A beautifully illustrated exploration of the artistic and personal connections between Matthew Wong (1984–2019) and Vincent van Gogh. Shortly before his early death, the Chinese-Canadian artist Matthew Wong (1984–2019) emerged as a phenomenon. He started drawing and painting in 2011, at the age of 27, and within the space of just a few years had developed a highly personal style, using intense colours to paint imaginative landscapes.Wong’s expressively lyrical works were inspired by both traditional Chinese painting and Western art. He was especially influenced by Vincent van Gogh (1853–1890), not only in terms of his painting style and choice of motifs, but also in some aspects of his life. Both artists were self-taught, acquiring their drawing and painting skills without tuition, and both faced mental health issues.Wong saw his own life reflected in that of Van Gogh, and once said: ‘I see myself in him. The impossibility of belonging in this world.’ Published to accompany the exhibition at the Van Gogh Museum, Amsterdam, this book explores the artistic and personal connection between the two artists, bringing around 45 paintings and drawings by Wong into dialogue with a group of Van Gogh masterpieces. Kenny Schachter, who knew Matthew Wong, contributes a personal introduction, which is followed by essays exploring the artists’ biographical and artistic kinship.

Everyday Sketching and Drawing offers an easy-to-follow, 5-step formula, which teaches beginner-friendly techniques for learning the skills necessary to make drawing and sketching an everyday habit.For those who have always wanted to or tried and failed to learn to draw it provides simple step-by-step instruction, plus easy-to-follow practice exercises, and provides the motivation and inspiration readers need to be successful.For those who already draw, Everyday Sketching and Drawing offers another technique to add to their drawing arsenal. Why do so many adults come to view drawing as difficult or fraught with anxiety? Traditional art instruction is often bogged down with jargon, rules, and admonishments that unintentionally stifle the joy of drawing for its own sake.Steven Reddy s new and easy approach to drawing instructs sketchers to document their unique and compelling lives in realistic yet playful sketches that record the places, spaces, and objects that help define them as individuals. He reminds artists to slow down, notice, and attend to the sketch-worthy scenes and subjects that are unstaged and always there in our everyday lives. He offers a versatile technique that can lead to a skill that fills sketchbooks with the visual details that differentiate one life from another. This approach is a meditative, relaxing alternative to academic concerns about perspective, proportion, and accuracy.Reddy encourages artists to capture in whimsical but detail-specific illustrations their unique, subjective interpretation of their visual surroundings. Steven Reddy s drawing method produces extremely detailed and realistic scenes of objects and scenes in everyday life in a relatively short period of time (60 minutes to 3 hours or more, depending on the sketcher s preference). Modifying a technique utilized by Old Master oil painters, the drawings pass through 5 clearly articulated stages where each step focuses on one visual concept at a time.

A new edition of Sue Tilley’s classic biography of the man described by Boy George as ‘modern art on legs’, updated to include never-before-seen photographs and a new chapter reflecting on Bowery’s legacy. From his arrival in London in 1980, clutching a suitcase and sewing machine, to his death from AIDS in 1994, artist, performer, musician, club promoter and fashion designer Leigh Bowery led an extraordinary life. Chronicled here with candid wit and affection, Leigh’s closest confidante Sue Tilley describes her best friend’s journey as a creative young gay kid growing up in the Melbourne suburbs who burst onto the vibrant London club scene of the 1980s and changed it forever.Brilliantly evoking the hedonistic energy of the city, Tilley’s personal account of her life with Leigh – their best mates, holidays, clubbing, drugs, outfits, flatmates and sex lives – paints a vivid picture of 80s pop culture through their friendship and love of a good time. She also offers irreverent anecdotes of the London art world, and particularly of Leigh’s close relationship with Lucian Freud, who painted Leigh many times from 1990 onwards; and concludes with a poignant and unsentimental recollection of Leigh’s final days in hospital. Written with the full co-operation of his family and friends, including Charles Atlas, Rachel Auburn, Michael Clark, Lucian Freud, Jeffrey Hinton, Damien Hirst, Princess Julia, Cerith Wyn Evans and Baillie Walsh.

