The generation that went to war against the Nazis lost a great many of their buildings – their homes and workplaces, as well as their monuments, sculptures and works of art. They had to rebuild and reshape their England. They did a remarkable job. They rebuilt ravaged cities and towns, and they built new institutions. From the National Health Service to the Arts Council, they wanted access-for-all to fundamental aspects of modern human life. And part of their vision was to create new public spaces that would raise the spirits. The wave of public art that emerged has shaped the England we live in, and it has shaped us.

  • Lynn Chadwick out of the Shadows Unseen Sculpture of the 1960S
    LYNN CHADWICK OUT OF THE SHADOWS UNSEEN SCULPTURE OF THE 1960S 1 INTRODUCTION ince my childhood in Africa I have been fascinated and stimulated by Lynn SChadwick’s work. I was drawn both by the imagery and the tangible making process which for the first time enabled my child’s mind to respond to and connect with modern sculpture in a spontaneous way. I was moved by the strange animalistic figures and intrigued by the lines fanning across their surfaces. I could see that the lines were structural but also loved the way they appeared to energise the forms they described. I remember scrutinising photographs of Lynn’s sculptures in books and catalogues. Sometimes the same piece appeared in two books but illustrated from different angles which gave me a better understanding of how it was constructed. The connection in my mind was simple. I loved skeletons and bones of all kinds and morbidly collected dead animals that had dried out in the sun, the skin shrinking tightly over the bones beneath. These mummified remains were somehow more redolent of their struggle for life than if they were alive, furred and feathered and to me, Lynn’s sculpture was animated by an equal vivacity. His structures seemed a natural and logical way to make an object. Around me I could see other structures that had a similar economy of means; my grandmother’s wire egg basket, the tissue paper and bamboo kites I built and the pole and mud constructions of the African houses and granaries. This fascination gave me a deep empathy with Lynn’s working method and may eventually have contributed to the success of my relationship with him, casting his work for over twenty years.

  • ROBERT ADAMS (British, 1917-1984)
    ROBERT ADAMS (British, 1917-1984) “I am concerned with energy, a physical property inherent in metal, [and] in contrasts between linear forces and masses, between solid and open areas … the aim is stability and movement in one form.” (R. Adams, 1966, quoted in A. Grieve, 1992, pp. 109-111) Robert Adams was born in Northampton, England, in October 1917. He has been called “the neglected genius of post-war British sculpture” by critics. In 1937, Adams began attending evening classes in life drawing and painting at the Northampton School of Art. Some of Adam’s first-ever sculptures were also exhibited in London between 1942 and 1944 as part of a series of art shows for artists working in the Civil Defence, which Adams joined during the Second World War. He followed this with his first one-man exhibition at Gimpel Fils Gallery, London, in 1947, before starting a 10-year teaching career in 1949 at the Central School of Art and Design in London. It was during this time that Adams connected with a group of abstract painters – importantly Victor Pasmore, Adrian Heath and Kenneth and Mary Martin – finding a mutual interest in Constructivist aesthetics and in capturing movement. In 1948, Adams’ stylistic move towards abstraction was further developed when he visited Paris and seeing the sculpture of Pablo Picasso, Julio Gonzales, Constantine Brancusi and Henry Laurens. As such, Adams’ affiliation with his fellow English carvers, such as Henry Moore and Barbara Hepworth, extended only as far as an initial desire to carve in stone and wood. Unlike his contemporaries, Adams did not appear to show much interest in the exploration of the human form or its relationship to the landscape.

  • Exorcising the Fear British Sculpture from the 50S & 60S
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Exorcising the Fear British Sculpture from the 50s & 60s Private View: Tuesday 10 th January, 6 – 8pm 11 th January – 3 rd March 2012 Taking the sixtieth anniversary year of the XXVI Venice Biennale of 1952 as its starting point, Exorcising the Fear will explore a pivotal point in the history of British sculpture. Returning to the essay by Herbert Read which left an indelible mark on the history of art with the phrase ‘the geometry of fear’, the exhibition aims to recapture the excitement and vitality of the moment when eight young British sculptors – Robert Adams, Kenneth Armitage, Reg Butler, Geoffrey Clarke, Lynn Chadwick, Bernard Meadows, Eduardo Paolozzi and William Turnbull - burst onto an international scene and jump started a chain reaction that brought about a crucial sculptural renaissance in the history of British sculpture, the impact of which can still be felt today. Kenneth Armitage, Model for Krefeld Monument , 1956 Pangolin London are delighted to be able to show three rare works that are particularly closely related to those exhibited at the biennale (Lynn Chadwick’s Bull Frog , Reg Butler’s Young Girl and Geoffrey Clarke’s Man ) along with a superb collection of further works chosen for their direct relationship with those on display in Venice. The exhibition will include another rare Lynn Chadwick entitled Beast , which has not been seen in public since the 1950s. The work is over two metres high and made from welded iron and glass.
