Art and Labour
This May 1st, for International Workers' Day, Art Explora Academy offers you a playlist dedicated to the representation of workers in art. Take a look at 19th century painting and discover how at that time, from Millet to Caillebotte, the industrial revolution and social revolutions became great subjects for painting!
‘Lowry is Britain’s preeminent painter of the industrial city’ says Tate curator Helen Little, as she introduces the exhibition ‘Lowry and the Painting of Modern Life’.
