Bridget Riley & Tracy K. Smith

No es

                                                                                             para jean

.

Que la muerte estaba pensando en ti o en mí

O en nuestra familia, o en la mujer

Que nuestro padre abandonaría cuando falleció.

La muerte estaba pensando en su deuda:

Su viaje más allá del cuerpo, de la ropa,

.

Más allá de la nube, de impuestos periódicos,

El coche y su transfusión de gasolina, los árboles

Pesados en su jardín. La muerte le alejó

Del cuarto de herramientas, el congelador lleno de carne,

La televisión diciendo una y otra ved Buscad

.

y encontraréis. Entonces, ¿por qué insistimos

En que ha desaparecido, en que la muerte robó

Todo lo que merecía la pena tener? ¿Por qué no que estaba

Nadando a través de esta vida -con su lento,

Y elegante braceo, los hombros haciendo ondas,

.

Las piernas cortando olas, deslizándose

En la profundidad de lo que la vida misma niega?

Él sólo se ha ido, es lo que podemos decir. Pero

Cuando lo intento, veo la nube blanca de su cabello

Como una eternidad en la distancia.

.

Francis Bacon - Jorge Lewinski -1967

[beckiarnott-cdme3021]

(Revisiting after Shoot 2)

I wanted to look into some photographers who have worked with artist portraiture. This research isn’t necessarily about the use of continuous lighting, however focusing on how the photographer captured the artist interacting with their artwork/studio as part of the portrait.

Jorge Lewinski

What caught my eye about Jorge Lewinski was the way he shows the artist interacting with their environment. This isn't a portrait in it’s typical sense, and that is what I was interested by. The brief states that we should show our model with their appropriate attire, possibly with a prop, as they would appear when engaged in their passion. As my chosen theme doesn’t have a specific attire, I want to focus on the ‘prop’ aspect and capture my model engaged in their passion. One of the photographs I like in particular is the top left photo, showing the artist sat at her desk taking part in her work, the photograph still shows a large amount of her face, in addition to showcasing her work at the same time.

Baron Wolman

Baron Wolman is more typically portraiture focused than Jorge in the way that not as many props are used, instead the environment is brought into focus and is part of the composition. These portraits focus on how the model presents themselves through posture and facial expression, which I can combine with the techniques of Jorge in the way that they also interact with their props.

Changing Themes

After getting in contact with my models used for the ParkRun shoot, I have discovered that they are unable to make availability for another shoot. Springtime is a very popular time for running events such as marathons, and some of my models are going to be in different locations and are therefore not all available at the same time. Luckily, as it is still early on I am able to change themes to Rock Painting, another passion in which a lot of the ParkRun girls share, this is something I will be able to capture with my remaining models.

Edward Bawden at Home

 Edward Bawden - Press and Books, 1979

 The Print Room - 2 Park Lane, Saffron Walden, 1989

Edward Bawden is best known as one of the Great Bardfield artists in the 1950s, but as the artists either divorced or moved away to other villages and towns, Edward and his wife Charlotte were the only important artists left in the village in the late 1960s, (other than John Aldridge). With health problems and old age, Bawden and his wife decided to move to Saffron Walden. Charlotte sadly died just before moving into 2 Park Lane, Saffron Walden, but Edward honoured the sale and moved alone in 1970.

With the blank canvas of a new house, Bawden set to work decorating the rooms with his own wallpapers and setting up the possessions brought from Brick House into this new home. A studio was built on the back of the property with large windows and a trap door for large works to enter the studio without going through the house.  After ten years living at the property Bawden’s health became worse with old age. 

For most of the year he was more house-bound than he had ever been and this forced him into new subject areas. In 1986 he began a series of watercolours which depicted his own rooms, his studio, his plants, his glowing oriental carpets, his gas fire, his cat Emma Nelson, and, eventually, this most private of men made his own face the subject of his art.

This focus on home and the cat was becoming obvious when one looks at the exhibition picture list for ‘The Private World of Edward Bawden’ by the Fine Art Society in 1987.

 Works list at ‘The Private World of Edward Bawden’ Exhibition, 1987. †

The Tate now posses two of the pictures from this show, “Emma Nelson by the Fire” and “Roses and Rue”, both pictures with the cat in. In the magazine ‘House and Garden’ (December 1987) Edward Bawden gave an interview about his cat:

No cat will suffer from being lifted up and dropped into an empty space intended for her to occupy; that procedure led inevitably to Emma, tail up, walking away at once, so I had to wait patiently until Emma had enjoyed a good meal of Coley and was ready to choose her daily sleeping place, wherever it might be. I would then spring into action with a colour and colour. ‡

 Edward Bawden - Emma Nelson by the Fire, 1987

When the Tate wrote to Richard Bawden for more information on the painting they had acquired (Emma Nelson by the Fire) in 1991 he responded with this letter:

Although the house is covered with his early wallpapers, yellowed by nineteen years of nicotine, his studio being an extension was painted brick and not alas the wallpaper known as Rustication [1938–9] ... The nasty tartan fur lined cat ‘basket’ came from the local charity shop ... The rug on the floor used to be in the bathroom at Brick House, Gt. Bardfield, bought by my mother on a trip to Portugal or elsewhere. The curtain draped over the armchair hung in the spare room at Gt. Bardfield, and I am fairly sure must have been designed by Marianne Straub who lived in the cottage directly across the road and who at the time, I mean the late fifties, was chief designer at Warners. The cushion, at a guess because there is not much showing, was probably covered by a piece of hand blocked cotton by Barron & Larcher who had a studio in Painswick until the outbreak of war. The gas fire I cannot help you with, only I think Edward has improved its design. ♠

The letter illustrates a lifetime of collecting and friendships in the possessions Bawden owned. In next week’s post I will elaborate more on this theme but I will leave you with some of the many images Bawden painted of his home and of his cat.
