  • T Make Art Films, I Make People Films... Portraits Rather Than Profiles'
    CV 'I tell people that I don't make art films, I make people films... portraits rather than profiles' Jake Auerbach is a British film maker specialising in documentary subjects. Though his films have ranged across the cultural spectrum he is best known for his portraits of artists both contemporary and historical. “Auerbach is regarded as a maverick in the world of documentary, backing his own judgment rather than constructing films to suit broadcasters; he works, where possible, with the artists themselves, without the intervention of interpreters.” Jake was born in Sheffield, Yorkshire and educated in North London; he then joined the Economist newspaper. After two years he left to join the Henson Organisation, working on The Muppet Show and Dark Crystal… also spending a brief time as a puppeteer, most notably on Return of the Jedi as Jabba the Hutt’s cheek puff. Auerbach then worked in the USA on the film Haunted before returning to the UK and the editing department of the BBC. After a year in the cutting rooms working on strands such as Arena, Omnibus and Horizon he began to direct. There followed films on rock music, photography, Voodoo, football and major documentaries about London, the art market and filmed portraits of artists. In 1992 he left the BBC to become an independent. He now runs Jake Auerbach Films Ltd. - http://www.jakeauerbachfilms.com/ The company’s films include portraits of Lucian Freud, Walter Sickert, Allen Jones, Rodin, R. B. Kitaj, Paula Rego and the feature length Last Art Film and have been broadcast and shown in museums around the world… Seasons of his work have been shown at Abbot Hall, Pallant House and The National Portrait Gallery in London.

Kitaj also received a number of honorary doctorates and awards including the Golden Lion for Painting at the XLVI Venice Biennale (1995). He was inducted into the American Academy of Arts and Letters (1982) and the Royal Academy of Arts (1985).

  • Arts Council of England
    Arts Council of England Against the Grain - The Sapperton Group of Craftsmen Designers Dir Margaret Dickinson Cast Sheila Allen, Richard Campbell, Robin Canter, Elizabeth Routier, Clare Shanks 1983 / 52 min DOCUMENTARY The story of three architects, Ernest Gimson, Ernest Barnsley and Sidney Barnsley, who settled in Sapperton in the Cotswolds in the early 1890's. Inspired by the ideas of William Morris, they decided to leave the city for the countryside, hoping to find the setting for "a real revival of building and the handicrafts, free from commercialism and the monotony of machine production". They built and restored houses in local stone and designed and made simple furniture, and encouraged a modest revival of village life, but still found that their work depended initially on support from industrial concerns in Leicester and Birmingham. Includes interviews with relatives and friends of the Sapperton Group, among them Edward Barnsley, Donald Gimson, Miss Nancy Jewson and Major A. Biddulph. Alfred Wallis - Artist and Mariner Dir Christopher Mason 1973 / 23 min BIOPIC DOCUMENTARY Consists of reminiscences about the painter by surviving friends and relatives from his native town of St Ives, counterpointed by visuals showing the paintings themselves and the real land and seascapes that inspired them. Art in Revolution Dir Lutz Becker Cast Chris Stanley 1972 / 50 min DOCUMENTARY Follows the political situation in the USSR from 1917 to the death of Lenin, tracing the pattern of Soviet creativity during those years by linking the art of the time to the historical events from which it grew, and which it frequently sought both to depict and to stimulate.

  • Frank Auerbach: Selected Works, 1978–2016 October 31, 2020 – February 20, 2021
    Frank Auerbach: Selected Works, 1978–2016 October 31, 2020 – February 20, 2021 Virtual Events: Screening of FRANK (Nov. 15-16) and Panel Discussion (Nov. 17 at 1pm), more details below I think all good paintings look as though the painting has escaped from the thicket of prepared positions and has entered some sort of freedom where it exists on its own, and by its own laws, and inexplicably has got free of all possible explanations. – Frank Auerbach On October 31, Luhring Augustine Chelsea will debut a solo exhibition of Frank Auerbach’s paintings and drawings that will celebrate the mature career of a singular artist. Spanning from the late 1970s to recent works, the selection of his portraits and landscapes on view will underscore Auerbach’s great achievements in painting in the post-war era. The first show of his work in New York of this scale since 2006, the exhibition will be on view through December 19 and accompanied by a fully illustrated catalogue. Auerbach’s work exists outside of any specific period or style. Employing an energetic impasto technique to render his subjects, he creates figurative paintings through an intensive daily regimen. The exhibition highlights portraits of a group of his devoted sitters, some of whom he has been painting since the 1970s and still pose for him regularly today. The paintings are often the result of months of labor: at the end of a day of work, he will frequently scrape down the entire surface of the piece in order to start anew in his next attempt; each rejected endeavor a pursuit toward the final expression.

  • Nineteenth-Century Aesthetics of Murder
    Nineteenth-Century Aesthetics of Murder: Jack the Ripper to Dorian Gray A dissertation submitted to the Committee on Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Faculty of Arts and Science Trent University Peterborough, Ontario, Canada © Copyright by Anhiti Patnaik 2018 Cultural Studies Ph.D. Graduate Program September 2018 For my father; the poetical policeman ABSTRACT Nineteenth-Century Aesthetics of Murder: Jack the Ripper to Dorian Gray Anhiti Patnaik This dissertation examines how sex crime and serial killing became a legitimate subject of aesthetic representation and mass consumption in the nineteenth century. It also probes into the ethical implications of deriving pleasure from consuming such graphic representations of violence. Taking off from Jack the Ripper and the iconic Whitechapel murders of 1888, it argues that a new cultural paradigm – the aesthetics of murder – was invented in England and France. To study the ‘aesthetics of murder’ as countless influential critics have done is not to question whether an act of murder itself possesses beautiful or sublime qualities. Rather, it is to determine precisely how a topic as evil and abject as murder is made beautiful in a work of art. It also questions what is at stake ethically for the reader or spectator who bears witness to such incommensurable violence. In three chapters, this dissertation delves into three important tropes – the murderer, corpse, and witness – through which this aesthetics of murder is analyzed. By examining a wide intersection of visual, literary, and cultural texts from the English and French tradition, it ultimately seeks to effect a rapprochement between nineteenth-century ethics and aesthetics.
