POWER 1950 to 1990 Ian S McIntyre A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS THE UNIVERSITY OF EAST ANGLIA September 2008 2 Abstract Ian S McIntyre 2008 JUDGEMENT BY EYE The art collecting life of E J Power The thesis examines the pattern of art collecting of E J Power, the leading British patron of contemporary painting and sculpture in the period after the Second World War from 1950 to the 1970s. The dissertation draws attention to Power’s unusual method of collecting which was characterised by his buying of work in quantity, considering it in depth and at leisure in his own home, and only then deciding on what to keep or discard. Because of the auto-didactic nature of his education in contemporary art, Power acquired work from a wide cross section of artists and sculptors in order to interrogate the paintings in his own mind. He paid particular attention to the works of Nicolas de Stael, Jean Dubuffet, Asger Jorn, Sam Francis, Barnett Newman, Ellsworth Kelly, Francis Picabia, William Turnbull and Howard Hodgkin. Power strongly believed that to fully appreciate an artist’s development, it was necessary to acquire work from different stages of his career. The thesis investigates the reasons behind the important shifts made by Power from one group of artists to another and also examines how he kept an open mind about new creative ideas and remained at the cutting edge of art collecting into his old age. Power’s influence on the younger artists of the period and his support of public exhibitions of contemporary art are also discussed. New, previously unpublished, material from Power’s archives is used in the dissertation which also includes a DVD of taped interviews with artists and leading figures from the art world who talked about many aspects of Power’s personality and the range of his collection. The thesis demonstrates how Power influenced more than one generation of artists and how he made an important contribution towards the furthering of an appreciation of contemporary art among the general public. 3 Acknowledgements I would like to thank my supervisor, Dr Simon Dell, Head of the School of the World Art Studies and Museology, University of East Anglia, for his informed and helpful guidance over the two years of my research and the writing of this thesis. I would also like to thank the following people for their advice, information and assistance – Dr Margaret Garlake, Dr Alastair Grieve, Dr Sandy Heslop, Mr Derek Morris, Dr Robert Short, Sue Breakell the Tate Archivist, the staff of the Hyman Kreitman Research Centre, the Fondation Dubuffet, the Barnett Newman Foundation, and Mr Dave Lamb for his technical help. I have quoted extensively in this dissertation from a catalogue edited by Dr Jennifer Mundy of the Tate Gallery of a 1996 exhibition called Brancusi to Beuys, Works from the Ted Power Collection, which I found indispensable to my research. I would also thank all the people I interviewed about Ted Power, in particular Leslie Waddington and William Turnbull for their invaluable recollections, as well as my wife, Janet, and other members of the Power family for their uniquely personal memories. 4 Introduction The subject of this thesis is my late father-in-law, E. J. (Ted) Power who was the leading British collector of contemporary art in the period after the Second World War from 1950 to the 1970s. I decided to research Power’s collecting career for a number of reasons, not least because there has been very little written about him or about the extraordinarily wide range of his acquisitions. I knew Ted Power myself for 14 years and I am in the fortunate position of having access to Power’s own archive material and being able to discuss the man and his collecting with my wife and my brothers- in-law. I hope to show in this dissertation that a highly individual collector such as Power can influence more than one generation of artists and make a real contribution towards the furthering of an appreciation of contemporary art among the wider public. Furthermore, I believe that a detailed analysis of Power’s eclectic collection will give another perspective on the subject of post-war British art and its relationship with continental European and American painting and sculpture. One of the key factors in Power’s role as an art patron was that he did not come from an academic background and was therefore self-taught in many aspects of artistic endeavour. He had to develop his own eye – his own way of looking and assessing a work of art – and this in turn led to his unusual method of collecting in which he bought paintings in quantity, examined the work in depth and at leisure in his own home, and then made his own decision about what to keep or discard. This independence of mind was an important trait in Power’s character and in my opinion, accounts for his great success as an entrepreneur in business. The other point I would emphasise at this stage is that Power was always at the cutting edge in his own field of radio and television manufacturing and that was why he was always receptive later in life to the new ideas coming from the artists he admired. Power had appreciated the importance of good design from the early 1930s and the