Articoli correlati a Robin Darwin: Visionary Educator and Painter
Sir Robert Vere “Robni” Darwin was a major figure in midcentury British art. As Rector of the Royal College of Art (RCA) for more than three decades, he re-shaped arts education in Britain, with outstanding results—the RCA’s roster of graduates during Darwin’s tenure reads like a who’s who of British postwar art and design, including such major figures as David Hockney, Peter Blake, and James Dyson.
This book traces Darwin’s life, work, and influence, taking him from his wartime work with camouflage through his key role in postwar reconstruction projects and in the sprawling, innovative Festival of Britain in 1951, then on to his decades leading the RCA. Throughout, Henrietta Goodden shows how Darwin translated his artistic understanding to institutional settings, and how his eye for innovation and ability to connect people fueled the creativity of students and administrators alike.

Descrizione libro gebunden. Condizione: Neu. Neu -Sir Robert Vere (Robin) Darwin (1910-1974), Urenkel von Charles Darwin, war ein bedeutender britischer Künstler und einflussreicher Rektor des Royal College of Art (RCA) von 1948 bis 1971. Die Liste der RCA-Absolventen von 1950-1980 ist eindrucksvoll, nicht nur Künstler wie David Hockney und Peter Blake haben dort studiert, sondern auch führende Industriedesigner wie James Dyson. Das heutige besondere Ansehen des Royal College of Art ist vor allem das Verdienst dieses einen Mannes, der voller visionärer Kraft und Leidenschaft diese Institution führte und modernisierte. Die von Darwin rekrutierten RCA-Professoren, Tutoren und Gastdozenten gehören zum Besten, was britisches Design und Kunst der Nachkriegszeit zu bieten haben. Sie haben ihr Können eindrucksvoll an jüngere Generationen weitergegeben. (Text engl.)\\nSchlagwörter: robin darwin, visionary educator and painter, ein visionärer lehrer und maler, Sachgruppen: Geisteswissenschaften, Kunst, Musik, Kunst, Kunstgeschichte Format: 24,00 x 16,50 x 2,00 cm Englisch.
