Screen Time: Photography and Video Art in the Internet Age, now on view at Art on Hulfish, features the work of fourteen artists from across the globe who question the evolving role of photography and video in an age of digital communication. While separated by geography, ethnicity, and gender, these artists are united in their concern with the onslaught of information in the twenty-first century. Curated by Richard Reinhart and Phillip Prodger and organized by Curatorial Exhibitions.

New Acquisition
Rebecca Solomon, A Young Teacher

The Art Museum has acquired Rebecca Solomon’s A Young Teacher (1861), a rare and important example of the work of the first professional Jewish woman artist in Britain. Showcasing the technical skill and stylistic fluency that brought Solomon critical acclaim in the male-dominated art world of nineteenth-century England, the painting depicts a scene of Victorian domesticity with a keen social consciousness and remarkably nuanced feeling.
