| collagraph a journey through texture: Crossing Boundaries: The Journey from Teacher to Teaching Artist Purnima Ruanglertbutr, 2012-11-01 Crossing Boundaries: The Journey from Teacher to Teaching Artist is an exhibition curated by Purnima Ruanglertbutr. Crossing Boundaries displays more than sixty works of art by twenty-seven secondary school Visual Art teachers who have recently graduated from the Master of Teaching (Secondary, Art) program at the University of Melbourne. In addition to a wide range of eclectic artworks across multiple mediums, this catalogue comprises succinct and informative commentaries on the role that art making plays in the graduates’ teaching. These are special insights; Visual Art teachers are educators who carry the expectation that to be good in the classroom, they should have a vibrant private practice – that in order to ‘teach it’, they also have to prove that they can ‘do it’. But through their works of art and artist statements, the participants in this exhibition question their practice and expose themselves to continued examination and critique. The commentaries reveal the graduates exhibit professional identities that amalgamate both the roles of an ‘artist’ and a ‘teacher’ through a re-framing of the teacher of art as an ‘artist teacher’ or a ‘teaching artist’. The foreword by Art Education Australia, Art Education Victoria and the introduction by the curator explores the term ‘teaching artist’ within the context of the exhibition - that ‘teaching artists’ boast a hybrid identity fusing the roles of teacher and artist – an identity that conflates two distinct professions and is successful because the artist teacher brings practitioner skills in both professions. |

| collagraph a journey through texture: Threads Julia Blackburn, 2015 Winner of the East Anglian Book of the Year 2015 John Craske, a Norfok fisherman, was born in 1881 and in 1917, when he had just turned thirty-six, he fell seriously ill. For the rest of his life he kept moving in and out of what was described as 'a stuporous state'. In 1923 he started making paintings of the sea and boats and the coastline seen from the sea, and later, when he was too ill to stand and paint, he turned to embroidery, which he could do lying in bed. His embroideries were also the sea, including his masterpiece, a huge embroidery of The Evacuation of Dunkirk. Very few facts about Craske are known, and only a few scattered photographs have survived, together with accounts by the writer Sylvia Townsend Warner and her lover Valentine Ackland, who discovered Craske in 1937. So - as with all her books - Julia Blackburn's account of his life is far from a conventional biography. Instead it is a quest which takes her in many strange directions - to fishermen's cottages in Sheringham, a grand hotel fallen on hard times in Great Yarmouth and to the isolated Watch House far out in the Blakeney estuary; to Cromer and the bizarre story of Einstein's stay there, guarded by dashing young women in jodhpurs with shotguns. Threads is a book about life and death and the strange country between the two where John Craske seemed to live. It is also about life after death, as Julia's beloved husband Herman, a vivid presence in the early pages of the book, dies before it is finished. In a gentle meditation on art and fame; on the nature of time and the fact of mortality; and illustrated with Craske's paintings and embroideries, Threads shows, yet again, that Julia Blackburn can conjure a magic that is spellbinding and utterly her own. |

| collagraph a journey through texture: Robert Frank Robert Frank, 2019-04-23 In this, Robert Frank's newest book, he both acknowledges and moves beyond his acclaimed visual diaries (2010-17), which juxtapose iconic photos from throughout his career with the more personal pictures he makes today and suggestive, often autobiographical text fragments. In Good days quiet Frank's focus is life inside and outside his beloved weather-beaten wooden house in Mabou, where he has spent summers for decades with his wife June Leaf. Among portraits of Leaf, Allen Ginsberg and Frank's son are images of the house's simple interior with its wood-fueled iron stove, humble furniture and bare light bulbs, and views of the land and sea by the house: snow-covered, windswept, stormy or lit by the dying sun. Frank's Polaroid prints show various deliberate states of deterioration and manipulation at his hands, including texts that move from the merely descriptive (watching the crows) to the emotive (memories, grey sea--old house / can you hear the music). As always in Frank's books, his message lies primarily in the photos' lyrical sequence, an influential approach to the photobook pioneered by and today well at home in his 94-year-old hands. Robert Frank was born in Zurich in 1924 and immigrated to the United States in 1947. He is best known for his seminal book The Americans, first published in English in 1959, which gave rise to a distinctly new form of the photobook, and his experimental film Pull My Daisy (1959). Frank's other important projects include the books Black White and Things (1954), The Lines of My Hand (1972) and the film Cocksucker Blues for the Rolling Stones (1972). He divides his time between New York City and Nova Scotia, Canada. |

| collagraph a journey through texture: Francis Bacon , 2021 Francis Bacon is considered one of the most important painters of the 20th century. A major exhibition of his paintings at the Royal Academy of Arts in 2020 explores the role of animals in his work - not least the human animal. Having often painted dogs and horses, in 1969 Bacon first depicted bullfights. In this powerful series of works, the interaction between man and beast is dangerous and cruel, but also disturbingly intimate. Both are contorted in their anguished struggle and the erotic lurks not far away: Bullfighting is like boxing, Bacon once said. A marvellous aperitif to sex. 0Twenty-two years later, a lone bull was to be the subject of his final painting. In this fascinating publication - a significant addition to the literature on Bacon - expert authors discuss Bacon's approach to animals and identify his varied sources of inspiration, which included surrealist literature and the photographs of Eadweard Muybridge. They contend that, by depicting animals in states of vulnerability, anger and unease, Bacon sought to delve into the human condition.00Exhibition: Royal Academy of Arts, London, UK (22.01-12.04.2021). |
