En este episodio exploramos la vida y obra de Jan van Eyck, el maestro flamenco cuya invención y perfeccionamiento de la técnica de la pintura al óleo transformó para siempre el mundo del arte. Conocido por sus impresionantes detalles y colores vibrantes, Van Eyck es considerado uno de los pioneros de este medio, lo que permitió una mayor precisión y profundidad en las obras de arte. Acompáñanos mientras desentrañamos su legado, su estilo único, y el impacto que tuvo en el desarrollo de la pintura renacentista. Analizaremos sus obras más famosas, como el "Retablo de Gante" y "El Retrato de Arnolfini", y cómo su innovación dejó una huella indeleble en la historia del arte.

¡Vótame en los Premios iVoox 2024! Flandes, esa tierra de brumas y canales donde campos y ciudades se funden con el mar en un horizonte infinito, fue la cuna de una escuela pictórica que deslumbró al mundo hace más de cinco siglos, un ramillete de pintores magistrales que exhibían un detallado realismo y una profunda introspección. Los maestros flamencos, alquimistas de la luz y el color, no solo retrataron la realidad con una precisión asombrosa, sino que también se adentraron en los misterios del alma humana revelando las pasiones, los anhelos, las miserias y las grandezas de una de las sociedades más opulentas de su época. En los albores del Renacimiento, cuando Italia recuperaba los cánones clásicos, Flandes florecía como un centro de comercio y cultura. Brujas, Gante, Amberes, ciudades vibrantes y cosmopolitas, se convirtieron en el escenario donde se forjó esta escuela singular a la sombra de los duques de Borgoña. Los artistas flamencos, herederos de la tradición medieval, pero abiertos a las nuevas corrientes artísticas, desarrollaron un estilo propio caracterizado por la minuciosidad del detalle, la riqueza cromática y la maestría en el manejo de la luz. El óleo, esa sustancia mágica que permite capturar la luminosidad y la transparencia, se convirtió en la herramienta predilecta de estos pintores flamencos. Jan van Eyck, el genio visionario, creo obras de una belleza y un realismo incomparables. Pero la Escuela Flamenca no se limitó a la representación fiel de la realidad. Sus artistas, imbuidos de un profundo sentido religioso y moral, dotaron a sus obras de un simbolismo complejo. Roger van der Weyden, maestro del dramatismo y la emoción, nos conmueve con sus escenas de piedad y sufrimiento. Hans Memling, con su pincel delicado y elegante, nos transporta a un mundo de serenidad y armonía. Sus vírgenes, de rostro dulce y mirada melancólica encarnan la pureza y la bondad. En sus retratos, la nobleza y la burguesía flamenca se muestran en todo su esplendor. Y luego está Hieronymus Bosch, más conocido en los países de habla hispana como El Bosco, que fue un pionero creador de mundos fantásticos poblados de criaturas extrañas y escenas oníricas. "El Jardín de las Delicias", esa obra maestra enigmática y perturbadora, nos sumerge en un universo de pecado y redención, donde la lujuria, la gula y la vanidad se mezclan con la inocencia y la esperanza. Pieter Brueghel el Viejo, por su parte, nos acerca a la vida cotidiana de los campesinos, con sus alegrías y sus penas, sus fiestas y sus trabajos. Sus paisajes, nos muestran la belleza de aquella tierra, pero también la dureza de la vida en el campo. La Escuela Flamenca, con su realismo y su simbolismo profundo, dejó una huella imborrable en la historia del arte. Sus maestros, con su dominio de la luz y el color, nos legaron un tesoro de valor incalculable. Su legado sigue vivo, inspirando a artistas y conmoviendo a aficionados de todas las épocas. Eso mismo es lo que vamos a tratar hoy en La ContraHistoria de la mano de Alberto Garín. Nos sumergiremos en la escuela flamenca que tuvo su continuación en los siglos XVI y XVII con artistas de la talla de Rubens, van Dyck o Jordaens. En el siglo XIX la pintura flamenca renació prefigurando los estilos contemporáneos de la mano de James Ensor.

