibitions of their work.
Following the success of ‘The Anomie Review of Contemporary British Painting’ in 2018, a second volume has been created to showcase solo exhibitions that have defined contemporary painting in Britain since the first volume. This new, larger anthology presents the work of sixty artists born or living here through documentation and discussion of solo exhibitions of their work in museums and galleries around the UK and internationally. Featuring artists at different stages of their careers, from senior figures exhibiting at major museums to emerging artists presenting some of their first commercial gallery exhibitions, ‘The Anomie Review of Contemporary British Painting 2’ offers an overview of recent activity in the medium of painting in this country.
