Summary
Art is continuously subjected to insidious forms of censorship. This may be by the Church to guard against moral degeneration, by the State to promote a specific political agenda or by the art market, to elevate one artist above another. Now, and in the last century, artwork that touches on ethnic, religious, sexual, national or institutional sensitivities is liable to be destroyed or hidden away, ignored or side-lined. Drawing from new research into historical and contemporary case-studies, Censoring Art: Silencing the Artwork provides diverse ways of understanding the purpose and mechanisms of art censorship across distinct geopolitical and cultural contexts from Iran, Japan, and Uzbekistan to Britain, Ireland, Canada, Macedonia, Soviet Russia, and Cyprus. Its contributions uncover the impact of this silent control of the production and exhibition of art and consider how censorship has affected art practice and public perceptions of artworks.

Summary
There are many reasons why works of art become famous; few have anything to do with quality. Art museums are filled with masterworks that are unknown to the general public. This book raises questions about how fame is achieved, and ultimately how a work either retains that fame, or passes from the public consciousness.

Summary
Paul Cézanne, a contemporary of the Impressionists, to whose influence he submitted at the beginning of his career, very quickly turned towards a more personal research which made him the "father of modern painting". Most notably, he was a great influence on Braque and Picasso. Little recognised during his lifetime, derided by critics, Cézanne would nevertheless establish a new vision of nature based on the study of colours and space which he created with large, fluid strokes of the brush. These canvases allow us to appreciate Cézanne's stylistic evolution, as well as the diversity of his them.

Summary
"In the first part of the twentieth century few women in western Canada had careers as artists--Pauline Boutal had three: 23 years as a fashion illustrator for the Eaton's catalogue for the graphic design company, Brigden's of Winnipeg, 27 years as the Artistic Director at the Cercle Molière Theatre and 70 years as a visual artist. Born in Brittany in 1894, Boutal painted in a traditional style and trained at the Winnipeg School of Art, the Cape Cod School of Art, and at l'Academie de la Grande Chaumiere in Paris, France. She left an important legacy of portraits, landscapes, still lifes, and illustrations as well as theatre sets and costume designs. This English translation of Louise Duguay's award-winning "Pauline Boutal: Destin d'artiste 1894 1992" shares the story of an important artist who lived an exceptional life."--
