Book Synopsis Catching Sight by : Virginia Museum of Fine Arts
Download or read book Catching Sight written by Virginia Museum of Fine Arts and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection sheds new light on a common but often overlooked contribution of British art: the sporting print. Highly sought after during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, these prints endure today as vivid, direct, and even witty symbols of English culture. Catching Sight features more than eighty prints and three essays that go beyond the symbolism to examine these works from both art-historical and social perspectives. Malcolm Cormack details the production and sale of sporting prints; Mitchell Merling explores the aesthetic implications of the sophisticated visual languages employed by sporting artists; and Corey Piper analyzes the meaning of the prints in the larger context of late eighteenth- and nineteenth-century rural society. Distributed for the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts

This book was released on 2015-06-30 with total page 454 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from British Sporting Artists From Barlow to Herring It is with more than usual pleasure that I commend to the English-speaking world the very remarkable book in which these lines are granted a place of honour; for it accomplishes, far better than I ever dreamt, a vision I had long cherished, an ideal I have inevitably postponed, and it will be warmly welcomed on each side of the Atlantic. Now that Charles Furse is dead, there is hardly a first-rate artist living, except Alfred Munnings, whose appreciation of the infinite possibilities of sport in art has been translated into such paintings as may be found among the best of the old masters in this volume. The portrait of the Prince of Wales on Forest Witch rightly deserved its special place in last year's Royal Academy, because Mr. Munnings had not only achieved a first-rate work of modern art, but had recalled the best traditions of the old sporting artist. What these traditions mean Mr. Shaw Sparrow has explained in the first pages of their kind which have ever - to my knowledge - begun to do justice to their subject; and I know most of them. What a subject it is! The best of English open-air life is portrayed by men who knew it well because they shared in it. If we only considered it as a record of two and a half centuries of England, it would be invaluable. But as a collection of actual examples, reproduced, it stands 3lonc in its contribution to our knowledge of a splendid company of painters. Any previous verdicts on Tillemans or Barlow (to take only two instances) will be transfigured by Mr. Shaw Sparrow's industry and taste. I have not merely admired his selection of pictures, I have read his text, and it is with full responsibility that I can commend both to his readers. I only hope they may leave me some small share of their gratitude. There arc pictures here which have never been reproduced before, and others which - by the new colour-processes employed - will make a brighter appeal than has ever been possible in works of this kind.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This roll-call of British artists confirms the dominance and excellence of British art across five centuries, from Blake to Banksy , Turner to Tracey Emin. This highly readable and informative collection of the best of British art showcases magnificent portraits by Thomas Gainsborough and Stanley Spencer; landscapes by J. M. W. Turner and David Hockney; satire by William Hogarth and Gilbert & George; sculpture by Henry Moore and Rachel Whiteread; and the latest works by Grayson Perry and Damien Hirst. Each artist is presented in a double-page spread that features a major work, details from the work, a brief biography and fascinating insights into the artist's life and times. Lucinda Hawksley's engaging survey compares the skill of the Elizabethan miniaturists and the magnificence of the High Victorians with the grit of post-war British modernists and the best of the Young British Artists, whose fearless approach to controversial themes make them worthy inheritors of the great traditions of British art. AUTHOR: Lucinda Hawksley is the author of numerous books on art, literature and British history, including 'Lizzie Siddal: The Tragedy of a Pre-Raphaelite Supermodel', 'Katey: The Life and Loves of Dickens's Artist Daughter' and 'The Secret History of Art'.

Book excerpt: Sport heritage is increasingly being recognised as a potent instigator of tourism; be it touring a historic stadium, visiting a sports hall of fame, or participating in a sport fantasy camp, tourists now have a vast array of locations and options to experience the sporting past. This book provides the first comprehensive resource on sport heritage as a tourist attraction. Using theoretical and applied studies from researchers in the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Canada, the United States, Australia, and New Zealand, this book finds that the sporting past is a key component in tourism’s future. The convergence of heritage, sport and tourism involves many different and diverse fields, including sport tourism, heritage tourism, sport management, and sports geography. This book will serve the needs of students, researchers, industry practitioners in these fields, as well as those interested in sport heritage as a tourist attraction. This book was first published as a special issue of the Journal of Sport Tourism.

Book Synopsis British Sporting Literature and Culture in the Long Eighteenth Century by : Sharon Harrow
Download or read book British Sporting Literature and Culture in the Long Eighteenth Century written by Sharon Harrow and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-09 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sport as it is largely understood today was invented during the long eighteenth century when the modern rules of sport were codified; sport emerged as a business, a spectacle, and a performance; and gaming organized itself around sporting culture. Examining the underexplored intersection of sport, literature, and culture, this collection situates sport within multiple contexts, including religion, labor, leisure time, politics, nationalism, gender, play, and science. A poetics, literature, and culture of sport swelled during the era, influencing artists such as John Collett and writers including Lord Byron, Jonathan Swift, and Henry Fielding. This volume brings together literary scholars and historians of sport to demonstrate the ubiquity of sport to eighteenth-century life, the variety of literary and cultural representations of sporting experiences, and the evolution of sport from rural pastimes to organized, regular events of national and international importance. Each essay offers in-depth readings of both material practices and representations of sport as they relate to, among other subjects, recreational sports, the Cotswold games, clothing, women archers, tennis, celebrity athletes, and the theatricality of boxing. Taken together, the essays in this collection offer valuable multiple perspectives on reading sport during the century when sport became modern.
