Mark Hearld's Work Book by Simon Martin Pdf

This is the new compact hardcover edition of Mark Hearld's Work Book, the first collection of the artist's beguiling art. The artist Mark Hearld finds his inspiration in the flora and fauna of the British countryside: a blue-eyed jay perched on an oak branch; two hares enjoying the spoils of an allotment; a mute swan standing at the frozen water's edge; and a sleek red fox prowling the fields. Hearld admires such twentieth-century artists as Edward Bawden, John Piper, Eric Ravilious and Enid Marx, and, like them, he chooses to work in a range of media - paint, print, collage, textiles and ceramics. The works are grouped into nature-related themes introduced by Hearld, who narrates the story behind some of his creations and discusses his influences. He explains his particular love of collage, which he favours for its graphic quality and potential for strong composition. Art historian Simon Martin contributes an essay on Hearld's place in the English popular-art tradition, and also meets Hearld in his museum-like home to explore the artist's passion for collecting objects, his working methods and his startling ability to view the wonders of the natural world as if through a child's eyes.

Drawn to Nature by Simon Martin Pdf

The natural world as seen through the eyes of British artists including Eric Ravilious, Clare Leighton, and John Piper Since its publication in 1789, Gilbert White's Natural History and Antiquities of Selborne has inspired generations of artists, writers and naturalists. From Thomas Bewick to Eric Ravilious and Clare Leighton, many artists' depictions of animals, birds and wildlife have illustrated White's celebrated book, together providing a microcosm of natural history illustration from the eighteenth century until today. In Drawn to Nature, Simon Martin has gathered joyful and beautiful images of the extraordinary array of wildlife described by White, providing an insight into the continuing appeal and relevance of the Natural History. This fascinating account takes us from some of the earliest published depictions of birds and animals, to pioneering nature photography, the revival of wood-engraving in the 1920s and 30s, and responses to White's message about the natural world by contemporary illustrators such as Angie Lewin and Emily Sutton. The book also includes an introduction to the life of Gilbert White by Sir David Attenborough, an essay by Virginia Woolf, poems by modern and contemporary poets, and a jacket design by Mark Hearld.

"Remember Those Great Volkswagen Ads?" by Alfredo Marcantonio,David Abbott,John O'Driscoll Pdf

In 1959, Doyle Dane Bernbach, the New York advertising agency was appointed to handle the Volkswagen account in the USA. The advertisements they produced through the sixties and early seventies changed the face of advertising, not just in America but across the world. Remember those great Volkswagen ads? looks briefly at the events surrounding the birth of the campaign and the car, and shows many of the highly acclaimed advertisements produced by the agency. This book has been written and compiled by Alfredo Marcantonio, Copywriter and one-time Advertising Manager of VWGB Ltd, John O?Driscoll, Art Director of many British Volkswagen ads, and David Abott, an ex-Creative and Managing Director of DDB?s London office. They decided to put the book together some 20 years ago as "to let the Beetle and its advertising pass on without a permanent record seemed a crying shame". This book is a story of the car and its advertising. In a unique way the two were indistinguishable ? the charming, honest advertising became part of the charm and honesty of the car. If you ever owned a Beetle, if you?ve ever chuckled at a Volkswagen advertisement, or if you simply appreciate wit and style, you will enjoy this book. It?s the tale of an ugly duckling that became an office pin-up.

An Alphabet of London by Christopher Brown Pdf

London is the only city in the world where you could ever find Gilbert and George sharing space with the Gherkin and the Globe while the Great Fire burns and a gin drinker glugs her favorite tipple, and where members of the Bloomsbury Group hail a black cab while barrage balloons hover over Broadcasting House during the Blitz. In An Alphabet of London, Christoper Brown presents a series of wonderfully whimsical linocuts illustrating every aspect of London past and present, including personalities, buildings, monuments, legends, historic events, and other metropolitan icons. From Dickens, Dr Johnson, Tower Bridge and the Shard to the Diamond Jubilee, Wimbledon, pigeons, and jellied eels, all London life is here. A born-and-bred Londoner, Brown recounts his own memories of growing up in the capital, and also describes how he creates his distinctive prints. His unique, often humorous take on London will delight anyone who lives in or visits the city.

Today, Louise's name is synonymous with relaxed luxury, and she has designed significant residential projects across the globe.

The featured homes include historic London townhouses, a lofty apartment, sophisticated pieds-à-terre, an Edwardian country house, opulent villas in Kuwait and an Alpine ski chalet, as well as Louise's own homes - an oasis of calm in the city and a cosy country retreat.

