Rose's Wyndham --Lewis at Cornell, the increasing interest in Lewis' multi-faceted career has made the preparation of a more detailed description of the collection both desirable and necessary. As limned in Rose's work and listed in this catalogue, the collection's contents include manuscript material spanning Lewis ' half- century of artistic activity and documenting literary friendships and feuds. Unpublished short stories, poetry, and novels are complemented by notes and working drafts for much of Lewis' most notable published work -- -The Apes ---of God, Self Condemned, and his masterwork, -The Human Age. Included in the listing of Lewis' literary manuscripts are proof copies of some works, amended and corrected by the author, The collection in the Department of Rare Books of Lewis ' printed books (not a part of this volume) numbers among its holdings many volumes from Lewis ' personal library; several, including -Hitler, ---The Ideal Giant, and -----The Art of Being Ruled,are annotated in his hand. Material listed in this catalogue has been arranged in two general formats. Individual catalogue cards for the literary manuscripts of Wyndham Lewis have been ordered alphabetically by title, documents have been listed chronologically, and cards for his correspondence are viii arranged alphabetically by the surname of the recipients. Individual catalogue cards for "Lewisiana" and for graphic works housed in the Department of Rare Books have also been reproduced. Graphic works in the Andrew D. White Museum of Art are listed chronologically, by date of their composition, with a brief description of medium and dimensions. The manuscripts, documentary material, and correspondence of writers other than Lewis have been arranged in a calendar, alphabetically by author, with an inclusive dating of the material. Reference works utilized in the preparation of this catalogue include William K. Rose's Letters -of Wyndham Lewis (London: Methuen, 1963); Geoffrey Wagner's Wyndham Lewis,-- A Portrait ----of the Artist as Enemy (New Haven: Yale University Press, 1957); Walter Michells Wyndham Lewis, Paintings and- Drawings (London: Thame s & Hudson, 197 1); the special Wyndham Lewis numbers of Agenda (Vol. 7, no. 3 and Vol. 8, no. 1, 1969); and Canadian Literature, published by the University of British Columbia, 197 1.

  • Cecil Beaton (1904–80) Was One of the Great Creative Figures of the British Twentieth Century
    Access Guide Please return at the end of your visit We hope this guide supports your visit. Please speak to any member of staff for more information. VERSION 2 Map Entrance Contents TBC Introduction Cecil Beaton (1904–80) was one of the great creative figures of the British twentieth century. Chiefly known as a photographer of portraits and fashion, through his work for Vogue magazine from 1924 to 1979, he was also recognised as a significant war photographer. An illustrator and caricaturist, a writer and commentator on taste and manners, Beaton was a theatre designer and art director of world renown and an influential stylist of his own homes. This exhibition focuses on Beaton’s early years. Born in Hampstead to a then prosperous timber merchant, Ernest Beaton and his wife Esther (‘Etty’), Cecil was first given a camera in 1914, aged ten. His first subjects were his mother and his willing sisters, Nancy and Barbara (‘Baba’). His transformation from middle-class suburban schoolboy to dazzling society figure against the backdrop of the Roaring Twenties and the Age of Jazz revealed a social mobility barely thinkable before the First World War. Here, then, are the Bright Young Things who brought an extraordinary era vividly to life and in so doing, nurtured and refined a remarkable photographic talent. The strength of his singular vision is such that, when we think of the Bright Young Things, we think of them in Beaton’s costumes, through Beaton’s lens and as Beaton’s friends. For full details of all events please see the What’s On guide or npg.org.uk/events Friday 20 March, 19.00 Lecture ‘When I die I want to go to Vogue’: Cecil Beaton’s Most Enduring Patron with Robin Muir Curator Robin Muir looks at the Cecil Beaton’s long working relationship with Vogue.

It also looks at how Cunard’s collecting practices translate into an ‘aesthetic of assemblage’ in her work as an anthologist, and shows how the African sculpture section of her Negro anthology (1934) reflects the collecting cultures of early twentieth-century Europe.

