Download or read book The King's Artists : The Royal Academy of Arts and the Politics of British Culture 1760-1840 written by Holger Hoock and published by Clarendon Press. This book was released on 2003-11-13 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the story of the forging of a national cultural institution in late eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century Britain. The Royal Academy of Arts was the dominant art school and exhibition society in London and a model for art societies across the British Isles and North America. This is the first study of its early years, re-evaluating the Academy's significance in national cultural life and its profile in an international context. Holger Hoock reassesses royal and state patronage of the arts and explores the concepts and practices of cultural patriotism and the politicization of art during the American and French Revolutions. By demonstrating how the Academy shaped the notions of an English and British school of art and influenced the emergence of the British cultural state, he illuminates the politics of national culture and the character of British public life in an age of war, revolution, and reform.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On the wintry afternoon of Monday 28 November 1768, an architect and three artists were granted an audience with George III at St James's Palace; their mission, the foundation of a royal academy of arts in London. This book, written by Charles Saumarez Smith, the current Secretary and Chief Executive of the Royal Academy, is the first day-by-day account of the events that led up to that meeting and what happened immediately afterwards. In its telling, it reveals the strong personalities involved, the rivalries and intrigues that divided them, the competing ideas about the teaching and exhibition of art, and the problems of governance that forged the Royal Academy, and continue to reverberate within it today, some 250 years later.

Book excerpt: At the beginning of the twenty-first century, the East End of London is the locus for thousands of painters, sculptors, photographers, and printers who have transformed a largely neglected area into a vibrant creative quarter. The migration of artists and galleries to the East End over the last thirty years is only the latest example of the regeneration of a hitherto unpromising part of the city. Throughout the seventeenth, eighteenth, and nineteenth centuries, the City, the fashionable areas of Covent Garden, Hampstead, Kensington, and "Bohemian" Chelsea were all colonized in their turn by artists, reflecting the parallel development of the artist's identity from artisan to respectable gentleman to decadent dandy. The twentieth-century annexation of such previously unprepossessing areas as Camden Town, Bloomsbury, Fitzrovia, and Soho consolidated the Bohemian status of artists. Artists' London explores the complex relationship between artists and the areas of London they inhabit, examining such figures as Hans Holbein, Sir Joshua Reynolds, William Blake, J.M.W. Turner, John Constable, Dante Gabriel Rossetti, James McNeill Whistler, Walter Sickert, Francis Bacon, Damien Hirst, and Tracey Emin.
