These artists foregrounded a new artistic

Stefanos Carras Saint Takyi, detail from First to be born, first to die, 2026. Photograph by Stefanos Carras  Woven intimately between each other, the works of Ivan Moraes and Saint Takyi carry out a joint exploration of colour, technique, gender and spirituality.

I began my visit to Artemisia: Heroine of Painting at the Musée Jacquemart-André with a simple question: how would the gallery frame an artist whose biography so often overshadows her work?

But it all feels a little déjà vu. They’ve been staging the same spectacle for decades. The ever-provocative duo, who met at Cent