I detta avsnitt tar vi oss an den mytomspunna målningen ”Makarna Arnolfinis trolovning” av Johannes van Eyck från 1434, som nuförtiden finns på National Gallery i London. Vi pratar om allt från den ytterst snåriga proveniensen till de många avbildade vardagsföremålen och deras möjliga dolda betydelser.Inte minst resonerar vi om det avbildade paret och om det verkligen är en trolovning vi ser i målningen. Kan det verkligen vara den i Brygge verksamme handelsmannen Giovanni Arnolfini och hans fru Giovanna Cenamis giftermål som är avbildat? Bröllopet ägde rum 1447, men konstnären Jan van Eyck dog redan 1441. Eller är ”Makarna Arnolfinis trolovning” i själva verket ett minnesporträtt föreställandes Giovanni di Nicolao Arnolfinis och hans döda maka Constanza Trenta? Och är Hernaoul le Fin och Arnoult Fin som man läser om i de historiska källorna samma person som Arnolfini?Vi följer arkivspåren hur målningen kom från Brygge via Spanien till National Gallery i London? Köpte den skotske översten James Hay - som sålde tavlan till National Gallery 1842 efter det engelska kungahuset avböjde att köpa den - verkligen tavlan när han kurerade sig i Bryssel efter slaget vid Waterloo? Eller är tavlan snarare ett byte efter plundringen av den spanska kungliga samlingen vid slaget av Vitoria 1813, som han medverkade i?Allt detta och mycket mer får ni höra mer om i vårt nya avsnitt!Support till showen http://supporter.acast.com/konsthistoriepodden.

Send us a textIn today's episode, I chat with the man in charge of culture for the city of Gloucester, Philip Walker, Head of Cultural Services, Gloucester City Council.  Where would we be without culture? Culture is vitally important, it provides the vitality, sense of belonging and opportunity for us to come together and connect with things that light up our hearts. For tourists, culture is the distinction which sets a place apart from another and forms ‘the experience'. Imagine a Britain without our pubs, theatres, football, rugby, music, and beautiful historic buildings.  Imagine being responsible for culture within a whole city!? My guest in today's podcast, Phil Walker, has the responsibility of overseeing the culture of the city of Gloucester. His role is to ensure it thrives and is distinctive enough to drive inbound tourism – a big remit.    Phil began his career in the visitor economy in Bristol, during that time he worked in several venues across the city including Arnolfini, Watershed and Bristol Museums.   It's not often I get to speak to someone who was involved in a massive Banksy exhibition.  Do you remember the Banksy take over at Bristol Museum and Art Gallery? It was epic! Phil shares how he received that call from Banksy's ‘people' one day and how he almost lost his job!  He's taken his amazing experience with him to Gloucester, a smaller and diverse city with similar heritage to Bristol, as a trading post based on a river.     Phil and I talk about the plans for Gloucester and the importance of big events in driving footfall and bringing a city or destination together.  We talk about how Gloucester is investing in its cultural sector to retain its creative talent, and the idea of giving people freedom to curate the city with their own ideas and events.   We chat about why it's important for a Council and those with power, to hand over control to young people and others involved in the creative industries, to not only give the place life and distinction but to create a sense of belonging and pride.There are some interesting insights into what it takes to drive a city's culture.  I hope you enjoy the episode. You can find Phil here:LinkedIn To share your views on this subject and ask questions about the episode, head over to:InstagramLinkedIn This episode is sponsored by Hello Starling.