Fundamental Painting (1975): Lessons in Minimalist Painting is the first account of this 1970s current and its role in the history of 20th century painting. The term Fundamental Painting was coined by the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam as the title of a 1975 exhibition that sought to highlight a new kind of painting emerging on both sides of the Atlantic. It was built around Robert Ryman and included 18 artists from Europe and the United States. The then museum director of the Stedelijk Edy de Wilde called their artistic scope a reflection on the foundations of painting. In the first part of this book, Rajlich traces how the curators defined this specific current and its public as well as its critical reception. In the second part, she explains in detail the elements of paintings, how they are used in Fundamental Painting, and why. Next, Rajlich surveys the use of these painterly elements across 20th century abstract and non-objective painting in relation to the development of Minimalist painting. The last part of this book examines the effect of Fundamental Painting on its viewer in the context of art across the ages. It argues that Fundamental Painting goes beyond formalist concerns and seeks to engage with the concept of beauty as understood through the philosophy of aesthetics. Claudia Rajlich is a specialist in 20th century art and painting in general. She has extensive experience as an author, curator and art advisor for both public and private institutions. Her recent research has focused on non-objective art, the art market, and interdisciplinary questions around art collecting. Kniha Fundamental Painting (1975): Lessons in Minimalist Painting přináší první ucelené pojednání o fundamentální malbě a její roli v dějinách malířství 20. století. Termín fundamentální malba vytvořilo amsterdamské Stedelijk Museum a v roce 1975 jej použilo pro název výstavy, která se snažila upozornit na nový druh malby vznikající na obou stranách Atlantiku. Výstava představila 18 umělců z Evropy a ze Spojených států, včetně zakladatelské osobnosti Roberta Rymana. Tehdejší ředitel muzea Edy de Wilde označil jejich umělecké směřování jako reflexi základů malby . V první části knihy sleduje Claudia Rajlich, jak kurátoři definovali tento specifický proud a jak jej přijala kritická obec i veřejnost, ve druhé části pak autorka podrobně popisuje jednotlivé prvky obrazů a vysvětluje, jak je fundamentální malba používá a proč. Následně také zkoumá použití těchto malířských prvků v abstraktním a neobjektivním malířství 20. století ve vztahu k vývoji minimalistické malby. Závěr knihy je věnován působení fundamentální malby na diváka v kontextu umění v průběhu staletí. Autorka se domnívá, že tento druh malby překračuje rámec formalistických vymezení a že je významně provázán s konceptem krásy, jak jej chápe filozofie estetiky. Claudia Rajlich se specializuje na výtvarné umění 20. století, zejména na malbu. Má bohaté zkušenosti jako autorka, kurátorka a umělecká poradkyně pro veřejné i soukromé instituce. Aktuálně se zabývá neobjektivním uměním, trhem s uměním a interdisciplinárními otázkami, které se týkají sbírání umění.

At 7.15pm on Sunday August 29th 1819, the village of Ashow, Warwickshire was shook to its core by a young girl s scream at Dial House Farm. Thirteen-year-old Mary Dormer found her mother, Sarah Dormer s, slain body lying in Sarah s bedroom.Sarah s 21-year-old maidservant, Ms Ann Heytrey was charged, arrested, and imprisoned at the County Town Gaol at Warwick, where she would remain until the following year when she was tried at Warwick Assizes for Sarah s murder. After being found guilty, Ann was publicly hanged two days after outside of Warwick Gaol, the last woman to be publicly executed at Warwick. After being cut down, her lifeless body was taken to nearby Kenilworth where she was dissected that evening in the back garden of the local Surgeon.This is the first book ever to be dedicated to reinvestigating the truth, of what really happened on that fateful evening which led to a 59-year old woman to be almost decapitated in her own home, and if Ms Heytrey was really guilty of such a crime. David John Eason explores the family s history, as well as all those involved in the case and trial and the social events of that time, including the massacre at St Peter s Field (Peterloo) in Manchester, which occurred only thirteen days prior to Sarah s apparently unmotivated murder.