Planet of the Knob-Heads and Out of the Void by Stanton A. Coblentz,Leslie F. Stone Pdf

Armchair Fiction presents extra-large editions of classic science fiction double novels, complete with original illustrations. The first novel is Stanton Coblentz's "Planet of the Knob-heads." Newlyweds Jack and Marjorie Wainright were two of the brightest stars in the scientific world. They had it all--youth, success, and the respect of their peers. Then one evening at home they stumbled onto an amazing sight. As they looked through their telescopic reflector into the night sky, they were astonished to see a spaceship descending toward Earth! Soon the Wainrights were in search of the landing site of the mysterious alien spacecraft. They found it in the wilds of Equatorial West Africa. There the Wainrights met the knob-heads of Uuleppe--a planet near Andromeda. Unfortunately these strange visitors repaid their hosts' kindness by kidnapping and whisking them across the void. Treated as "specimens of Earth fauna," the Wainrights faced a seemingly hopeless struggle on an alien planet, with little chance of ever returning to Earth. The second novel is straight from the pages of Amazing Stories, "Out of the Void" by Leslie F. Stone. One evening as he was driving to his remote mountain lodge for a weekend fishing trip, Wall Street journeyman Carl Wooten saw something very odd. It was an ominous flash of light somewhere in the woods beyond his lodge. After entering, Wooten found the strangest of things...a beautiful ruby sitting on his dressing table, seemingly put there in payment for numerous articles of his clothing that were now missing. Upon investigating the next morning, Wooten made a discovery that would rock his senses. Sitting in a nearby meadow, in plain sight, was an enormous spaceship--the likes of which could not possibly have been made by anyone on Earth. Moments later, Wooten found himself a prisoner--captured by two humanoid creatures clearly not of Earthen origin. And before long Carl Wooten was drawn into the incredible story of an aging professor, two daring adventurers, and a rocket flight beyond the edge of the Solar System...

Benjamin West and the Struggle to be Modern by Loyd Grossman Pdf

At the time of his death in 1820, Benjamin West was the most famous artist in the English-speaking world, and much admired throughout Europe. From humble beginnings in Pennsylvania, he had become the first American artist to study in Italy, and within a few short years of his arrival in London, was instrumental in the foundation of the Royal Academy of Arts (he succeeded Sir Joshua Reynolds to become its second President) and became history painter to King George III. In his lifetime, West's meteoric rise to prominence and the great pleasure he took in his success attracted criticism, and his posthumous reputation took a savage mauling from Victorian critics, one of whom dubbed him 'The Monarch of Mediocrity'. But even at his critical nadir, West's most celebrated work, The Death of General Wolfe, commemorating the British victory at the Battle of Quebec in 1759 and first exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1771, continued to fascinate. Although it was not, as is sometimes claimed, the first history painting to feature contemporary costume, it was the first picture in such a vein to become a critical and popular success in Britain. West remains today the most neglected and misunderstood of Britain's great eighteenth-century artists, lacking the social bite of Hogarth, the bravura of Reynolds or the easy elegance of Gainsborough. Nor was he a forceful writer (unlike Hogarth and Reynolds), and he did not possess the intellectual credentials to which so many of his fellow artists aspired. And yet, as Loyd Grossman asserts in his new book, West was extraordinarily in tune with the artistic and intellectual currents that swirled through his turbulent times. He was in the vanguard of both Neoclassicism and Romanticism, and among the very first artists to give visual expression to the exciting and heroic qualities of contemporary events, as opposed to episodes dredged up from the biblical, classical or mythological past, which had long enjoyed the highest artistic status. West's Wolfe was painted at a time when Europeans were just beginning to abandon the tendency to look backwards. Men and women of letters, philosophers and historians were increasingly convinced that modernity could equal and even surpass the achievements of the ancient Greeks and Romans. This new-found ability to believe in the value of the present and to look forward to a progressive future is very much the foundation of the 'modern' attitude that has affected the way we live and think ever since. While acknowledging that West's reputation is still precarious, Grossman explains why Wolfe was such an instant success and why this thrilling work of art continues to exercise such a strong grip on our imaginations nearly 250 years after it was first shown to the public. He situates West in the midst of Enlightenment thinking about history and modernity, and seeks to demolish some of the prejudices about the talent and intentions of the young man from the Pennsylvania frontier who attained such eminence at the British court.