In the 1400s, influencers couldn't simply scout a location, arrange the perfect lighting and pull out their camera phone to snap dozens of pics testing different angles to find the perfect shot demonstrating how much better their curated life is than the lived experience of the rest of us plebeians. No back then, if someone wanted a picture to go along with their smug sense of superiority, they needed to hire a painter and in 1434, Jan van Eyck painted one of the greatest testaments to the enduring power of carefully constructing a casually posed portrait. There is a lot of debate about the meaning and symbolism in the work, but a common interpretation is that this is a sort of wedding scene. The man is taking the hand of his wife. She is in the interior of the space near the bed reinforcing the gender roles of the time with the woman's place being taking care of the home while he stands by the open window symbolizing his role in the outside world. The mirror in the background is said to represent the eye of God witnessing their union and the frame of the circular mirror has a dozen small scenes from the passion of Christ. The small dog could be seen as a symbol of fidelity, or some say simply it is another signifier of wealth as many wealthy women were given lap dogs as companions. The green of the dress symbolizes hope. Many speculate the hope of becoming a mother and while many viewers today believe the woman in the portrait appears to be pregnant, as we all know, one should never assume a woman is pregnant. Scholars say this was actually a fashionable look for the day. Clothing was very expensive. Their clothing was particularly expensive with fur lining etc. The idea back then was the more clothing, the more wealthy one must be, so no matter how ridiculous the silhouette may appear to contemporary audiences, in the 15th century, those strange bulges of fabric showed that this was a person who could afford to dress themselves. It was conspicuous consumption proving yet again that for as long as we have had a means to record what people looked like, those people have worked to dress themselves up and surround themselves with markers of their high status. While some see modern mass media as producing a more vain and shallow culture, I would argue van Eyck shows us people have always been feeding their egos and flaunting their privilege with material goods. At least now most people know better than to use animal fur to do it. Who ARTed is an Airwave Media Podcast.

Oriana Fox interviews the insatiable, sexy and weird performance artist Eirini Kartsaki who expounds her Manifesto and entices Oriana to show more cleavage. More accurately, Oriana listens to her guest and sometimes interjects with a question or two as Kartsaki fleshes out what it means to live a life free from norms and expectations, a life that is weird, inconsistent, too much and without children. In doing so she calls for a revaluation of inconsistency, uncertainty and instability. Kartsaki's top tip for self care (spoiler alert), is to scream 'lawlessness' ten times in a row. Lawlessness! Lawlessness! Lawlessness! Lawlessness! Lawlessness! Lawlessness! Lawlessness! Lawlessness! Lawlessness! Lawlessness!  The interview was recorded live on Instagram in May 2021 as part of Oriana's digital residency at Mimosa House Gallery.

