A new scientific study has revealed the cause of deterioration in Salvador Dalí's 1946 painting 'The Temptation of Saint Anthony.' Researchers from the Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium and an international team used advanced imaging techniques to determine that the degradation, which includes areas becoming transparent or textured, is linked to the chemical interaction between a zinc white paint layer and an amber varnish layer, both materials specifically advocated by Dalí in his own artistic manual.

kevin mcgarry reviews jason faragos even 300996

Kevin McGarry reviews the debut issue of *Even*, a new print art journal launched by *Guardian* contributor Jason Farago during Frieze New York. Named after a phrase from Marcel Duchamp's *The Bride Stripped Bare By Her Bachelors, Even*, the magazine is a small, paperback-sized publication that prioritizes text over images, positioning itself as an antidote to market-driven art discourse. The first issue features a lengthy essay on artist Joan Jonas by Elisabeth Lebovici, timed to Jonas's U.S. pavilion at the 56th Venice Biennale, and a piece by Zachary Woolfe on the Björk exhibition at MoMA. McGarry critiques the journal's ambition to revitalize art criticism, noting that while its goals are lofty, the content sometimes falls back on familiar artspeak.

pierre bonnard louvre bonnarding 2632237

French Post-Impressionist artist Pierre Bonnard was known for his compulsive habit of retouching his paintings long after they were considered finished, even allegedly sneaking into museums and collectors' homes with a hidden palette and brush to make adjustments. According to the article, Bonnard would enlist friends like fellow artist Édouard Vuillard to distract guards while he worked, and the poet Jane Hirschfield coined the term "bonnarding" to describe this obsessive practice. The article recounts a persistent rumor that Bonnard was once arrested in the Louvre while retouching his own work, though this is likely a myth.
