How are contemporary artists inspired by art of the past? | National Gallery

Contemporary artists challenge and provide fresh perspectives on our paintings and the National Gallery itself. Here we explore how contemporary artists have responded to our collection since the 1980s.
The discussion delves into the programme's history and its significant impact on the participating artists. It's hosted by Colin Wiggins, the Gallery’s former Head of Education and Special Projects Curator, and Priyesh Mistry, Associate Curator of Contemporary and Modern Projects.
Watch for a comprehensive account of the National Gallery's contemporary developments, offering first-hand insights into the growth and expansion of the Artist-in-Residence programme. We hear about the struggles faced by artists such as Paula Rego, Michael Landy, Nalini Malani and Rosalind Nashashibi, as well as their eventual successes, revealing the transformative nature of this initiative.

A great insight into how The National Gallery thinks and operates and how even after 200 long years it is constantly evolving, adapting and changing with the time.❤❤