Mindenki ezerszer látta már ezeket a képeket, ezért úgy tűnhet, nincs már mit elmondani róluk. Ám az igazi remekművek titkait nem könnyű megfejteni, és mindig tartogatnak meglepetéseket. És ha az ember jó kérdést tesz fel, meglepően izgalmas válaszokat kaphat. Kérdés: Ki ez a férfi? A figyelem központjában évszázadok óta a fiatal nő áll – talán a smaragdzöld ruha az oka? –, és egy pillantásra sem méltatjuk a férfit, aki a kezét fogja. A nő igazán extravagáns látvány – a furcsa szarvszerű hajviselet, a felborotvált homlok, a művészi redőkbe rendezett hosszú, uszályos ruha mind őt teszi a kép főhősévé. A mellette álló, sötét ruhába öltözött férfi szinte belesimul a háttérbe. Pedig a korabeli nézők számára nyilvánvaló volt: valójában ő a kép főszereplője, aki mindezt a luxust, amit a kép ábrázol, megteremtette. Jan van Eyck: Az Arnolfini házaspár (1430) Merthogy a pár gazdag volt – méghozzá elképesztő mértékben. A picike hálófülkében a kor legdrágább luxustermékei láthatók: a valódi üveggel fedett ablak, a narancs az ablakpárkányon, a tükör a falon, a fémből készült csillár és a piros kelme, amely beborítja a hátteret. A fiatal nő uszálya olyan hosszú, hogy csakis egy szolgálólány segítségével tudott járni, a zöld ruhát szegélyező hermelinprém pedig legalább 600 állatból készült. A férfialak ruhája is méltó a vagyonához. A kor nemesei sem hordtak ennél különb öltözéket – ám ez a két figura polgári származású volt. Erre utal a lakás, ahol állnak, a picike tér, a fapadló és a papucs, amelyet azért húzott a férfi a lábára, hogy az utca mocska ne piszkítsa be a ruháját. A férfi kereskedő és bankár lehetett, gazdagságát az eszének köszönhette. Annak a józan észnek, ami itt és most cserben hagyta. A fiatal lányt ugyanis nem a pénzéért vette el, hanem puszta szerelemből, és a képet látva ez a korabeli nézőknek egyértelmű volt. A kép főhőse, Michele Arnolfini – aki bátyjával a francia király gazdasági tanácsadója volt – a képen épp egy névtelen és rangtalan szegény lányt vesz el feleségül, akinek mindent ő ajándékozott. Egyet kivéve: a vagyont. A kép valóban a házasságkötés pillanatát ábrázolja, ehhez ugyanis a 15. században még nem kellett templomba menni, sőt pap jelenlétére sem volt szükség. A domború tükörben látható tanúk nem is az esküvő igazolására kellettek, hanem a házassági szerződéshez, amely a korban nagyon gyakori volt, különösen ha az egyik fél nagy vagyonnal rendelkezett. A kép legfontosabb részlete ugyanis a férfi keze, amelyet az arának nyújt: ez a kéz a bal. Ez azt jelenti, hogy ez csak „balkézről való” házasság, amelyben a feleség – bár törvényes hitves – nem egyenrangú a férjjel, és nem örökölheti annak vagyonát sem ő, sem a gyermekeik. A feleség így sem járt rosszul, a szerződés alapján annyi pénzt kapott, amennyi özvegysége esetén is kitartott, ám a vagyon a családban maradt. A férj nevét ismerjük, ám a fiatal ara kilétét homály fedi. A nevét sehol nem említik, ami csak egyet jelenthet: sem ő, sem a családja nem volt fontos. Ám az biztos, hogy nem volt várandós – csak ilyen volt a kor ruhadivata. Ma a mellet hangsúlyozzuk, akkoriban a nagy has volt hasonlóan szexis. --- Írta: Fodor Mária | Megjelent: Nők Lapja Évszakok 2012/ősz, 118. o. | Elmondja: Ambrus Attila József | Aláfestő Free zene: Bethoven: Moonlight Sonata #remekmuvektitkai #fodormaria #ambrusaalkotoistudioja

