Book excerpt: A catalogue of an exhibition at the Leeds City Art Galleries, April-June 1987. Pp. 44-48, "The Primitive Within: The Question of Race in Epstein's Career, 1917-1929," by Elizabeth Barker, examines the factor of antisemitism and racial prejudice in the criticism of Jacob Epstein's (1880-1959) sculpture, especially in the period following World War I which saw a rise in antisemitism in Great Britain. Gives examples of references to Epstein's "racial art, " his preference for the primitive, attacks on his art as an example of an international Jewish conspiracy in the arts, and his unsuitability as a Jew to portray Christian themes.

Book excerpt: "Jacob Epstein (1880-1959), though born in New York, was the most important British sculptor of the early twentieth century. Henry Moore is one among many who have acknowledged the positive role he played in their careers. Yet few artists have roused such passionate controversy over their work or suffered so many vociferous attacks from public and critics alike: charges ranged from obscenity and barbarism to belated romanticism. As Moore neatly put it, 'He took the brickbats . . . and as far as sculpture in this century is concerned, he took them first.' Epstein was a modern pioneer of direct carving and one of the first to collect and appreciate the function and form of primitive sculpture. However, as the author demonstrates in her introduction to Epstein's artistic career, critical hostility and the lack of public commissions made carving and collecting increasingly private obsessions, while his income and fame rested on portraiture. At a period when his traditional, humanistic approach was being superseded by new philosophies and new material, Epstein came to be regarded as one of the few sculptors capable of creating a portrait which was far more than a mere likeness. This is the first major critical study and documented catalogue of Epstein's sculpture. His whole output of more than 500 sculptures is described, with supporting information on first exhibitions, provenances, and bibliography. Whenever possible, each entry is accompanied by at least one illustration for reference, while 50 full-page plates evoke the profound spirit of Epstein's best work." -- Publisher's description

Download or read book Jacob Epstein written by Richard Cork and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jacob Epstein (1880-1959) was a pioneer of modern sculpture in Britain. Yet he always felt an outsider in his adopted country, subjected as he was to relentless attacks and vilification. With his determination to break the taboos surrounding the depiction of sexuality, and his use of expressive distortion of the figure in a manner modeled more on non-Western art than the classical ideal, he aroused hostility throughout his career. Such controversy has meant that considerable attention is paid to certain aspects of Epstein's long and productive career, while in other respects the true nature of his overall achievement has been overlooked. This book intends to redress the balance. It provides a fascinating account of a sculptor who had a profound influence on successive generations of artists--not only for his carving but also for his courage.

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.
