  • Newsletter Jan 2019
    Ipswich Art Society Registered charity no. 219257 Issue 73 www.ipswich-art-society.org.uk January 2019 newsletter It is sad to relate that we have lost two much loved and respected long standing members of the Society during this last year: Edwin Barritt and Anne Paterson Wallace. You will see this reflected in the affectionate Obituaries. The Winter Talk Series is moving to the Spring and we are experimenting with moving them to the afternoon rather than the evening. Some of the talks last year were more scantily attended than in the past and the committee conjectured that this may be to do with having to venture out on dark winter evenings. So, as a trial this year we are moving later in the year - to what we hope will be more clement weather - and to the afternoon, to see if that might widen the appeal to our membership and the public. We are just holding two this year to see how the experiment works and we have two excellent speakers. See Spring Talks for details. The 2018 Annual Open Exhibition at the Ipswich Art Gallery was a great success as ever. As reported in the last Newsletter we had a larger than ever volume of submissions, which is excellent news. Anticipating a similar response this year we will be making a couple of adjustments. The first is the selection process, which will be amended to help include more works and reduce the number of disappointments. The second concerns the the framing and fixings. We will not be able to handle the volume of works if such a large proportion of works continue to have the wrong fixings.

  • Britain in the World 1860–Now
    yale center for british art Britain in the World 1860–now Second-floor galleries Rebecca Salter, born 1955, British K37 1996, mixed media on canvas The work of Rebecca Salter draws on a variety of artistic styles, media, and cultural traditions. Her distinctive approach was shaped primarily by the six years she spent in Kyoto, Japan, in the early 1980s, where she studied ceramics. She returned to her native London with a commitment to two-dimensional art and a particular interest in Japanese printmaking techniques and the subtle textures and surfaces of Japanese papers. In the late 1980s, however, she also began to make regular visits to the Lake District in northern England, taking inspiration from the austere landscape and ever-shifting weather conditions. Working within a tight tonal range and rarely letting one part of the canvas speak louder than any other, Salter’s paintings are nonetheless quietly compelling: a suitable match for the architecture of Louis Kahn (designer of the Yale Center for British Art), in whose memory this painting was purchased. Friends of British Art Fund and Gift of Jules David Prown, MAH 1971, in memory of Louis I. Kahn, B2011.8 Sandra Blow, 1925–2006, British Red Circle 1960, mixed media on board Sandra Blow emerged in the 1950s as one of the most innovative figures in British abstract art. Blow built her reputation as an independent and pioneering force despite making and keeping a loose connection to the modernists at St. Ives, especially Barbara Hepworth, Ben Nicholson, and Patrick Heron. Red Circle’s vivid band of color encircling concentric black rings on a monochrome field exemplifies her bold abstraction, which nevertheless references the natural world and organic forms.

  • National Portrait Gallery Unveils New Portrait of Andy Murray by Maggi Hambling
    News Release Strictly Embargoed Until 10.00am on Thursday 12 March 2020 National Portrait Gallery Unveils New Portrait of Andy Murray by Maggi Hambling L-R Andy Murray, b.1987 by Maggi Hambling, 2019. Oil on canvas, 1524 x 1219mm © Maggi Hambling; Andy Murray and Maggi Hambling with the new portrait. Photograph © David Parry and National Portrait Gallery The National Portrait Gallery, London has unveiled a new portrait of Olympian and Wimbledon Champion, Andy Murray by Maggi Hambling. The multi-figured portrait will join the Gallery’s Collection, accompanied by four preparatory charcoal drawings from life completed in the artist’s studio in September last year. The painting and two of the drawings are now on public display in the Gallery until 3 May 2020. Andy Murray has for many years been a hero for Maggi Hambling and in early 2019 she discovered that he was interested in her work. Following Murray’s first visit to the artist's studio in London, the two became friends and Hambling invited him to sit for a portrait. On the morning of 9 September 2019, Murray posed for a series of drawings wearing his Wimbledon whites and the painting then evolved. Following its display at the National Portrait Gallery in London the work will travel to Scotland, where it will go on display at the Scottish National Portrait Gallery. L-R: Andy Murray with his portrait by Maggi Hambling; Maggi Hambling with her portrait of Andy Murray. Photographs © David Parry and National Portrait Gallery Andy Murray said: “Over the last few years I’ve become more interested in art and Maggi is one of my favourite artists, so I was more than happy to sit for a portrait – the first time I’ve done it.

As well as adjusting to unprecedented change, we continue to develop and innovate, as a group of four gal- leries linked together within a single organisation. • One exciting area of growth has been Tate Online – tate.org.uk. Now the UK’s most popular art website, it has won two BAFTAs for online content and for innovation over the last two years. In a move that reflects this development, the full Tate Biennial Report is this year published online at tate.org.uk/tatereport. This printed publication presents a summary of a remarkable two years. • A highlight of the last biennium was the launch of the new Tate Boat in May 2003. Shuttling visitors along the Thames between Tate Britain and Tate Modern, it is a reminder of how important connections have been in defining Tate’s success. • Tate is a British institution with an international outlook, and two appointments from Europe – of Vicente Todolí as Director of Tate Modern in April 2003 and of Jan Debbaut as Director of Collection in September 2003 – are enabling us to develop our links abroad, bringing fresh perspectives to our programme.
