  • Look Again: Death
    Death haunts art. It lurks in the shadows of Edward Collier's Still Life as a reminder of our fragile mortality. It conquers all in Francis Bacon's Triptych and Anna Lea Merritt's Love Locked Out. But how has death emerged as such a persistent theme in art history? From intimate responses to allegorical meditations on the fleeting transience of life, Sean...

Now Wilson has returned with an...
