Paperback. Condition: Fine. 1st. 160 pages, illustrations (chiefly colour), portraits; 27 cm. Published to accompany an exhibition held at Tate Britain, London, 19 May to 10 August 2014. Firm binding, clean inside copy. *** "Art historian, collector, museum director, and broadcaster Kenneth Clark (1903-1983) was one of the leadi…ng cultural figures of the mid-20th century. This new book considers all aspects of his life and work, including his landmark TV series, Civilization. Clark was enormously important in terms of his support of, and influence upon, the art of his time. As director of Britain's National Gallery he oversaw the relocation of its collection during WWII; as chair of the War Artists Advisory Committee he persuaded the government not to draft artists--such as Henry Moore; in 1954 he co-founded the broadcasting company that was to become ITV, and then chaired the British Arts Council from 1955 to 1960. A passionate advocate of making art accessible to all, in 1969 Clark wrote and presented Civilization for the BBC, distilling the history of Western philosophy, culture, and art into 13 groundbreaking episodes--the first-ever blockbuster documentary series viewed around the world. / Chris Stephens is a senior curator of Modern British Art and head of Displays at Tate Britain. John-Paul Stonnard is an independent scholar and a regular contributor to the Burlington Magazine, Artforum, and Times Literary Supplement." - Publisher. *** CONTENTS: Director's foreword, by Penelope Curtis; Introduction, by Chris Stephens and John-Paul Stonard; 1.

Richly illustrated with colour plates. *** "Augustus John (1878-1961) was one of the best-known and most colorful British artists of his generation, while his sister Gwen (1876-1939) led a reclusive life studying under Whistler in Paris. Since the 1960s, Gwen John's intense studies of female nudes and portraits have made her a feminist icon, and Augustus's work has fallen from fashion. This book, with more than 100 color illustrations, examines the sibling artists side by side for the first time." - Publisher. *** CONTENTS: Gwen John and Augustus John: mutual differences, by David Fraser Jenkins; 'Augustus's sister': Gwen John: wholeness, harmony and radiance, by Lisa Tickner; Catalogue: entries on Gwen John compiled, Edited by Cecily Langdale; Catalogue: entries on Augustus John compiled, Edited by Tim Batchelor, David Fraser Jenkins and Chris Stephens; 1.