National Portrait Gallery, London © Estate of Paul Tanqueray; The Bright Young Things at Wilsford by Cecil Beaton, 1927. © The Cecil Beaton Studio Archive. Cecil Beaton’s Bright Young Things National Portrait Gallery, London 12 March – 7 June 2020 Cecil Beaton’s portraits from a golden age are brought together for the first time in a major new exhibition at the National Portrait Gallery, London. Featuring 170 works, many of which are rarely exhibited, Cecil Beaton’s Bright Young Things explores the extravagant world of the glamorous and stylish ‘Bright Young Things’ of the twenties and thirties, seen through the eye of renowned British photographer Cecil Beaton. Through the prism of Beaton’s portraits the exhibition presents the leading cast, to many of whom he would become close, and who in these early years helped refine his remarkable photographic style - artists and friends Rex Whistler and Stephen Tennant, set and costume designer Oliver Messel, composer William Walton, modernist poets Iris Tree and Nancy Cunard, glamorous socialites Edwina Mountbatten and Diana Guinness (née Mitford), actresses and anglophiles Tallulah Bankhead and Anna May Wong, among many others. Brought to vivid life each of them has a story to tell. There are the slightly less well known too – style icons Paula Gellibrand, the Marquesa de Casa Maury and Baba, Princesse de Faucigny-Lucinge, the eccentric composer and aesthete Lord Berners, modernist poet Brian Howard, part model for Brideshead Revisited’s mannered ‘Anthony Blanche’, ballet dancer Tilly Losch and Dolly Wilde Oscar’s equally flamboyant niece.

  • 1 All Work, No Play … : Representations of Child Labour In
    All Work, No Play … : Representations of Child Labour in Films of the First World War Stella Hockenhull University of Wolverhampton During the First World War, even though cinema was still in its infancy, it was seen as a viable tool for propagandist purposes. Furthermore, despite the domination of battle scenes and fighting at the front, a number of Home Front films were also produced to encourage patriotism and to advertise the effort required by the populace to support the troops.1 Indeed, Home Front newsreels were seen by the Government as mobilising useful moral support through nationalism, and, notably, a number featured children in their campaign. However, unlike preceding imagery of childhood, particularly that which had dominated the work of film directors such as Cecil Hepworth (1874-1953), these films did not depict them as embodiments of innocence and in need of protection, nor were they sentimentalised or represented as victims.2 Instead, propaganda cinema of the First World War displayed infancy and youth in military style and as willing individuals ready to serve the nation; this was achieved by detailing their day to day activities in which they were seen as capable, and physically able to help with important tasks such as animal husbandry and food production. Indeed, depictions of children standing in line and operating in perfunctory fashion were habitually displayed, rather than engaged in play activities. and this chimed with the work of artists of the period, and contemporaneous and modernist art movements such as Vorticism.3 One such example, Even Children Help (1917), shows a group of schoolchildren working the land in an orderly and 1 mechanistic way, and Children Grow Vegetables (1914-18) is comprised of shots of disciplined adolescent gardeners, these children dedicated to their task, and demonstrating the correlation between food and survival.

  • Art Appreciation 11-07-19 Report. 1 – Anne Williams : Pere Borrell Del Caso
    Art Appreciation 11-07-19 Report. 1 – Anne Williams: Pere Borrell del Caso (1835 – 1910); ‘Escaping Criticism’ (1874); oil on canvas; location – Banco de Espana, Madrid. Anne gave a short biography of Borrell del Caso: a Catalan artist, the son of a carpenter, he got his artistic training at the renowned Escola de la Llotja, in Barcelona, working as a chest maker to pay for his classes. As a young man Borrell distanced himself from the Romanticism that dominated the education at the academy. He rejected the idealization and insincerity that, in his eyes, were so typical of Romantic art and chose to change to the novel style of Realism. He founded his own art academy, the Sociedad de Bellas Artes. Here, students were encouraged to work ‘en plein air’, a rare phenomenon in those days. The painting is in the style of trompe-l’oeil, which means ‘the eye is deceived’. This painting shows an ill-clothed boy who clambers out of a picture frame to enter the world outside it. The symbolism of the painting tells of the artist’s need to escape the confinement of traditional artistic styles. Comments about the painting included: the boy’s eyes portray that he is listening hard, and possibly is being startled; the ‘picture frame’ appears three-dimensional; the boy is grubby and there is realistic detail in the painting. 2 – Dianne Bullough: Ivan Lackovic-Croata (1932 – 2004); ‘Winter’, ‘Winter Landscapes’, ‘Zima’. Dianne began by giving a short biography: Ivan Lacković Croata was a Croatian painter. Born to a peasant family in the village of Batinske near Kalinovac, after completing his primary education, he worked as a labourer in fields and forests.
