It is my birthday and I am 73 years old. ” It is now seven years since I made the first of the recordings which have been transcribed and edited to make the text of this book. I was persuaded to make these recordings by my friend, the art historian, Joseph Darracott. We had been friends for over forty years and finally I accepted that the project which he was proposing might be feasible and would be worth attempting. And so, in talking about my life as a painter, I applied myself to the discipline of working from a list of questions which had been prepared by Joseph. During our initial discussions about the book Joseph misunderstood my idea, which was to engage in a live dialogue with the cut and thrust of question and answer. The task of responding to questions which had been typed up in advance became much more difficult to deal with because an exercise such as this lacked the kind of stimulus which a live dialogue would have given to it.

Courtesy of Borough Road Gallery R - Dorothy Mead, Self Portrait, 1973. Courtesy of Borough Road Gallery ● A free afternoon of drawings and exploring portraits at Borough Road Gallery ● Live drawing sessions with local artist ● #CuratorTalks on portraiture and identity ● Art-inspired selfie booth Borough Road Gallery is hosting a drop in, free to attend art session inspired by the gallery’s collection of modern art, taking place in the gallery on Saturday 23 November. The event will explore ideas around portraiture and identity, through an afternoon of live drawing and curator talks, an art-inspired selfie station and the chance to explore the gallery’s permanent collection of paintings and drawings. Local artist Jenny Bell will run a series of interactive drawing activities asking us to rethink how we capture movement on the page - visitors will take turns modelling and drawing in charcoal to explore the many different ways the human form can be interpreted. Borough Road Gallery curator Theresa Kneppers will give short talks on artists representing the body, looking in-depth at two particular artworks by prominent female figures of the Borough Group, a collective of mid-20th-century artists from Southwark including Dorothy Mead and Edna Mann. This event is programmed by the Kids in Museums Youth Panel in association with the Borough Road Gallery.

  • Charcoal in Context Kelly Chorpening As This Is a Talk Related to An
    Charcoal in Context Kelly Chorpening As this is a talk related to an exhibition of charcoal drawings, what I would like to do within the next forty-five minutes is try and establish some context for David Bomberg’s work, his teaching and how it was interpreted by his students, in order to then relate that to the contemporary art practice. To do this, I will focus on three artists known for their use charcoal: William Kentridge and Kara Walker and Robert Longo. Beyond their work being made in the same medium, the relationship between the technical and material aspects of their work is intertwined with ideas in ways that establish an interesting link between the historic works in this exhibition and contemporary drawing practice. I have resisted a full art historical account of Bomberg’s history and tried to stick to motivations: as an artist, a teacher, and citizen. I would like to establish the relationship between the material and technical to the conceptual within these different historical contexts, leading to questions such as: are there qualities particular to the medium of charcoal that all artists are particularly drawn to? How can artists today relate to the ideas of Bomberg, especially in regard to expression and the spiritual qualities in art? And finally, in terms of motivations, what does this comparison yield? But first I would like to begin with two personal anecdotes. Firstly, as a student I was introduced to the work of Frank Auerbach in 1990. For those who may not know, Auerbach was a student of David Bomberg at Borough Polytechnic.

  • A Century of Painting Life 5
    ART HISTORY REVEALED Dr. Laurence Shafe This course is an eclectic wander through art history. It consists of twenty two-hour talks starting in September 2018 and the topics are largely taken from exhibitions held in London during 2018. The aim is not to provide a guide to the exhibition but to use it as a starting point to discuss the topics raised and to show the major art works. An exhibition often contains 100 to 200 art works but in each two-hour talk I will focus on the 20 to 30 major works and I will often add works not shown in the exhibition to illustrate a point. References and Copyright • The talks are given to a small group of people and all the proceeds, after the cost of the hall is deducted, are given to charity. • The notes are based on information found on the public websites of Wikipedia, Tate, National Gallery, Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, Khan Academy and the Art Story. • If a talk uses information from specific books, websites or articles these are referenced at the beginning of each talk and in the ‘References’ section of the relevant page.

    Patrick Procktor (1936-2003) Works on paper Patrick Procktor (1936-2003) Works on paper 20 Cork Street London W1S 3HL T +44 (0)20 7734 1732 redfern-gallery.com Patrick Procktor: Works on paper Ian Massey In recent years the work of Patrick Procktor has found a new and appreciative audience. It resonates particularly strongly with many contemporary figurative artists – those both fully established, and those in the early stages of their careers – who relate to its lightness of touch, to the eloquence of its restraint. Though much admired during the artist’s lifetime, such qualities were sometimes prone to be misread as easily achieved, his facility perceived as the result of dandyist legerdemain. In fact Procktor’s accomplishment was hard won, the consequence of years of graft and experimentation, in which drawing was both central and constant. In this selection of works on paper one is able to trace the evolution of his technique and visual language over the course of five decades. Here, both in working studies and in pieces made as works in their own right, one sees him exploring a wide range of methods and styles, working both from direct observation, memory and imagination, and occasionally from photographic sources. Procktor trained between 1958 and 1962 at the Slade, where under Professor William Coldstream’s directorship the emphasis was on the acquisition of a bedrock of academic drawing skills, with the first year of study spent making carefully measured drawings and paintings, very much along Euston Road School lines. Subsequently, influenced by a group of disciples of David Bomberg also then studying at the Slade, Procktor’s work became more expressive, his drawings built up sculpturally in layers of charcoal and ink, his paintings denser and more gestural.

  • 2008 London Group and PA to the President
    Review/preview from the President What an action-packed year we seem to be having! As I write this the highly successful Deutsche Bank Exhibition (Part 2) has just ended and the show at the new Mauger Modern Art in Bath opened yesterday. We have Mark Dickens with his excellent contacts to thank for giving the Group these welcome opportunities and for his hard work in organising both of them. The Bath gallery is a fine space and the show looks splendid. The PV cards have arrived for the exhibition of small works at the Highgate Gallery, taking place in May, and thanks go to Tom Scase for Mauger Modern Art organising this show. Bath This year we will be celebrating with ‘The London Group 95th Anniversary Exhibition’, a members’ show at the Menier Gallery in October/November. David Redfern will be publishing ‘The Origins and Post-war History of The London Group’ to mark this notable occasion and he will expand this into a complete history of the Group to coincide with our centenary. Plans for London Group exhibitions next year include a sculpture exhibition in January at The Cello Factory, at Waterloo, with a working-title ‘Stand Alone’, curated by Bill Watson and assisted by Clive Burton. This exhibition is for members whose work is predominantly free-standing. In March there will be an exhibition of drawing open to all members, at the Morley Gallery, curated by Wendy Smith and Suzan Swale and we will be holding our biennial Open Exhibition later in the year. Last May we voted in two new members, David Chalkley and Angela Eames and Philippa Beale was re-elected.
