Book Charles Conder

Download or read book Charles Conder written by Ann Galbally and published by Melbourne Univ. Publishing. This book was released on 2004-12-30 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Charles Conder was one of the youngest, most original and most talented members of the Heidelberg School of impressionist painters, and one of the few to achieve a lasting reputation outside Australia. His work hangs in many major collections, including the Tate Britain, the Victoria and Albert Museum and the National Portrait Gallery in London and the Metropolitan Museum in New York. Conder painted the Hawkesbury region and Sydney's beaches, including Coogee with Tom Roberts-who invited him to Melbourne. There he joined the artists' camps at Box Hill and Heidelberg, painted urban and bayside scenes and was a major instigator of the famous '9 x 5' Exhibition in 1889. As in Sydney, his carefree charm and delicate, witty paintings endeared him to literary and artistic circles. Paris beckoned early, and he soon fell in with the fin de si cle generation led by Oscar Wilde, Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec and Aubrey Beardsley. He embraced Bohemia, was forever in debt, worked erratically but unceasingly and lived as if there were no tomorrow. Although Conder was rescued from poverty by marriage to a wealthy Canadian widow, his bohemian past eventually called in its account. Tragically, he descended into syphilitic madness and died in his fortieth year. Conder's was a beguiling, charmed, desperate life. He was handsome and rakish and sociable-sensitive to people and place, and extraordinarily talented. Yet his work has been long neglected. If he was waiting for the right biographer, Conder's patience has been vindicated. Ann Galbally investigates her subject with scholarly rigour, but writes with lightness of touch and with passion, sharing her fascination with the people and places Conder knew. This is a splendid biography of a gifted artist whose personal style and unconventional life will appeal to another fin de siecle generation of readers.

Book Performance and Spectatorship in Edwardian Art Writing

Download or read book Performance and Spectatorship in Edwardian Art Writing written by Sophie Hatchwell and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-05-16 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores how Edwardian art writing shaped and narrated embodied, performative forms of aesthetic spectatorship. It argues that we need to expand the range of texts we think of as art writing, and features a diverse array of critical and fictional works, often including texts that are otherwise absent from art-historical study. Multi-disciplinary in scope, this book proposes a methodology for analyzing the aesthetic encounter within and through art writing, adapting and reworking a form of phenomenological-semiotic analysis found conventionally in performance studies. It focuses on moments where theories of spectatorship meet practice, moving between the varied spaces of Edwardian art viewing, from the critical text, to the lecture hall, the West End theatre and gallery, middle-class home, and fictional novel. It contributes to a rethinking of Edwardian culture by exploring the intriguing heterogeneity and self-consciousness of viewing practices in a period more commonly associated with the emergence of formalism.
