Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Walter Sickert was one of the most influential artists of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. An apprentice of Whistler and close associate of Degas, he engaged with the work of French artists of the time. Sickert in turn influenced many British painters up to the present day.This book w…ill show how Sickert transformed the representation of everyday life, with his innovative approach to subject matter, radical compositions and the evocation of the materiality of existence in paint. It will explore the changing nature of his work - from an impressionistic approach in the 1880s to a pioneering use of photography in the 1930s - and how he returned over and over to locations and subjects, including his penetrating self-portraits. Sickert's imagination was fuelled by news and current events such as the Camden Town Murders and newspaper photography, but also by popular culture - music halls, the stage, the rise of cinema and celebrity.Featuring over 200 images from the exhibition and a wide range of essays by scholars, as well as reflections on Sickert's relevance and influence by a selection of contemporary painters including Kaye Donachie and Somaya Critchlow.Tate Britain Exhibition, 28th April - 18th September 2022 To accompany a major exhibition of one of the central figures in British art and the first exhibition dedicated to Sickert at Tate since 1960.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. First Edition. "Will Robinson first met Chief Walter Wright of the Kitselas Band in Terrace, B.C. in 1928. They developed a friendship over the years during which Chief Wright gradually shared more and more insight into the life and history of his people. In 1935 or 1936, Chief Wright said he pla…nned to tell Robinson his 'Story' so it could be written down. By late 1936 Robinson had typed 40,000 words and the history of Medeek from its beginnings in the dim ages of mythology had been written down to some ninety years ago. The history is in two parts. Close questioning led to a reasonable assumption that the first part ended some 600 to 700 years ago. This book contains the first part. It deals with the basic myths, with life in the legendary city of Tum- L. - Hama, with a westerly migration that ended on the rocky cliffs of the Kitselas Canyon, some 100 miles up the Skeena River from Prince Rupert. 'Men of Medeek' looks to the east; back to the land of the ancestors. Only once - the raid down the Pacific coast, does the narrative deal with the peoples of the sea-board. 'Wars of Medeek' still remains to be written." - paraphrased from Preface. 93 pages. Black and white photo of each author. Map of Skeena River and central B.C. coast inside back cover. Clean and unmarked with light wear. Binding intact. A quality copy of this precious history. [Edwards & Lort 4105]; 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall; Men of Medeek Native Peoples Northwest Coast British Columbia Kitselas Canyon Skeena River Prince Rupert Tum - L - Hama Kitimaat. Illustrated by Baumeister, Ron; Patzelt, Max (illustrator).