On Practice: Cooking asks how cooking can bring people together and provide nourishment and care? What are the ways that cooking together can open up difficult conversations - about racism, colonialism and migration?  This episode highlights artist Jasleen Kaur's collaboration with women from the Portman Early Childhood Centre through the Changing Play project Everyday Resistance, and includes Yogyakarta based artist and researcher Elia Nurvista's reflections on food and power, and researcher and cook Fozia Ismail speaking about food as resistance. On Practice is produced by Reduced Listening. Image Credit: Joy Yamusangie.  Show Notes Over the last year through the pandemic, we've seen more than ever how our individual actions impact others, how we're all interdependent. This three-part podcast series explores the practices that can sustain us individually and collectively – Cooking, Listening and Walking - and how they can be used to bring people together to work towards change. Hosts Amal Khalaf and Alex Thorp welcome artists, collaborators and friends to explore ideas and projects developed as part of Serpentine's Education and Civic programme, which connect communities, artists and activists to generate responses to pressing social issues. These are projects that have been developed in collaboration with people, centred on the body, the city, and exploring the injustices we experience in our everyday life. Hear from Jasleen Kaur, Elia Nurvista, Fozia Ismail, Ain Bailey, Micro Rainbow, Portman Early Childhood Centre, Ultra-red, Ximena Alarcón, Sam Curtis, Tim Ingold, Voice of Domestic Workers and Katouche Goll. Each of the three episodes are accompanied by an exercise, kindly shared by the artists, an invitation to join their practice. Jasleen Kaur was born in Glasgow and is now based in London. Her work is an ongoing exploration into the malleability of culture and the layering of social histories within the material and immaterial things that surround us. Her practice examines diasporic identity and hierarchies of history, both colonial and personal. She works with sculpture, video and writing. Recent and forthcoming presentations include exhibitions and projects at the Wellcome Collection, UP Projects, Glasgow Women's Library, Market Gallery, BALTIC Centre for Contemporary Art, Eastside Projects and Hollybush Gardens. Her work is part of the permanent collections of the Government Art Collection, Touchstones Rochdale and the Crafts Council. https://youtu.be/1j5XreNGtYk?t=1644  https://www.serpentinegalleries.org/whats-on/everyday-resistance/  Instagram: @_jasleen.kaur_ Fozia Ismail, scholar, cook and founder of Arawelo Eats, a platform for exploring politics, identity and colonialism through East African food. Ismail is a researcher writing about race and British identity and has spoken at the Oxford Symposium on Food & Cookery, designed workshops with Keep It Complex, Jerwood Project Space and the Museum of London using food as a method to think through issues around race and empire in Britain today. Fozia is also part of Dhaquan Collective, a feminist art collective of Somali women, centering the voices of womxn and elders in the community, and privileging co-creation and collaboration. She was a City Fellow for the Arnolfini, Bristol in 2019.  Her work has been published and featured in a range of media including Observer Food Magazine, Oxford Symposium on Food & Cookery and BBC Radio 4 Food Programme.   https://www.dhaqan.org/  https://www.serpentinegalleries.org/whats-on/radical-kitchen-2018-fozia-ismail-chilli/ https://www.araweloeats.com/  https://oxfordculturalcollective.com/fozia-ismail-food-as-resistance/  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3BfCuBZdhlc&list=PLbP2rruaw4OvyHmG5tYtqgtJ67xIJ5rOf&index=1  Instagram: @arawelo_eats Elia Nurvista is an artist who lives and works in Yogyakarta, Indonesia whose practice focuses on food production and distribution and its broader social and historical implications. Food in various forms — from the planting of crops, to the act of eating and the sharing of recipes — are Nurvista's entry point to exploring issues of economics, labour, politics, culture and gender. Her practice is also concerned with the intersection between food and commodities, and their relationship to colonialism, economic and political power, and status. She runs Bakudapan, a food study group that undertakes community and research projects, and her social research forms the background of her individual projects, presented through mixed media installations, food workshops and group discussion. Her previous installations use a range of materials from crystalline sugar sculptures to sacks of rice, often incorporating video or mural painting and an element of audience interaction. www.elianurvista.com www.bakudapan.com Instagram: @elianurvista

Episode 3 of Season 2 of ARTiculate. I continue to talk to remarkable artists who inspire me in their pursuit of finding their authentic voice within their practise. In a time when it is dangerous to touch our friends, the sensitive touch embodied in a good painting is a genuine gift. They embody something of the human intelligence that made them. They are the products of care embedded in a surface through touch. They speak to us as physical bodies, and remind us of how that physicality connects us to the people around us and to the larger world. I had the pleasure of talking with Jai Chuhan who's unique and expressive paintings are as she puts it ‘painterly exploration of displacement, conflict and desire challenging tropes of exploitation or celebration. Jai is an Indian born British artist who studied at UCL Slade School of Fine Art in the 80s and is currently based in Manchester. Her paintings are sculptural, thick with the texture of impasto paint giving her portraits a certain gravitas. The deliberate use of a vivid colour palette presents the female body as a physical and psychological presence, suggested by simplified geometric areas of colour and lines and shifting viewpoints. Anonymous figures observed in the city are complemented by portrayal of familiar people including self-portraits, using a combination of observation, memory and photographs. Jai's thinks of her practise as an act of zoning in to process beginning with layers of marks. She invests her time in reworking each and every individual picture by erasing an image, after another image, negotiating with time and the image as an act of searching and finding a visual crystallization of ideas. Whether she uses thick impasto of pigments or thin washes that fill the canvas, whatever the method, it makes us as the viewer lose sense of time. Her genre of painting reflects her transcultural aesthetic influences. Jai's work have been exhibited widely in the UK and internationally in solo including the Home and Unhome group show in China, and two solo shows for Asia Triennial Manchester 2018. Some of the prestigious institutions in the Uk include the Tate Liverpool; Barbican, London; Ikon, Birmingham; Arnolfini, Bristol, University of Cambridge; among many many other galleries and institutions.
Recent solo exhibitions include at People's History Museum for Asia Triennial Manchester 2011; Victoria Gallery & Museum, Liverpool 2013; Liverpool Biennial 2014; Gallery Oldham and at HOME for Asia Triennial Manchester 2018. Recent group exhibitions include at ArtANKARA Contemporary Art Fair, Turkey 2020.

