Timothy Hyman: German Drawing, Part One: Cranach and His Times | |
| Date: | Thursday, 1 May 2008 |
| Time: | 00:00:00–18:30:00 |
| To coincide with the Royal Academy’s current exhibition of Lucas Cranach (1472 – 1553), Timothy Hyman will explore his relation to his great contemporaries: Grunewald, Altdorfer, and Durer. Cranach is in some respects the humorous counterpart to their more visionary and apocalyptic imagery. Seen together, their drawings offer a wonderful alternative to the Florentine / French mainstream. | |

Timothy Hyman: Dexter Dalwood: The Torn Line and the Cut Up | |
| Date: | Thursday, 15 May 2008 |
| Time: | 00:00:00–18:30:00 |
| The recent work of Dexter Dalwood could be seen as a retrieval of ‘History Painting’ – but nearly always without figures, and constructed always as a fragmentary collage, out of culturally disparate imagery. Strongly interested in drawing, he will talk about some of the problems and procedures of his own practice. Trained at St Martin’s and the RCA, with a stint at Baroda between, Dalwood has emerged as one of the most prominent British painters of his generation. He exhibits at Gagosian, in London and in New York. | |

Timothy Hyman: German Drawing, Part 2: Beckmann and His Times | |
| Date: | Thursday, 29 May 2008 |
| Time: | 00:00:00–18:30:00 |
| The painter Max Beckmann (1884 – 1950) saw his own life work unfolding as a five act drama, dominated by two world wars. As a draughtsman he developed within a rich 20th century German tradition that is still relevant. Baselitz’s pronouncement that “All the best German art is ugly art” defines one aspect; but there are also spatial and confessional possibilities undiscovered within Parisian modernism. | |

Liza Dimbleby: I Live Here Now: Writings and Drawings from Glasgow, London and Moscow | |
| Date: | Thursday, 19 June 2008 |
| Time: | 00:00:00–18:30:00 |
| As a student on the Drawing Year, Liza Dimbleby consolidated her practise of making rapid street drawings – sequences that often ran parallel with her writing. As a young PhD student, she’s come to know Moscow intimately, but she now returned as an artist, freighted with memory. In recent years she has continued to explore the meanings of this city wandering – which might be characterised as a “poetry of pleasurable displacement”. Her book, I Live Here Now, has been published this spring. | |
