Editor: This is an X-radiograph of "Entry to Jerusalem" by Domingo Valls, revealing the painting's underlayers. It's fascinating to see the bones of a work, its hidden structure. What can we learn from this technical view? Curator: It invites us to consider the power dynamics inherent in art history. Who gets to create, whose work is preserved, and how is it analyzed? The x-ray reveals not just the artist’s process but also the layers of interpretation and potential biases we bring to understanding cultural objects. What stories are hidden beneath the surface? Editor: That's compelling – it’s more than just seeing the underpainting, it’s about questioning the entire structure of art historical narratives. Curator: Precisely. By interrogating these layers, we challenge the established canon and open space for more inclusive dialogues. Editor: I’ll definitely look at art differently now!
