Byzantine Altar College of Art 1960-1966), Philipson’s painting was always more flamboyant than that of the older painter, as indeed he was personally a more extrovert and colourful figure. Initially much influenced by the example of the expressionist painter Oscar Kokoschka, Philipson’s work remained in touch with Continental and American models. While never completely abstract, the motifs he uses, especially nudes, animals and birds, all take their part in a drama that is taking place autonomously within the picture and without any direct reference to any real or imagined events in the world outside. In that respect these two pictures, Byzantine Altar and Humanity: The Rest are very characteristic.

LEFT: teaching in 1989. Towards the Bass Rock At times in his earlier career his painting came close to abstraction, but his real concern has always been with the world around him and the search to find a way of expressing his emotional response to it. Landscape, and especially the sea, have always been central to his art. It is a feature of the east coast of Scotland that cultivation is often taken right to the edge of the sea. In the beautiful small picture, Cornfield and Sea, Houston makes this into a brilliant drama of blue and gold, the waving corn against the waves of the sea, all beneath a blazing sunset sky. The rhythmic brushwork that describes the cornfield and the strong simple colour are a fitting homage to Van Gogh. 6 THE ART COLLECTION 7 DaviD MICHIE edge of the garden.

    P FACE TO FACE Gallery News Issue no. 6 Autumn 2003 Writing in this issue: Julian Fellowes, Bruce Oldfield and Gerald Scarfe FROM THE DIRECTOR The autumn exhibition Below Stairs: 400 Years of Servants’ Portraits offers an unusual opportunity to see fascinating images of those who usually remain invisible. The exhibition offers intriguing stories of the particular individuals at the centre of great houses, colleges or business institutions and reveals the admiration and affection that caused the commissioning of a portrait or photograph. We are also celebrating the completion of the new scheme for Trafalgar Square with the young people’s education project and exhibition, Circling the Square, which features photographs that record the moments when the Square has acted as a touchstone in history – politicians, activists, philosophers and film stars have all been photographed in the Square. Photographic portraits also feature in the DJs display in the Bookshop Gallery, the Terry O’Neill display in the Balcony Gallery and the Schweppes Photographic Portrait Prize launched in November in the Porter Gallery. Gerald Scarfe’s rather particular view of the men and women selected for the Portrait Gallery is published at the end of September. Heroes & Villains, is a light hearted and occasionally outrageous view of those who have made history, from Elizabeth I and Oliver Cromwell to Delia Smith and George Best. The Gallery is very grateful for the support of all of its Patrons and Members – please do encourage others to become Members and enjoy an association with us, or consider becoming a Patron, giving significant extra help to the Gallery’s work and joining a special circle of supporters.

  • Press Release for Immediate Use
    Press Release For immediate use Impulses Towards Life Drawing and painting from the Edinburgh College of Art Collection 31 October – 19 December 2015 Bounding 100 years, Impulses Towards Life emphasises the reimagining of the human form in the last century, including early drawings by William McTaggart, John Bellany, Kirkland Main, Elizabeth Blackadder, Henry Moore and many others; and centred upon a work by Barbara Hepworth that has not been exhibited publicly for 65 years. Based on the Edinburgh College of Art Collection the exhibition accentuates the underlying practice of life drawing studies – a central pillar of art education – and is inclined towards the 1950s and 1960s when the majority of the collection was produced or collected. Also including paintings by Augustus Edwin John, Samuel John Peploe, David McClure, Anne Redpath and David Michie the exhibition outlines an evolving and ongoing negotiation between artists, education and the body. Establishing a backdrop for the exhibition are three prize-winning drawings completed in the 1850s at the Trustees Academy in Edinburgh. These works reflect the classical foundation for artists’ depictions of the body, featuring casts that would become an iconic part of the College’s physical environment. Art students in the second half of the 19th Century – including John Houston, John Mooney, Edward Gage and Kenneth Dingwall – were still required to take part in Life Drawing classes as part of their formal training and assessment, whilst also responding to the imperatives of modernism. By the 1950s debates on the relationship between art and the body centred upon the importance of tactility in understanding art.

He was the second son of Samuel John Peploe and his wife Margaret (née Mackay), a brother for Willy, who had been born in August 1910, in Royan. His earliest memory was being held up to the window at night at the back of the family flat in the New Town to see a hostile Zeppelin dropping bombs onto Leith during a unique raid made in April 1916, which cost 11 lives. The boys lived with their parents in a first floor flat at 13 India Street and went to school at The Edinburgh Academy at the foot of the New Town and both thrived, Willy going up to Oxford to study History at Magdalen. Denis was equally academically bright, but thrived also on the sporting field, excelling at cricket, rugby and golf. In the art department AC Dodds (the one-armed inspiration for the art-master in The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie) was lenient with the tawse and encouraged Denis Peploe, c.1918 Peploe junior in his ambitions to become a painter.

David was a devoted son to his mother Anne Redpath, the happiest of married men with his wife Eileen, the best of fathers to his girls (who have all our thanks for helping prepare this tribute) and a friend to so many, including succeeding staff at The Scottish Gallery. One of whom, Robin McClure, writes a warm introduction over the page. This generosity of heart sprang from David’s intense interest in people: he had much to say but always as part of a conversation. But whatever he was saying he was also looking, a sketchbook seldom far from hand and what he saw and remembered or recorded helped him develop his own visual language to describe many aspects of natural phenomena but also his own feelings. A natural modesty could make him a reluctant exhibitor but the exuberance and colour in his work seeks out the light and attests to a life well lived, full of optimism and creative fulfilment.
