Neuware - Published to coincide with the first major exhibition at Tate Britain, marking the 250th anniversary of the birth of two of Britain's most beloved artists, Turner and Constable will give a unique insight into the work of these painters in tandem. Drawing on the very best of their work, the book reveals the ways in which the painters offered two competing and highly original visions of landscape painting, both of which remain powerfully resonant today. Each challenged the artistic norms of their time while also responding to the transformative social, political, economic and environmental developments of the early nineteenth century. Defying convention, they proved that landscape painting could be a vehicle for profound reflections on life as they saw it, paving the way for landscape art to become a vital arena for artistic expression.

Turner and Constable will offer a chance to directly compare highlights from the full span of the two artists' careers. This fresh and ambitious presentation of their work will inspire many to re-connect with these beloved artists anew and equally inspire those who are less familiar with their work to appreciate its vitality, soul and enduring power.…