A Daily Mail Best History Book of the Year; A Spectator Best Book of the YearIt is generally accepted that Queen Victoria reigned but did not rule. This couldnâ ™t be more wrong.In Queen Victoria and Her Prime Ministers, Anne Somerset masterfully traces Victoriaâ ™s political evolution, from headstrong teenager to seasoned octogenarian. This book demonstrates her passionate involvement in state affairs, and casts fresh light on her relationships with her ten prime ministers.Victoria herself acknowledged that when it came to â ˜likes and dislikesâ ™ of her prime ministers, â ˜she had them very stronglyâ ™. She showed girlish adoration for her first Prime Minister, the worldly-wise Lord Melbourne, whose delightful conversation and kindly guidance enchanted her. Later in her reign, Benjamin Disraeli â “ who flattered her shamelessly, tirelessly praising her sagacity and judgement and filling her life with â ˜poetry, romance and chivalryâ ™ â “ became her favourite.While she developed a powerful bond with several of her Prime Ministers, in other cases the relationship fell little short of mutual detestation. Victoriaâ ™s keenest antipathy was reserved for Disraeliâ ™s great rival, the Liberal William Gladstone. When he became prime minister for a fourth time at the age of 82, Victoria declared it â ˜a bad jokeâ ™ that this â ˜dangerous old fanaticâ ™ should be â ˜thrust down her throatâ ™.Queen Victoria and Her Prime Ministers charts the bitter clashes and affectionate interactions Victoria had with her ten premiers in often hilarious detail. Drawing extensively on unpublished sources such as material from the Royal Archives and never-before-seen prime ministerial papers, it casts a fresh and highly illuminating perspective not just on Victoria, but on the exceptionally able politicians who served her in government.

But there are many communities who have survived beyond the environmental destruction wrought on them by colonialism – and they hold the solutions for climate repair.Using the Caribbean as a case study, Tao Leigh Goffe traces the vibrant and complex history of the islands back to 1492 and the arrival of Christopher Columbus when the Caribbean became the subject of Western exploitation. Charting the human and ecological forces that have shaped the islands, Goffe examines the legacy of fierce warrior Queen Nanny of the Maroons, engages in pressing cultural debate about stolen artefacts and human remains which are kept hidden in museum archives, and visits Indigenous farming cooperatives who are using ancestral knowledge to rebuild their communities. Using the Caribbean as a both a warning and a guide, Dark Laboratory takes hopeful and galvanizing teachings from the islands communities to offer illuminating solutions to the ecological crisis.From guano to sugarcane, coral bleaching to invasive mongoose populations, Dark Laboratory is a lyrical, vibrant and urgent investigation into the greatest threat facing humanity.

Mad about Painting collects beautiful new translations of Hokusai’s painting tutorials and related essays written by the artist and his peers—a selection made available in English for the first time. Even the most technical corners of art history can awe. From the reliably excellent “ekphrasis” series at David Zwirner, this pocket paperback humanizes a forbiddingly mythical figure, the Japanese printmaker Katsushika Hokusai. Newly collected and translated here, the painting manuals he dictated near his death in 1849 (dictated, as Hokusai was not literate) contain, despite their strict instructional nature, surprising delights... —The New York Times Best known for his iconic print Under the Wave off Kanagawa, also known as the Great Wave, Katsushika Hokusai was a revolutionary printmaker. His mastery of ukiyo-e in the nineteenth century has inspired generations of artists since, and his works helped introduce the world to the delicate beauty and power of the Japanese woodblock technique. In addition to his remarkable artistic output, Hokusai was also a dedicated teacher who sought to pass down his unique understanding of color and painting to practicing artists through immensely detailed written tutorials and manuals, many of which are excerpted here, in English, for the first time. Connecting Hokusai’s prints from the Edo period to contemporary Japanese art, the scholar Ryoko Matsuba’s introduction foregrounds Hokusai’s contributions to Japanese creative expression from the 1800s to today. Also included in this book is the contemporary artist Ikeda Manabu’s concise observations about Hokusai’s lasting influence. This volume offers invaluable insight into the psyche of a true master, and a rare personal account of an artist’s life during a fascinating period in Japan’s history.
