Virgina Woolf's collection of writings on visual arts offer a whole
new perspective on the revolutionary author. Despite wide interest
in Woolf's writings, her circle, and her relationship with the
visual arts, there is no accessible edition or selection of essays
dedicated to her writings on art. This newest edition in David
Zwirner Books's ekphrasis series collects such essays including
"Walter Sickert: A Conversation" (1934), "Pictures" (1925), and
"Pictures and Portraits" (1920). These formally inventive texts
examine the connection between the literary writer and the visual
artist and are innovative in their treatment of ideas about color
and modern art as experienced in picture galleries. In these
essays, Woolf looks at the complex and interdependent relationship
between the artist and society. She also provides sharp and astute
commentary on specific works of art and the relationship between
art and writing. An introduction by Claudia Tobin situates the
essays within their cultural contexts.
