Additional Information

Signed by the author, Katy Hessel’s inspiring new book has a thought-provoking premise: the year ahead is a gift that has been given to you. What might you do with it?

From the bestselling author of The Story of Art Without Men, this book draws on Katy’s own conversations with writers and artists, and includes 65 artworks for the reader to reflect on throughout the year.

The year is full of the promise of work that has yet to be written, paintings that are yet to be painted, people who we have yet to meet, talk, or fall in love with. How to Live an Artful Life: 366 Inspirations from Artists on how to Bring Creativity to Your Everyday encourages us to pay attention, and see the world anew each day.

Gathered from interviews, personal conversations, books and talks, How to Live an Artful Life moves through the months of the year offering you thoughts, reflections and encouragements from artists such as Marina Abramovic, Nan Goldin, Lubaina Himid, Louise Bourgeois and many more.

With a thought for every day of the year, whether you’re looking for beginnings in January, freedom in summer, or transformation as the nights draw in, this is a book to cherish.

Katy Hessel is an art historian and the author of The Story of Art without Men, the international bestseller and Waterstones Book of the Year 2022. She runs the @thegreatwomenartists account on Instagram, hosts The Great Women Artists Podcast, interviewing artists such as Tracey Emin and Marina Abramovic, and is a columnist for the Guardian. Hessel is a Visiting Fellow at Cambridge University and a Trustee of Charleston. In 2024, she launched Museums Without Men, an audio series highlighting works by women artists in museum collections worldwide, such as The Met and Tate Britain.
