Book excerpt: A celebration of the richness of figurative painting over the last 100 years and a passionate critique of the accepted history of art in the 20th century. Figurative painting is due a reappraisal. In this passionately argued volume the distinguished writer and artist Timothy Hyman cuts a new path through the tangle of twentieth-century art. The World New Made explores the work of more than fifty individual painters, presenting a collective 'Resistance' who together offer a human-centred alternative to the dominance of the Abstract or the Conceptual in conventional narratives of modern art. Structured not as a survey but as in-depth studies of more than 130 specific artworks, this lavishly illustrated book brings these often marginalized artists centre-stage: not just Alice Neel and Balthus, Max Beckmann and Frida Kahlo, but also Marsden Hartley and Charlotte Salomon, Bhupen Khakhar and Jacob Lawrence. A rich cast is brought to life, partly through their own writings. As the author argues, 'All across the world, isolated artists found new idioms for human-centred painting in the midst of modern life.'

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This timely publication, accompanying a brand new survey exhibition at Whitechapel Gallery, presents key works by some of the most exciting practitioners in current figurative painting.0After a long period dominated by abstraction and conceptual approaches, painting saw a revival of figuration in the 1990s by artists whose work updated portraiture and history painting but remained rooted in the conventions of realism. However a new generation, coming to prominence in the new millennium, are distinguished by a radically different approach to the figure, in which bodies are fragmented, morphed, merged and remade but never completely cohesive.0'Radical Figures' highlights the renewed interest in radical modes of figuration during the past two decades, and considers the vast range of imagery, subjects and stories that have informed this transition: from the re-evaluation of early pioneers such as James Ensor and Max Beckman, and postwar painters such as Maria Lassnig and Philip Guston; to raunchy comics; to the ubiquity of photography on social media.0Fully illustrated in colour, this innovative appraisal will explore the breadth and range of painterly techniques used, such as loose gestural brushwork suggesting polymorphous forms and gender fluid bodies, and thick impasto evoking flesh, matter and objecthood. Including newly commissioned texts on and by each artist, this sumptuous catalogue will showcase the best in figurative painting today.00Exhibition: Whitechapel Gallery, London, UK (06.02.-10.05.2020).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last four decades the parameters of sculpture have shifted inexorably. Now, with the rise of artists like Jake & Dinos Chapman and Marc Quinn, the boundaries are even broader. Norbert Lynton's authoritative text investigates the many different approaches employed by British sculptors today, and ranges from established masters such as Anthony Caro, William Turnbull, Eduardo Paolozzi and Lynn Chadwick to the latest generation including David Mach, Don Brown, Ron Mueck, Sokari Douglas Camp, Tim Lewis and Nicola Hicks. The text is complimented by Adrian Flowers' remarkable photographs of the artists and their work. heads and portraits. Jane Ackroyd;s head, Full Moon, belongs to the later history of cubism and has something of Gonzalez's excellent constructed metal heads about it. Glenys Barton's suavely flattened head in glazed ceramic adds vividly to the long history of sculptured heads since ancient times and recalls Renaissance subtleties of form and expression.