It's the first WORK OF THE WEEK for 2021!...so Conor Tallon and The Crawford Gallery's assistant curator Michael Waldron ring in the New Year with this suitably seasonal work of art!A painting that exists somewhere between the abstract and figurative, Blue Constrictor (2006) by Elizabeth Magill offers the viewer an image of unending contemplation.The dark silhouettes of both deciduous and evergreen trees rise across this large canvas. Streaks and glimmers of yellow, red, and blue dart among their wintry forms against a softer wash of twilight. The artist's use of primary colours, however, implies that we are being presented with something constructed, while the uncertain viewpoint and atmosphere suggest the sense of being ‘in between'. Forms on the left even appear as spectres or echoes and tiny mixed media elements figure in the upper branches.Does the title, Blue Constrictor, allude to a contracting muscle or a large species of snake? Does the perspective have a dizzying effect or make us uneasy? Is it a landscape?Elizabeth Magill (b.1959) explores the relationship between the Picturesque and Romantic traditions in art. Born in Ontario, Canada, she grew up in County Antrim and now lives and works in London. She studied firstly at the Belfast School of Art and later at the Slade School of Art. Magill has exhibited widely, including at Arnolfini, Limerick City Gallery of Art, IMMA, Hugh Lane Gallery, Tate, and in 0044: Contemporary Irish Art in Britain (1999) at PS1, New York.Blue Constrictor (2006) by Elizabeth Magill is featured in lucid abnormalities (until March 2021) in our Gibson Galleries (Floor 1).

Natasha Rivett-Carnac is a curator and writer with a focus on arts & culture, and education. She runs a blog that supports writers and other creatives to find practical and artistic resources about motherhood. She is a home educator. Until COVID, her family split their school year between Costa Rica and the UK. Her family also participated in The Greenhouse, an outdoor education project The Daily Mail called “Britain’s most hipster school”. I loved how Natasha talked about how words and pictures split for her and for most people, but how she’s bringing them back together. She thinks of drawing as language and uses words as drawing, combining them in her visual artwork and bouncing between visual art-making and writing as creative pursuits. Her focus on personalized education as a primary reason for homeschooling really resonated. We talked about the overlap in theory of TAB (Teaching for Artistic Behavior) and this method of letting children initiate their own questions as a way of learning. She articulated so well the idea of curating the learning experience - creating the environment for learning to happen and occasionally adding new and exciting materials or ideas into it. I’m excited to see how the workshops she’s thinking about and nurturing come into being. She is published in The International Journal of the Arts in Society, Edinburgh University’s Dangerous Woman Project, Resurgence magazine, and elsewhere. Her project Doing Nothing, a collaboration with London-based photographer Grace Gelder, documents Natasha’s experience of early motherhood in Bonn, Germany. It was presented at Carlyle University’s Visualising the Home conference, and is archived at Goldsmith University’s Women’s Library. Natasha supported Chief Curator Jane Trowell at Platform London on the exhibition C Words: Climate, Capital, Culture at Arnolfini in Bristol (UK), one of the leading contemporary art centres in Europe. The exhibition also included a programme of over 80 events and workshops. She has an MA in Arts & Cultural Management from Dartington College of Arts in the UK, and a BA in Interdisciplinary Art: Violin Performance, Visual Art, and Creative Writing from the University of Minnesota. Natasha is originally from Minneapolis and currently lives in Somerset in the UK with her husband and two children.