external styling of the radios his company manufactured were, to him, as important as the technical innovations for which they were famous. During and after the War, he was too busy to develop his latent interest in art and it was 1950 before his long-term involvement in design could be extended to other visual forms. The diversity of Power’s collection is one of its most striking features. Because he was educating himself about the various art movements of the 20 th century, Power acquired work from a very wide cross section of artists and sculptors. This dissertation will show how he purchased Irish, French, Belgian, Dutch, Spanish and Italian art as well as examples of British and American abstraction and Pop Art, among others. With his business background, Power was accustomed to buying in quantity and he continued this practice with works of art in a manner which was more American than British, but he sold only those paintings which no longer ‘spoke’ to him and then only after careful consideration. He accumulated an 5 extensive and remarkable collection, but this was known only to a few people connected to the art world, for Power was essentially a very modest man with no interest in self-aggrandizement and it was some years before he allowed his name to become known as a lender to public exhibitions. Although Power was Irish and loved a discussion or even a good argument, he was an exceptionally perceptive listener and readily accepted advice and comment from a small group of artist friends and professional dealers at all stages of his collecting life. One of his other great assets was his ability to relate to people much younger than himself and he assiduously visited artists’ studios and attended exhibition openings to meet them, continuing to do so when he was over ninety years of age. Above all, he kept an open mind and did not turn down new work on doctrinaire grounds. He remained intensely curious, always interrogating in his own mind the artist, the work and his own reactions to it. In this thesis, I want to discuss the overall pattern of Power’s collecting, in particular, the reasons for the important shifts from one group of artists to another. I will also consider the way he seemed to be ahead of the field in his purchasing of new work, often a year ahead of the first British exhibitions of artists such as Sam Francis, Asger Jorn, Ellsworth Kelly and R. B. Kitaj. Although he travelled regularly to Paris, it is surprising to note that Power only visited the United States once in his life and yet he was buying American art before the ground-breaking ‘Modern Art in the United States’ exhibition at the Tate Gallery in 1956. A further aspect I will be examining is Power’s belief that the only way to fully appreciate an artist’s development is to buy work from all the different stages of his oeuvre and this he did in the case of painters such as Jean Dubuffet and Francis Picabia as well as sculptors like William Turnbull and Barry Flanagan. Because of the lack of detailed information about Power and his collection, I decided to begin this thesis with a biography of the man himself and his previous career, and then to explore the extent of his collecting chronologically to show its development over the decades. I also thought it relevant to write a section about some of the other British collectors of contemporary art from the same period, to put Power in the wider context of art patronage.

  • Fractal Expressionism—Where Art Meets Science
    Santa Fe Institute. February 14, 2002 9:04 a.m. Taylor page 1 Fractal Expressionism—Where Art Meets Science Richard Taylor 1 INTRODUCTION If the Jackson Pollock story (1912–1956) hadn’t happened, Hollywood would have invented it any way! In a drunken, suicidal state on a stormy night in March 1952, the notorious Abstract Expressionist painter laid down the foundations of his masterpiece Blue Poles: Number 11, 1952 by rolling a large canvas across the oor of his windswept barn and dripping household paint from an old can with a wooden stick. The event represented the climax of a remarkable decade for Pollock, during which he generated a vast body of distinct art work commonly referred to as the “drip and splash” technique. In contrast to the broken lines painted by conventional brush contact with the canvas surface, Pollock poured a constant stream of paint onto his horizontal canvases to produce uniquely contin- uous trajectories. These deceptively simple acts fuelled unprecedented controversy and polarized public opinion around the world. Was this primitive painting style driven by raw genius or was he simply a drunk who mocked artistic traditions? Twenty years later, the Australian government rekindled the controversy by pur- chasing the painting for a spectacular two million (U.S.) dollars. In the history of Western art, only works by Rembrandt, Velazquez, and da Vinci had com- manded more “respect” in the art market. Today, Pollock’s brash and energetic works continue to grab attention, as witnessed by the success of the recent retro- spectives during 1998–1999 (at New York’s Museum of Modern Art and London’s Tate Gallery) where prices of forty million dollars were discussed for Blue Poles: Number 11, 1952.

