Victoria Jenkinss Visions of the Occult: An Untold Story of Art & Magic is the first major survey of the occult collection of artworks and objects in the Tate Archive.The word occult comes from the latin occulus, meaning hidden. The underlying assumption is that there is another, unseen world beyond that of the daytoday existencewith magic offering the possibility of connecting these two worlds. Christopher Dell, from The Occult, Witchcraft & Magic (2016)This lavishly illustrated magical volume acts a potent talisman connecting the two worlds of Tatethe seen public collection and the unseen secrets lurking in the archive. The pages of this book explore the hidden artworks and ephemera left behind by artists for the first time and will shed new light on our understanding of the art historical canon. Expect to find the unexpected with artists such as Ithell Colquhoun, John Nash, Barbara Hepworth, David Mayor, Maxwell Armfield, Cecil Collins, Jill Smith and Bruce Lacey, Francis Bacon, Alan Davie, Joe Tilson, Henry Moore, William Blake, Leonora Carrington, and Hamish Fulton.For the first time, the clandestine, magical works of the Tate archive are revealed with archivist Victoria Jenkins acting as the depositary of its secrets. This book explores the symbiotic relationship between art and the occult and how both can act as a form of resistance to challenging environments. Visions of the Occult will change perceptions forever and illuminate the surprising breadth and extraordinary ways in which artists interpret not just the physical world around them but also the supernatural, and in doing so, make the unseen, seen. If you think you know Tate artists, its time to think again.
