Download or read book David Jones written by Thomas Dilworth and published by Catapult. This book was released on 2017-04-15 with total page 651 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Among the revolutions of the last century, none was more important or potentially more lasting than the one in the arts called "Modernism". Among the giants of that movement were writers who changed our conceptions of poetry and prose forever. Now, well into the new century, we can look back to admire and reflect on figures from that period. Last year saw biographies of two monumental poets of Modernism: Robert Crawford's first volume on T. S. Eliot, and David Moody's concluding third volume on the life of Ezra Pound. We are excited to announce the first full–length critical biography of the third member, too often overlooked, of that extraordinary group. The beautifully illustrated David Jones: Engraver, Soldier, Painter, Poet by Thomas Dilworth will stand for generations as the great biography this wonderful artist deserves. Jones (1895–1974) was a painter, a wood– and copper–engraver and maker of painted inscriptions, but it was as a poet that he left his most lasting mark. Eliot called him "one of the most distinguished writers of my generation" and Dylan Thomas said he "would like to have done anything as good as David Jones has done." Auden praised his poem In Parenthesis as "the greatest book [ever] about the Great War", and The Anathemata as one of the "truly great poems in Western Literature." His work, the whole of it, enables him to stand alongside Eliot, Pound, and James Joyce as an incomparable figure in literary Modernism.
Download or read book Dogs in Australian Art written by Steven Miller and published by Wakefield Press. This book was released on 2012 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: DOGS IN AUSTRALIAN ART looks at Australian art through the lens of dog painting, showcasing over 150 masterworks that illustrate the deep bond between Australians and their best friends. Steven Miller's whimsical text argues that all the major shifts which occurred in Australia art, and which have traditionally been attributed to the environment or historical factors, really occurred because of dogs. His book is also a study of how the various dog breeds have been depicted from colonial times until the present.
Download or read book Impact of the Modern written by Robert Dixon and published by Sydney University Press. This book was released on 2008 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Australian and international modernity from the late 19th to the mid-20th century inspires research in many fields of cultural endeavour: architecture, fine arts, design, cinema, theatre, and music; in urban studies, literary history and Aboriginal studies. Impact of the Modern brings together examples of this new interdisciplinary work on modern Australian culture by 21 leading scholars. Their writings reveal an original account of 'modernising' Australia as dynamic and creative in many art forms, and interactively linked with international processes and ideas. The essays in Impact of the Modern were presented as papers at the conference, 'Australian Vernacular Modernities', convened by the editors at the University of Queensland in 2006. Plenary papers by Jill Julius Matthews and Angela Woollacott signal the book's focus on the erotic and gendered spaces, and on popular aspects of modernity. They provide the central focus of the material, through such vital and dynamic categories as the 'modern', the 'erotic' and the 'primitive'. As essential components of the historical processes of innovation and modernisation, these central questions of gender and public sociality are taken up in diverse ways in the other chapters, forming a varied and exciting study of a range of creative Australian engagements with modern international life and popular culture.

Download or read book William Hawkins written by Outlet and published by . This book was released on 1998-12-01 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first book of paintings--122 reproductions--by a brilliant twentieth-century folk artist: a self-taught master, who began to paint when he was ten years old and won national recognition at the age of eighty-five. William Hawkins was born and raised on a small Kentucky farm. Needing to express himself, he used whatever materials were at hand--glossy enamels (ordinary house paints), large pieces of Masonite, heavy paper or cardboard rescued from trash heaps. He painted continuously, earning his living as a truck driver, among other things. His intense, wondrous, quirky paintings are filled with images--startling and playful--that derive from an unruly but inspired sense of freedom and humor. Here are wild animals--an elephant with a striped tusk and trunk...a stag, wide-eyed and startled, looking out from a masklike face; cityscapes; historical and modern landmark architecture; images made from photographs; a red Ferris wheel; a short humpbacked creature with a cone hat, a beak, and a single, pasted-on eye. Handsomely designed and produced, William Hawkins chronicles the life and work of one of our most important folk artists.
