Francesca is a writer and art historian based in Bristol. Since graduating with Distinction from the Warburg Institute in 2015, she has launched into a varied freelance career in the arts. Working at the interface between art and the public has left her adept at transforming complex ideas and academic jargon into something both accessible and (fingers crossed) entertaining.
Francesca is the author of two books: PINCH ME: Trying to Feel Real in the 21st Century and Wilfred Avery and the Unpredictable Image (both October 2023).

As someone who has spent many hours in galleries looking at paintings and wanting to have a deeper understanding of art and its history, this has been the perfect course for me.
It is a very well put-together package of modules, written by experts and each one a pleasure to read and to work through.
