Happiness is walking down a sunlit street ☀️

Ciara, age 18, said this painting was inspired by “a photograph that I took on my 18th birthday, a pivotal moment in my life. The name for this piece is inspired by how now, being an adult, I may begin to see my life in a different light than before.”

Ciara’s artwork was selected for this year’s Young Artists’ Summer Show. The display is now closed but the exhibition continues online: https://roy.ac/4nijye

It's Friday, anyone going down the pub? 🍺

Ruskin Spear RA often painted the regulars in his local pubs - the Hampshire Hog and the Ravenscourt Arms in Hammersmith. The angle of the picture, the subject partly hidden behind the beer taps, gives the impression it was not a formally posed composition but a small surreptitious sketch.

In 1975, Marina Abramović met fellow artist Ulay (Frank Uwe Laysiepen).

In Ulay, she found a partner equally interested in pushing the body’s limits to create art. The fusion of their creative energies gave rise to an entity, which they named ‘That Self’, which was expressed through works they created together for more than a decade.

See Abramović and Ulay’s iconic limit-pushing performances in our 'Marina Abramović' exhibition: https://roy.ac/m7r339

This free display in the Collection Gallery shows stunning portraits of five contemporary British artists by internationally renowned photographer Catherine Opie. These include Royal Academy Schools graduate Lynette Yiadom-Boakye and Royal Academicians David Hockney and Gillian Wearing.

Opie uses high-contrast lighting to render her subjects in dramatic detail and sets each sitter against a solid black backdrop, drawing on the theatricality of 17th-century Baroque painting.

"I screamed at the top of my lungs, shrieking out all my frustration with everything: Belgrade, Yugoslavia, my mother, my entrapment. I screamed until my voice was gone- three hours later."

Marina Abramović's 1976 performance 'Freeing the Voice' saw her lie on her back and scream continuously until she completely lost her voice. Freeing the Voice was one of three performances where Abramović used exhaustion to cleanse her mind of the three main modes of expression: voice, language, and body.

Happy Halloween! 🎃👻

Take some costume inspo from these unpublished gothic illustrations by Charles Stewart, created for the Gormenghast series of novels by Mervyn Peake.

Stewart's interest in the gothic is rooted in his childhood spent in a Victorian mansion in Scotland, which he described as "lit by oil lamps and candles … to a small child it seemed a giant's castle… ghosts were largely taken for granted by the inhabitants."

'I wanted to test the limits of how far the public would go if I didn't do anything at all. If someone wanted to put the bullet into the pistol and use it, I was ready for the consequences.'

In this 1974 work, Rhythm 0, Marina Abramović placed herself as a passive "object" before her audience. Confronted with 72 different tools representing pleasure and pain, participants were invited to use them on her body. The performance lasted six hours, with the audience’s actions escalating to humiliating and hurting the artist.

Our exhibition features archival footage of Rhythm 0 alongside a table recreating the 72 tools used in the performance. Book your tickets now: https://roy.ac/m7r339

Bear v squirrel 🐻🐿️

Izzy, age 17, trekked through Canada’s Yukon region last summer. The artist explains: “One morning, we woke up to odd sounds near the tents and thought it was a bear but, on further investigation, it was a group of squirrels fighting aggressively.” Her ‘Yukon Bear’ print shows what might have been!

Luckily, Izzy wasn't eaten by a bear (or an angry squirrel) and her print was selected for this year’s Young Artists’ Summer Show. See all the amazing artworks in the online exhibition: https://roy.ac/4nijye

Marina Abramović's 'Balkan Baroque' was an immensely powerful work, created in response to the Yugoslav wars of the 1990s. The artist performed a ritual act of cleansing the horrors of war, sitting on a heap of stinking, bloody cow bones for four days, crying and singing Balkan folksongs, while attempting to wash each bone individually. The work won Abramović the Golden Lion at the Venice Biennale in 1997.
