    THE FRY ART GALLERY TOO When Bardfield Came to Walden Artists in Saffron Walden from the 1960s to the 1980s 2 December 2017 to 25 March 2018 Welcome to our new display space - The Fry Art Gallery Too - which opens for the first time while our main gallery at 19a Castle Street undergoes its annual winter closure for maintenance and work on the Collection. The north west Essex village of Great Bardfield and its surrounding area became the home for a wide range of artists from the early 1930s until the 1980s. More than 3000 examples of their work are brought together in the North West Essex Collection, selections of which are displayed in exhibitions at The Fry Art Gallery. Our first display in our new supplementary space focuses on those artists who lived at various times in and around Saffron Walden in the later twentieth century. Edward and Charlotte Bawden were the first artists to arrive in Great Bardfield around 1930, along with Eric and Tirzah Ravilious. After 30 years at Brick House, Charlotte arranged in 1970 that she and Edward would move to Park Lane, Saffron Walden for their later years. Sadly, Charlotte died before the move, but Edward was welcomed into an established community of successful professional artists in and around the town. These included artists Paul Beck and John Bolam, and the stage designers Olga Lehmann and David Myerscough- Jones. Sheila Robinson had already moved to the town from Great Bardfield in 1968, with her daughter Chloë Cheese, while the writer and artist Olive Cook had been established here with her photographer and artist husband Edwin Smith for many years.

    Bold Impressions: A Comparative Analysis of Artist Prints and Print Collecting at the Imperial War Museum and Australian War Memorial Alexandra Fae Walton A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of the Australian National University, June 2017. © Copyright by Alexandra Fae Walton, 2017 DECLARATION PAGE I declare that this thesis has been composed solely by myself and that it has not been submitted, in whole or in part, in any previous application for a degree. Except where stated otherwise by reference or acknowledgement, the work presented is entirely my own. Acknowledgements I was inspired to write about the two print collections while working in the Art Section at the Australian War Memorial. The many striking and varied prints in that collection made me wonder about their place in that museum – it being such a special yet conservative institution in the minds of many Australians. The prints themselves always sustained my interest in the topic, but I was also fortunate to have guidance and assistance from a number of people during my research, and to make new friends. Firstly, I would like to say thank you to my supervisors: Dr Peter Londey who gave such helpful advice on all my chapters, and who saw me through the final year of the PhD; Dr Kylie Message who guided and supported me for the bulk of the project; Dr Caroline Turner who gave excellent feedback on chapters and my final oral presentation; and also Dr Sarah Scott and Roger Butler who gave good advice from a prints perspective. Thank you to Professor Joan Beaumont, Professor Helen Ennis and Professor Diane Davis from the Australian National University (ANU) for making the time to discuss my thesis with me, and for their advice.

  • Ravilious: the Watercolours Free
    FREE RAVILIOUS: THE WATERCOLOURS PDF James Russell | 184 pages | 28 Apr 2015 | Philip Wilson Publishers Ltd | 9781781300329 | English | London, United Kingdom Eric Ravilious - Wikipedia E ric Ravilious, one of the best British watercolourists of the 20th century, was the very opposite of a tortured artist. It helped perhaps that he always enjoyed acclaim, for his many book illustrations and his ceramic designs, as well as for his paintings. But it was also a matter of temperament. He loved dancing, tennis and pub games, was constantly whistling, and even in the mids found little time for politics, working up only a mild interest in the international crisis or the latest Left Book Club choice. He was, by all Ravilious: The Watercolours, excellent company. Cheerfulness kept creeping in. His delight in the world informs his work. Alan Powers, probably the greatest authority on the artist, has written that "happiness is a quality that is difficult to convey through design, but Ravilious consistently managed to generate it". And David Gentleman has remarked that Ravilious Ravilious: The Watercolours "an easy artist to like". His woodcuts for books and vignettes for Wedgwood the alphabet mug, the boat-race bowlare regularly described as witty and charming. And many of his watercolours, too, attract such epithets as "friendly". Much of his subject-matter Ravilious: The Watercolours pastoral and unassuming, and he was a virtuoso at capturing everyday scenes and little details from English provincial life. Among the sequences of his paintings were those featuring, Ravilious: The Watercolours his words, "lighthouses, rowing-boats, beds, beaches, greenhouses". Even when he became an official war artist, he tended to domesticate any novelty or threat — fighter planes line up harmlessly beyond a garden hedge, and barrage balloons bob cheerfully in the sky.

LORD HALIFAX TO OPEN EXHIBITION. On Thursday evening, May 22, Lord Halifax, Great Britain's Ambassador to the United States, will formally open at the Museum of Modern Art an exhibition of the Art of Britain At War, designed to show the wartime roles England assigns to her artists and de­ signers. It will be composed of oils, watercolors, drawings, prints, posters, cartoons, films, photographs, architecture and camouflage of the present war as well as work of British artists during the first World War. The exhibition will open to the public Friday morning, May 23, and will remain on view throughout the summer. It will then be sent by the Museum to other cities in the United States and Canada, The nucleus of the exhibition opening in May will be the group of paintings, watercolors and prints which the Museum expected to open as a much smaller exhibition in November 1940. After several postponments the Museum was finally forced to abandon it as, due to wartime shipping conditions, the pictures did not arrive although word had been received that the shipment had left London early in November. The Museum received the shipment late in January. After weeks of further negotiation with British officials in this country and by cable with London the Museum decided that it would be possible to augment the material already received with other work done by British artists since the first material was sent.

Edward Bawden, Eric Ravilious and John Aldridge were the first artists to settle in the Essex village of Great Bardfield in the early 1930s. Others soon followed, and their diverse output contributed strongly to British visual culture and artis- tic practice over many decades. The influence of this area continues to this day through the work of prominent contem- porary artists. The main Gallery, in Castle Street, Saffron Walden, is open from April to October. WHEN BARDFIELD CAME TO WALDEN Artists in Saffron Walden 1960s to 1980s In 1970 Charlotte Bawden arranged that she and Edward would move from Great Bardfield to Park Lane, Saffron Walden, where life would be more convenient. Sadly, she died before this was achieved, but Edward found a welcome in an established community of successful artists. Paul Beck, John Bolam, Olga Lehmann and David Myerscough-Jones all had established reputations, and Sheila Robinson had moved there from Great Bardfield in 1968. Olive Cook and Edwin Smith, well-known for their books on the English countryside, and the long-running Saturday Books, had long been established in the town.
