It combines Eastside Projects’ knowledge with information from texts written for Birmingham Show and suggestions sent via social media. Inevitably it is incomplete. We will add to this document during the exhibition so by 11 April, when the exhibition ends, the list you see here will be far more comprehensive than it is now. If there are people or projects you think should be included please speak to a member of the Eastside Projects team or email [email protected] and we will add them in. .

  • Jesse Bruton 6 July – 11 September 2016
    Ikon Gallery, 1 Oozells Square, Brindleyplace, Birmingham B1 2HS 0121 248 0708 / www.ikon-gallery.org Open Tuesday-Sunday, 11am-5pm / free entry Jesse Bruton 6 July – 11 September 2016 Jesse Bruton, Devil's Bowl (c.1965). Oil on canvas. Image courtesy of the artist. Jesse Bruton is one of the founding artists of Ikon. This exhibition (6 July – 11 September 2016) tells the fascinating story of his artistic development, starting in the 1950s and ending in 1972 when Bruton abandoned painting for painting conservation. Having studied at the College of Art in Birmingham, Bruton was a lecturer there during the early 1960s, following a scholarship year in Spain and a stint of National Service. He went on to teach at the Bath Academy of Art, Corsham, 1966-69. He exhibited in a number of group shows in Birmingham, especially at the Royal Birmingham Society of Artists, and had a solo exhibition at Ikon shortly after the gallery opened to the public in 1965, and again in 1967. Like many of his contemporaries, Bruton developed an artistic proposition inspired by landscape. Many of his early paintings were of the Welsh mountains and the Pembrokeshire coast. Alive to the aesthetic possibilities of places he visited, he made vivid painterly translations based on a stringent palette of black and white. They reflected his particular interest “in the way things worked, things like valleys, rock formations and rivers ...” “I wasn’t particularly interested in colour. I wanted to limit the formal language I was using – to work tonally gradating from black to white, leaching out the medium from the paint in order to enhance a variety of textures.

  • Donald Rodney (1961-1998) Self-Portrait ‘Black Men Public Enemy’ 1990
    Donald Rodney (1961-1998) Self-Portrait ‘Black Men Public Enemy’ 1990 Medium: Lightboxes with Duratran prints Size: 5 parts, total, 190.5 x 121.9cm Collection: Arts Council ACC7/1990 1. Art historical terms and concepts Subject Matter Traditionally portraits depicted named individuals for purposes of commemoration and/or propaganda. In the past black figures were rarely portrayed in Western art unless within group portraits where they were often used as a visual and social foil to the main subject. Rodney adopted the portrait to explore issues around black masculine identity - in this case the stereotype of young black men as a ‘public enemy’. The title ‘Black Men Public Enemy’ comes from the writings of cultural theorist Stuart Hall about media representations of young black men as an ‘icon of danger’, a metaphor for all the ills of society. Rodney said of this Art History in Schools CIO | Registered Charity No. 1164651 | www.arthistoryinschools.org.uk work: “I’ve been working for some time on a series…about a black male image, both in the media and black self-perception. I wanted to make a self-portrait [though] I didn’t want to produce a picture with an image of myself in it. It would be far too heroic considering the subject matter. I wanted generic black men, a group of faces that represented in a stereotypical way black man as ‘the other’, a black man as the enemy within the body politic” (1991). Rodney is asking the question: ‘Is this what people see when they see me?’ He has created a kind of ‘everyman’ for every black man, a heterogeneous identity.

  • Bernard Fleetwood-Walker (1893-1965) By
    The Social, Political and Economic Determinants of a Modern Portrait Artist: Bernard Fleetwood-Walker (1893-1965) by MARIE CONSIDINE A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of History of Art College of Arts and Law The University of Birmingham April 2012 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

ABSTRACT As the first major study of the portrait artist Bernard Fleetwood-Walker (1893- 1965), this thesis locates the artist in his social, political and economic context, arguing that his portraiture can be seen as an exemplar of modernity. The portraits are shown to be responses to modern life, revealed not in formally avant- garde depictions, but in the subject-matter. Industrial growth, the increasing population, expanding suburbs, and a renewed interest in the outdoor life and popular entertainment are reflected in Fleetwood-Walker’s artistic output. The role played by exhibition culture in the creation of the portraits is analysed: developing retail theory affected gallery design and exhibition layout and in turn impacted on the size, subject matter and style of Fleetwood-Walker’s portraits.

