Spot the difference: Bridget Riley work enjoys new green cleaning treatment

Tate Britain has completed the first-ever cleaning of Bridget Riley’s landmark 1964 Op art painting, 'Hesitate,' using a pioneering 'green' conservation method.

This breakthrough allows conservators to safely clean the sensitive, unvarnished polyvinyl acetate house paints Riley favored, which were previously deemed too fragile for standard restoration techniques.

Remembering Gathie Falk, Canadian artist whose singular practice sparked comparisons to Surrealism and Pop art

Gathie Falk, the acclaimed Canadian artist known for her six-decade practice spanning Surrealist paintings, hand-fashioned ceramics, sculptural installations, and performance, died at her home in Vancouver on 22 December at age 97. Her work transformed everyday objects—glazed ceramic apples, cabbages, shoes, and watermelons—into jewel-like sculptures and installations, with notable series including "Picnics" (1976-77), "Cement With Poppies" (1982), and "55 Oranges" (1969-70). Born in rural Manitoba in 1928 to Mennonite refugees, Falk initially pursued music before turning to art at age 37, studying ceramics with Glenn Lewis and developing a practice rooted in what she called a "veneration of the ordinary."
