Download or read book Trevor Chamberlain written by Trevor Chamberlain and published by Atelier S.. This book was released on 2003 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Trevor Chamberlain's watercolour paintings are a celebration of light and atmosphere, and his skill in painting directly from nature to capture the mood of his subjects has earned him an enviable reputation among both amateur and professional artists. Here Trevor Chamberlain offers a fascinating glimpse over his shoulder as he describes his approach to interpreting the effects of light and weather using the limited watercolourist's palette. Mood in nature is his constant source of inspiration and his favoured subjects are marine, town and landscape. He particularly enjoys capturing the transient aspects of the English weather but he has also travelled extensively and enjoys the challenge of confronting the unfamiliar light and surroundings in exotic locations such as Egypt, Iran and India. An artist of the plein air tradition, he always paints directly from nature at first hand, an approach which he enthusiastically recommends to readers of this book.

Download or read book No Room to Move written by Josephine Berry Slater and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the Creative City model for urban regeneration founders, Anthony Iles and Josephine Berry Slater take stock of an era of highly instrumentalised public art making. Focusing on artists and consultants who have engaged critically with the exclusionary politics of urban regeneration, their analysis locates such practice within a schematic history of urban development's neoliberal mode. Breaking down into a report and collection of interviews, this investigation consistently focuses on the possibility and forms of critical public art within a regime that fetishises 'creativity'. How, they ask, is critical art shaped by its interaction with this aspect of biopolitical governance? Featuring projects and interviews with Alberto Duman, Freee, Nils Norman, Laura Oldfield Ford and Roman Vasseur.

Book Photography of Protest and Community  The Radical Collectives of the 1970s

Download or read book Photography of Protest and Community The Radical Collectives of the 1970s written by Noni Stacey and published by Lund Humphries Publishers Limited. This book was released on 2020-12-31 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the 1970s, London-based photographers joined together to form collectives which engaged with local and international political protest in cities across the UK. This book is a survey of the radical community photography that these collectives produced. The photographers derived inspiration from counterculture while finding new ways to produce, publish and exhibit their work. They wanted to do things in their own way, to create their own magazines and exhibition networks, and to take their politicised photographic and textual commentary on the re-imagination of British cities in the post-war period into community centres, laundrettes, Working Men's Clubs, polytechnics, nurseries - anywhere that would have them. The laminated panel exhibitions were sufficiently robust, when packed into a laundry box, to withstand circulation round the country on British Rail's Red Star parcel network. Through archival research, interviews and newly discovered photographic and ephemeral material, this tells the story of the Hackney Flashers Collective, Exit Photography Group, Half Moon Photography Workshop, producers of Camerawork magazine, and the community darkrooms, North Paddington Community Darkroom and Blackfriars Photography Project. It reveals how they created a 'history from below', positioning themselves outside of established mainstream media, and aiming to make the invisible visible by bringing the disenfranchised and marginalised into the political debate.

Book Artrage

    Book Details:
  • Author : Elizabeth Fullerton
  • Publisher : Thames & Hudson
  • Release : 2021-10-14
  • ISBN : 050077711X
  • Pages : 279 pages

Download or read book Artrage written by Elizabeth Fullerton and published by Thames & Hudson. This book was released on 2021-10-14 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Young British Artists (YBAs) stormed on to the contemporary art scene in 1988 with their attention-grabbing, ironic art, exploding art-world conventions with brazen disdain. Dismissed as trivial gimmickry and praised for its witty energy, their art made a mark both on the art scene and on public consciousness that continues to reverberate today. Artrage! tells the raucous story of the YBAs, chronicling the groups rise to prominence from the landmark show Freeze curated by Damien Hirst, through their 1990s heyday and the notorious Sensation exhibition, to the Momart fire of 2004 that seemed to symbolize the groups fading from centre stage. The book ends with an update on the artists careers and fortunes. Drawing on interviews with all the key BritArt players and extensive archival research, Elizabeth Fullerton examines the individual characters, their relationships to one another, crucial events and seminal artworks, considering, too, the political, economic and artistic context of those years. Plentiful quotations bring out the distinctive personalities and provide fresh insights into the people and the period. Among the artists discussed are Damien Hirst, Rachel Whiteread, Tracey Emin, Jake and Dinos Chapman, Sarah Lucas and Gary Hume.

  • Pages : 0 pages

Download or read book Car Girls written by Jacqueline Hassink and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Earlier this year Aperture published a deluxe edition of Car Girls, limited to 1,500 copies. By popular demand, we are pleased to issue this instant classic in a handy, adorable travel-size. Initially created at the request of one of the biggest European car show exhibitors, this mini-edition is now available to the general public. Car Girls is the culmination of a unique project created over a five-year period. Jacqueline Hassink, who has received critical acclaim for her books and exhibitions, traveled to three different continents and attended seven car shows to capture the work of the women employed to embody the corporate identities of international auto companies. As she describes it, she has used these sites to reflect on differing cultural values with regard to their ideal images of beauty and women. Most crucially, Car Girls is a document of what may have been the last gasp of extravagance from an industry in crisis. Both editions were designed by the award-winning Irma Boom.
