Twilights: Essays on Artists’ Late Work, edited by Henriette Heise, explores artistic production at the edge of life, relevance, and possibility. Emerging from a 2024 seminar at the National Gallery of Denmark, this volume brings together fourteen artists and art historians reflecting on late works marked by fragility, persistence, and uncertainty. Blending elegiac, anecdotal, and theoretical approaches, the essays examine figures from Anna Ancher to Félix González-Torres. Addressing themes of ephemerality, grief, and time, they connect formal concerns with lived experience. Together, these texts offer a nuanced perspective on creativity in conditions of limitation, and on continuing to make art without a clear future horizon.
