Fara Dabhoiwala · A Man of Parts and Learning: Francis Williams Gets His Due The only certainty about the picture is that it shows Francis Williams. No one has ever been able to discover who...

A tour-de-force of scholarship and detective work: Fara Dabhoiwala reveals that a portrait of an 18th-century Black scientist, long dismissed as a caricature, is in fact a record of the man's mastery of Newtonian physics—and the only painting made in 1759 of the return of Halley's comet.

An incident long ago in Owen Sound.

Painting by Andrew James Paterson

"Art is, for me, the process of trying to wake up the soul. Because we live in an industrialised, fast-paced world that prefers that the soul remain asleep."
- Bill Viola

"Abstract is not a style. I simply want to make a surface work."
- Joan Mitchell

“As long as the music's loud enough, we won't hear the world fall apart.”
- Derek Jarman

“Listen carefully to first criticisms made of your work. Note just what it is about your work that critics don't like - then cultivate it. That's the only part of your work that's individual and worth keeping.”
― Jean Cocteau

“Against the background of general freakishness the case of my particular freakishness was lost.”
- Witold Gombrowicz, Ferdydurke
