Book Sickert

    Book Details:
  • Author : Wendy Baron
  • Publisher : Yale University Press
  • Release : 2006-01-01
  • ISBN : 0300111290
  • Pages : 614 pages

Download or read book Sickert written by Wendy Baron and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 614 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Walter Richard Sickert (1860-1942) was an artist of prodigious creativity. For sixty years, in his roles as painter, teacher, and polemicist, he was a source of inspiration and influence to successive generations of British painters. With his roots in the Victorian era, Sickert broke all taboos. He was uncompromisingly truthful, revealing beauty in the squalid as in the sublime: in cockney music halls, the crumbling streets of Dieppe, the grand sites of Venice, and the low-life of Camden Town. Decades before Warhol, he exploited the potential of photo-based imagery and of studio production lines to create iconic portraits of the grandees of theatrical, social, and political life. This catalogue is divided into two parts: essay chapters describe Sickert's chronology in terms of stylistic and technical development, and a fully illustrated catalogue presents more than 2800 drawings and paintings, many of which have never been published before.

Book Perfect Moderns

    Book Details:
  • Author : Wendy Baron
  • Publisher : Ashgate Publishing
  • Release : 2000
  • ISBN :
  • Pages : 232 pages

Download or read book Perfect Moderns written by Wendy Baron and published by Ashgate Publishing. This book was released on 2000 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Camden Town, in north-west London, gave its name to a style of painting and to a society of artists - the Camden Town Group - which held three exhibitions in 1911 and 1912. Both the style and the idea of creating an exhibiting society were formed by the interchange of ideas and influences at 19 Fitzroy Street, where in 1907 Walter Sickert first organized a number of painters, the Fitzroy Street Group, to contribute jointly to the rent of a studio. The style encompassed paintings domestic in scale, unpretentious in subject matter, informal and lively in execution. Its favourite themes included humble models, nude or clothed, in shabby bed-sitters; domestic still lives; London townscapes and landscapes studied on visits to the country and abroad.Sickert's own sombre paintings, in particular the Camden Town Murder series, have come to represent the group's oeuvre but, in this beautifully illustrated book, Wendy Baron explores the range of work created through and beyond the heyday of Camden Town painting by his younger colleagues, in particular Spencer Gore, Harold Gilman, Charles Ginner, Robert Bevan and Malcolm Drummond. She traces not only the history of the Camden Town Group but also how its disintegration and reabsorption by the Fitzroy Street Group spawned the London Group in 1913. Her account gives substance and context to the rival societies, conflicting allegiances and changing priorities of painters before the outbreak of war in 1914.This fascinating and scholarly book by the leading expert on the period contains the first full catalogues of publicly owned paintings by Walter Bayes, Bevan, Drummond, Gilman, Ginner, Gore, J.B. Manson, J.D.Innes, Maxwell Gordon Lightfoot and William Ratcliffe.Perfect Moderns is a revised edition, with new research, of Wendy Baron's much acclaimed The Camden Town Group published in 1979.

Book James Dickson Innes  1887 1914

Download or read book James Dickson Innes 1887 1914 written by John Hoole and published by Lund Humphries Publishers Limited. This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: James Dickson Innes (1887-1914) was a Welsh painter who is best known for his Post-Impressionist landscape paintings of Wales. His burgeoning artistic career was tragically cut short by his death aged 27 from TB, but his output of paintings was nevertheless prolific. This is the first book to provide an overview of his art and life and is published to coincide with an exhibition at the National Museum Wales marking the centenary of his death.Innes was born in South Wales and studied at the Slade School of Fine Art, London, from 1905 to 1908, where he met fellow artist Derwent Lees. In 1907 he began a friendship with Augustus John, and with John and Lees Innes wandered over a remote and unfashionable part of North Wales in pursuit of a romantic freedom. He also made several trips abroad in order to paint, most importantly to Collioure, France, in 1908 and 1911.This new book, which incorporates a catalogue of all his known works, provides Innes' growing following of collectors with a definitive source of reference on his work. The scope of the book, while providing an analysis of Innes' stylistic developments, also touches upon, and illustrates, the work of some of his close friends and collaborators, Derwent Lees, Albert Rutherston, John Fothergill and Augustus John. Through the inclusion of accounts of Innes by his male contemporaries, a picture of his personality and his industry is revealed as well as their sense of loss at his early death at the age of 27.