  • Alberto Giacometti: a Biography Sylvie Felber
    Alberto Giacometti: A Biography Sylvie Felber Alberto Giacometti is born on October 10, 1901, in the village of Borgonovo near Stampa, in the valley of Bregaglia, Switzerland. He is the eldest of four children in a family with an artistic background. His mother, Annetta Stampa, comes from a local landed family, and his father, Giovanni Giacometti, is one of the leading exponents of Swiss Post-Impressionist painting. The well-known Swiss painter Cuno Amiet becomes his godfather. In this milieu, Giacometti’s interest in art is nurtured from an early age: in 1915 he completes his first oil painting, in his father’s studio, and just a year later he models portrait busts of his brothers.1 Giacometti soon realizes that he wants to become an artist. In 1919 he leaves his Protestant boarding school in Schiers, near Chur, and moves to Geneva to study fine art. In 1922 he goes to Paris, then the center of the art world, where he studies life drawing, as well as sculpture under Antoine Bourdelle, at the renowned Académie de la Grande Chaumière. He also pays frequent visits to the Louvre to sketch. In 1925 Giacometti has his first exhibition, at the Salon des Tuileries, with two works: a torso and a head of his brother Diego. In the same year, Diego follows his elder brother to Paris. He will model for Alberto for the rest of his life, and from 1929 on also acts as his assistant. In December 1926, Giacometti moves into a new studio at 46, rue Hippolyte-Maindron. The studio is cramped and humble, but he will work there to the last.

  • Eduardo Paolozzi's Psychological Atlas*
    Eduardo Paolozzi’s Psychological Atlas* JOHN-PAUL STONARD Eduardo Paolozzi compiled his collage book Psychological Atlas while living in Paris in 1949 and discovering, as he put it, the “relics of the prewar Dada and Surrealist movement.” Preserved as an archival item, Psychological Atlas is rarely seen; in a poor physical condition, it is kept together by yellowing scotch tape and desiccated glue. Its appearance approximates Paolozzi’s own definition of the modern relic as something “fortuitous and ephemeral, somewhat dusty, pathetic, and absurd, like the votive crutches and other macabre objects that the beneficia - ries of miraculous cures have left in a shrine like that of Lourdes.” 1 Psychological Atlas is clearly a homage to the remnants of Surrealism, made as Paolozzi was meeting such figures as Tristan Tzara and Alberto Giacometti, with the knowledge that the movement was drawing its last collective breath. 2 The psychology Paolozzi surveys in his collage book is that of popular imagery: robots, animals, landscapes, bodybuilders, politicians, ethnographic images, industrial architecture, film stars, and the whole assortment of sensa - tional or exotic material to be found in illustrated newspapers, from the Arbeiter Illustrierte Zeitung to Life magazine. A number of montages evoke Surrealist ethnographic assemblages, but the tone is modified by the inclusion of a collaged television set on the opening page and a color image of an American city a few pages further on. Scenarios created by cut-out figures past - ed onto strange settings evoke scenes of contemporary life, using familiar methods of Surrealist disjunction. Other tableaux are more bewildering, show - * This essay is derived from a paper given at the Contemporary Art Workshop at the University of Chicago, February 2010.

  • Networking Surrealism in the USA. Agents, Artists and the Market
    151 Toward a New “Human Consciousness”: The Exhibition “Adventures in Surrealist Painting During the Last Four Years” at the New School for Social Research in New York, March 1941 Caterina Caputo On January 6, 1941, the New School for Social Research Bulletin announced a series of forthcoming surrealist exhibitions and lectures (fig. 68): “Surrealist Painting: An Adventure into Human Consciousness; 4 sessions, alternate Wednesdays. Far more than other modern artists, the Surrea- lists have adventured in tapping the unconscious psychic world. The aim of these lectures is to follow their work as a psychological baro- meter registering the desire and impulses of the community. In a series of exhibitions contemporaneous with the lectures, recently imported original paintings are shown and discussed with a view to discovering underlying ideas and impulses. Drawings on the blackboard are also used, and covered slides of work unavailable for exhibition.”1 From January 22 to March 19, on the third floor of the New School for Social Research at 66 West Twelfth Street in New York City, six exhibitions were held presenting a total of thirty-six surrealist paintings, most of which had been recently brought over from Europe by the British surrealist painter Gordon Onslow Ford,2 who accompanied the shows with four lectures.3 The surrealist events, arranged by surrealists themselves with the help of the New School for Social Research, had 1 New School for Social Research Bulletin, no. 6 (1941), unpaginated. 2 For additional biographical details related to Gordon Onslow Ford, see Harvey L.
