Tekst achterflap

Look Again is a new series of short books from Tate Publishing, opening up the conversation about British art over the last 500 years, and exploring what art has to tell us about our lives today. Written by leading voices from the worlds of literature, art and culture, each book sheds new light on some of the most well-known, best-loved and thought-provoking artworks in the national collection, and asks us to look again.

Author, photographer and broadcaster Johny Pitts examines the notion of 'visibility' in our galleries. Who gets to be seen and why? What is hidden from us and who takes decisions on what we are allowed to see how and on how we allow ourselves to be seen and represented through art.
