Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marion Harry Alexander Spielmann was born in London on May 22, 1858 into quite a large family. Spielmann attended University College School, and later University College London. Shortly after, he began working for the Pall Mall Gazette, from 1883-1890, where he became a celebrated art critic. He later was the editor of Magazine of Art, founder of Black and White, juror for the 1898 Brussels Fine Art Exhibition, and contributor to many publications, including the Illustrated London News. During a time when Impressionism was gaining popularity, Spielmann inserted himself frequently in debates over aesthetics, and made spaces for debates to brew. Spielmann did not care for modern art and was considered to be a traditionalist. This new edition is dedicated to Michel Langlais de Langlade.

Excerpt: ...achievement, it is easy to see that it is the form and action that interest the artist--the expression of the body, not that of the face. This may be seen by examining his statuettes of male and female figures. They are intensely sculptural in a quattro centist feeling an 1, unlike what is not infrequently the characteristic of the smaller works of smaller men, they never suggest the " ornamental bronze." The daring pose of "Orpheus" expresses the feelings of the music-making beast-charmer better than any face could do. Adapted from the artist's picture with the same motif, this tripping, careless youth steps it amid the beasts he leads with his song, not unconsciously but deliberately. Audacious as it is in arrangement, it is a very perfect piece of modelling of its kind. Similarly, in the beautiful "Fata Morgana," modelled and cast in silver for Mr. Stuart M. Samuel, M.P., the unusually fine type of the girl who sat for it and the effect of her pose have interested the artist vastly more than the face and head. In such a case, it would appear, the sculptor comes forward and the painter recedes. The characteristic of Mr. Swan's work, then, is the fact that he does not force his anatomical knowledge upon the spectator. Indeed, he partially conceals it and, as has been suggested already, he passes from the movement of the animal to the movement of its surface. If this be true, he is herein a disciple of Ruskin, who protested against the over-elaborate study and display of anatomy, which is apt soon to degenerate into posturemaking, and the result of it gives us science rather than art. The artist who knows something of science must forget it when he begins his work, or, like the dead objects of his study, his...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This title was first published 2003. In the twentieth century, Britain was rich in artistic achievement, especially in sculpture. Just some of those working in this field were Jacob Epstein, Henri Gaudier-Brzeska, Henry Moore, Barbara Hepworth, Anthony Caro, Richard Long, Mona Hatoum and Anish Kapoor. The work of these and other known and less well-known artists has an astonishing variety and expressive power, a range and strength that has placed Britain at the hub of the artistic world. Alan Windsor has compiled a concise biographical dictionary of sculpture in Britain in book form. Richly informative and easy-to-use, this guide is an art-lover's and expert's essential reference. Written by scholars, the entries are cross-referenced and each concise biographical outline provides the relevant facts about the artist's life, a brief characterization of the artist's work, and, where appropriate, major bibliographical references.

Book excerpt: This is the most complete volume available on the work of this major British artist. Meadows was for many years the studio assistant of Henry Moore. He first attracted international attention at the 1952 Venice Biennale when his work was exhibited in the British Pavilion, which brought to attention a new style in post-war British sculpture. This collection of the major pieces of sculpture and related drawings spans Meadows's early obsession with fear, in his depiction of frightened birds and frightening animals, to the more sensuous, erotic mood of the work of the late seventies and early eighties.

This book was released on 2005 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Mother Stone Anne Middleton Wagner looks anew at the carvings of the first generation of British modernists, a group centered around Henry Moore, Barbara Hepworth, and Jacob Epstein. Wagner probes the work of these sculptors, discusses their shared avant-garde materialism, and identifies a common theme that runs through their work and that of other artists of the period: maternity. Why were artists for three turbulent decades after the First World War seemingly preoccupied with representations of pregnant women and the mother and child? Why was this the great new subject, especially for sculpture? Why was the imagery of bodily reproduction at the core of the effort to revitalize what in Britain had become a somnolent art? Wagner finds the answers to these questions at the intersection between the politics of maternity and sculptural innovation. She situates British sculpture fully within the new reality of “bio-power”—the realm of Marie Stopes, Brave New World, and Melanie Klein. And in a series of brilliant studies of key works, she offers a radical rereading of this sculpture’s main concerns and formal language.

Download or read book Henry Moore: On Being a Sculptor written by Henry Moore and published by Tate Enterprises Ltd. This book was released on 2013-09-05 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Henry Spencer Moore (1898-1986) was arguably the most influential British sculptor of the twentieth century. Brought up in Castleford in Yorkshire, Moore ended his life completing commissions for large-scale public sculptures in countries around the world. The scale of Moore's success in later life has tended to obscure the radical nature of his achievement. Rejecting the influence of his teachers and inspired by works from other cultures he saw in museums, Moore championed direct carving, evolving abstract sculptures derived from the human body. He was involved in the modernist Seven and Give Society and later in Unit One. Written by Henry Moore in the 1930s, these three powerful, polemical texts lay out his ideas about sculpture, calling for truth to materials, openness to other sculptural traditions and understanding of the importance of scale. Illustrated with archival photographs and with an introduction by his daughter Mary Moore, this book gives new insights into Moore's working methods and inspiration and speaks directly to artists today.
