Kitaj Prints A Catalogue Raisonné Jennifer Ramkalawon n American-born

artist R.B. Kitaj (1932–2007) was one of the most controversial artists of the second half of the twentieth century. His distinctive, highly personal and often challenging works drew on many influences ranging from literature to politics and film. The British Museum holds a near complete set of the artist’s proofs, the best representation of the artist’s graphic works in the UK

n Kitaj

worked in England for almost forty years. It was in London that he had developed his early style and influenced many of his friends, including David Hockney, Lucian Freud and Frank Auerbach. This led Kitaj to coin the term ‘School of London’, later associated with this group of purely figurative artists

n This

is the first publication to examine in detail Kitaj’s prints for almost twenty years, featuring specially commissioned new photography of pieces spanning his entire career – from his early prints of fragmented images and collages to his later figurative works

n Published

to complement a major exhibition at the British Museum from 30 May to 1 September 2013

Jennifer Ramkalawon is a curator of prints and drawings at the British Museum, where she has organized many print displays. She is a specialist in late nineteenth- and twentieth-century art and culture, and is the author of Toulouse-Lautrec and Love and Marriage.

Propaganda Asian art of war and revolution Mary Ginsberg n In

revolutionary and wartime societies, propaganda is considered a vital part of education and political participation. Propaganda encourages or condemns; reinforces existing attitudes and behaviour; promotes social membership within nation, class or work unit. Where political transformation had occurred before widespread modernization and literacy, art was the most effective way to communicate powerful messages

n Drawing

on the British Museum’s wide-ranging collections, this intriguing and thought-provoking illustrated catalogue provides a fascinating contextual survey of political art across Asia from 1900 to 1976, ending with the Cultural Revolution and Mao’s death and the end of the Vietnam War

n Over

100 works of art from China, Japan, Vietnam, Korea, India and other countries are represented, ranging from posters to prints, cartoons to calligraphy, textiles to badges, to coins and medals, some published for the first time. Through these powerful images, the author explores the themes of propaganda in daily life, heroes and villains, the use of the past, symbolism, dissent and revolutionary inspirations

n Published

to complement an exhibition at the British Museum, opening May 2013

Mary Ginsberg is a guest curator at the British Museum, specialising in Chinese art.

A Little Gay History Desire and Diversity across the World Richard Parkinson n How

old is the oldest chat-up line between men? Who was the first ‘lesbian’? Were ancient Greek men who had sex together necessarily ‘gay’? And what did Shakespeare think about cross-dressing? Little Gay History takes objects ranging from Ancient Egyptian papyri and the erotic scenes on the Roman Warren Cup to images by modern artists including David Hockney and Bhupen Khakhar to consider questions such as these

n A

n Explores

the intimate issues behind forty artefacts from ancient times to the present, and from cultures across the world, to ask a question that concerns us all: how easily can we recognize love in history?

Richard Parkinson is internationally known as a specialist in Ancient Egyptian texts and a curator of ancient Egyptian culture at the British Museum. His books for the British Museum Press include Voices from Ancient Egypt, The Tomb-Chapel of Nebamun, and (for children) Pocket Guide to Ancient Egyptian Hieroglyphs.

Masks The Art of Expression Edited by John Mack n Beautiful,

elaborate, fierce, grotesque or elegant, masks are extraordinary objects that demonstrate the creative skills and aesthetics of many different periods and cultures

n Masks

are a nearly universal phenomenon, but their uses and meanings are strikingly different across cultures. In ritual and religious use, as today in Africa or Oceania, mask-wearers may be thought to be possessed by – or even become – a spirit or a god. In ancient Egypt, funerary masks were intended to equip the dead with divine powers and attributes, while the masks used in Japanese Noh plays or in ancient Greek drama helped to portray character

n In

this new edition of a classic book, eight leading experts explore the fascinating stories, meanings and power of masks across ancient and modern civilizations

n Richly

illustrated with objects from the outstanding collection of the British Museum and other important collections

John Mack is Professor of World Art Studies at the University of East Anglia and was formerly Senior Keeper at the British Museum, where he remains an advisor for the Museum’s Africa Programme. He is an internationally-recognized authority on the arts and cultures of Africa and has published extensively on many subjects, taking a broadly anthropological approach to art, material, culture and archaeology. His recent publications include Preserving the Cultural Heritage of Africa: Crisis or Renaissance? (James Currey Publications, 2008) and The Art of Small Things (The British Museum Press, 2007).

The British Museum in Spring 2013 Life and death in Pompeii and Herculaneum 28 March – 29 September 2013, Reading Room AD 79. In just 24 hours, two cities in the Bay of Naples, southern Italy, were buried by a catastrophic eruption of Mount Vesuvius. Preserved under ash, their rediscovery nearly 1,700 years later provided an unparalleled glimpse into the daily life of the Roman Empire.

Life and death in Pompeii and Herculaneum Paul Roberts

See page 3

Starting with the bustling street, and moving through the intimate spaces of a home, you will be transported into the lives of ordinary Romans nearly 2,000 years ago, before devastation struck. From the atrium to the garden, bedroom and dining room, this personal journey will reveal parallels with our own lives today. With over 20 years since the last major exhibition on Pompeii in the UK, recent discoveries alongside celebrated objects, including body casts, will reveal new insights into this highly captivating and human story. Tickets on sale from September 2012

Ice Age art arrival of the modern mind 7 February – 26 May 2013, Room 35

Ice Age art arrival of the modern mind Jill Cook

See page 7

This major exhibition asks if we can be human without art. Picasso, Moore, Hepworth, Gormley – all have been inspired by some of the earliest artists. Journey back over 40,000 years and discover rare miniature masterpieces created by people with minds as intelligent, imaginative and curious as our own. Drawing together unique discoveries from across Europe for the first time (and possibly the last as they are too fragile to travel again), this groundbreaking exhibition will lift the time barrier to show how we are connected to these artists from the last Ice Age – artistically, creatively and spiritually. It features the world’s oldest examples of sculpture, portrait and ceramic art alongside modern works influenced by the period. Don’t miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to discover real contemporary art, just 40,000 years old. Tickets on sale from November 2012

There will be many free exhibitions and displays at the Museum in 2013, covering everything from 19th-century drawings of classical Greece to African textiles. To keep up to date, visit britishmuseum.org | 28 |
