Sitting in Bars with Cakes recounts Audreys year

a Sticky Maple Kiss Cake to a Bitter Chocolate Dump

essay and tongue-in-cheek lesson about picking up
boys in bars.

who has ever put themselves out there in hope of
finding true love.

century, Richard Hamilton (19222011) continued


to experiment and innovate over a 60year career.

This book spans the full scope of Hamiltons


output, exploring his relationship to design,
painting, photography, and television, as well as
his engagement and collaborations with other
artists. Featured here are seminal works such as
the eradefining Just what is it that makes todays
homes so different, so appealing? (1956) and the
depiction of Mick Jagger in the iconic Swingeing
London 67, as well as many other images. The
book also showcases wider contemporary
issues and political subjects in Hamiltons work,
including the Kent State shootings and the IRA
dirty protests. Including more than 250 fullcolor

and artists associated with this seaside

Cornwall town from 1915 to 1965. The authors


investigate how the art of St.Ives drew upon two
key strands of modern art: the utopian ideal of
constructivism that began in Moscow in the 1910s
and continued through Berlin and Paris between
the world wars, and the tradition of craft and the
handmade. Major works by leading St. Ives artists
such as Peter Lanyon, Barbara Hepworth, and
Ben Nicholson are placed alongside the work of
their contemporaries from elsewhere in Europe,
North America, and beyond.

Mondrian (18721944) speaks to his pioneering

role in abstract art, but also to the complex relationship

9 781849 762656

between his artworks, the space around them, and the


belief that they were conceived to inspire. His studios in
Amsterdam, Paris, and New York reflect different stages
of the painters way of thinking as well as his evolving
intentions. Each studio was designed to allow the artist
to perform a clearly defined intellectual and social role.
An eye-opening look into the spaces that inspired him,
this book also explores Mondrians broader relationship
with architecture and urbanism, particularly through a
comparison of his earlier Parisian works and those made
in the frenetic modern cityscape of New York. Vividly

ne of the most significant filmmakers of


modern times (Ivans Childhood, Andrei

Rublev, Solaris, The Mirror, and Stalker), Andrei

Tarkovsky (19321986) was hugely influenced


by the poems of his father, Arsenii (19071989).
Rendered here for the first time in English, the
poems echo through many of the films and
illuminate the creative relationship between
father and son. While his sons place in film
history is acknowledged worldwide, Arsenii, who
fell afoul of Soviet censorship, is still littleknown
outside Russia. The 148 poems translated here
explore universal themes such as love, nature,
family, aging, war, and memory, and place the
poetry within the context of the father/son and
poet/filmmaker relationship that so dominates the
Tarkovsky story.

childhood in Worcestershire, an art-school education,


and subsequent obsessions. It may be read in the light,
or perhaps one should say in the shadow of its political
history. So begins Tess Jarays remarkable memoir.
Whether providing insights into the mind of an artist or
recounting the eccentricities of Jarays singular childhood, The Blue Cupboard is a life-affirming testimonial
to a creative existence. A painter and printmaker whose
work is characterized by an enigmatic interaction of
forms and colors, Jaray creates patterns that suggest
spatial ambiguities and shifting structures that work on
the viewers perceptions in subtle ways. Her artworks
can be found in many public collections, and her
unique pavement designs can be seen in several cities
across England.
Tess Jaray studied at St. Martins School of Art and the
Slade School of Fine Art, University College London,
where she later taught for many years.
