Surrealism has never had a single over-riding visual aesthetic, but has constantly reinven- ted its means of poetic expression.

    Handlist 74 UNIVERSITY OF LEEDS THE LIBRARY Archives of the Queen Square and Park Square Galleries, Special Collections MS 712 Part I: Collective exhibitions Mrs Sarah Gilchrist opened her commercial gallery in Queen Square, Leeds, in 1964; the enterprise flourished and she moved it to new premises in Park Square, Leeds, in 1968. She retired in 1978 though the gallery has continued under different aegis. In 1981 she was awarded an honorary degree by the University of Leeds and in the summer of 1984 through the timely intervention of Mr Stephen Chaplin of the University's Department of Fine Art, she most kindly agreed to give the accumulated archive of her galleries up to the date of her retirement to the Brotherton Library. The archive illustrates the relationship between artist and gallery, and between gallery and collector; it also illuminates taste and patronage in Yorkshire in the third quarter of the 20th century. This first part of a complete catalogue refers to collective exhibitions; further parts will deal. with one-man exhibitions, a picture lending scheme and other matters. Each catalogue will have indexes of exhibitors and of correspondents.

    Jay StoDrinkall r m Index Jay Drinkall – Storm Index Montez Press Writers Grant -4ºC in March. In the north of England spring conceals winter like a knife. Ascending slowly, vapours rise from the high ground ahead. The storm they are calling the BEAST FROM THE EAST has rolled chaotically in, snow is baked onto the mountainside in crystalline swirls. Everything is wracked in ice. Clough is the dialect word for steep valley or ravine. From Old English clōh, itself thought to stem from the Proto-Germanic klanhaz (‘cleft’, ‘sluice’, ‘abyss’). Many slice this scrunchy, sprawling mountain: one between each named protrusion of its southerly faces. We’re climbing the western edge of one gradu- ated panhandle called Saddle Fell. Wolf Fell threatens directly to the west, separated craggily from our outcrop by White Stone Clough. The gentler slopes of Burnslack protrude benignly to the east, their roundness belying the twist of a steep ravine below. Desperation is knowing I am red. With this morning’s coffee the climb has made me embarrassingly ruddy. I half- hope the man I’m with – let’s call him Keir – won’t look back to catch my eye. He doesn’t. Farm specifically ‘sheep farm’, which is how Keir dismisses our surroundings. He hates sheep, not as individ- uals but for what they represent en masse: you might call it the ovine-industrial complex. He is frown- ing at the convincingly rugged landscape, one aggressively shaped by agro-industry and then cunningly re-packaged as wilderness. Still, it was first carved by a deep and glacial memory.

(Diana Flatley) DISCLAIMER | DMCA 63RUGCFLZGRE // Kindle Sheila Fell: A Passion for Paint SHEILA FELL: A PASSION FOR PAINT Lund Humphries Publishers Ltd. Hardback. Book Condition: new. BRAND NEW, Sheila Fell: A Passion for Paint, Cate Haste, Frank Auerbach, Born into a mining family in rural Cumberland, British painter Sheila Fell (1931-79) studied at Carlisle College of Art, then at St Martin's School of Art in London. Though she spent her adult life in London, her artistic inspiration came from the dramatic images of the landscape of her childhood in the tough northern fells, which she interpreted with a unique intensity, authenticity and expressive power. With her narrow focus on place, she found a poetic language to express the interdependence of earth, people and work, and the universal struggle between nature and humanity's precarious survival in an unforgiving landscape. Talented, determined and charismatic, Sheila Fell was one of the very few women artists to achieve national recognition in the 1950s and 1960s and was one of the youngest artists ever to be elected a Royal Academician in 1974. L.S. Lowry praised her as the best landscape painter of the age and became her lifelong supporter and patron.
