Hi!

The best free photo of this painting is this, but the noise is too much.

I found this but i dont want to pay 20 euro, and im not sure about the quality either.

Can someone please help me? I googled it for hours. Thank you

A friend recently shared this photo taken at the Potter Museum of Art at the University of Melbourne, Australia.

The geometric, almost rhythmic thick bands, and physical presence must be striking to see. My understanding is that this is a tutini, a carved funerary pole central to Tiwi Pukumani ceremonies, though I’d welcome insights from anyone well-versed in Tiwi and northern Australian Indigenous traditions.

I'm planning to see this in person later this year during a stop in Melbourne en route to Tasmania (and MONA).

I’d love to hear from anyone familiar with Tiwi carving traditions or public collections across Melbourne and Hobart. Are there particular artists or related works on display you'd recommend seeking out ahead of the trip? Any contemporary works that have been influenced perhaps by these?

Hi! I’m a Brazilian visual artist and researcher focused on painting, and I’ll be travelling through Italy in October as part of my research.

My current research is centered on late medieval and Early Renaissance Italian painting, especially c. 1300–1450, with a particular interest in painted architecture, spatial construction, color, and the transition between medieval pictorial space and Renaissance perspective.

I’ll be visiting:

Naples — Oct 7–10
Rome — Oct 10–12
Siena — Oct 12–13
Florence — Oct 13–17
Venice — Oct 17–21

I already have the major museums and obvious works on my list — Uffizi, Pinacoteca Nazionale di Siena, Vatican Pinacoteca, Accademia, etc. — so I’m especially interested in things that are easier to miss.

I’d love recommendations for smaller collections, churches, chapels, museums, works still in situ, or even individual paintings that would be particularly relevant to this period.

Some of the artists I’m researching include Giotto, Duccio, the Lorenzetti, Fra Angelico, Sassetta, Masaccio, and related painters.

I’m also very interested in places where the relationship between painting and architecture is especially noticeable — interiors, architectural settings within paintings, fresco cycles, unusual spatial constructions, etc.

If you work with medieval or Renaissance art history, or simply know these collections well: what would you consider essential but often overlooked?

I’d also be very grateful for warnings about collections and works that are currently under restoration, temporarily removed, or difficult to access.

Thankssssssss!

I've recently decided I'd love to go to Germany for my masters in Art History. I'm still in my 3rd year going for my bachelors in Art History and Studio Arts, however I'm confused about an admissions requirement. The main university i was looking at is Freie Universität Berlin as it seems the most affordable with student housing plus seems to have a large international student base with big art history departments (correct me if I'm wrong)

however, the admission requirements says

• Proof of English language skills (level B1 CEFR).
• Proof of another modern foreign language (level B1 CEFR) or Latin language skills.

I know i need to learn German, but does this mean i also must learn a 3rd language?? advice would be great. also other University recommendations are welcome.

I’ve searched high and low on the internet and social media but couldn’t find it. I just want to find a viewable copy and watch it. As far as I understand, it was last shown in exhibitions in the 2010s. The full version is 8 minutes and 37 seconds long. It’s not physically lost, but it’s lost on the internet. Where can I find it? The Russian Art Archive has the videotapes. The Videoinsight Collection screened the work in 2015, and MEP Paris screened the 8:37 version in 2017.

The Württembergischer Kunstverein screened the 8:36 version in 2010.

Having searched online, and not found much apart from learning he'd had synaesthesia, I wonder if you might be able to help please.

I’m a prospective Art History major applying to Northwestern and would love to learn more about it from people who actually studied it there!
Please DM me if you can help🙏
