Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Early Exhibitions of Art in Liverpool: With Some Notes for a Memoir of George Stubbs, R. A Not in music only, but in sister arts, Liverpool took a lead as honourable as surprising. Many towns in England were both larger and richer in 1768; some had greater repute for enterprise, others had powerful patrons. But the establishment of the Royal Academy at London produced its imme diate result on the Mersey. Within twelve months of the granting of its Charter, that is, in 1769, certain gentlemen of Liverpool resolved to make an effort in the same direction. They formed a society, and took an 'academy Room' at No. 30 John Street. The movement as yet was almost confined to drawing-masters and others who had a business interest in the arts. The most of those who engaged in this early attempt will come before us hereafter in connection with the later scheme. What details of their individuality Mr. Mayer or Mr. Picton have been able to recover will be duly set out. The diligence of this latter gentleman, in collecting facts and illustrations of old Liverpool, is surprising, and his lively 'memorials' contrast with the dull monuments of erudition to which we are accustomed. Mr. P. P. Burdett was Pre sident of the Society, which had twenty-one mem bers, viz. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Situating the Tudor dynasty, their court, and the country, in an international context, this book will be highly illustrated and feature contemporary research in an accessible way.

Download or read book Bluecoat Liverpool written by Bryan Biggs and published by . This book was released on 2020-05-23 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bluecoat is a unique and much-loved Liverpool institution, its oldest city centre building. This book tells the fascinating story of its transformation from charity school to contemporary arts centre, the UK's first. Its early 18th century origins shed light on the religious and maritime mercantile environment of the growing port, whose merchants supported the school. Echoes from then are revealed in themes explored by artists in the 20th century, including slavery and colonial legacies. The predominant focus is on an inclusive building for the arts, starting with colourful bohemian society, the Sandon, who established an artistic colony in 1907, hosting significant exhibitions by the Post-Impressionists and many leading modern British artists. Bluecoat Society of Arts emerged as the building's custodians, paving the way for the arts centre which, despite financial struggles and wartime bomb damage, survived and continues to play a prominent role in Liverpool's and the UK's culture. Bluecoat is described as where 'village hall meets the avant-garde'. In its rich story, Picasso, Stravinsky, Yoko Ono, Captain Beefheart, Simon Rattle and the inspirational Fanny Calder are just some of the names encountered, as key strands, including music, visual art, performance and the building's tenants, are traced.

Download or read book The Liverpool Academy and Other Exhibitions of Contemporary Art in Liverpool 1774 1867 written by Edward Morris and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 732 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Liverpool was the first English provincial city in the eighteenth century to hold art exhibitions. Its mid-nineteenth-century exhibitions were notable for attracting Pre-Raphaelite and foreign artists who both had difficulty in showing their works in London. Their development and eventual collapse reveal the importance of municipal enterprise and official subsidy, of the free market and cash flow, of artistic feuds and the battle of styles in the growth of provincial culture. In 1871 art exhibitions were revived in Liverpool under the control of the City Council, but the new Liverpool Autumn Exhibitions were dominated by the Royal Academy and by the other major London exhibiting societies; they no longer needed to be responsive to the local artistic climate and in fact they were a national and not a local institution. This volume makes available to a wider public a remarkable aspect of Liverpool culture. The index to some fifty exhibition catalogues is complemented by extensive essays by Edward Morris and Emma Roberts and six informative appendices.
