    THE LUTYENS TRUST To protect and promote the spirit and substance of the work of Sir Edwin Lutyens O.M. NEWSLETTER WINTER 2021 A REVIEW OF NEW BOOK ARTS & CRAFTS CHURCHES BY ALEC HAMILTON By Ashley Courtney It’s hard to believe this is the first book devoted to Arts and Crafts churches in the UK, but then perhaps a definition of these isn’t easy, making them hard to categorise? Alec Hamilton’s book, published by Lund Humphries – whose cover features a glorious image of St Andrew’s Church in Sunderland, of 1905 to 1907, designed by Albert Randall Wells and Edward Schroeder Prior – is split into two parts. The first, comprising an introduction and three chapters, attempts a definition, placing this genre in its architectural, social and religious contexts, circa 1900. The second, larger section divides the UK into 14 regions, and shows the best examples in each one; it also includes useful vignettes on artists and architects of importance. For the author, there is no hard- and-fast definition of an Arts and Crafts church, but he makes several attempts, including one that states: “It has to be built in or after 1884, the founding date of the Art Workers’ Guild”. He does get into a bit of a pickle, however, but bear with it as there is much to learn. For example, I did not know about the splintering of established religion, the Church of England, into a multitude of Nonconformist explorations. Added to that were the social missions whose goal was to improve the lot of the impoverished; here social space and church overlapped and adherents of the missions, such as CR Ashbee, taught Arts and Crafts skills.

  • Sir Edwin Lutyens Primary Helpsheet
    Sir Edwin Lutyens Sir Edwin Lutyens (29th March 1869 -1st January 1944) was one of the leading British architects of the 20th century. He was known for adapting traditional architectural styles to the needs of the time. His works include houses, bridges and public gardens. He was one of the three principal architects appointed to the Imperial (now Commonwealth) War Graves Commission (IWGC) when the Commission was formed in 1917 designing many memorials and cemeteries in France and Belgium in the years following the end of World War I. He also designed a number of war memorials in the UK, including The Cenotaph in Whitehall. This helpsheet is designed to be used by primary teachers as background information on Sir Edwin Lutyens. There is also a set of Sir Edwin Lutyens fact cards which can be shared with pupils. Both this helpsheet and the fact cards can be used as part of WMT’s Art unit of work: Great artists and war memorials. Early life Lutyens was born in London, the ninth son and tenth child of Charles and Mary Lutyens who went on to have a total of thirteen children. As a child he suffered from rheumatic fever and as such was the only one of the boys in the family not to go to public school or university. He shared his sisters’ governess and received extra schooling from a much older brother in the holidays. While growing up in Thursley, Surrey Lutyens was able to follow his passion of looking at houses and watched all stages of the buildings in the local area going up.

  • A Brief History of War Memorial Design
    A BRIEF HISTORY OF WAR MEMORIAL DESIGN War Memorials in Manitoba: An Artistic Legacy A BRIEF HISTORY OF WAR MEMORIAL DESIGN war memorial may take many forms, though for most people the first thing that comes to mind is probably a freestanding monument, whether more sculptural (such as a human figure) or architectural (such as an arch or obelisk). AOther likely possibilities include buildings (functional—such as a community hall or even a hockey rink—or symbolic), institutions (such as a hospital or endowed nursing position), fountains or gardens. Today, in the 21st century West, we usually think of a war memorial as intended primarily to commemorate the sacrifice and memorialize the names of individuals who went to war (most often as combatants, but also as medical or other personnel), and particularly those who were injured or killed. We generally expect these memorials to include a list or lists of names, and the conflicts in which those remembered were involved—perhaps even individual battle sites. This is a comparatively modern phenomenon, however; the ancestors of this type of memorial were designed most often to celebrate a victory, and made no mention of individual sacrifice. Particularly recent is the notion that the names of the rank and file, and not just officers, should be set down for remembrance. A Brief History of War Memorial Design 1 War Memorials in Manitoba: An Artistic Legacy Ancient Precedents The war memorials familiar at first hand to Canadians are most likely those erected in the years after the end of the First World War. Their most well‐known distant ancestors came from ancient Rome, and many (though by no means all) 20th‐century monuments derive their basic forms from those of the ancient world.

