Overview Edward Ardizzone RA was one of relatively few British artists who defined the field of illustration for their generation. Although his work as an artist and illustrator was wide-ranging, it is for his illustrated children's books, almost continuously available since they were first published from the late s onwards, that he is best known. This book provides the first fully illustrated survey of Ardizzone's work, analysing his activity as an artist and illustrator in the context of 20th- century British art, illustration, printing and publishing. Copiously illustrated with many previously unpublished images, Edward Ardizzone: Artist and Illustrator also contributes more broadly to the Edward Ardizzone: Artist and Illustrator reassessment and investigation of midth-century British art Edward Ardizzone: Artist and Illustrator illustration. Alan Powers author of the bestselling Eric Ravilious: Artist and Designer has written a critically considered text which draws for the first time on the family's archives, those of Ardizzone's publishers, and conversations with those who knew the artist.

Black December, 2012 ii BRITAIN’S CAMP: THE BRITISH NATIONALIST NARRATIVE OF BERGEN-BELSEN BY DORIS ZINKEISEN ___________________________ An Abstract of a Thesis Presented to The Faculty of the Department of Art History University of Houston ___________________________ In Partial Fulfillment Of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Art History ___________________________ By Rebecka A. Black December, 2012 iii ABSTRACT British painter Doris Zinkeisen (1889 – 1991) is largely unknown to art history. Therefore, her paintings done as a commissioned war artist (1941 – 1945) have yet to be adequately examined. The majority of these 14 works are easily understood as nationalist propaganda as they depict the relief work of British forces in Europe. However, Doris Zinkeisen also produced three paintings of the Nazi concentration camp at Bergen- Belsen: Belsen: April, 1945, Human Laundry and The Burning of Belsen, which have been interpreted as harrowing works of Holocaust art. This thesis examines these three works by Zinkeisen and argues they are best understood as nationalist propaganda for Britain. This thesis seeks to expand the art historical scholarship on an unremembered, yet prolific artist. Second, it contributes research to the study of British commissioned war-time art. Finally, it reclaims nationalist propaganda too long misunderstood as Holocaust art. iv TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction 1 Memory of Belsen through Nationalism 2 British Commissioned War Art 6 Zinkeisen and the Belsen Narrative 7 Setting the Stage 8 Act I: Belsen: April, 1945 15 The Problem 15 Society of Spectacle 23 Act II: Human Laundry 31 German vs.

    A MAGAZINE ABOUT THE LIFE AND WORK OF SIR NOËL COWARD • MAY 2012 News and views of the Star Quality exhibition - and the ‘Noël Coward in New York’ festival. GOLDENHURST LunEch wnith cJuoliaun Cnlatry eatr Geodldenhurst and a review of his recently-published novel ‘Briefs Encountered’. Noël Coward at ‘Look Out’ - Firefly, Jamaica PRODUCED AND PUBLISHED BY THE INTERNATIONAL NOËL COWARD SOCIETY - 1- www.noëlcoward.net hat an amazing month March was! Apart from reasonable weather, two of the most significant events for me marked an early opening of Spring EDITORIAL long before an Easter chick was a wink in a cockerel’s eye. Out of the blue came a charming invitation from Julian Clary for the officers of the Society to visit The Old Manor - but forever Goldenhurst in the eye of the Coward faithful - for lunch and a celebration of the completed renovation of Noël’s country retreat in Kent and the publication of Julian’s novel Briefs Encountered. As Daniel Massey said once about an invitation to Noël’s for lunch, “Well, you don’t turn that down!” And we didn’t! More on the visit in this edition. The climax of the month was the opening of Star Quality - The World of Noël Coward at the Lincoln Center in New York. This exhibition has been rightly trumpeted in Home Chat for the past few editions and the result did not let the herald down. This really is an impressive achievement. As a result of an initial partnership between the New York Public Library for the Performing Arts (NYPL) and The Noël Coward Foundation (NCF) the idea was born - and together with other partners - the exhibition was created.
