Book Description
Though best known for his role at the forefront of the New Sculpture movement, C. J. Allen also spent more than thirty years as a respected and influential teacher at the University of Liverpool and the Liverpool City School of Art. His dual roles as sculptor and teacher enabled him to establish and nurture a tradition of sculptural practice in Liverpool that continues to this day. C. J. Allen 1862-1956 is the richly illustrated catalog to the first-ever retrospective of Allen's work. Considering everything from Allen's best-known piece, Liverpool's Victoria Monument, to his numerous smaller commissions, the essays in this volume reveal the life, work, and legacy of a master sculptor.

"Art in the North of England, 1979?008 "
Author: GabrielN. Gee
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 135157552X
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 464
Book Description
Based on rare archival material and numerous interviews with practitioners, Art in the North of England 1979-2008 analyses the relation between political and economic changes stemming from the 1980s and artistic developments in the principal cities of the North of England in the late 20th century. Looking in particular at the art scenes of Liverpool, Manchester, Leeds, Sheffield and Newcastle, Gabriel Gee unveils a set of powerful aesthetic reactions to industrial change and urban reconstruction during this period on the part of artists including John Davies, Pete Clarke, the Amber collective, Richard Wilson, Karen Watson, Nick Crowe & Ian Rawlinson, John Kippin, and the contribution of organisations such as Projects UK/Locus +, East Street Arts, the Henry Moore Sculpture Trust and the Bluecoat Gallery in Liverpool. While the geographical focus of this study is highly specific, a key concern throughout is the relationship between regional, national and international artistic practices and identities. Of interest to all scholars and students concerned with the developments of British art in the second half of the 20th century, the study is also of direct pertinence to observers of global narratives, which are here described and analysed through the concept of trans-industriality.

Making and Meaning in Insular Art
Author: Rachel Laura Moss
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 384
Book Description
"This collection of papers explores the artistic achievements of Early Medieval Ireland, Scotland, Wales and England and their continued resonance down to the Late Medieval period. Twenty-three interdisciplinary studies focus on a range of subjects from the world-famous Book of Kells to less well-known objects, such as Anglo-Saxon decorated pins. The presentation of recent discoveries and innovative research methodologies shed new light on familiar artworks, while more theoretical deliberations challenge traditional approaches to the study of this area. Almost without exception manuscripts, metalwork, sculpture and architecture are examined against their broader contexts--geographical, historical and cultural--illustrating the complexity of influences that contributed to the making and meaning of Insular art"--Jacket.
