Profusely illustrated. *** "John Singleton Copley is well known in America as the creator of the finest portraits of the Colonial era. Less well known is the fact that he left America in 1774, when the impending armed struggle between the Colonies and England threatened to destroy his livelihood, and settled in London to pit himself ambitiously against the Old Masters and the English giants of the day. Copley's English career was long and brilliant - and represents the most important period of his working life. During the forty-one years he spent in England, Copley created his great masterpieces of history painting and portraiture that stand as key monuments of British painting. From the earliest days of his career in London Copley realized that he would have to do everything possible to stand out in a crowded field of painters and create works that would bring him instant notice. This he did with his first great English picture, The Copley Family (1776-77) and, even more dramatically, with the landmark Watson and the Shark (1778). He quickly mastered the elements of the fashionable English style of painting, exchanging the tight and linear handling of the Colonial period for one more fluid and expressive. By the 1780s Copley was reckoned one of the most important painters working in England, a clear rival to his compatriot Benjamin West. With his masterpiece, The Death of Major Pierson (1784), Copley assumed a place of primacy in the field of history painting. While William L. Pressly gives a balanced, up-to-date exposition of Copley's English career, Emily Ballew Neff examines his masterpiece, The Death of Major Pierson, in particular detail, and is the author of the catalogue of his major English works. This is a long overdue study of this important painter." - Publisher. Size: 4to.…

Paperback. Condizione: Fine. 1st. 96 pages, colour illustrations; 28 cm. Catalogue of an exhibition held at the McMullen Museum of Art, Boston College, October 3 to December 12, 1999; and other venues. Firm binding, clean inside copy. Richly illustrated with colour plates. *** "Reflecting the seismic changes in Ireland's political, social, economic, and cultural realities of the 1990s, contemporary Irish artists have begun to redefine identities, raising questions about the relationships between male and female, urban and rural, North and South, history and the present. The struggle over identities, which used to marginalize Ireland and societies like it, has now become central to debates around the globe. This strikingly illustrated book presents a reading of Irish art in the 1990s and examines the repositioning of Irish identity in works drawn primarily from the collection of the Irish Museum of Modern Art, Dublin. The artists examined, including Kathy Prendergast, Willie Doherty, and Alice Maher, have initiated a dialogue with their own society and others beyond Ireland, using painting, photography, sculpture, video, and installation to explore subjects ranging from the personal and poetic to the political. Their concerns - and the way they are conveyed through non-traditional materials and new interpretations of more conventional media - link these works to new art being made elsewhere in the world. This publication accompanies an exhibition touring the United States and Canada." - Publisher. *** CONTENTS: Renegotiating the given, by Decla McGonagle; Ireland, by Fintan O'Toole; Poetics, politics, and Irish art: thirteen questions, by Kim Levin. *** Includes: Dorothy Cross - Willie Doherty - Mark Francis - Ciaran Lennon - Alice Maher - Caroline McCarthy - Fionnuala Ni Chiosain - Abigail O'Brien - Maurice O'Connell - Alanna O'Kelly - Kathy Prendergast - Billy Quinn - Paul Seawright.

PROLIFICALLY ILLUSTRATED in full color photography of Wallis' and Dixon's paintings with accompanying descriptive captions. "Both artists were self-taught and their painting haa been described as 'primitive'. This book aims to open up this definition of their work, which has led to a limited analysis of the range and depth of their painting.

They also developed striking and unique uses of paint and complex compositions within their work." 128 pages. LBCMA2.…

Firm binding, clean inside copy. *** "The death of the great poet-patriot Victor Hugo (1802-1885) stimulated the French government to transform the Pantheon in Paris into a republican hall of fame. It was to include a monument to Victor Hugo, who had carried the spirit of the French Revolution into the nineteenth century. The artist chosen was the master sculptor Auguste Rodin (1840-1917), who valued the commision above all others that he received. The story of the monument's development, which is compellingly told in this thoroughly researched catalogue, is a long and turbulent one, marked by political disagreement, the complex history of the Pantheon, and the drama of Rodin's relationships with his fellow artists and others. It was not until 1964 that the first bronze cast of Rodin's Monument to Victor Hugo was made, a majestic work based on the plaster that originated in 1897 and intended for a permanent setting at a busy street intersection in Paris. The same plaster group also served as the basis for the second bronze cast, commissioned in 1995 by the late B. Gerald Cantor, the pre-eminent collector and proponent of Rodin in the United States in the second half of the twentieth century. This major traveling exhibition and accompanying catalogue, both prepared by the Iris and B. Gerald Cantor Foundation as part of their ongoing mission to bring the work of Rodin to a broader public, present over twenty sculptures by the artist, as well as works on paper." - Publisher. *** CONTENTS: Rodin's Victor Hugo monument, by Ruth Butler; Rodin's Victor Hugo, by Jeanine Parisier Plottel; Steichen's choice, by Jane Mayo Roos.