Th e Catholic Church in Liverpool also responded to urban redevelopment with ambition and innovation. As architectural expert Charles Reilly announced to readers of the New York Times in 1930, ‘ Liverpool is starting to build a second and even greater cathedral. Her new project, indeed, calls for the greatest cathedral in the world next to St Peter ’ s at Rome. ’1 Designed by Edwin Lutyens, ‘ arguably the greatest British architect of the twentieth century, ’ the planned Catholic cathedral, named the Metropolitan Cathedral of Christ, was intended to be second largest in the world and expected to cost £ 3 million.2 Th e impact of the cathedral on the city and beyond was highly anticipated: ‘ I see the cathedral then, like a rainbow across the skies radiating the true and the good ’ , wrote one prominent member of Liverpool Archdiocese.3 For the Archdiocese and, in particular for the cathedral ’ s pioneer, Archbishop of Liverpool Richard Downey (1881 – 1953), it represented an opportunity to transform the way in which Catholicism was seen both in Britain and beyond.

    Sharon Phelan / Christina Kubisch. Site for Christina Kubisch's sound installation in the National War Memorial Gardens, Dublin. Courtesy of the Goethe- Institute and Eugene Langan. Christina Kubisch, Voices of Memory at the Irish National War Memorial Gardens. 30 June 1916. The eve of the Battle of the Somme. 100 years later, a listening engagement. At the Irish War Memorial Gardens, the date marks the beginning of a long dedication to those who died. Overlooking the River Liffey, Christina Kubisch’s sound work emits from four speakers attached to a telegraph pole. Voices of Memory recalls over 40,000 soldiers’ names that rest in the Books of the Dead. A portrait of a nation. It is art to contemplate, as well as a memorial to the Irish lives lost in WWI. These gardens, designed by Sir Edwin Lutyens, were once overgrown and abandoned, a forgotten memorial. Now, an arcadian scene of leisurely tranquility. Passers amble by. Boat clubs line the opposite bank, and a paddling of ducks glide along the river’s edge. Repetition, repetition, then change. A man’s voice reads a list of names until they collide on top of each other in a dense, abstract layer. A pause, before the sounds of life on the river bed are brought to the surface through underwater field recordings. The wind erodes parts of the composition and carries them elsewhere. The remembering resumes. A blur of names. It is now a female voice. I am struck by the cadence and tonality of each acousmatic sound, their circadian rhythms oblivious to time and space, imbued with a humanity far removed from the rates of fire of the front-line trenches.

  • Architectural Design Competition for a Commemorative Bridge at Irish National War Memorial Garden
    Architectural Design Competition for a Commemorative Bridge at Irish National War Memorial Garden The Commissioners of Public Works in Ireland are seeking proposals from an architect-led team for the design of a bridge comprising of 4 elements, namely: 1. A new Pedestrian and Cycle Bridge which will span the River Liffey, and connect the war memorial gardens and an existing cycleway, 2. be a formal ceremonial entrance at the Chapelizod Road side of the river, and, 3. have an open Plaza space linking this entrance to the bridge for ceremonial occasions, 4. suitably land formed and landscaped, to be located at The Irish National War Memorial Gardens (INWMG) & lands to north of the River Liffey at the UCD Boat Club, Islandbridge, Dublin. The INWMG, designed by Sir Edwin Lutyens, commemorates the estimated 49,400 Irish people who died during the First World war 1914-18. Lutyens’ original concept design for the gardens included a three-arched bridge spanning the Liffey, linking the Gardens to Chaplelizod Road and further on to the Phoenix Park. Although the INWMG were constructed during Lutyens lifetime, the powerful symbolism of the river, its crossing, and the connectivity with the Phoenix Park are yet to be realised. Lutyens clearly considered the continuous flow of the river as being the age-old metaphor for life, which he juxtaposed against the solemn static elements of the Gardens. The current access point to the INWMG is confusing and ill defined. Many Dubliners have trouble locating the gardens. The Bridge and formal entrance to the gardens will facilitate a greater number of visitors to the Gardens by virtue of its prominence and increased significance.

Abstract Sir Leslie Martin wrote in 1983, “The formal composition used by Lutyens is something totally related to the problems and culture of his time”. To reinforce this point Martin included a plan of Heathcote (1905) next to an illustration of one of Palladio’s final commissions, the Villa Rotonda (1566). Comparing the planning and symmetry strategies of the two architects, Martin was able to demonstrate how Heathcote embodied an eclectic yet fundamental link between two traditions - the irregularity of an Edwardian planning arrangement, and its containment within the symmetry demanded by the “full classical orchestra of a Doric order” (Hussey, 1950 p128). “Once inside the balanced mass of the exterior, the visitor’s movement through the building is controlled by volumes and composition of a totally different kind” 1.
