  • Politics of Engagement Or Engagement with Politics?
    1 POLITICS OF ENGAGEMENT OR ENGAGEMENT WITH POLITICS? I am not sure whether it is life in these times or my time of life that makes me pose questions in this essay, rather than give answers. Do contemporary artist’s engage with politics in any meaningful way in Wales or anywhere else? Or does the practice of art in itself become a form of political engagement? In different historical periods, artists have been engaged or disengaged with politics, but in many ways, the often un-deliberate act of making art is a political and social statement in itself, in Wales even more so. Until recently, it made little economic sense to be an artist based in Wales. To live and work here is therefore a political decision which has ramifications; specific cultural, economic and political factors influence the artist’s work. We clearly see an engagement with social conditions in art from the 1930’s onwards, in the work of Evan Walters for example, see his magnificent red breasted “The Communist” of 1932 orating to a crowd. Post war, art in Wales could be praised for it’s avoidance of the international trends that were infiltrating into the British Isles, and for the emergence of a particular Welsh painting that became known as “Welsh Environmentalism”.i On the other hand the missionary zeal of the 56 Group must be aplauded for bringing a vigorous Modernism to Wales. It is post-Modern that Wales’s artists really ‘engage’ directly with politics. Artist’s like Paul Peter Piech, whose poster prints dealt with social politics, and Ogwyn Davies, who’s art consistently raises the issues of Welsh nationalismii, or the implied socialist message in the work of Jack Crabtree are examples.

  • Working Paper Series Paper 38
    Working Paper Series Paper 38 Art, Wales, Discourse and Devolution William Housley June, 2003 ISBN 1 872330 89 4 1 ABSTRACT This paper reports on a study carried out on art and devolution in Wales. It explores practitioners' understandings of visual art in Wales and the notion of Welsh art as national parameters that are both recognised and contested. The paper analyses examples of artistic narrative as a means of describing the character of these understandings and the various discourses utilised by artists in negotiating the relationship between the creative self and wider social, cultural and national boundaries. The paper argues that recent developments in Wales and the attempts to construct a national visual story overlook the sociological reality of contestation and alternate understandings circulating within the art scene in Wales. However, it also acknowledges that homogenised fictions are inevitable features of national social/cultural forms that have been marginalised. To this extent the paper explores the narrative of the creative self in relation to wider discourses of nation in terms of a case study that has resonance with the study of culture, marginalised collective experience and national renewal and re-invigoration and cultural modernization in Wales, the UK and beyond. Key Words: Art, Wales, Narrative, Culture, Identity, Devolution, Voice 2 Wales is a small country that is recognised as a distinct constituent nation of the United Kingdom. It is characterised by a number of differences that include the existence of the Welsh language, unique national institutions (e.g. the Welsh Language Television Channel[s] S4C, the University of Wales, National Museum and Gallery and specific national cultural events).

  • YCBA Graduate Student Symposium (New Haven, 5 Apr 14)
    YCBA Graduate Student Symposium (New Haven, 5 Apr 14) New Haven, Connecticut, Apr 05, 2014 Deadline: Jan 22, 2014 Lars Kokkonen, New Haven, CT Call for Papers Wales/Iâl/Yale - Graduate Student Symposium Saturday, April 5, 2014 Yale Center for British Art, New Haven, Connecticut This one-day graduate student symposium considers the visual arts in Wales. For centuries, Wales has been an integral and yet distinct part of the United Kingdom. Its history, language, and landscape have inspired artists of all kinds–from painters, sculptors, and architects to musicians, dancers, and poets. Yale University itself has deep and enduring ties to the country. Founded in 1701 as the Collegiate School, it was renamed Yale College in 1718 after Elihu Yale (1649–1721), the original benefactor who was of Welsh ancestry. Indeed, the surname Yale comes from the Welsh place name Iâl. Eli- hu Yale himself is buried in his ancestral home in the churchyard of St. Giles Church, Wrexham, while Wrexham Tower at Yale University’s Saybrook College is modeled after St. Giles’s tower and incorporates an inscribed stone sent to the university as a gift from the church. The symposium coincides with two exhibitions opening at the Yale Center for British Art in spring 2014 that feature Welsh artists and depictions of Wales: Richard Wilson and the Transformation of European Landscape Painting (March 6–June 1, 2014) is the first major exhibition devoted to the Penegoes-born artist in thirty years and explores Wilson’s work in its broader European con- texts, focusing on his transformative experience in Rome, where he spent nearly seven years in the 1750s; and, Art in Focus: Wales (April 4–August 10, 2014), the Center’s eighth annual Student Guide exhibition, presents depictions of Welsh landscape in the Center’s collections and their sig- nificance to the history of landscape in British art.
