In the early 1940s, Cobb served as 1st Lieutenant in the Atlantic convoys. From 1943-45, he commanded MTBs, working in the North Sea. A great lover of the sea, Cobb lived on his yacht White Heather, which was normally based at Brockenhurst in Hampshire. After the war David Cobb came to Newlyn's old harbour with his wife Jean. She was pregnant and DW's grandmother Mrs Mary Williams of Fore Street (wife of retired fisherman and boat owner William Henry Williams) was concerned. She offered them the use of a cottage adjoining her home and the couple lived there for a time at the birth of their child. Cobb began his painting career at Newlyn and then worked in the Sussex village of Itchenor (where he lived for some years) until he moved to live near Brockenhurst in the New Forest in the 1950s. He later became President of the Royal Society of Marine Artists and did some magnificent paintings of ships and the sea. Both David and Jean are now dead. He did not return to the village - but there are a few of his works done at this time in the area. Jean died in 2008.Cobb died

    Eileen Cooper: Personal Space 3–5 Swallow Street London W1B 4DE 020 7434 4319 huxleyparlour.com Cover image: Sisters, 2019 Eileen Cooper: Personal Space Introduction I am very pleased to introduce our first catalogue of paintings by Eileen Cooper RA, which contains a completely new body of work produced especially for our first exhibition together. It is a remarkable group of pictures that nods to her earliest years as a painter, while also continuing to develop the themes of identity and womanhood that she has explored throughout her career. The exhibition’s particular theme of reflective, personal space is one that seems entirely appropriate to Cooper, whose studio itself is a domestic one, set in a light filled room above the convivial family kitchen in her Brockley home. Here in this high ceilinged, paint splattered sanctuary Cooper quietly makes her pictures, bathed in the rays that flood through the tall sash windows. For many years Cooper worked alone there with her imagination, but more recently she has re-welcomed models – which has given birth to a more immediate intimacy. As one of the country’s most influential female Royal Academicians, Cooper has been a force in the British art world for many years, most recently as a much-loved Keeper of the Royal Academy Schools. In seeking models for the previous project to ours, Cooper found herself welcoming a long queue of former students and their artistic brethren, which is testimony to the esteem and friendship in which she is held. Like them, I have adored getting to know and being around Cooper, whose warmth, and energetic approach to her life and work makes for an intoxicating environment.

Poetic Anatomy of the Numinous Creative Passages into the Self as Beloved by PARTOU ZIA A thesis submitted to the University of Plymouth in partial fulfilment for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of Research Falmouth College of Arts 2001 2 ABSTRACT PARTOU ZIA Poetic Anatomy of the Numinous Creative Passages into the Self as Beloved This research is shaped by the actual experience of practice: as painter and writer. My preoccupation is with the nodal moment when conscious awareness is suspended, and both the corporal and psychic involvement in realising the work almost transport one to another zone of effectiveness. This zone, which I name as the poetic zone, is where the numinous enters the ordinary. The investigation for a space/place/moment that lies beyond the logic of acceptable discourse can help initiate and give shape to a new vocabulary - visual or literary. By orchestrating a methodology, which functions on several layers, I have endeavoured to create a synthesis between painting and writing.

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.

  • KATE WALTERS Arusha Gallery | [email protected] |
    KATE WALTERS Arusha Gallery | [email protected] | www.katewalters.co.uk BIOGRAPHY Viewing Walters's totemic figures, so delicately rendered in Rorschach-esque watercolour, for the first time, is as though peering into the very cycles of life and death. These paintings show both an abstract interest and material contact between the primordial and the universal -- a suggested communion with that same spirit who first cast images on those low-lit caves in Lascaux. Indeed, like them, it is not so much figure Walters's works seek to represent: her preoccupation is rather with movement, with spirit and sensation, with being itself. Stark patches of canvas invite the viewer to configure the beasts and burdens of Walters's Cornwall in a kind of prehistoric vocabulary. Her paintings oscillate between scenes of the hunt and the weald, but also the mother in the home and the hallowed grounds that provide their context. Theirs is Cornish sand and soil, of that place's magicks and phantasms, in its fables and folksongs, in the very stains of its birth and its struggle. Joy, creation, labour and power, the gods and a truth caught between the seats of the physician and the psychoanalyst are the murky zone of these paintings and all permeate both execution and concept.

  • The World As Yet Unseen Women Artists in Conversation with Partou Zia
    The World As Yet Unseen Women Artists in Conversation with Partou Zia Falmouth Art Gallery 6 April – 15 June 2019 6 April – 15 June 2019 Gillian Ayres, Wilhelmina Barns-Graham, Sandra Blow, Eileen Cooper, Tacita Dean, Penny Florence, Naomi Frears, Barbara Hepworth, Rose Hilton, Lubaina Himid, Winifred Nicholson, Aimé e Parrott, Bridget Riley, Nina Royle, Veronica Ryan, Devlin Shea, Lucy Stein and Kate Walters, Partou Zia. This exhibition reveals a world both intimate and outward looking seen through the eyes of eminent women artists, based in or connected to, Cornwall. At the centre are the paintings and poetry of the artist and writer Partou Zia (1958-2008) who was born in Iran but came to England in 1970, settling in Newlyn in 1993. Partou sadly passed away at the height of her artistic career. In 2003, she was the first recipient of the Porthmeor Studio residency awarded by Tate St Ives in collaboration with the Borlase Smart and John Wells Trust. Her residency culminated in an exhibition at Tate St Ives entitled Entering the Visionary Zone. The artist herself has been described as a ‘true visionary’ . Falmouth Art Gallery in collaboration with curators Dr Penny Florence, Professor Emerita, The Slade School of Fine Art, UCL and Clare Cooper of Art First, London, have arranged this exhibition to celebrate the gallery’s pleasure in accepting a powerful self portrait by Partou Zia on long term loan. Recalling the 1996 exhibition staged by the then curator, Catherine Wallace, called Women Artists in Cornwall 1880 – 1940, Henrietta Boex the current Director, suggested a sequel to feature women artists in Cornwall post 1940.

  • Partou PR 2013
    PARTOU ZIA Portraits Beyond Self The Late Works 9 January – 23 February 2013 Like a poem, a painting is a festival, a holiday. A painting is a pause that celebrates or makes a place for Remembrance. Memory in itself cannot be transforming or transfiguring. The act of poetic alchemy changes one thing - the real experience - into another thing, a new or unknown thing. It is the imagination that acts as the director of this Ceremony of Remembrance… For me that is how painting proceeds: slow, doubtful, strange to the mind's eye, and ever dictatorial in its demands that I remain alert to the sudden, and the not yet known. – Partou Zia 2005 In the five years following her residency as the first recipient of Tate St Ives’ pioneering programme at the historic Porthmeor Studios in 2003, Partou Zia’s painting flourished into a new, expressive phase of maturity. Entering the Visionary Zone was a prescient title for the exhibition and its accompanying catalogue, which followed, at Tate. Nobody could have guessed however that within two years her exuberant life of writing, painting and reading would have to channel itself into a narrow passage of time, intense in its dedication, where every moment mattered as she fought to survive a life-threatening illness. An innate storyteller, Partou evolved a personal mythology focusing on an astonishingly vivid series of self-portrait paintings. Set in luminous, shimmering landscapes, the predominant presence has an increasingly spiritual quality, suffusing the many guises in which she depicts herself with an otherworldly sensibility. References to Italian Renaissance artists such as Andrea Mantegna, the Bellinis and Titian, enrich the late paintings (My Flag 2008), together with the abiding influence of William Blake, whose archives she studied during her Tate residency.
