BOOK REVIEW: COLLAGE MACABRE, AN ANTHOLOGY OF ART HORROR
Tumblr media
by Elizabeth Broadbent, Staff Writer.
How did these people scare me so bad with paint? 
Truth: I once lived in a dorm so artsy they called us the Cereal Bowl (‘cause we were “the flakes and the nuts.”). Living with a bunch of theater kids, visual artists, sculptors, and writers for three years means I have seen things, and I’m not talking about someone else’s sexcapades or our  if-we-catch-you-up-there-you’re-expelled creepy-ass attic. We dialed 1-800-The-Great-Beyond on multiple occasions. Dead people talked to us in dreams. Psychic stuff happened on the reg. Seriously, my boyfriend once duct-taped me to a wall as performance art. No art-based anthology would scare me. Go back to drawing school. 
Then I read Collage Macabre, coming from Future Dead Collective on April 18, 2023.
In retrospect, I probably freaked them out with the fangirl tweeting. Scaring me with paint? The paint was only the beginning. I will never crochet again. Sculpture? Thanks, y’all. I will now gaze upon my favorite works and wonder what nefarious artistry created them. We always knew that performance art could turn into the sun and go wrong (see above reference to duct tape), but could you really make me fear theater? Really, Timothy Lanz? Didn’t think that story was going to go there. Never saw it coming, and it came, and that’s etched in my brain-cave for eternity now, thanks (I absolutely and completely adored it; goddamn did that anthology end on a bang). 
In any collection, you’ll love some stories more than others: that’s what makes a good anthology, because my tastes are different than your tastes, and there’s a difference between “This wasn’t my favorite” and “This was not a good story.” Every single story’s great. They all veer in different directions; they all stick their landings. They span time and place and subgenre.
I refuse to pick favorites because what I love best will not necessarily be what you love best, and it’s all awesome. Ai Jiang’s spare prose is a beautiful counterpoint to Ryan Marie Ketterer’s more jarring, yet ornate style. Mob’s romantic “The Red Lady” and Jessica Peter’s “A Study in Umber” bump lusciously against the voices in Joseph Andre Thomas’s “The Preparator” and Erik McHatton’s “Station 42” (if you get it, you get it, and if you don’t, you don’t). 
Sure, paint it black, TJ Price. Whatevs—but oh sweet baby Jesus that’s not whatevs at all. Demi-Louise Blackburn took me through a second-person POV I enjoyed: a difficult feat (and a great story). Clearly, these authors are, when relevant, masters of the art they describe—Rachel Searcey, for example, is a filmmaker—and that authenticity shines through their stories.  
This is a beautiful collection, a haunting collection, a collection of stories not soon forgotten. From romantic obsessives to art students learning to see, from television-headed men to tottering-sticked sculptures, these stories of depraved art and artists will stay with you. I loved it so much I had to:
Stop myself from tweeting each author. I looked like a weirdo.
Stop myself from reading the whole thing at once. This book demands savoring, like good wine, rather than devouring. You wouldn’t stride through an art museum, would you? Then give this collection time. Stop. Look. Contemplate. These stories deserve your full attention.

Sisters by Sir John Everett Millais, 1868
John Everett Millais's portrait of Lady Campbell (1861-1933) was one of three pictures Millais exhibited in 1884 at the Grosvenor Gallery, along with his portrait of the Marquess of Lorne, Queen Victoria's son-in-law (National Gallery, Ottawa), and Millais's image of Lady Campbell when she was a child, from fifteen years earlier (1868-9, fig. 1). It was characteristic of Millais to exhibit society portraits or images of politicians at the Grosvenor, where many of his patrons were frequent visitors. By contrast, in the same year he showed three portraits and an historical picture, An Idyll, 1745 (Lady Lever Art Gallery, Port Sunlight) at the Royal Academy of Arts, and three fancy pictures, Little Miss Muffet (private collection), A Message from the Sea (private collection), and The Mistletoe-Gatherer (private collection, on loan to the National Gallery of South Africa, Capetown) at Thomas McLean's more populist gallery on the Haymarket. Of these nine new pictures, Lady Campbell was the most impressive offering of the year. Millais posed her in a fashionable cap-sleeved white evening dress, with its narrow shoulders and wide bust and a small bouquet of forget-me-nots fastened in front, and a triple-strand pearl necklace, and seated on an oak chest alongside her gloves and a blue Nankin vase filled with tulips. She holds a fan, and looks off to her right. Behind her is a loosely painted yellow floriated tapestry. Nina Lehmann's father commissioned this portrait, as he had the one of her as a child, and in some ways they complement each other. The red camellia held in the lap has been changed to a lady's fan, and the overlarge earthenware pot that the young Nina sits upon, with its drips of glazing along the bottom, has been replaced by a more elegant, refined, and smaller in scale to the sitter, Chinese Porcelain vessel. The