Art Quarterly is the membership magazine of Art Fund, the charity that has been helping museums and people to share in great art and culture since 1903. Art Quarterly provides readers with insightful and accessible content and comment on art and artists, what to see and do in UK museums, galleries and historic houses during each season, and how funding initiatives are amplifying the work of museums, enriching their collections and building their audiences.
Each issue combines interviews with artists, curators and collectors and in-depth features on upcoming exhibitions around the UK and related themes, alongside shorter selected exhibition previews and listings, books roundups and comment on topical issues relating to art and culture today.
Louise Giovanelli on beauty, ambiguity and the magical power of paint; scientific innovation at the Palace of Versailles; works by Wilhelmina Barns-Graham that Art Fund has helped UK museums to acquire; inside the archive at The Box, Plymouth; Maggi Hambling on finding inspiration in the song of the nightingale; and how an understanding of trauma can help museums become more welcoming for visitors