Esta señal resultó provenir de un lugar que está a 12.500 millones de años luz, es decir, cuando inició su viaje, a nuestro planeta aún le quedaban 8.000 millones de años para nacer. Además, entre nosotros y la galaxia que la emite existen nubes de polvo que hacen que la luz de sus estrellas sea totalmente invisible para nosotros.

El matrimonio Arnolfini @VmorVincitOmnia publicaba en Twitter un hilo sobre la última teoría acerca de El matrimonio Arnolfini, cuadro firmado por Jan Van Eyck en 1434. La teoría es de Margaret L Koster, experta en Historia de Arte Medieval y Renacimiento, que asegura que este cuadro habría sido un encargo de Giovanni Nicolao para retratar la familia que nunca pudo formar ya que su esposa, que aparece embarazada en el retrato, había muerto antes del encargo de dicha pintura. Aquí el hilo completo donde encontrarás más datos. https://twitter.com/VmorVincitOmnia/status/1187101777956659206 03. Dato mierder de Coco 3.153.600 minutos de trabajo se invirtieron para crear la película de animación Coco producida por Disney Pixar y que tiene una duración en pantalla de 105 minutos. Lo cierto es que he dado con el dato de la forma menos glamourosa posible: a través de una publicidad en Instagram de un coleccionables del diario el País llamado “El Arte de Disney” y que recoge en 15 entregas el trabajo artístico y toda la información de 15 largometrajes de esta factoría.

Have you ever thought much about the politics of fashion? How can paintings help us understand the social context of fashion throughout history? Is the woman in the famous Arnolfini portrait pregnant or does her dress make it appear that way? This week we chat with Amber Butchart, fashion historian and host of BBC’s ‘Stitch in Time’ series, about the hidden meanings we can glean from the fashions in paintings. This episode's guest: Amber Butchart is a fashion historian exploring the intersections between dress, politics and culture. She began her career as the Head Buyer for Beyond Retro, where she also helped establish their print and design archive. Amber went on to presented the six-part BBC series ‘A Stitch in Time’ wherein she explored the stories of figures in paintings via the clothing they wore. She’s also written four books on fashion for the British Library, Thames & Hudson, and the Octopus Publishing Group on nautical fashion, fashion in film, and fashion illustration.

DH Lawrence was, in the words of Geoff Dyer, a man with thin wrists and thick trousers. He was also the author of Women in Love, Sons and Lovers and Lady Chatterley's Lover. But poet and performer John Hegley has chosen him above all for the quality of his poetry, an admiration presenter Matthew Parris also shares. Lawrence died aged just 44. An obituary at the time reckoned he was 'a rebel against all the accepted values of modern civilization'. Certainly his life - born in Eastwood, Notts, became a teacher only to run off with a German-born mother of three to embark on his 'savage pilgrimage' around the world - was unpredictable. As indeed was this programme, recorded in front of an audience at the Arnolfini in Bristol, with John Hegley using both music and verse to make his point. Geoff Dyer, the author of Out of Sheer Rage, makes the case that Lawrence's unpredictability was a sign of strength, and that his best work lies in his letters and not his books. The producer is Miles Warde.

