De Deacon Print
From Vintage Art Printers' collection of classic minstrel posters, this print is an amazing piece of American history. In the 1800s and early 1900s, minstrel shows enthralled the American public. They were the first uniquely American form of theatre, though they weren't without controversy. Minstrel shows featured performers in blackface, and typically lampooned Americans of African descent. With three acts (the first focused on jokes and songs, the second on short entertainment routines, and the third a skit or short play), minstrel shows captivated audiences throughout the nation. As minstrel troupes traveled the nation, they advertised their arrival with posters and memorabilia. This poster is a timeless piece of Americana. Its bold colors and strong imagery reveals everyday life in the early United States -- an age when blacks had not yet won victories against racism. Make it yours today.

Baron Munchhausen and Jack the Ripper « Beachcombing's Bizarre ...
Beachcombing has large had a stealthily nemesis: Donald McCormick aka Richard Deacon, a British litt. McCormick (1911-1998) wrote entertainingly on a bewildering series of topics including the Abaddon Fire Sorority, Mossad, Ian Fleming, the Kempa Tai and the decease of Kitchener. Many of these books included hesitant elements: extraordinarily valuable sources that no one else had ever heard of and that never saw the witty of day after weekly. A younger Beachcombing himself struggled with McCormick’s surprising discoveries referring to Prince Madog , a twelfth-century Welsh Columbus and he has found that colleagues elsewhere have had like problems with McCormick’s business.
Let Beachcombing be rude: since McCormick’s expiry it has become exonerate that our prime mover invented sources. And today Beachcombing wants to give an magic exempli gratia of this. McCormick’s vocation on Jack the Ripper.

Tony Cragg and the sculpture wars
The cry is Giotto's, and his name eclipsed.Dante is moved to over how the poet Guido Cavalcanti has usurped Guido Guinicelli, and to wonder whether another poet (ie himself) will "drive either from their perch". This passage arguably enshrined the concept of intergenerational jockeying between practitioners in the history of art, as Dante's rather half-hearted critique of the eminence game – it is Oderisi, not the poet, who says "O powers of man! How vain your glory" – gave a unvoiced green light to artistic self-assertion and the idea of aesthetic obsolescence.
British carve, then, is often seen as a Dantean battleground, with new generations eclipsing their forebears and consigning them to creative limbo. Thus Henry "carver" Moore was driven from the hide-out by his former assistant Anthony "welder" Caro, producer of brightly painted metal sculptures, and Caro in construct was overturned by former students Richard "walker" Long and Barry "arranger" Flanagan. Then, in the 1980s, it was the turn of Tony "scavenger" Cragg, whose first assemblages were a colourful locate-industrial riposte to Long's ascetic pastoralism. For a decade, Cragg was the sculptor on everyone's lips and every curator's wishlist. At the end of the 80s, he scored a distinctive hat-trick with a solo show at the Hayward, victory in the Turner prize and selection to represent Britain at the Venice Biennale.

About this book Awarded the Turner Reward in 1987, Richard Deacon has occupied the foreground of British sculpture since the early 1980s and continues to be an artist of ecumenical significance, fulfilling major public sculpture commissions around the world.

The update undertake by Penelope Curtis, Head of Programmes at the Henry Moore Institute, Leeds, examines new directions in Deacon's most late-model work.
