Download or read book Victoria Crowe written by Victoria Crowe and published by ACC Distribution. This book was released on 2009 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last thirty years Victoria Crowe, one of Scotland's leading painters, has established herself as a painter whose work is instantly recognizable. This book covers her full range - landscape, still lifes, portraits, self portraits and interiors - but much of her work defies such precise categorization. She has been described as one of the most vital and original figurative painters currently at work in Scotland. An essay by art historian and critic Colin Bailey sets her work in context. Then follows a chronological path through her life and work, told in her own highly individual words, but punctuated by the voices of critics. It concludes close in time to where it started, thus forming a cyclical link, a theme that runs as a constant thread throughout the work itself. This is a personal journey spanning over thirty years, in which life events are transmuted into painted images. Since the publication of the first edition of Painted Insights in 2001, Victoria Crowe has received an OBE for Services to Art. The Scottish landscape and the influence of Italy continue to be explored through regular exhibitions of her paintings. A visiting scholarship at St Catherine's College, Cambridge, resulted in a body of work concerned with plant imagery, called Plant Memory, which was exhibited at the Royal Scottish Academy in October 2007. The Millennium exhibition, A Shepherd's Life, is being re-gathered and shown in association with the SNPG at The Fleming Collection, London, January to March 2009. This exhibition will include the tapestry Two Views, commissioned by his Grace the Duke of Buccleuch and woven at the Dovecot Studios, Edinburgh, 2007/08. Concurrently there will be an overview exhibition covering Victoria's work at the Fine Art Society, London. It is planned that the Antique Collector's Club will publish a new book on the artist's work in 2011. 120 colour & 4 b/w illustrations

Book Synopsis What the Victorians Threw Away by : Tom Licence
Download or read book What the Victorians Threw Away written by Tom Licence and published by Oxbow Books. This book was released on 2016-05-31 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The people who lived in England before the First World War now inhabit a realm of yellow photographs. Theirs is a world fast fading from ours, yet they do not appear overly distant. Many of us can remember them as being much like ourselves. Nor is it too late for us to encounter them so intimately that we might catch ourselves worrying that we have invaded their privacy. Digging up their refuse is like peeping through the keyhole. How far off are our grandparents in reality when we can sniff the residues of their perfume, cough medicines, and face cream? If we want to know what they bought in the village store, how they stocked the kitchen cupboard, and how they fed, pampered, and cared for themselves there is no better archive than a rubbish tip within which each object reveals a story. A simple glass bottle can reveal what people were drinking, how a great brand emerged, or whether an inventor triumphed with a new design. An old tin tells us about advertising, household chores, or foreign imports, and even a broken plate can introduce us to the children in the Staffordshire potteries, who painted in the colors of a robin, crudely sketched on a cheap cup and saucer. In this highly readable and delightfully illustrated little book Tom Licence reveals how these everyday minutiae, dug from the ground, contribute to the bigger story of how our great grandparents built a throwaway society from the twin foundations of packaging and mass consumption and illustrates how our own throwaway habits were formed.
