  • Minton, John (1917-1957) by Shaun Cole
    Minton, John (1917-1957) by Shaun Cole Encyclopedia Copyright © 2015, glbtq, Inc. Entry Copyright © 2002, glbtq, Inc. Reprinted from http://www.glbtq.com John Minton was a painter of landscapes, town scenes, and figure subjects in oil and watercolor, as well as an acclaimed illustrator. Minton's homosexuality was an important influence on his work. One of his main themes was the young male figure in emotionally charged settings. Like many middle class gay men of his generation, Minton was drawn to men who fulfilled a manly ideal, and this attraction manifested itself in much of his work, where he portrayed his handsome working class lovers and other ideals of masculinity such as Guardsmen and matadors. A key figure of the 1940s neo-Romantic movement and a celebrity of London's bohemia, Minton lived and worked with most of the younger generation of neo-Romantic artists including Michael Ayrton, Robert Colquhoun, Robert MacBryde, and Keith Vaughan. Born on December 25, 1917, Minton studied at St John's Wood School of Art from 1935 to 1938 and later went on to teach at Camberwell School of Art (1943-1946), Central School of Art and Crafts (1946-1948), and the Royal College of Art (1948 until his death in 1957). Minton's early work focused on the urban landscape he discovered during nocturnal jaunts around London, where he also discovered an active sexual underground. Visits to Spain in 1949 and Jamaica in 1950 offered Minton a fresh repertoire of subjects and enriched his palette of colors. Although Minton was dedicated to painting, his reputation developed as a result of his skill as an illustrator.

Colquhoun studied at Glasgow School of Art where he met Robert MacBryde. The two became lovers. They were part of a celebrated Soho group that included Francis Bacon and Lucian Freud. Their post-cubist work - much influenced by Picasso - became enormously successful. In the 1950s they established worldwide reputations. Colquhoun's drinking and temperament caught up with him and he died almost penniless in 1962. MacBryde was killed in a car accident four years later. This catalogue with over 90 illustrations accompanies the only show to ever exhibit both artists together. The authors refer to previously unpublished letters and explore the 'Two Roberts' individual art practice as well as works the two executed together. Patrick Elliott is a Senior Curator at the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art, Edinburgh.

At the same time, the Gallery is also exhibiting the work of American artist Thomas Joshua Cooper who presents large-scale atmospheric photographs of the Atlantic Ocean made at the edges of the land in Scotland and Cornwall. In Upper Gallery 2 visitors will be able to see a new display of ceramics focusing on the work of Bernard Leach and Shoji Hamada. The writer and ceramist Emmanuel Cooper has been invited to curate a new ‘craft showcase’ offering a reinterpretation of the Wingfield Digby Collection.

  • Young Lucian: Art in Wartime London
    Chapter 1 YOUNG LUCIAN: ART IN WARTIME LONDON He was totally alive, like something not entirely human, a leprechaun, a changeling child, or, if there is a male opposite, a witch. Stephen Spender on the young Lucian Freud n 1942 London was partially in ruins. Robert Colquhoun, a young painter who had arrived from Scotland the year before, was astonished by what he saw. ‘Te destruction in the West End is incredible,’ Colquhoun Iwrote, ‘whole streets fattened out into a mass of rubble and bent iron.’ He noted ‘a miniature pyramid in Hyde Park’ constructed from the wreckage of destroyed buildings. One suspects that, like other artists, he found the spectacle beautiful as well as terrible. Graham Sutherland, then one of the most celebrated British artists of the generation under forty, travelled into London by train from his house in Kent to depict the desolation. He would never forget his frst encounter with the bombed City of London during the Blitz in the autumn of 1940: ‘Te silence, the absolute dead silence, except every now and again a thin tinkle of falling glass – a noise which reminded me of the music of Debussy.’ To Sutherland’s eyes, the shattered buildings seemed like living, sufering creatures. A lift shaft, twisted yet still standing in the remains of a building, struck him as resembling ‘a wounded tiger in a painting by Delacroix’. Tis was a city under siege, which had just escaped armed invasion. Te arts, like every aspect of life, were rationed and much reduced. At the National Gallery, just one picture a month was on display.
