Paperback. Condizione: New. With a career spanning more than five decades, Ian McKeever is one of Britain's most senior artists working on the international stage. This publication documents the Henge paintings - a series started in 2017 and completed over the course of five years, inspired by prehistoric standing stones in the county of Wiltshire, England, and continuing the artist's long-standing investigation into the languages and possibilities of abstract painting.Comprising thirty paintings along with numerous works on paper, the genesis of the series was a visit by McKeever to the world-famous neolithic site in the village of Avebury in 2016, where he took black and white photographs of the large stones that form three discrete circles: two smaller ones contained within the largest. Erected some 4500 years ago, Avebury is the largest stone circle in Britain, and forms part of what English Heritage asserts to be 'a set of neolithic and Bronze Age ceremonial sites that seemingly formed a vast sacred landscape.'Art historian and curator Paul Moorhouse, in his essay commissioned for the publication, describes how McKeever 'framed each megalith in close-up, their edges visible at the extremity of the resulting images,' explaining how 'the experience of moving around Avebury and responding to the huge stones' monumental presence made an abiding impression that resonated with deep-seated preoccupations.' McKeever's resulting body of work is an earnest and considered exploration into how paint can convey universal forces and properties such as mass, gravity and time, and how colour, texture and abstraction can converse with three-dimensional space, form and materiality. The relationship between painting and sculpture in McKeever's work is discussed by means of an in-conversation between the artist and Dr Jon Wood. 'My interest in alluding to early megalithic sites in titling the group of paintings Henge paintings,' says McKeever, 'was in touching that deeper sense of time, time's weight, so to speak. How to imbue a painting with its own weight of time, forsake the immediacy of the here and now.'Designed and produced by Tim Harvey, the publication has been printed by Narayana Press in Odder, Denmark. It is published by Anomie, London, with support from Galleri Susanne Ottesen, Copenhagen, and Heather Gaudio Fine Art, New Canaan, Connecticut. The publication accompanies exhibitions of selected works from the Henge paintings at both galleries in 2022.Ian McKeever was born 1946, Withernsea, Yorkshire, UK. He lives and works in Hartgrove, Dorset. McKeever has received numerous awards including the prestigious DAAD scholarship in Berlin 1989/90 and was elected a Royal Academician in 2003. He has held several teaching positions including Guest Professor at the Städel Akademie der Kunst in Frankfurt, Senior Lecturer, Slade, University of London and Visiting Professor at the University of Brighton. He has also published many texts on painting.Recent public solo exhibitions include Ia.…

Fascinating artistic correspondence, sketches and notes preparatory to the Presences of Nature exhibition held in Carlisle in 1982. The correspondence is all addressed to Neil Hanson, then Carlisle Museum Exhibitions' Officer and the exhibition's organiser who describes its aim 'to assemble a substantial body of new work reflecting the beauty and variety of this Cumbrian landscape and the diversity of response it engenders in some of our finest contemporary artists, writers, photographers and craftsmen.' Accompanying the manuscript material is the book that was published to mark the exhibition; some staining to the lower part of the foreedge. The collection comprises the following artists and writers: William Scammell: [4 ALS] A collection of letters by William Scammell, two on University of Newcastle headed notepaper. In his letters Scammell discusses the commission and his proposed submissions, including "The Screes" and "Monday,Monday". He also includes a biographical note and details of his published books. John Hilliard: [3 TLS] Three letters by the conceptual artist John Hilliard, discussing the commission and his reticence in being considered a 'Lakeland' artist. He proposes two submissions, 'Frozen' and 'Double Description-Coniston Water' and gives detailed framing instructions, hand-drawn in pen. Donald Wilkinson: [6 ALS; 1 handwritten biography; 1 lithographic Christmas card] A collection of letters and a signed coloured etching of a Lake District