Seduced: Art and Sex from Antiquity to Now is the first ever mainstream exhibition devoted to exploring the representation of sex in art through the ages. You may have heard all the hype and we have two pairs of tickets to give away.

How to Enter...
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and the female form has been idealized in art in many different ways over time to seduce and tantalize. For your chance of FREE tickets guess which painting this detail above is from and include who you think the artist is.

Please email your answer to competition@bridgeman.co.uk by 15 November 2007. Two winners will be chosen randomly and notified on 16 November 2007. Good luck!

August’s Prize Winner
For our last Bridgeman Buzz competition you could win preview tickets to the New Contemporaries show, guided by Joshua White of Minatour Arts. We had a great response so thanks for entering. Claire Coakley, from Creative Plus, correctly identified the artist’s early work as being a Picasso and was randomly selected. Congratulations! Here she gives her verdict of the event:

“The exhibition was an interesting sample of what’s happening in Britain’s art colleges at the moment and was full of amusing and original ideas. Joshua was an absolute delight and gave fascinating insight into and historic relevance to the exhibits with his fresh and contagious enthusiasm!  I have attached a photo to show how the evening went. I am in the middle and my guest is my sister, Paula."