work was painted in the month leading up to Nina Lehmann's marriage, to Guy Theophilus Campbell, 3rd Bt, of Thames Ditton, born in 1854 and who served in the Afghan War of 1878-80. They married on 30 April 1884, just before the Grosvenor opened in the first week of May, and less than two years after he had succeeded as Baronet. They would have four boys and two girls. He died 12 September 1931, and she in 1933. Millais's painting of Nina when she was a young girl (fig. 1) was titled Nina, daughter of Frederick Lehman, Esq., and he exhibited it at the Royal Academy in 1869. In that earlier picture, he employed a predominantly white tone and relaxed atmosphere as pursued in many of his images of young girls-such as Spring (1856-9, Lady Lever Art Gallery, Port Sunlight) and Sisters (1868, lot 8). The picture was calculated to appeal to clients with evolved tastes. The sitter's father, Frederick Lehmann (1826-91) was a businessman, violinist, and musical aficionado whose wife, born Jane Gibson Chambers but known as Nina (b. 1830), was a pianist. She was the daughter of the publisher Robert Chambers, founder of the Edinburgh Journal. Lehmann made his fortune dealing arms in the American Civil War. One of his brothers was Henri Lehmann (1814-82), a pupil of J.A.D. Ingres, and the other was Millais's friend, Rudolf Lehmann (1819-1905), also a painter, who lived at Worth Villas, Campden Hill, and who married Jane Chambers's sister Amelia. The Lehmanns were close to Millais's friends such as the novelist Wilkie Collins, musicians including the violinist Joseph Joachim, the conductor and pianist Charles Hall, and other members of English musical society. The Lehmanns held frequent musical evenings for London's artistic society in their house at 15, Berkeley Square. In addition, Lehmann's sister Eliza, married Ernst Benzon, and the Benzons would also become patrons of Millais. It was through society connections that Millais gained the first commission to paint Lehmann's daughter, and then to paint her again to celebrate her marriage. Millais was working on the portrait in early April, when he wrote to his daughter Mary, 'I have finished my pictures for the RA and they have been sent away this morning so I feel a load taken off my back. Your Uncle William was here yesterday and showed the public my works. I believe some hundreds came, but I went out to avoid the Crowd. I have one day's holiday tomorrow and then I have Nina Lehmann sitting to me, as her Father is very anxious for her portrait to go to the Grosvenor gallery. All the pictures are very much liked and I shall set about doing the other Commissions from Mr. Wertheimer'. (John Everett Millais to Mary Millais, at 31, Devonshire Terrace, W.impole Street, from Palace Gate, dated 7 April 1884, Pierpont Morgan Library, Millais Papers MA.1485). The opulence of this portrait, and the interest in fashion and elegant environs was a later and more modern manifestation of the Georgian revival that Millais had spearheaded in the 1860s with portraits such as Sisters (1868, lot 8). Here, Millais worked in a mode that reflected concerns in contemporary continental art, where artists like Pierre Auguste-Renoir collaborated with sitters such as Madame Georges Charpentier, posed in 1878 with her two children in her apartment and surrounded by a litany of forms associated with the pan-European Aesthetic Movement. Such paintings represented cultivated tastes in clothing and accoutrements (often Asian in style), and also bore elegant and evocative brushwork free from the detailed description of Millais's earlier Pre-Raphaelite style. As Claude Phillips wrote in The Academy of the Grosvenor Gallery display of 1884, 'It was a somewhat bold venture on the part of Mr. Millais to have placed in juxtaposition his superb and well-remembered portrait of 'Miss Nina Lehmann' (57), painted in 1869, and his new portrait of the same lady - now Lady Campbell - (62). The former is one of his most complete and admirable works, and is one to which Englishmen are glad to point as an example of perfect technique from the hand of one of their painters. The new portrait, though in it the master-hand is still visible, and there is much to admire - especially the elegant pose and treatment of the head - does not support comparison with the earlier one either as regards the painting of the flesh, the complete and harmonious rendering of the surroundings, or general charm and accomplishment'.
Yet in the same year the critic Henry Blackburn called Millais 'the greatest living portrait-painter,' and Phillips's opinion resonated more in the 1880s, when Millais's more finished child images, whether portraits or fancy pictures, were routinely and favourably compared to the Georgian era works of Sir Joshua Reynolds and Thomas Gainsborough, than today. Now, it is Millais's more freely painted and suggestive portraits of women such as Hearts are Trumps (1872, Tate), Louise Jopling (1879, National Portrait Gallery), and Kate Perugini (1880, private collection) that seem his most advanced works, and reveal him to be one of the finest portraitists of the period, and the painter who laid the groundwork for John Singer Sargent and Giovanni Boldini and the next generation of European portraitists.