landscape by the printmaker Donald Wilkinson, made in connection with the exhibition in the Lake District in 1982. In his letters, Wilkinson discusses the commission and encloses the Christmas card as an example of his recent work. John A Davies: [5 ALS; 1 pencil sketch; 1 handwritten biography] A collection of letters by the photographer John A Davies. Davies expresses his interest in the commission "I think the show would prove very stimulating and I would be most interested to see how other contemporary artists see the Cumbrian landscape." He lists the 12 photographs to be exhibited along with an A5 page of annotated pencil sketches of each, and discusses their reproduction for the exhibition catalogue. Roger Palmer: [6 ALS; 1 postcard; 1 ANS] A collection of letters by the photographer Roger Palmer. In these succinct letters, Palmer discusses the commission and his proposed submissions. Faith Shannon: [3 ALS; 1 TLS; 1 handmade Christmas card] Letters by the bookbinder Faith Shannon MBE, in which she discusses the commission to produce leather bindings for the deluxe editions of the exhibition catalogue, and includes an estimate of costs. The signed 15x10cm Christmas card features a blind stamped "Happy Christmas" greeting. Geoffrey Key: [5 ALS] Five letters by the artist Geoffrey Key. In these exuberant letters to Hanson, Key discusses names for the mailing list and travel to Carlisle; and thanks Neil Hanson - "Many thanks for your card it goes great with my bus pass, Yours antiquatedly, Geoff". Julia Hills: [2 ALS] A brace of letters by the artist Julia Hills, discussing the commission of her dolls and the time frame of work. Melanie Sproat: [2 ALS, 1 exhibition agreement] A collection of letters by the clockmaker Melanie Sproat. In her neat letters, Sproat describes the essence of her work as exploring "the contrasting colour, structure and tactile qualities of precious and base metals", and proposes a wall clock inspired by the rugged Cumbrian landscape. Her second letter concerns damage sustained by her works while in storage. Mike Davis: [1 ALS, 2 TLS] A trio of letters by Mike Davis on Mimram Stained Glass Studio headed notepaper. Davis discusses his proposed exhibits, including a five light window for St John's Church, Digswell. The artist also thanks Neil Hanson for all the hard work put in and suggests "a quieter occupation, wrestling alligators in the Everglades or something". Glyn Hughes: [1 TLS] A letter by the poet and novelist Glyn Hughes, in which he discusses his proposed submissions, describing how he had started to paint again after a break of 20 years; and suggests some commissioned pictures of Cumberland with poems to go with them. David Wright: [3 ALS] A group of letters by David Wright, ex Gregory Fellow in Poetry at Leeds University. Wright writes about the commission and his proposed submissions, including "Procession" and "Mirehouse". He also suggests other artists for the project including William Scammell of Cockermouth. Jon Silkin: [1 ALS; 1ANS; 1 exhibition agreement ] A small collection comprising one letter, one note on a Stand magazine compliments slip, and an exhibition agreement by the poet Jon Silkin made in connection with the exhibition in 1982. In his letter to Hanson, Silkin discusses the commission and his proposed submissions, including "The Church is getting short of Breath". Roy Fisher: [2 ALS] Two letters by Roy Fisher on University of Keele headed notepaper. Fisher's thoughts on his submissions include "The Running Changes" and a piece on "a quest, among desolate military sites and barbed-wire littered beaches, for the shrimping grounds of Flookburgh, but it seemed likely to have strong negative tourist appeal, so I've desisted". Roger Garfitt: [4 ALS] A collection of letters by Roger Garfitt. In these warm and appreciative letters Garfitt discusses his proposed submissions to the exhibition, including 'The Broken Road' as "it's probably the best landscape poem I've done". Garfitt describes his first experience of the Lake District "at the age of twelve, leaning out of a coach window on a day trip, as rapt and enraptured as any Romantic on a walking tour." Paul Joyce: [7 ALS; 4TLS; 2 postcards] A collection of letters by the photographer Paul Joyce. In his letters Joyce writes about his proposed submissions, including a collaboration with the poet Jonathan Williams. Joyce shows concern for the financial aspects of the commission and includes a list of expenses for attending the opening.…
