Natasha Michaels – Young Woman with Dog (Proxy)

2022

Photopolymer Gravure, Printed on Arches Moulin du Gué, 38 x 28cm

Edition 20

Collection: V&A Museum

Many congratulations to Natasha Michaels as this piece is welcomed into the V&A Museum’s Permanent Print Collection. 

A delicate new portrait by Natasha Michaels. Her contribution to Folio 22 has been editioned by Photopolymer Gravure by press owner and good friend Amy-Jane Blackhall at Ink on Paper Press in Corsham.

In a contrasting dialogue between subject and painting, Natasha Michaels explores conventions in classical subjects from the history of art. Referencing Jean-Honoré Fragonard, the artist writes, ‘I wondered for whom she was being painted and who she had become through years of being looked at. She is so well known as a painting but as a person, she is invisible.’

At once subverting and celebrating, Natasha Michaels uses her own expressive language to recast and direct the sitters, reimagining them as fictional characters. The subjects often appear, to themselves as well as the viewer, uncertain of their identity and context.

Eileen Cooper RA enters the Tate Collection

Eileen Cooper RA – Woman Examining Her Shadow

1989-90

Oil on Canvas, 152.5 x 167.5 cm

Collection: TATE

We’re thrilled to celebrate this seminal work by Eileen Cooper RA OBE, as it enters the permanent artwork collection of the TATE.

‘Woman Examining Her Shadow‘ is a work featuring strong figuration and surrealist undertones. Rendered with an unapologetically female perspective, Eileen Cooper RA depicts women both boldly and tenderly with vivid colours, connoting themes of motherhood, sexuality, life and death.

Many congratulations to Eileen Cooper RA.
