'For almost as long as humans have pondered over the stars and their meanings, astrological and cosmological subjects have appeared in art.'

Spanning the centuries and featuring more than 70 masterpieces, Astrology in Art traces a stunning visual history of Western astrology, showing how artists from Botticelli to Andy Warhol have drawn on celestial symbolism to explore ideas about time, belief and human experience.

From 12th-century cathedrals to Surrealist paintings and modern sculpture, art historian Ferren Gipson highlights works that weave together symbols from astronomy, astrology and mythology to glittering effect.

Astrology in Art takes us on a journey through the heavens, honouring our fascination with the stars and decoding some of art's most intriguing and illuminating pieces.

Includes works by Hilma af Klint, Andy Warhol, Alphonse Mucha, Albrecht Dürer, Salvador Dali, Ernest Procter, Botticelli, Betye Saar, Fransisco Goya, Jan Brueghel the Younger, Man Ray, David Shrigley, Evelyn de Morgan, Paul Klee, Max Ernst, Joan Miro, Grayson Perry and Kiki Smith.

Ferren Gipson is a British-American art historian, writer, artist, teacher and broadcaster. She is the author of Women's Work (Frances Lincoln, 2022), The Ultimate Art Museum (Phaidon, 2021) and The Art Book for Children (Phaidon, 2024). She is the host of the Art Matters podcast.
