6 d. ago Tacita Dean on witnessing Ceal Floyer’s final work of art: ‘She gave death the middle finger’

The Royal Academician celebrates an extraordinary moment as her friend, the artist Ceal Floyer, approached the end of her life last month• Read more: Ceal Floyer obituaryIt is very hard to describe a work by the British conceptual artist Ceal Floyer because description overburdens it.

Charles V kept his celebrated library here; Henri IV installed his cabinets of paintings, objets d’art and arms, and created within its walls a veritable city of artists, where cabinetmakers, tapestry-makers, painters and armourers lived and worked. Under Louis XIII, coins, medals and the Louvre’s printing press were added; under Louis XIV came casts, antiquities and the academies of architecture, the arts and the sciences.The Enlightenment demanded that the masterpieces of the art world be made public; the revolution answered.