Clinic Interview: Shambolic and Chaotic
Tumblr media
Photo by Rhian Askins
BY JORDAN MAINZER
"It’s like they never left” is certainly an overused adage, but for Clinic, it’s remarkably true. The Liverpool indie rock band who broke out with their beloved debut Internal Wrangler in 2000 last released a record 7 years ago--before Friday, that is. Wheeltappers and Shunters, named after an absurd 70′s variety show of a similar name, is perhaps the best distillation of Clinic ever put to record, 60′s inspired in its aesthetic, uniquely British in its outlook. The album’s upbeat and fun to listen to, and from a broad standpoint, it allows Adrian “Ade” Blackburn and company to capture the spirit of England today, cynical about the future of the country but carrying on nonetheless.
Blackburn spoke to me over the phone last week about the new album, working with engineer Dilip Harris (Mount Kimbie, King Krule, Sons of Kemet), and looking back at the band’s old records. Read the conversation below, edited for length and clarity.
Since I Left You: How does it feel to release your first record in 7 years?
Ade Blackburn: It felt really good to release another record, because, as you say, it’s been 7 years. We’ve done a few other bits and pieces in between, but to get to the point of releasing a record is great.
SILY: You’ve talked about why you wanted to make the type of record you made in terms of the times that we’re in--you wanted it to be an escape and took the title from a 70′s variety show. What about the show made you want to name the album after it?
AB: The variety show was really chaotic. It was set in a working men’s social club. I thought that kind of summed up what the mood of things are like in Britain a bit. Shambolic and chaotic, but still, people try to enjoy themselves.
SILY: Having not released an album in 7 years, when the political climate has, in many people’s eyes, flipped on its head, did you feel like you needed to respond in some way?
AB: Yeah, I think that’s right. We didn’t want to directly make the album about that. But this has been building up for 20 years, so it’s naturally going to be something that crept into the lyrics.
SILY: Aesthetically, Wheeltappers and Shunters is even more retro in terms of your garage pop aesthetic. What influenced that?
AB: It is more so than Free Reign; that was a bit more of an electronic, jazzier sound. With this, one thing we were determined to do was make it fun sounding. With that, we probably went back to some old rock and roll sounds. A bit more carefree than thought out too much.
SILY: The first couple songs already released to the public, “Laughing Cavalier” and “Rubber Bullets”--did the label want those as singles, or was it you who thought they really encapsulated the feeling of the record?
AB: I think they cover a couple of sides to the record. One’s got more of a circus, variety, character to it. The other one’s a bit more punk, rock and roll sounding. Sometimes, in the past we’d only have one single, but when you have two, it gives people more of an idea of what the album is.
SILY: The album is not monochrome at all--it really has many sides to it.
AB: Yeah, we just wanted to keep the album short to a point, to not see it as a collection of songs but an entertaining half hour by any means.
SILY: What’s the story behind the video for “Laughing Cavalier”?
AB: The video came through Domino. It was [Joseph May] who did it in London. He had done the one for “Rubber Bullets” as well. It’s got almost a British sort of theme to it. They both have neanderthal elements mixed with some circus stuff.
SILY: “Fairyboat of the Mind” really stood out to me from an instrumental standpoint. Can you talk a little about the structure and instrumentation on that song? And who’s doing the vocal harmonies behind you?
AB: We hadn’t really done an instrumental like that for quite a while. We wanted to get back to mixing in clarinet and the harmonica. The spoken word bits on it are Jonathan Hartley, the keyboardist, and the backing vocals are Brian Campbell, the bass player. That again was a fun thing to do. It stops and starts where you don’t want it to.
SILY: It’s off-kilter.
AB: It’s quite a haunting melody. It reminds me of a David Axelrod song.
SILY: Do you have a favorite track on the record?
AB: I think probably “D.I.S.C.I.P.L.E” is my favorite. The more sort of full-on punk type songs are the ones I feel most confident about. Everything doesn’t have to be too precise. It can be rough around the edges. We could record it really quickly.
SILY: How did you come to work with Dilip Harris?
AB: That was through Domino. We always record ourselves in Hartley’s home studio. I spoke to Dilip, and he seemed to have a really good grasp of what we were going for. He wanted to be quite playful putting it together. He put more effects on it than we would have.
SILY: Had you heard any of his work before working with him?
AB: I hadn’t heard a lot, but I had heard some of it. It’s quite a mixed bag, isn’t it? He’s done some mainstream stuff and some lo-fi stuff. I liked the fact he had done both because we wanted a bit of both. We didn’t want it to be too lo-fi sounding.
Tumblr media
SILY: What’s the artistic inspiration behind the cover art?
AB: That cover art was from an original album called The Sounds & Songs of Britain, which came out in 1975. That’s got various sorts of sound effects from the countryside, and it’s also got the town criers you hear at the end of “Be Yourself”. It’s got bits of dialogue and sound effects we used, and we realized the cover was pretty perfect for our album, so we just decided to use that.
