    Masters of Brazilian Modernism

    Rubem Valentim (1922–1991)

    Brasil! Brasil! The Birth of Modernism, a major new exhibition at the Royal Academy, features over 130 works from the 1910s to the 1970s by ten important Brazilian artists and will capture the diversity of Brazilian art at this time. Many of the works have never been exhibited in the UK.

    Each of the artists is represented by at least ten works, many of whom will have their own dedicated gallery space. Collectively the works will take the visitor on a journey through 70 years of a new art in Brazil which moves from figuration to abstraction.

    Artists
    Tarsila do Amaral (1886–1973)
    Anita Malfatti (1889–1964)
    Alfredo Volpi (1896–1988)
    Lasar Segall (1891–1957)
    Vicente do Rego Monteiro (1899–1970)

    Djanira (1914–1979)
    Rubem Valentim (1922–1991)
    Geraldo de Barros (1923–1998)

  • Restoration of 16th-century Derbyshire tapestries ends after 24 years at Hardwick Hall
    DUKAS_158445447_EYE
    Restoration of 16th-century Derbyshire tapestries ends after 24 years at Hardwick Hall
    After a 24-year project, the National Trust has finally finished the restoration of a set of 16th-century tapestries at Hardwick Hall in Derbyshire, the longest such endeavour in its history.

    The final tapestry in the set of 13 Gideon tapestries was unveiled on the wall of the long gallery, the culmination of a painstaking effort to clean and hand-stitch the huge pieces one at a time, at a cost of £1.7m.

    The enormous works, 6 metres tall and more than 70 metres in length, are considered to be one of the most ambitiously scaled tapestry sets of their time, and were last on display together before the project began in 1999.

    Hardwick Hall, an Elizabethan country house situated on a hilltop between Chesterfield and Mansfield, was at one point surrounded by nine coalmines.

    Staff at Hardwick Hall make final adjustments to the tapestries at Hardwick Hall in Derbyshire where the National Trust are unveiling a set of 13 16th-century tapestries. It is the National Trust's longest ever conservation project - they have spent 24 years restoring the tapestries.

    After a 24-year project, the National Trust has finally finished the restoration of a set of 16th-century tapestries at Hardwick Hall in Derbyshire, the longest such endeavour in its history.

    The final tapestry in the set of 13 Gideon tapestries was unveiled on the wall of the long gallery, the culmination of a painstaking effort to clean and hand-stitch the huge pieces one at a time, at a cost of £1.7m.

    The enormous works, 6 metres tall and more than 70 metres in length, are considered to be one of the most ambitiously scaled tapestry sets of their time, and were last on display together before the project began in 1999.

    Hardwick Hall, an Elizabethan country house situated on a hilltop between Chesterfield and Mansfield, was at one point surrounded by nine coalmines.
