"The first Art Basel Qatar art fair is now open in Qatar's capital, Doha, and The Art Newspaper 's art market editor, Kabir Jhala, joins Ben Luke to discuss its impact, as well as reflecting on the wider artistic outlook in Qatar and the Middle East. The author of a new catalogue raisonné of the work of Albrecht Dürer argues that a painting of the artist's father in the National Gallery in London, long thought to be a copy after Dürer's original, is in fact an autograph work."
"And this episode's Work of the Week is actually a pair of works. That is because there is a compelling double header opening at the Albertinum in Dresden this weekend: the exhibition Paula Modersohn-Becker and Edvard Munch: The Big Questions of Life. The show's co-curator Andreas Dehmer discusses Selbstbildnis mit Hand am Kinn (Self-Portrait with Hand on Chin, 1906) by Modersohn-Becker and Vampir (Vampire, 1895) by Munch with our digital editor, Alexander Morrison."
Art Basel Qatar opened in Doha and runs until 7 February, bringing attention to Qatar's and the Middle East's contemporary art scene. A painting of Albrecht Dürer's father in the National Gallery, long thought to be a copy after Dürer's original, is argued to be an autograph work, prompting debate with detailed arguments for and against its authenticity. The Albertinum in Dresden opens a paired exhibition, Paula Modersohn-Becker and Edvard Munch: The Big Questions of Life, running 8 February–31 May, featuring Modersohn-Becker's Selbstbildnis mit Hand am Kinn (1906/07) and Munch's Vampir (1895).
