  • TURNER PRIZE: Most Prestigious— Yet Also Controversial
    TURNER PRIZE: Most prestigious— yet also controversial Since its inception, the Turner Prize has been synonymous with new British art – and with lively debate. For while the prize has helped to build the careers of a great many young British artists, it has also generated controversy. Yet it has survived endless media attacks, changes of terms and sponsor, and even a year of suspension, to arrive at its current status as one of the most significant contemporary art awards in the world. How has this controversial event shaped the development of British art? What has been its role in transforming the new art being made in Britain into an essential part of the country’s cultural landscape? The Beginning The Turner Prize was set up in 1984 by the Patrons of New Art (PNA), a group of Tate Gallery benefactors committed to raising the profile of contemporary art. 1 The prize was to be awarded each year to “the person who, in the opinion of the jury, has made the greatest contribution to art in Britain in the previous twelve months”. Shortlisted artists would present a selection of their works in an exhibition at the Tate Gallery. The brainchild of Tate Gallery director Alan Bowness, the prize was conceived with the explicit aim of stimulating public interest in contemporary art, and promoting contemporary British artists through broadening the audience base. At that time, few people were interested in contemporary art. It rarely featured in non-specialist publications, let alone in the everyday conversations of ordinary members of the public. The Turner Prize was named after the famous British painter J.

It is the discernment of the reality of life, a piercing of the superficial surfaces of material existence that gives a work of art its own life and purpose and significant power.1 (Barbara Hepworth, 1937) In 1966, in her autobiographical essay A Sculptor’s Landscape, Barbara Hepworth reiterated the mental, rather than the visual inspiration that informed virtually all of her abstract, sculptural drawings from the early 1940s onwards, when she wrote: I rarely draw what I see – I draw what I feel in my body.2 By sculp- tural, I mean that the drawings echoed, were a two-dimensional exploration of her current three- dimensional obsessions.

Eleanor Clayton: A normal person from Wakefield; A remarkable artist but a remarkable woman. Stephen Feeke: Hepworth was odd because she didn't see herself as a feminist at all and didn't see herself as “I'm a pioneering woman”. She just felt she was a pioneering sculptor. Barbara Hepworth: I was born with the ideas of certain shapes in my mind. At least I remember as far back as seven. The whole time one's been working at it and working, trying to simplify and make more mature, get the right scale, and develop it according to the development of society. [music] Jo Baring: Hello, and welcome to Sculpting Lives the podcast by me, Jo Baring. Sarah Victoria Turner: And me, Sarah Turner. Jo, this is our first podcast and episode. Why are we doing this? Jo Baring: We met in our professional lives. You are Deputy Director of the Paul Mellon Centre, and I am Director of the Ingram Collection. We have a shared interest in art, but we realised when we met that we are really fascinated by sculpture in particular. Also, during the course of our discussions, we realised that women artists and women sculptors, in general, are less commercially successful than men, less represented in national institutions, museums, possibly have less gallery shows and we really wanted to unpick why that happens.

  • Old Chiswick Protection Society
    Old Chiswick Protection Society Autumn 2020 Newsletter Old Chiswick Protection Society exists to preserve and enhance the amenities of this riverside conservation area. Even the geese are social distancing! [Photograph: David Humphreys] Chairman’s Message As we look back at the last months, the Old Chiswick Conservation Area has become even more precious to many of us who live here, work here or visit. We have seen and spoken with visitors, previously unfamiliar with our environment and its atmosphere and history, who are enjoying it for the first time. Nature carries on here regardless, and our history continues to be relevant and vital to our future. We can't take anything for granted though. It is only with the support of our members' subscriptions and diligent work that we are here today and can be so proud of what has been achieved by the charity over the last 60 years. Old Chiswick could so easily have looked and felt very different: no Chiswick Eyot, with its unique withy beds and nature reserve; houses where Homefields Recreation Ground South is; an entirely different main road into and out of London, sacrificing more historical buildings; post-war housing instead of Georgian houses along Chiswick Mall. Our community has done much to help others this year, and we continue to build relationships with those like Asahi who are new to the area since taking over Fuller’s Brewery, and who have expressed a wish to become part of the community. We look forward to inviting you to join our AGM this year, which will of course be conducted on line, with the very latest advice on meetings.

