His death in that conflict meant that this was a career that lasted barely twenty years; however it comprised a large range of creative endeavours. Although all these facets of Whistler’s career are touched upon, the main focus is on his work in murals and the fields of advertising and commercial design. The thesis goes beyond the remit of a purely biographical stance and places Whistler’s career in context by looking at the contemporary art world in which he worked, and the private, commercial and public commissions he secured. In doing so, it aims to provide a more comprehensive account of Whistler’s achievement than has been afforded in any of the existing literature or biographies. This deeper examination of the artist’s practice has been made possible by considerable amounts of new factual information derived from the Whistler Archive and other archival sources.

  • Corey Allikas Painting the War: Artistic Depictions of World War II in Europe, 1939-1945 HIST
    Corey Allikas Painting the War: Artistic Depictions of World War II in Europe, 1939-1945 HIST 395 - Fall Semester (Galgano) World War II shaped the twentieth century, as its events and aftermath affected the entire globe. The attitudes and actions of the nations' populations determined how the war played out, and the thing that most shaped these peoples' actions was war art. War art in World War II had two important goals: mobilization of citizens and creation of accurate depictions of the battlefield. War art's intended audience was foremost the citizens, as their support for the war was crucial to success. Dependence on civilian support - both through labor and service - was much greater in World War II than in any other previous war. Many participating nations in WWII developed war art programs, with the goal of showing the warfront to garner civilian support back home. Artists ranged from active-duty soldiers, like in the United States, to civilians following troops on tours, like Great Britain. These hired artists were given specific subjects to depict, depending on where they were stationed; the first hand account ensured the most accurate depictions possible. However, the disparity between the actual war fronts and the artists' depictions was present in all major art programs. This paper looks at the war art from the major powers in World War II: Great Britain, the United States, and Germany. It examines the styles adopted by artists in these nations, the subjects artists depicted, and the war art's purpose in society. Germany, to anchor their claim of "supreme race", used traditional art forms similar to the Roman Empire.

We’ve been featured on radio and in the newspapers. And the public continues to flock through the doors of our headquarters when we have open house days. Visitors enjoying an Open House Tour at the GAC’s premises We continue to make our resources stretch as far as they can. The Director’s report highlights some of the exciting and important works which we have been able to acquire over the last year. This continues the GAC’s track record of making acquisitions by British artists of the highest calibre, fulfilling its role in promoting British art by displaying it in Government buildings in the UK and abroad. The Collection plays a vital part in Britain’s representation abroad: both as a reminder of our historical past and an illustration of our contemporary preoccupations. Our activities are an integral part of the UK’s diplomatic mission. We are pleased that we are increasingly playing a strategic role when new embassies are being planned.

  • Figurative Art and Feminism
    Re-presenting melancholy: Figurative art and feminism Christina Reading A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the University of Brighton for the degree of Doctorate in Fine Art April 2015 The University of Brighton in collaboration with the University for the Creative Arts Re-presenting melancholy: Figurative art and feminism Re-presentations of women’s melancholic subjectivity by women figurative artists from different historical moments, canonical images of melancholy and theoretical accounts of melancholy are brought together to address the question: ‘What aspects of women’s experience of melancholy have women figurative artists chosen to represent historically and contemporaneously, and further what is the importance of these artworks for understanding the nature of women’s melancholic subjectivity today?’ The question is examined through an original juxtaposition of women’s figurative art history, theories of melancholy and the author’s own studio practice. Adopting and refining Griselda Pollock’s method of the Virtual Feminist Museum, the thesis elaborates a new critical and creative space to gather, re-read and make artwork to address the theme of women’s experiences of melancholy (Pollock, 2007). The author curates a ‘virtual feminist museum’ of women’s figurative art dealing with melancholy, past and present. Using Pollock’s model as a trigger, the research project sets up a space for interrogating what new meanings are revealed in relation to notions of melancholy by examining the overlaps, collisions and juxtapositions between the works the author has selected and the works the author has made. The artworks are theorised and interpreted by their relationship to the following discourses: the history of figurative art practice, melancholy and feminism; Freud’s foundational text ‘Mourning and melancholia’ (1917); and the examination of the author’s own representational multimedia studio practice.

