Young Research Library, UCLA. UCLA Catalog Record ID UCLA Catalog Record ID: 6686873 Biography Sandra Maureen Fisher was an American artist born in New York City on May 6, 1947, to Ethel and Gene Fisher. Her early life was spent primarily in Florida and California. In 1968, Fisher received her Bachelor of Fine Arts from the Chouinard Art School at the California Institute of the Arts, Los Angeles. She lived in Canada briefly with her first husband, Garry Gregson, before returning to Los Angeles in 1970. In Los Angeles, Fisher worked at Gemini G.E.L. as an assistant to printmaker Kenneth Tyler. In 1971, Sandra moved to London in order to pursue her artistic career abroad. Shortly after her arrival, she befriended fellow artist, and future husband, R.B. Kitaj. She and Kitaj were married in 1983 at Bevis Marks synagogue in London. Fisher was known for her portrayal of a range of subjects including images drawn from opera and literature. She was also highly praised for her nudes and portraits. Like others artists in London at the time, she insisted on drawing from the human form. Sandra often liked to paint other artists, sitting for them in exchange. Several well known artists were painted by Fisher over the years, including: Maurice Cockrill, Christopher Cook, Stephen Finer, Maggi Hambling, Lino Mannocci, Susannah Phillips and R.B. Kitaj. Throughout her artistic career, Sandra was included in several group exhibitions. In 1982, Sandra staged her first solo exhibition at Coracle Press Gallery. Three subsequent solo exhibitions were held at Victoria Miro, 1987; Odette Gilbert, Finding Aid for the Sandra Fisher 1870 2 papers, 1957-2007 (bulk 1970-1994) 1989; and Lefevre Gallery, 1993. In 1989, Sandra was one of various artists commissioned by London Transport to create original artwork for a poster series called Art on the Underground. Due to the success of Sandra's first commission Boating on Regent's Park, Fisher was asked to do a second poster, the only artist to be given that honor. Sandra also enjoyed public success for her art works commissioned by Heineken Brewers. At the time of her unexpected death in 1994, Fisher had been working on a series of paintings commissioned for the Shakespeare Globe Theater in London. Scope and Content The contents of the Sandra Fisher Papers provide insight into the artist's life and career. The collection includes works by Sandra Fisher, correspondence, publicity materials, writings about Fisher, exhibition catalogues, materials related to specific projects and exhibitions, photographs and other collected mementos and ephemera.

    T Make Art Films, I Make People Films... Portraits Rather Than Profiles'

    CV 'I tell people that I don't make art films, I make people films... portraits rather than profiles' Jake Auerbach is a British film maker specialising in documentary subjects. Though his films have ranged across the cultural spectrum he is best known for his portraits of artists both contemporary and historical. “Auerbach is regarded as a maverick in the world of documentary, backing his own judgment rather than constructing films to suit broadcasters; he works, where possible, with the artists themselves, without the intervention of interpreters.” Jake was born in Sheffield, Yorkshire and educated in North London; he then joined the Economist newspaper. After two years he left to join the Henson Organisation, working on The Muppet Show and Dark Crystal… also spending a brief time as a puppeteer, most notably on Return of the Jedi as Jabba the Hutt’s cheek puff. Auerbach then worked in the USA on the film Haunted before returning to the UK and the editing department of the BBC. After a year in the cutting rooms working on strands such as Arena, Omnibus and Horizon he began to direct. There followed films on rock music, photography, Voodoo, football and major documentaries about London, the art market and filmed portraits of artists. In 1992 he left the BBC to become an independent. He now runs Jake Auerbach Films Ltd. - http://www.jakeauerbachfilms.com/ The company’s films include portraits of Lucian Freud, Walter Sickert, Allen Jones, Rodin, R. B. Kitaj, Paula Rego and the feature length Last Art Film and have been broadcast and shown in museums around the world… Seasons of his work have been shown at Abbot Hall, Pallant House and The National Portrait Gallery in London.

Kitaj also received a number of honorary doctorates and awards including the Golden Lion for Painting at the XLVI Venice Biennale (1995). He was inducted into the American Academy of Arts and Letters (1982) and the Royal Academy of Arts (1985).

    Newsletter Jan 2019

    Ipswich Art Society Registered charity no. 219257 Issue 73 www.ipswich-art-society.org.uk January 2019 newsletter It is sad to relate that we have lost two much loved and respected long standing members of the Society during this last year: Edwin Barritt and Anne Paterson Wallace. You will see this reflected in the affectionate Obituaries. The Winter Talk Series is moving to the Spring and we are experimenting with moving them to the afternoon rather than the evening. Some of the talks last year were more scantily attended than in the past and the committee conjectured that this may be to do with having to venture out on dark winter evenings. So, as a trial this year we are moving later in the year - to what we hope will be more clement weather - and to the afternoon, to see if that might widen the appeal to our membership and the public. We are just holding two this year to see how the experiment works and we have two excellent speakers. See Spring Talks for details. The 2018 Annual Open Exhibition at the Ipswich Art Gallery was a great success as ever. As reported in the last Newsletter we had a larger than ever volume of submissions, which is excellent news. Anticipating a similar response this year we will be making a couple of adjustments. The first is the selection process, which will be amended to help include more works and reduce the number of disappointments. The second concerns the the framing and fixings. We will not be able to handle the volume of works if such a large proportion of works continue to have the wrong fixings.

    Britain in the World 1860–Now

    yale center for british art Britain in the World 1860–now Second-floor galleries Rebecca Salter, born 1955, British K37 1996, mixed media on canvas The work of Rebecca Salter draws on a variety of artistic styles, media, and cultural traditions. Her distinctive approach was shaped primarily by the six years she spent in Kyoto, Japan, in the early 1980s, where she studied ceramics. She returned to her native London with a commitment to two-dimensional art and a particular interest in Japanese printmaking techniques and the subtle textures and surfaces of Japanese papers. In the late 1980s, however, she also began to make regular visits to the Lake District in northern England, taking inspiration from the austere landscape and ever-shifting weather conditions. Working within a tight tonal range and rarely letting one part of the canvas speak louder than any other, Salter’s paintings are nonetheless quietly compelling: a suitable match for the architecture of Louis Kahn (designer of the Yale Center for British Art), in whose memory this painting was purchased. Friends of British Art Fund and Gift of Jules David Prown, MAH 1971, in memory of Louis I. Kahn, B2011.8 Sandra Blow, 1925–2006, British Red Circle 1960, mixed media on board Sandra Blow emerged in the 1950s as one of the most innovative figures in British abstract art. Blow built her reputation as an independent and pioneering force despite making and keeping a loose connection to the modernists at St. Ives, especially Barbara Hepworth, Ben Nicholson, and Patrick Heron. Red Circle’s vivid band of color encircling concentric black rings on a monochrome field exemplifies her bold abstraction, which nevertheless references the natural world and organic forms.
