Artists have long been actively influenced by the centuries old painting by Vel\u00e1zquez; with their responses, in turn, offering influence back to <em>Las Meninas<\/em> to enable new readings. With the artworks made for <em>\u2018<\/em>Enough is Definitely\u00a0Enough\u2019 there is potential for new relationships with Velasquez&#8217;s original painting to open up.<\/p>\n<p>The exhibition is curated by Andrew Bracey and forms part of his PhD research at the University of Lincoln. He is exploring how contemporary artists have used and appropriated existing paintings by other artists, through a position of using the metaphor of the parasite and symbiosis in connection with painting.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243;
