4 January 2009 Tate Britain Teacher and Student Notes by Linda Bolton
11 SEPTEMBER 2008 – 4 JANUARY 2009 TATE BRITAIN TEACHER AND STUDENT NOTES BY LINDA BOLTON INTRODUCTION Francis Bacon (1909–92) was one of the most important painters of the twentieth century and one of the very few British artists with a strong international reputation. He was a maverick who rejected the dominant practice of the time, abstraction, in favour of a distinctive and disturbing realism. This major exhibition displays Bacon’s work from his first masterpiece to works made shortly before his death. He was born in 1909 in Dublin to Anglo-Irish parents; his father was a racehorse trainer and his mother a steel and coal heiress. Bacon was a sickly child, he suffered from asthma and was allergic to the dogs and horses kept by his father. His lively and gregarious mother showed little interest in her son’s early sketches. Bacon’s closest childhood confidante was the family nursemaid, Jessie Lightfoot. They developed an intense bond and she lived with him at intervals long into Bacon’s adulthood, remaining one of his closest companions throughout his life. It was a peripatetic childhood as his family moved frequently between England and Ireland. The frequent upheavals he experienced as a result of this were to induce in Bacon a sense of displacement which is often referenced in his work. Bacon loved dressing up. As a shy child, his effeminate manner upset his father, who apparently had Bacon horsewhipped by their Irish groom, and banished him from the family home after finding his son dressed in his mother’s underwear, admiring himself in front of a mirror. -

The shadow looks like a sculpture of a shadow rather than the absence of light whereas the figure simply dissolves into the field. Leave a Reply Cancel reply Your email address will not be published. Marina might be right, but that is the question about the prices at the art market. He travelled with his new lover Peter Lacey to Tangier. He soon broke his own rules and we witness examples of narrative and depictions of the dead, such as the never before exhibited Seated Figure , showing a profile of Dyer. But can a life self- described as chaos really be reduced to year time slots? If your familiarity with the work has been garnered through jpegs and printed catalogues, then there is a lot to re-learn about the grandeur, detail and materials such as sand, dust and aerosol applied with such tools as textured fabric of these painting up close.

ANTONIO SAURA'S MONSTRIFICATIONS: THE MONSTROUS BODY, MELANCHOLIA, AND THE MODERN SPANISH TRADITION BY FERNANDO HERRERO-MATOSES DISSERTATION Submitted as partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Art History in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2014 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Jonathan D. Fineberg, Chair Associate Professor Jordana Mendelson, New York University Assistant Professor Terri Weissman Associate Professor Brett A. Kaplan Associate Professor Elena L. Delgado Abstract This dissertation examines the monstrous body in the works of Antonio Saura Atares (1930-1998) as a means of exploring moments of cultural and political refashioning of the modern Spanish tradition during the second half of the twentieth century. In his work, Saura rendered figures in well-known Spanish paintings by El Greco, Velázquez, Goya and Picasso as monstrous bodies. Saura’s career-long gesture of deforming bodies in discontinuous thematic series across decades (what I called monstrifications) functioned as instances for artistic self-evaluation and cultural commentary. Rather than metaphorical self-portraits, Saura’s monstrous bodies allegorized the artistic and symbolic body of his artistic ancestry as a dismembered and melancholic corpus. In examining Saura’s monstrifications, this dissertation closely examines the reshaping of modern Spanish narrative under three different political periods: Franco’s dictatorship, political transition, and social democracy. By situating Saura’s works and texts within the context of Spanish recent political past, this dissertation aims to open conversations and cultural analyses about the individual interpretations made by artists through their politically informed appropriations of cultural traditions. As I argue, Saura’s monstrous bodies incarnated an allegorical and melancholic gaze upon the fragmentary and discontinuous corpus of Spanish artistic legacy as an always-retrieved yet never restored body. -

Grosvenor Gallery SADEQUAIN IN PARIS 1961–1967 5 November–14 November 2015 Syed Ahmed Sadequain Naqqash was arguably one of the most important South Asian artists of the 20th century. Sadequain was born in Amroha, today’s India, in 1930 to an educated North Indian Shia family, to which calligraphy was a highly valued skill. Following his education between Amroha and Agra and after a number of years working at various radio stations in Delhi and Karachi as a calligrapher- copyist, he began to dedicate more time to his artistic practices. In 1955 he exhibited a number of paintings at the residence of Prime Minister Huseyn Shaheed Suhrawardy, a liberal patron of the arts. Soon after this, he received a number of important governmental commissions for municipal murals, which led to a number of solo exhibitions in Pakistan. In 1960 Sadequain won the Pakistan National prize for painting, and was invited by the French Committee of the International Association of Plastic Arts to visit Paris. The following few years were to be some of the most important for the young artist in terms of his artistic development, and it was whilst in Paris that he began to achieve international critical acclaim. -

Bacon became a star although he died in ; however, this a bit unexpected sale that broke all the records put Francis Bacon at the list of the most popular contemporary artists of our era. This sale raised a lot of controversies though. How could you possibly ever see the painting without seeing the money in front? Marina might be right, but that is the question about the prices at the art market. Here, we Francis Bacon: Five Decades to focus first on some famous Francis Bacon paintings regardless of the price they were sold forand on his quite unique style and approach. In the beginnings of the s, Bacon met George Dyer Francis Bacon: Five Decades whom he had fallen in love. Infatuated, Bacon chose Dyer as a recurrent subject of his works in the s some of the most notable ones. The death of his lover led to a different approach by Bacon, which would eventually lead to a more reductive artistic approach, which culminated during the s. But, in this article, we are not focusing on Francis Bacon's unique art, and his life, Francis Bacon: Five Decades on his paintings. -
A-Level History of Art Mark Scheme Unit 03
A-LEVEL History of Art HART3 - Investigation and Interpretation (1) Mark scheme 2250 June 2015 Version 1.0 Final Mark schemes are prepared by the Lead Assessment Writer and considered, together with the relevant questions, by a panel of subject teachers. This mark scheme includes any amendments made at the standardisation events which all associates participate in and is the scheme which was used by them in this examination. The standardisation process ensures that the mark scheme covers the students’ responses to questions and that every associate understands and applies it in the same correct way. As preparation for standardisation each associate analyses a number of students’ scripts. Alternative answers not already covered by the mark scheme are discussed and legislated for. If, after the standardisation process, associates encounter unusual answers which have not been raised they are required to refer these to the Lead Assessment Writer. It must be stressed that a mark scheme is a working document, in many cases further developed and expanded on the basis of students’ reactions to a particular paper. Assumptions about future mark schemes on the basis of one year’s document should be avoided; whilst the guiding principles of assessment remain constant, details will change, depending on the content of a particular examination paper.
