![]() ![]() Beckett never dated her paintings and this has made the dating of her work very difficult for art historians and curators. Across this period, she created only oil paintings and the changes in her painting approach and subject matter are very subtle. Spanning sixteen years, Clarice Beckett’s active professional career was relatively brief for a major artist. The curator may choose to include drawings, photographs, prints and oil paintings, along with other interpretative material including music, video etc. In some instances different genres may also be included, such as still life, portraiture or landscape. Sometimes the curator may give greater emphasis to a particular period in the artist’s career or highlight certain processes, ideas or media. They usually follow a chronology to demonstrate the shifts and developments that evolve across an artist’s body of work. These are also called monographic exhibitions. Retrospective and survey exhibitions assess a large body of work by a single artist. ![]()