SILY: Have you played these songs live?
AB: We played a BBC Radio 6 Music event in March. That was the first thing we had done. But we’re not playing live until June.
SILY: What’s the approach you’re taking in adapting the songs to the stage?
AB: We play quite a few off the new LP. It’s usually what you’ve been rehearsing. They sound a bit more raw and punky. They sound like they’ve got a lot of life in them.
SILY: When you come up with a setlist and you’re playing a lot of new songs, when you pick from your back catalog, do you play what fans want to hear, or do you pick songs that you think will go well with the new material?
AB: We always try to do quite a lot of what fans and people would want to hear. We do half a set of that, and then throw in a few obscure album tracks or B-sides, and then new songs. You always try to avoid making it difficult for the audience. It should be entertaining.
SILY: Do you have any U.S. tour dates coming up?
AB: Possibly. We’re looking at that at the moment. It would be in the autumn. It’s been 7 years since we’ve played, so we should get some dates together.
SILY: Is there anything you’ve been listening to, reading, or watching lately that’s caught your attention?
AB: The last book that I read were Room at the Top by John Braine, which is set in the late 50′s in Britain. I’m always drawn to those British writers. [laughs]
SILY: Does what you’re listening to when you write and record have any influence on what you’re writing and recording?
AB: What I find is that, say, what I’ve listened to in the previous year then would influence me when I’m putting songs together. Once I’m actually recording, it has the opposite effect. If I go in and record something quite melodic, I’ll want to go home and listen to something raw.
SILY: Looking back at some of your old albums, do you find you still connect with them? Is it easy to inhabit the headspace you were in when you made them?
AB: [pauses] I think I know pretty much a lot of the time what headspace I was in. Some of it, I listen to and can’t understand why I went in a certain direction. But the majority of the time, I can still relate to what the ideas were at the time. After we made the albums, we didn’t listen back to them. It’s only more recently we’ve listened back to them. I was really quite pleased. They were a good listen.
SILY: Do you think you would ever reissue or do a retrospective or tour a classic album like Internal Wrangler?
AB: Possibly. I do like that. I think we’ve got quite a lot of demos and different songs and alternatives and instrumental pieces we did for Internal Wrangler. So we could certainly piece something together.

In my MIT studies in Floristry, I was told that 'a good florist should be able to make an arrangement from anything.' This was a challenge that I began to apply to objects outside of this field. The conversations around objects and their power to both hold value and add value. The book by Jennifer Van Horn; The power of Objects in the Eighteenth-century British America. She talks about this aspect of objects. She uses the in the introduction the works by Joseph Blackburn, a portrait painter in the 18th Century. Blackburn was commisioned by early settler merchants, to paint their portraits. The portrait of Francis Jones who was the President of Bermuda. The work featured Francis Jones sitting at his desk with an open letter in hand. In the corner of the painting is what appears to be a painting hanging on the wall with a faint outline of a ship sailing out into the horizon. This painting of Blackburn served two purposes. It provided the sitter Francis Jones the opportunity to communicate to the viewers both his status and wealth, whilst at the same time giving Blackburn a form of advertisement for his work as an artist. This led to more commissions amongst Francis Jones affluent circles of aquaintances.
Van Horn was presenting the idea of the multifaceted influence and impact of objects.
This multifaceted power that object's hold, is what makes working with readymade and found objects so exciting. The ability of an object to bring layers of meaning as signifiers gives the work that is made their value. This responsibility that I give to the objects in my work is why the selection of each object is important. The objects are chosen for their aesthetic quality, but being fully aware that the viewers may see and encounter the works in a very different way from me. The readings if the works and what it could say is left open as my interest is not to dictate to the possible readings of the work but to make work that satisfy my aesthetic requirements.
These requirements are from a design perspective. The presence of the work in the space is determined by my utilising of the elements and principles of design to construct the
work.
My relationship to the materials and objects are to do with the composition, placement and the visual presence of the work in the space.
Tumblr media
As in this piece here. While it is still in its experimental stage, the consideration is given mainly on how it looks visually. This aesthetic demand is tge one I seek to satisfy, this is the only requirement that I am putting on the process. The rest is left to what the objects used, could imply or bring to the work.
This is a place I am relieved to have finally arrived to. I am aware of the anti-beauty discussions that exist in art history and the push away from art for arts sake's conversations that have gone on. I am not making a case for beauty or for ornamentations, I simply want to put together combinations of objects that satisfy my need for well proportioned, arrangements.
This to me is the case of an itch that I need to scratch. This need to satisfy my own demands on objects is what is giving energy and fueling my making so far. I am compelled to exhaust all of this fuel and energy to see where it leads and what may emerge from it.