  • Phillips, M. the Case of the Absent Artist. a Body Of
    The Case of the Absent Artist A Body of Evidence of Mike Phillips 1 The Case for the Defence. On the seventeenth of April 1962 Perry Mason, the legendary defence attorney, faced one of his most pataphysical cases. ‘The Case of the Absent Artist’ (CBS 1962) is an account of a transmogrification that resonates through digital arts practice to this day. The author of the popular comic strip ‘Zingy’, Gabe Philips, transforms from a cartoon- ist to a ‘serious’ painter, bifurcating in the process to become Otto Gervaert. This transformation is only completed when he (both Philips and Gervaert) is/are murdered, the artist(s) remains as a body of evi- dence and a body of work. Mason is faced with the absence left by the transformation of the artist; the absent artist (or artists) defines a new space, not emptiness but a place resonant with potential. The following is a re-investigation of this resonant place left by the artist – Philips/Gervaert and how this transformation of the artist is be- ing enacted with increasing frequency. This manifestation of trans- formation, duality and disappearance is symptomatic of a technologi- cal performativity evident in a series of projects and relationships that have informed the development of frameworks, articulated below as ‘Operating Systems’. As forensic tools these Operating Systems are ‘instruments’ or provocative prototypes that enhance our understand- ing of the world and our impact on it. In the case of the absent artist they probe the space that once held the artist to build a new body of evidence. This body of evidence itself builds on an evolutionary thread that has run through the collaborative work of i-DAT.org.

  • Surrealism and Psychoanalysis in the Work of Grace Pailthorpe and Reuben Mednikoff
    Surrealism and Psychoanalysis in the work of Grace Pailthorpe and Reuben Mednikoff: 1935-1940 Lee Ann Montanaro Ph.D. History of Art The University of Edinburgh 2010 Declaration I hereby declare that this thesis is my own work and has not been submitted for any other degree or professional qualification except as specified. ABSTRACT The story of the collaboration between the psychoanalyst Dr Grace Pailthorpe and the artist Reuben Mednikoff is indeed an extraordinary one. The aim of this thesis is to throw light upon their joint research project between 1935, when they first met, and 1940, when they were expelled from the British Surrealist group with which they had been closely involved since its official launch in 1936. The project that Pailthorpe and Mednikoff plunged into just days after they first met in February 1935 focused on how art could be used as a way of curing mental problems. Paintings and drawings produced ‘automatically’ were used as a means to bring memories to a conscious level. Many personal tensions, obsessions and fears that had lain dormant and repressed were released and detailed commentaries and explanations followed every work they produced in order for the exercise to be fully therapeutic. The aim was to externalise the unconscious and reintegrate it with the conscious. Despite the fact that Pailthorpe’s work was hailed as ‘the best and most truly Surrealist’ by the leader of the Surrealist movement, André Breton, at the 1936 International Surrealist exhibition in London, which brought the movement to Britain, the couple were expelled from the British Surrealist group just four years later and moved to America into relative obscurity.

  • Download the Conference Program
    A NOTE FROM THE HOST COMMITTEE For four days in November, Pasadena will serve as MSA’s base of operations. (We understand there’s some minor affair planned for the city on New Year’s Day, but we’re sure it pales in comparison.) Welcome to the joys of Southern California in the fall! None of this would have been possible without the generous help of our local collaborators in and around this lovely city, including the staffs at the Westin Pasadena and the Huntington Library, Art Collections, and Botanical Gardens. Our efforts have been guided along the way by the MSA Board. We’re particularly indebted to Treasurer Gayle Rogers, Program Committee Chair Lisi Schoenbach, and MSA President Stephen Ross. The seasoned advice from last year’s organizer, Carrie Preston, helped keep it all in perspective and Alex Christie, web-master extraordinaire, agreed once again to manage the medium for the MSA message (gratis). MSA 18 would never have happened without the help of our fearless assistant, April Anderson, the one who kept us on track so that fun could be had by all. So, here’s to the fun, however you define it, and to making MSA 18 a “conference to remember.” Kevin Dettmar & Eric Bulson, Yr Obt. Servants 1 A Message from the MSA President For this year’s conference we have taken special efforts to introduce streams within the program that are aimed at more fully integrating interdisciplinary approaches, and in line with the conference theme. “Dream Factories” focuses on topics such as surrealism, psychoanalysis, fashion, architecture, cinema and design; “California and the Cultures of Modernism” considers linguistic, cultural, and racial diversity.
