Join us for the launch of the 2025 issue ofImmediations, ĢƵ Art Journal of Postgraduate Research.
This edition ofImmediationsincludes an interview, three articles, and five reviews on the theme ‘Soft’. The interview with Emma Richardson, Director of Research at Rochester Institute of Technology’s Image Permanence Institute in New York, was conducted by Alice Dodds, and provides the image on the cover. The articles cover a diverse range of time periods and geographies, investigating the limits of art and art history. Orlando Giannini and Ana-Maria Milčić consider mother-daughter relationships in the paintings of Chantal Joffe. Molly Lewis provides a nuanced study of a medieval gothic ivory, drawing on her own intimate examination of the object. Ekaterina Zinurova considers Martiros Saryan’s paintings of his native Armenia, displayed at the Soviet Pavilion of the 1924 Venice Biennale, as a manifestation of ‘soft power’.
This issue also includes exhibition and book reviews by Emily Abney, Amy Elder, Rachel Hartley, Alex Bispham, and Amelia Mielniczek.
