  • The Launch of a Major New Cultural Biennial for Yorkshire the Main Focus of Activity at Harewood House in 2019
    21 January 2019 THE LAUNCH OF A MAJOR NEW CULTURAL BIENNIAL FOR YORKSHIRE THE MAIN FOCUS OF ACTIVITY AT HAREWOOD HOUSE IN 2019 “Why are we so interested in craft today?” is the question the inaugural Harewood Biennial seeks to answer when it launches at Harewood House in March 2019 and opens a vibrant new season at the Yorkshire stately home. The first exhibition of the Harewood Biennial is Useful/Beautiful: Why Craft Matters, which aims to challenge preconceptions, spark interest and inspire debate about the role craft can play in culture, identity and society. At a time when there is a surge of interest in craft, (from the supermarket to the catwalk) there is also confusion – is it a product or a process? Is it always handmade? Is it just a marketing buzzword? Visitors to Harewood, Leeds, will experience a visual treat across the House by some of the most exciting British-based makers of the moment. Each invited to interpret a different room, the twenty- six exhibitors work both nationally and internationally and span fashion, textiles, woodwork, glass, metalwork, furniture, papercraft and leather. Highlighting Yorkshire’s wealth of skilled talent, six of the twenty-six exhibitors showcased are based in Yorkshire. Distinguished names include Wakefield-based paper artist and illustrator Andy Singleton, Sheffield-born ceramicist Lena Peters and Whitby glass maker, Effie Burns, rubbing shoulders alongside statement printmaker Anthony Burrill, Welsh sustainable denim-makers Hiut Denim, whose jeans are worn by Meghan Markle, Freed dance shoes and the Emily Blunt-sporting Fox Umbrellas. Curated by design critic Hugo Macdonald, the exhibition crosses generations and disciplines, mixes classic and contemporary and uses Harewood House as a platform to showcase and question the very definition of skill and craft today.

    "Best Historic Locations in Leeds" Created By: Cityseeker 10 Locations Bookmarked Town Hall "An Architectural Delight" A stunning hybrid of classical Greek and baroque styles, this mid 19th- century public building is perhaps Leeds' most well-known landmark. Built by Charles Broderick between 1853 and 1858, it features a facade of giant columns supporting an elaborate domed tower. The richly decorated interior is equally spectacular, with statues by Matthew Noble sitting by Martyn M aka Martyx beneath ornate plaster ceilings. As well as being of great historical and architectural interest, the Town Hall is one of the city's premier music venues, hosting events including Lunchtime Organ Music and the International Concert Season. +44 113 224 3801 (Box Office) www.leedstownhall.co.uk/ The Headrow, Leeds Park Square "A Perfect Place To Get Away From It All" At the end of the 18th Century this elegant square was the most fashionable and salubrious residential area of Leeds. Typically late Georgian in style and character, its secluded garden and surrounding terraces of red-brick houses remain largely unspoiled by later development, making it a popular lunchtime spot for local office workers. by Mtaylor848 It is especially lovely in the spring and summer when the attractive flower beds burst into a riot of color and fragrance. +44 113 242 5242 (Tourist Information) Off St Paul's Street, Leeds Middleton Railway "The World's First Commercial Railway" While it may not quite be a train-spotting heaven, Middleton Railway is home to an impressive range of steam and diesel locomotives, some of which date from the 19th Century.

    THE NEWSLETTER OF THE LEEDS ART FUND SUPPORTING LEEDS ART GALLERIES SINCE 1912 NEW SERIES ISSUE 17 ACQUISITIONS, COLLECTIONS, SPRING 2021 REVIEWS AND EVENTS How the Artist was led to the Study of Nature by Andy Holden - Installation at Leeds Art Gallery. www.leedsartfund.org Photo Courtesy of Simon Warner, June 2018. RECENT ACQUISITION IMPORTANT DRAWINGS BY THOMAS CHIPPENDALE SENIOR AND JUNIOR The Chippendale Society has recently acquired six previously unknown drawings attributed to Thomas Chippendale senior and junior. The key to their attribution is provided by a drawing for a lantern pedestal, which is the design drawing for a set of six supplied by Chippendale to Harewood House in 1774. The drawings are by two different hands. Two are thought to date from about 1760 and are typical of Thomas Chippendale senior’s free-flowing style with its use of delicate washes to suggest shadow and perspective. The other four are by a different hand and can confidently be attributed to Thomas Chippendale junior (the first to be discovered) on the basis of strong similarities with his engravings published in 1779. These are the first Chippendale drawings of any kind in the fully mature neo-Classical style of the 1770s. Chippendale junior was first recorded as active in his father’s firm in 1766, aged 17, and his first signed drawing is of a neo-Classical tablet, dated 1772. However, it has long been assumed that he did not assume a significant role until c.1775-6. The new drawings demonstrate that Chippendale junior was involved much earlier than previously thought.