National Gallery of Australia | Audio Tour | George.W.Lambert Retrospective

This painting presents a group of people in a reflected image. They stand in the low-beamed living-room of Belwethers, a cottage in the village of Cranleigh. The former country cottage of Mrs Halford, Lambert’s patron and friend, had been taken over by her daughter Mary and her son-in-law Sir Edmund Davis after her death in 1915. Sir Edmund stands at the window in the background; his wife, dressed in black, sits at the table; a maid serves tea; Amy Lambert, dressed in blue, stands; Sir Edmund’s sister-in-law Amy Halford sits with her hands on her lap; and the artist looks out of the image in the foreground. The oak beams in the ceiling take up half the picture and become, in the reflection, curved instead of straight lines, causing the design to flow in a circle – disturbing the very solidity of the room. It is a jewel-like piece of painting, with the lustre of a looking-glass, in which Lambert explored the distinction between how things appear in the picture or in a mirror, or how they are in life itself. He placed the artist within the painting on a separate plane from the other people within the scene, and showed him ignoring them and looking out to the viewer – observing the entire scene through a convex mirror. His hand thrusts forward, without a brush, spread wide as it would when distorted in a mirror. In 1916 Lambert visited Cranleigh, Surrey, when his son Constant became seriously ill with osteomyelitis while he was a scholarship pupil at Christ’s Hospital school in Horsham, West Sussex. (Cranleigh is situated halfway between Guildford and Horsham.) Constant’s condition was so grave that Lambert and Amy moved to Cranleigh to be near him. To pass the time, and determined not to give way to brooding over his sick son, Lambert painted The convex mirror , the reflection of a room in this cottage. Yet Lambert captured some of his sadness at the death of Mrs Halford (who acted as a grandmother to his children) and his anxiety over his son’s illness, as well as the universal unease and apprehension created by the First World War, in the way he presented the world through a convex mirror – disturbed and distorted. Lambert carefully constructed the painting, drawing the lines of the beams and other structural elements onto the wood panel before commencing the painting. He used fine brushes to convey the scene. In addition to his masterful depiction of the illusion of a room viewed through a convex mirror, he also captured a soft light coming through the windows and lighting up the tablecloth and the cane chair. Lambert saluted the sixteenth-century Italian mannerist painter Parmigianino’s illusionist tour-de-force, Self-portrait in a convex mirr or 1523–24 (Kunsthistorisches Museum, Vienna) in this painting. Like Parmigianino Lambert painted his work by looking at himself (and the others in the room) in a curved mirror and then recreating the effect. As in Parmigianino’s work, he captured the way the mirror widens the scene, enlarging everything nearby and making everything distant seem further away. But most significantly, like the Italian master, he created a display of virtuosity. Many artists have included a convex mirror in their work, such as van Eyck in The Arnolfini portrait 1434 (National Gallery, London) in which the mirror probably reflects the painter himself; Quentin Massys in The moneylender and his wife 1514 (Musée du Louvre, Paris), which reflects the artist and the outer world into the picture; and Caravaggio in Martha and Mary Magdalene c.1598 (Detroit Institute of Arts, Michigan), in which the artist used the mirror to enable Martha to reproach Mary for her vanity. The mirror device was fashionable at the turn of the century, and frequently used by artists such as William Orpen. Orpen depicted himself reflected in a convex mirror on the wall behind his subjects in both The mirror 1900 (Tate, London) and A Bloomsbury family 1907 (Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art, Edinburgh) – a device Orpen borrowed from van Eyck’s TheArnolfini portrait , which he would have known in the National Gallery. Likewise, genteel interiors, universes of the private individual, were popular subjects during this period, particularly in the exhibitions of the New English Art Club. In this work, Lambert depicted mistresses and maids, and the daily domestic ritual of tea. He depicted people reading and reflecting in the comfort of familiar surroundings. He also showed the master looking out the window and the wider world beyond. And he presented sun coming through the windows and lighting up the interior. Thea Proctor wrote in The Home on 1 July 1930 that The convex mirror ‘has the exquisite finish of the Dutch Masters, and shows that a present-day artist could also paint small things in a large manner’.
