Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. With his fiercely unsophisticated paintings the near illiterate mariner Alfred Wallis became the unlikely darling of the 1930s modernists grouped around Ben Nicholson, while Bryan Pearce's serene, naively crafted depictions of St Ives have also taken their place in the pantheon of twentieth century British art. A chapter on the self-taught Mary Jewels throws new light on the life of a much neglected artist, first encouraged by Cedric Morris and later collected by Augustus John. The survey concludes with brief profiles of a dozen other artists whose individual visions have enriched the life of this celebrated artists' community.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. John Edgar Platt was one of the leading lights of 1920s and 1930s printmaking. This is the first book to consider his place in British 20th century printmaking and investigate the influence of Japanese woodblock printing on the output of Platt and his contemporaries. It features colour illustrations of all his printed work and two essays by print expert Hilary Chapman.A master of the colour woodblock print in the Japanese style, Platt combined eastern technique with a western design sensibility. His use of bold colour inspired one critic to praise the 'gamut of singing hues' found in his prints. Fellow colour woodblock artist Allen Seaby acknowledged that There is no doubt that in your hands the wood print has been raised far above its former status.The fusion of traditional European subject matter with the Japanese woodblock method enabled Platt to create some of the most original images in British printmaking. He found subjects to inspire him among the harbours and fishing boats of Cornwall and Devon and in warmer climes at St Tropez. During the 1930s he adopted a spare style based on blocks of flat colour to create strikingly modern works including Horse (1934), Lapwings (1936) and his masterpiece the triptych The Plough (1937). First book about this printmaker John Edgar Platt. Considers his place in British 20th century printmaking and investigates the influence of Japanese woodblock printing.

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Using both words and images author, Gill Clarke tracks the genesis of the Women's Land Army in the First World War through to its re-formation in the Second World War and final disbandment in 1950. This is the first study to make extensive use of paintings by distinguished and lesser-known artists, together with recruitment posters, cartoons and photographs from both World Wars to portray the life and work of the Women's Land Army. Theirs is something of a forgotten history. Yet, the work these women did on the land often in terrible conditions was vital to the success of the war effort. They played a crucial part in increasing levels of productivity from the land in both World Wars. Drawing on published autobiographies and recent interviews by the author with Land Girls in the Second World War, this book tells their story and those of the artists and illustrators who recorded their heroic work. The book is divided into three illustrated sections - Holding the Home Front: The Women's Land Army in the First World War; Back to the Land: The Women's Land Army in the Second World War; and, Recording Life on the Land: Portraits of the Artists and Illustrators. This book is profusely illustrated, with many iconic images being published here for the first time. It is published to coincide with a unique exhibition devoted to the Women's Land Army at St Barbe Gallery, Lymington in October 2008. The publication follows renewed interest in twentieth-century British art. It is published in the year that the Women's Land Army veterans are officially honoured by the Government and awarded a badge to recognise their efforts. This book will appeal not only to former Land Army Girls and their families, but to a varied audience including students, researchers and scholars of art, social and cultural history and biographical studies. In addition it will appeal to those with an interest in the connections between biography and art. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. In the 1960s Tim Scott tested the limits of what a sculpture could be. Visionary and audacious, his large-scale constructions radically transformed the inheritance of Constantin Brancusi and Henri Matisse. How spatially expansive could sculpture become whilst retaining its identity as sculpture? Could sculpture incorporate colour and translucency, without abandoning a sense of mass and density? Scott explored these questions in materials new to sculpture including plywood, fibreglass, steel, aluminium, perspex and latex foam. This publication provides succinct commentaries on ten key sculptures by Scott, along with an introduction by his contemporary William Tucker. AUTHOR: Sam Cornish is a writer and curator. His publications include Frank Bowling: Sculpture (Ridinghouse, 2022), John Hoyland: The Last Paintings (Ridinghouse, 2021), Mali Morris: Painting (Royal Academy, 2019), Stockwell Depot 1967-79 (Ridinghouse, 2015), John Panting: Sculpture (Sansom & Co, 2012) and Robert Motherwell: Drawings (Bernard Jacobson Gallery, 2011).

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. In this lavishly illustrated book, artist Arthur Lockwood celebrates 20 years of painting change in the industrial landscapes of Birmingham and the Black Country. He has produced an elegy for a lost way of life, without pathos or bitterness but with realism. Without making judgements, Arthur Lockwood has dedicated himself to recording the demolition of nineteenth-century buildings and the construction of new landmarks such as the Bull Ring Shopping Centre in Birmingham. Alongside this, he set out to document the decline of the region's manufacturing, painting working factories and foundries before many were closed down and some of them demolished.In "Oldbury" he recorded the last line of working drop hammers and in Wolverhampton the last manufacturer of tacks and cut nails. In "Birmingham" he painted the last drop forge in the city. The book contains over 100 paintings selected from twenty years' work. Brendan Flynn, Curator of Fine Art at Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery, has written an introduction, noting that 'In capturing the process of change, Lockwood slows it down for us and offers an overview of the economic and social forces at large in the urban landscape. His drawings are probably the most searching examination in the visual arts of any urban landscape in Britain.'. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition.
