Book Synopsis "William Reid Dick, Sculptor " by : Dennis Wardleworth
Download or read book "William Reid Dick, Sculptor " written by Dennis Wardleworth and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 341 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: William Reid Dick (1878-1961) was one of a generation of British sculptors air-brushed out of art history by the Modernist critics of the late twentieth century. This long-overdue monograph adds to the recent revival of interest in this group of forgotten sculptors, by describing the life and work of arguably the leading figure of the group in unprecedented depth. The facts of Reid Dick's life and his most important works are presented against a backdrop of the historical, social and aesthetic changes taking place during his lifetime. Dennis Wardleworth elucidates why Reid Dick's reputation plummeted so quickly, and why his position in the history of British art deserves to be restored. This study draws upon a wealth of previously unpublished material, including over 2000 letters, and press cuttings and photographs in the Tate Archive, as well as letters and photographs held by Reid Dick's family. It traces the sculptor's story from his birth in the Gorbals in Glasgow, to his election to the Royal Academy and knighting by George V, to the decline of his career and his late-life connection with American millionaire and art collector Huntington Hartford. The first monograph on Reid Dick since 1945, the book also includes images of over 40 of his works and a listing of over 200 works identified by the author.

Download or read book Bill Reid written by Karen Duffek and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 1986 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: According to eminent French anthropologist Levi-Strauss, Reid "brought Northwest Coast art to the world scene, into dialogue with the whole of mankind." In this artistic biography, Karen Duffek gives an account of Bill Reid's life and work and of his role as artist, innovator, and ambassador of Haida art. After describing the processes by which Reid came to reconstruct the formal rules of a complex artistic tradition, Duffek focuses on his mastery of new techniques, particularly in making jewellery, techniques which others now emulate. In the key chapter "Beyond the Essential Form," she uses Reid's own categories of his work as "copies, adaptations and explorations," to give a candid appraisal of his artistic achievements -- from massive poles to gold boxes, from intricate bracelets to the great bronze Killerwhale statue.

Book Synopsis British Sculpture 1470 to 2000 by : Diane Bilbey
Download or read book British Sculpture 1470 to 2000 written by Diane Bilbey and published by Victoria & Albert Museum. This book was released on 2002-11 with total page 548 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The unrivaled collection of post-medieval British sculpture in the Victoria and Albert Museum is here catalogued and illustrated for the first time. Its great strengths lie in the works from the 17th, 18th, and 19th centuries, and virtually every major sculptor active during this period is represented -- among them Nicholas Stone, John Michael Rysbrack, Louis Francois Roubiliac, Joseph Wilton, John Flaxman, and Alfred Stevens. A total of 770 pieces by 189 sculptors are included, more than a third of which have never been published before. The catalogue, wide-ranging and scholarly, will serve both as an invaluable work of reference, and in effect a history of the great tradition of sculpture in Britain.

Book Synopsis Cottages and Villas by : Mireille Galinou
Download or read book Cottages and Villas written by Mireille Galinou and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 556 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The garden suburb has its origins in London, and, contrary to widespread belief, its earliest phase took place not at the beginning of the 20th century, with the much discussed garden-city movement, but one century earlier, with the creation of the Eyre brothers' villa estate in the London suburb of St. John's Wood. This fascinating book gives the first detailed, accurate and well-illustrated account of the Eyre Estate. It provides the missing link in the history of British suburbs. Drawing on the resources of the newly catalogued Eyre archive, it offers an authoritative interpretation of the development and management of this pioneering estate from the eighteenth century onwards."--Dust jacket.
