Abstract: This essay reviews Reimag(in)ing the Victorians, an exhibition curated by Isobel Elstob at the Djangoly Gallery, University of Nottingham 22 September 2023 — 7 January 2024, and also an accompanying monograph titled Reimag(in)ing the Victorians in Contemporary Art: Britain and Beyond by Isobel Elstob, and published by Palgrave Macmillan in 2023. This essay addresses academic exhibition making and meaning, also themes of a Neo-Victorian ‘present past’ in a selection of artworks displayed in the exhibition and discussed in the book, and their geographical re-imagination of sites, spaces and landscapes.
