In the 1950s, Alberto Giacometti turned with renewed interest to painting. His 'Still Life of an Apple,' looks simple enough but he was tireless in his efforts to define simplicity. The great thing about paint, he said, is that whatever was painted retained a sense of temporality

'Studland Bay.' (1911) Roger Fry championed the Post-Impressionist movement, establishing himself as its leading advocate. This work was painted the year after he had introduced the work of Cézanne to the British public through the 'Manet and the Post-Impressionists,' exhibition.

Edward Hopper often used watercolour for his New England works. His technique was to begin with a quick pencil sketch and then fill in with washes of colour; it gives works such as 'Coast Guard Boat' (1927) a sense of immediacy, and freshness.

Tamara de Lempicka’s 1942 still lifes draw strongly on the traditions of the Dutch Old Masters and the techniques of the Italian Renaissance. During this period, she began using stark, flat backgrounds, against which forms emerge under sharp, theatrical lighting.

It would be sad but compelling book to explore the left (single) handed artist after war (maybe it has been done). I always think Paul Wittgenstein whose prestige (and family wealth) meant that both Ravel and Rachmaninov composed left handed piano pieces especially for him.

'Dilapidation,' the Scottish painter Joan Eardley once said 'is often more interesting to a painter, as is anything that has been used and lived with.' This work, 'The Fireplace at Number One, Catterline,' was painted in 1955.

As more and more students begin using A.I. to complete assignments, professors across the country are changing their approach—and losing their hope. “My emotional response to all this is hard to describe, something between disgust and despair,” a history professor writes. “Was it always the case that half of our students would cheat if it were easy enough?” Jay Caspian Kang collects testimonials from 12 faculty members from across the country on how A.I. usage in the classroom has changed their work.
