Although he had largely abandoned pure Futurism, he continued to incorporate certain formal elements such as dynamism and geometric angularity into his frank, often illustrative images. Flight and his Grosvenor School colleagues took a more humanistic approach to modern life, celebrating its exciting dynamism in innovative yet accessible images of fast-moving amusement park rides, motorcar races, and urban transportation, to name just a few.

  • Grosvenor School Inspired 15 July
    PRESS RELEASE Grosvenor School Inspired A group exhibition of contemporary linocuts, inspired by the renowned Grosvenor School of Art style 15 th July – 28 th August 2016 Private view: Thursday 14 th July, 6-8pm Looking ahead for Brook’s Budleigh gallery we are excited to announce the upcoming summer exhibition, Grosvenor School Inspired , featuring artists: Paul Cleden, Lisa Takahashi and Andrew Pavitt. The British Grosvenor School of Modern Art was opened in 1925 by Claude Flight and Iain MacNab. Flight taught the art of lino-cutting and MacNab taught wood engraving. Other teachers included Cyril Power who lectured on architecture, Sybil Andrews as Secretary and Lill Tschudi attended as a young Swiss student. Claude Flight, a former engineer, taught students to produce multi-colour linocut prints by using different blocks for each colour. Flight’s work celebrated the speed, movement and hustle of modern life in the 1920s and 30s, with dominant themes of sport and transport. Many contemporary artists attempt to capture the essence of the Grosvenor School by producing these incredibly complex angular linocuts, few however succeed in the way that Paul Cleden, Lisa Takahashi and Andrew Pavitt do. Their prints notably capture the spirit of the genre whilst putting their own individual styling and nuances into the work. ‘My linocuts are in the tradition of Lill Tschudi, Sybil Andrews and Cyril Power, and more recently Michael Rothenstein and Edward Bawden’, quotes exhibiting artist Paul Cleden. ‘ I love to look at figurative movement; consequently sports are often featured because of the dynamic shapes and action, but equally a crowd of rush hour people leaving a train, or people browsing Dorchester market are wonderful inspiration, whenever I see a crowd my sketchbook twitches.’ Paul is an illustrator, printmaker and writer, originally graduated from London, now lives and works in Dorset.

He introduced his pupils to the formal Art Gallery of Greater language of the avant-garde art of the Italian Futurists, the French Cubists, and the English Vorticists, all of which influenced Andrew’s work. Following World War II Andrews Victoria emigrated from Britain to Campbell River, BC, where she spent the rest of her life 1040 Moss Street adapting her modernist approach to decidedly West Coast subjects including First Nations Victoria, BC, V8V 4P1 culture, the rainforest, and the logging and fishing industries. 250.384.4171 aggv.ca Gwenda Morgan studied wood-engraving, part-time, with a variety of instructors from 1930-36 at the Grosvenor School.

Draft chapter for Vincent Sherry, ed., The Cambridge History of Modernism Modernism and Technology Nicholas Daly, University College Dublin Modernism first emerges during the transformations of time and space wrought by the age of steam, and it comes to dominance against the background of the ‘second industrial revolution’. This revolution, which was really more of an intensification of earlier processes, was driven by, inter alia, the exploitation of electricity and the internal combustion engine, use of early plastics (celluloid, and later bakelite), the oneiric power of the cinematograph, the sound- reproduction technology of the phonograph, and the communications technologies of the telephone and later the radio. In theoretical terms one could argue that there is no space, no “and” between modernism and these technological shifts: they are bound together in a common culture. But for practical purposes we can describe a set of relations between the two: Modernism incorporates technological change as historical content; it appropriates new representational means for its own artistic practices; and at times it self-consciously draws on the machine world for aesthetic models.

  • Press Release 2019 EXHIBITION PROGRAMME
    Press Release Embargo: 12pm, 16 May 2018 2019 EXHIBITION PROGRAMME Dulwich Picture Gallery today announces details of its 2019 exhibition programme, a revelatory year which will introduce the Norwegian artist, Harald Sohlberg, to the UK, shine a spotlight on the inspirational printmaking of The Grosvenor School of Modern Art and - in a dramatic twist - present a new way of looking at Rembrandt and his mastery of light. The year will also see the return of the Dulwich Pavilion, which will be constructed in the spring and open to the public throughout the summer. HARALD SOHLBERG: PAINTING NORWAY Dates: 13 February - 2 June 2019 Press View: 12 February 2019 Curated by Kathleen Soriano, Freelance Art Historian Supported by The Savings Bank Foundation DNB. In Partnership with National Museum of Art, Architecture and Design, Oslo and Museum Wiesbaden The Gallery’s first show of 2019 will showcase the highly original landscapes of the Norwegian neo-romantic artist, Harald Sohlberg (1869 – 1935), arguably the greatest master of landscape painting in the history of Norwegian art. Timed to coincide with the 150th anniversary of Sohlberg’s birth it will be the first major show of his work outside of Norway, bringing together around 100 works with a large selection never-before exhibited. Like Edvard Munch, Sohlberg strongly denied the influence of other contemporary artists, disassociating himself from discussions about where he belonged in the history of art. Instead he relegated the origins of his artistic awakening to his own psyche and to the intense stories and mythologies of the Norwegian land. Consequently Sohlberg’s paintings depict the wilderness of the Nordic landscape, the soft beauty of the flower fields and the harsh cold of the winter.

Comprising 117 lots, the sale offers a remarkable array of rare works by the most acclaimed masters of printmaking, including Albrecht Dürer, Rembrandt van Rijn, Giovanni Battista Piranesi and Francisco de Goya. In Prints & Multiples on Thursday, 4 December 2014, Christie’s South Kensington will present important lithographs by the British war artists Paul Nash and Christopher Richard Wynne Nevinson, as well as a great collection of linocuts by the artists of the Grosvenor School: Sybil Andrews, Claude Flight, Cyril Power, Ethel Spowers, Lill Tschudi and others. The two auctions provide opportunities for both new and established collectors to acquire important works by some of the most celebrated artists of their times, with estimates ranging from £500 to £300,000. Exemplifying the quality of prints to be offered in the Old Master Prints sale is Rembrandt’s The presentation in the temple in the dark manner, circa 1654 (estimate: £100,000 -150,000, illustrated right). This exquisite and extremely rare etching, from the important collections of Marsden Perry and Otto Gerstenberg, depicts the presentation of the Christ child in the temple, as related in the Gospel of Luke (2:22-39). It was a favoured subject of the artist: in the course of his career he created five different variations on the theme, three etchings and two paintings (Hamburger Kunsthalle and National Museum, Stockholm).