  • OLAFUR ELIASSON a View Becomes a Window
    Ivorypress presents OLAFUR ELIASSON A view becomes a window Official opening: Thursday 19 September 2013 at 7:30 p.m. Exhibition: From 19 to 28 September 2013 Venue: Ivorypress Space C/ Comandante Zorita 48 (Madrid) Once the exhibition has ended, the book will continue to be exhibited in the permanent exhibition of Ivorypress’s artists’ books, which can be visited by appointment every Wednesday. On 19 September Ivorypress will present the artist’s book A view becomes a window, by Olafur Eliasson. An edition of nine unique books in which the author proposes a new experience between the book and its observer. Until 28 September, Ivorypress will host—as part of the programme of the next edition of the event APERTURA, in Madrid—an exhibition in which several of the volumes of this book, published by Ivorypress, will be shown. Glass and light are the main elements of the work. In lieu of pages, the volumes contain a variety of glass sheets of various colours, qualities, and degrees of opacity. Each copy, bound with leather, sits upon a bookrest to be observed in great detail and thus experience the abstract narrative game initiated by the artist. ‘A view becomes a window is an homage to the book as a space in which we find ourselves. You can see the previous page and the next one through those you are perusing; you never read only one page at a time. In a sense, the full book is present within any one spread’, explains Eliasson. ‘This internal depth and texture is merged with the immediate surroundings; the space and the reader are reflected in the deep, glassy surfaces in which ultimately you—the reader—are read by the book.’ Some of the glass plates have ellipses and circles cut into them, framing the lector’s face as they turn the pages.

  • Studio International Magazine: Tales from Peter Townsend’S Editorial Papers 1965-1975
    Studio International magazine: Tales from Peter Townsend’s editorial papers 1965-1975 Joanna Melvin 49015858 2013 Declaration of authorship I, Joanna Melvin certify that the worK presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this is indicated in the thesis. i Tales from Studio International Magazine: Peter Townsend’s editorial papers, 1965-1975 When Peter Townsend was appointed editor of Studio International in November 1965 it was the longest running British art magazine, founded 1893 as The Studio by Charles Holme with editor Gleeson White. Townsend’s predecessor, GS Whittet adopted the additional International in 1964, devised to stimulate advertising. The change facilitated Townsend’s reinvention of the radical policies of its founder as a magazine for artists with an international outlooK. His decision to appoint an International Advisory Committee as well as a London based Advisory Board show this commitment. Townsend’s editorial in January 1966 declares the magazine’s aim, ‘not to ape’ its ancestor, but ‘rediscover its liveliness.’ He emphasised magazine’s geographical position, poised between Europe and the US, susceptible to the influences of both and wholly committed to neither, it would be alert to what the artists themselves wanted. Townsend’s policy pioneered the magazine’s presentation of new experimental practices and art-for-the-page as well as the magazine as an alternative exhibition site and specially designed artist’s covers. The thesis gives centre stage to a British perspective on international and transatlantic dialogues from 1965-1975, presenting case studies to show the importance of the magazine’s influence achieved through Townsend’s policy of devolving responsibility to artists and Key assistant editors, Charles Harrison, John McEwen, and contributing editor Barbara Reise.

  • Caro/Araeen: a Conversation the Sculpture of Anthony Caro (1924
    Caro/Araeen: A Conversation The sculpture of Anthony Caro (1924-2013) inspired a generation of young artists in the 1960s and 1970s encouraging them to think differently about the forms and meanings of sculpture, about its relationship to the human body and about its material and spatial possibilities. Soon championed by the American art critic Clement Greenberg, a supporter of the sculptor David Smith (1906-65), Caro enjoyed huge success, both in the context of the ‘New Generation’ exhibition at Whitechapel Art Gallery in 1965 and the acclaimed St Martins’ Sculpture Department which included Philip King (b. 1934), William Tucker (b. 1935) and Tim Scott (b. 1937). For Rasheed Araeen (b. 1935) who first encountered Caro’s work in 1965 soon after moving to Britain from Pakistan, such sculpture was hugely influential. On seeing it, Araeen decided to make a ‘fresh start’ (to quote the artist), giving up painting and creating works such as ‘Sculpture No. 2’ (1965), in which painted metal beams were stacked together in rows to form a cube which comprised tunneled internal spaces. Such works would begin a rich and complex conversation with Caro’s sculpture that effectively carries on into the present, as the lives of Araeen’s fabricated structures extend into the present. In recent years, Araeen himself has reflected on this early mid-1960s shift, reading it as a moment of continuation as much as conversion. He has recalled that he was open to new ideas whilst also channeling pre-existent expertise into new areas. He was also a young, thirty-year old man quickly looking for other ways of seeing and doing things, as he has recalled in relation to Caro: ‘I soon became fed up with this juggling of material – putting things here and there until you found something significant.’ Araeen was not alone in this and it would be interesting to triangulate such considerations by considering potential so-called ‘minimalist’ dialogues with works by other constructivist artists working in Britain at this time, such as Kenneth Martin (1905-84), Mary Martin (1907-69), Anthony Hill (b.

Constructionism had emerged in the 1950s, developing a socially engaged art closely aligned with post-war architecture. Its moment was not to last however, and, as discourses changed in the 1960s and 1970s, constructionism was marginalised.
