    LÉVY GORVY PRESENTS EXHIBITION FEATURING SIGMAR POLKE, ROY LICHTENSTEIN, AND GERALD LAING AND THEIR USE OF THE BEN-DAY DOT First exhibition to explore the greater transatlantic impact of the Ben-Day dot, focusing on the practice of Pop Art icons in Germany, the United States, and the United Kingdom Source and Stimulus: Polke, Lichtenstein, Laing 6 March – 21 April 2018 Opening Reception: 5 March 2018, 6–8pm 22 Old Bond Street, London, W1S 4PY London, UK, January 2018— In the late 19th century, the American illustrator and publisher Benjamin Day developed a cost-effective printing technique that used dots in different densities to reproduce images on a mass scale. This process, named after its inventor, matured over the next century and was utilised to print newspapers, advertisements, and pulp comic books in the 1950s and 60s. Sigmar Polke (Germany, 1941–2010), Roy Lichtenstein (United States, 1923–1997), and Gerald Laing (United Kingdom, 1936–2011)— along with the rest of the world—devoured this imagery daily, and chose to reconfigure it in their works. Sigmar Polke, Freundinnen (Girlfriends), 1965/1966, Dispersion paint on canvas, 59 × 74 3⁄4 inches (150 × 190 cm). Froehlich Collection, Stuttgart, © Estate of Sigmar Polke / Artists Rights Society (ARS), New York / VG Bild-Kunst, Bonn, Germany Opening 6 March at Lévy Gorvy’s London location, Source and Stimulus: Polke, Lichtenstein, Laing is an exhibition devoted to the Ben-Day dot. Featuring exceptional works by the trio of legendary artists, this is the first exhibition to connect them on the basis of their manipulation of the dot, transforming imagery from the commercial sphere into fine art.

  • TURNER PRIZE: Most Prestigious— Yet Also Controversial
    TURNER PRIZE: Most prestigious— yet also controversial Since its inception, the Turner Prize has been synonymous with new British art – and with lively debate. For while the prize has helped to build the careers of a great many young British artists, it has also generated controversy. Yet it has survived endless media attacks, changes of terms and sponsor, and even a year of suspension, to arrive at its current status as one of the most significant contemporary art awards in the world. How has this controversial event shaped the development of British art? What has been its role in transforming the new art being made in Britain into an essential part of the country’s cultural landscape? The Beginning The Turner Prize was set up in 1984 by the Patrons of New Art (PNA), a group of Tate Gallery benefactors committed to raising the profile of contemporary art. 1 The prize was to be awarded each year to “the person who, in the opinion of the jury, has made the greatest contribution to art in Britain in the previous twelve months”. Shortlisted artists would present a selection of their works in an exhibition at the Tate Gallery. The brainchild of Tate Gallery director Alan Bowness, the prize was conceived with the explicit aim of stimulating public interest in contemporary art, and promoting contemporary British artists through broadening the audience base. At that time, few people were interested in contemporary art. It rarely featured in non-specialist publications, let alone in the everyday conversations of ordinary members of the public. The Turner Prize was named after the famous British painter J.

It is the discernment of the reality of life, a piercing of the superficial surfaces of material existence that gives a work of art its own life and purpose and significant power.1 (Barbara Hepworth, 1937) In 1966, in her autobiographical essay A Sculptor’s Landscape, Barbara Hepworth reiterated the mental, rather than the visual inspiration that informed virtually all of her abstract, sculptural drawings from the early 1940s onwards, when she wrote: I rarely draw what I see – I draw what I feel in my body.2 By sculp- tural, I mean that the drawings echoed, were a two-dimensional exploration of her current three- dimensional obsessions.

We would love to hear from you about your own personal favourites. Pictured here, in a new posting, is our Vice-President, Wayne Sleep with Freddie Mercury and Elton John. Did you know, Freddie Mercury danced for the Royal Ballet? He performed in specially choreographed versions of Bohemian Rhapsody and Crazy Little Thing Called Love at a charity gala in 1979. A few years later, as a kind of cultural exchange, the Royal Ballet danced for Freddie Mercury, in the video for Queen's I Want to Break Free. The Merry Wives of Windsor Our very own Liz Schafer will be giving a talk at a Study Day at Shakespeare’s Globe - a day of talks, workshops, seminars and lively discussion on The Merry Wives of Windsor. This is an opportunity to meet like-minded audience members and explore the key themes and interpretations in the play with Globe artists and leading Shakespeare scholars. Professor Liz Schafer will run a session on 'How to become a Merry Wife and Influence People'. She will explore how the shrewd women in the play are able to be both merry and honest as well as disciplining the wayward men that surround them. Nickolas Grace Over the summer VWs President Nickolas Grace and Una Stubbs performed together as part of the Gillian Lynne Memorial at the West End Theatre named after her.

O modo como os indivíduos apropriam estes espaços e participam nas actividades que a cidade lhes oferece constrói a sua percepção sobre a cidade e sobre a sua identidade cultural. 2 De acordo com Duncan (1990), a cidade é um texto onde os valores, as características pessoais e o poder são inscritos, e que possibilita tantas “leituras” quantas os seus “leitores”. Assim sendo, cada indivíduo cria a sua própria “cidade interna” (Kavaratzis, 2004), ou seja, os diferentes sentimentos e experiências pessoais que permitem que cada sujeito compreenda a cidade de uma forma muito particular.