  • British Paintings & Works on Paper 1890–1990
    British Paintings & Works on Paper 1890–1990 LISS FINE ART TWENTIETH-CENTURY MYTHS Twentieth-century British art is too often presented as a stylistic progression. top right In fact, throughout the century, a richness and diversity of styles co-existed. Albert de Belleroche, Head of This catalogue is presented in chronological order and highlights both some a woman – three quarter profile, late 1890s (cat. 62) extraordinary individual pictures and the interdependent nature of the artistic ground from which they flowered. bottom right Michael Canney, Sidefold V, Abstraction may well have been the great twentieth century art invention, yet 1985 (cat. 57) most of its leading artists were fed by both the figurative and abstract traditions and the discourse between them. Sir Thomas Monnington,the first President of the Royal Academy to make abstract paintings, acknowledged the importance of this debate, when he declared,‘You cannot be a revolutionary and kick against the rules unless you learn first what you are kicking against. Some modern art is good, some bad, some indifferent. It might be common, refined or intelligent.You can apply the same judgements to it as you can to traditional works’.1 Many of the artists featured in this catalogue – Monnington, Jas Wood, Banting, Colquhoun, Stephenson, Medley, Rowntree,Vaughan, Canney and Nockolds – moved freely between figurative and abstract art. It was part of their journey. In their ambitious exploration to find a pure art that went beyond reality, they often stopped, or hesitated, and in many cases returned to figurative painting. Artists such as Bush, Knights, Kelly and Cundall remained throughout their lives purely figurative.Their best work, however, is underpinned by an economy of design, which not only verges on the abstract, but was fed by the compositional purity developed by the pursuit of abstraction.

  • Visions of the End in Interwar British Art Thomas Bromwell Phd
    Visions of the End in Interwar British Art Thomas Bromwell PhD University of York History of Art September 2019 Abstract The cessation of hostilities to the Great War with the signing of the Armistice on 11 November 1918 brought the largest and most devastating war hitherto known to an end. It was meant to be the “War to End War”, yet a little over twenty years later in 1939 it was eclipsed by the devastation of the Second World War. The shadow of war loomed over the intervening years, which were marked by pronounced speculation on where human society was going; for every prophet of doom anticipating collapse into degradation, animosity, and self-annihilation there was a contrasting viewpoint awaiting the move towards a better new world. Further, these assessments often overlapped. This thesis examines the impact of apocalyptic ideas within British art in the interwar years. It looks at painting, drawings, prints, and sculpture, addressing the use and development of apocalyptic concepts during the period 1918-1939, and explicitly relates contemporary anxieties and apocalyptic evocations with Christian apocalyptic narratives. Interwar British society at large identified with Christian traditions, either as products of a Christian education and state, or through belief. The Apocalypse is central to Christian hope. The project surveys this underappreciated aspect of the period in order to recognize the influence of Judeo-Christian apocalyptic traditions. The apocalyptic orientation, both in its religious and secular forms, has been recognised as a manifestation arising from anxiety in the contemporary context. This thesis reveals a British permutation of a general (European) trend.

  • Eric Ravilious (1903-1942) December, February and May From
    Eric Ravilious (1903-1942) December, February and May from Almanack 1929 with Twelve Designs Engraved on Wood Wood engravings, 1928 Julian Francis Collection Almanacs set out the key dates in the calendar and also provided astrological forecasts for the year. They advised on the best times for planting, auspicious and unlucky days and gave long range weather forecasts based on the movement of the stars and phases of the moon. Eric Ravilious was commissioned to illustrate the Lanston Monotype Corporation’s Almanack in 1929. He chose to include figures representing the signs of the zodiac in scenes of the Sussex countryside, recapturing some of the old mystical tradition of astrological powers influencing daily life. He wrote that: ‘The deities who became symbolised in the planets were thought to govern the change of the seasons and thus the agricultural labours of each month’. Ravilious established his reputation as a wood engraver before becoming better known as a painter of watercolour landscapes. John Nash (1893-1977) Wild Garden, Winter Watercolour, 1959 Tate: Presented by the Trustees of the Chantrey Bequest 1959 In 1944 John Nash moved to Bottengoms farmhouse, a virtually derelict building near Wormingford in Essex. During the summer he would head off on painting expeditions across Britain with artist friends such as Edward Bawden but during the winter it was Bottengoms and the surrounding country that occupied him. Wild Garden, Winter shows one of the ponds at Bottengoms, the nearby stand of saplings reflected on its icy surface. Nash had overseen the rescue of the garden from years of neglect and saw its layout and planting as one of his most satisfying achievements.
