Ian McKeever – Henge Paintings

With a career spanning more than five decades, Ian McKeever is one of Britain’s most senior artists working on the international stage. This publication documents the Henge paintings – a series started in 2017 and completed over the course of five years, inspired by prehistoric standing stones in the county of Wiltshire, England, and continuing the artist’s long-standing investigation into the languages and possibilities of abstract painting.Comprising thirty paintings along with numerous works on paper, the genesis of the series was a visit by McKeever to the world-famous neolithic site in the village of Avebury in 2016, where he took black and white photographs of the large stones that form three discrete circles: two smaller ones contained within the largest. Erected some 4500 years ago, Avebury is the largest stone circle in Britain, and forms part of what English Heritage asserts to be ‘a set of neolithic and Bronze Age ceremonial sites that seemingly formed a vast sacred landscape.’Art historian and curator Paul Moorhouse, in his essay commissioned for the publication, describes how McKeever ‘framed each megalith in close-up, their edges visible at the extremity of the resulting images,’ explaining how ‘the experience of moving around Avebury and responding to the huge stones’ monumental presence made an abiding impression that resonated with deep-seated preoccupations.’ McKeever’s resulting body of work is an earnest and considered exploration into how paint can convey universal forces and properties such as mass, gravity and time, and how colour, texture and abstraction can converse with three-dimensional space, form and materiality. The relationship between painting and sculpture in McKeever’s work is discussed by means of an in-conversation between the artist and Dr Jon Wood. ‘My interest in alluding to early megalithic sites in titling the group of paintings Henge paintings,’ says McKeever, ‘was in touching that deeper sense of time, time’s weight, so to speak. How to imbue a painting with its own weight of time, forsake the immediacy of the here and now.’Designed and produced by Tim Harvey, the publication has been printed by Narayana Press in Odder, Denmark. It is published by Anomie, London, with support from Galleri Susanne Ottesen, Copenhagen, and Heather Gaudio Fine Art, New Canaan, Connecticut. The publication accompanies exhibitions of selected works from the Henge paintings at both galleries in 2022.Ian McKeever was born 1946, Withernsea, Yorkshire, UK. He lives and works in Hartgrove, Dorset. McKeever has received numerous awards including the prestigious DAAD scholarship in Berlin 1989/90 and was elected a Royal Academician in 2003. He has held several teaching positions including Guest Professor at the Städel Akademie der Kunst in Frankfurt, Senior Lecturer, Slade, University of London and Visiting Professor at the University of Brighton. He has also published many texts on painting.Recent public solo exhibitions include Ian McKeever / Tony Cragg – Painting and Sculpture, Skulpturenpark Waldfrieden, Wuppertal, Germany (2020); Paintings 1992–2018, Ferens Art Gallery, Hull, UK (2018); Hours of Darkness, Hours of Light, Kunstmuseet i Tønder, Denmark (2015); Between Darkness and Light, National Gallery of the Faroe Islands, Tórshavn, Faroe Islands (2015); Hours of Darkness, Hours of Light, Kunst-Station Sankt Peter Ko¨ln, Cologne, Germany (2014); and Hartgrove.

Ian McKeever – Against Architecture

British artist Ian McKeever has been working on the international stage for more than five decades. This, his latest publication, documents Against Architecture – an exhibition that had its first incarnation, curated by Robin Klassnik, at Matt’s Gallery, London (5 February to 19 March 2017) before being reconceived and presented as Against Architecture, Remodelled at TheGallery, Arts University Bournemouth (3 November 2023 to 18 January 2024), curated by Violet M McClean as part of TheGallery’s twenty-fifth anniversary celebrations. McKeever was made an AUB Honorary Fellow in 2002 and launched TheGallery’s text + work programme in 2004. The exhibition was McKeever’s first foray into installation art, seeking to explore the relationships between his photo/painted panels and the physical spaces in which they are presented. For this, along with a team of helpers and student volunteers, he built a structure with 3 x 2-inch stud walling timbers and sheets of plasterboard comprising myriad walls, passageways, openings, ledges and platforms, challenging the conventional white cube gallery space and bringing the viewer’s body into heightened dialogue with both their surroundings and the artworks. The works, a series of the acclaimed artist’s abstract paintings combined with ostensibly abstract photographs, pose formal and theoretical questions about perception, visual languages and modes of representation – ideas explored in an essay by Berlin-based English arts writer Mark Prince. The publication features numerous other text contributions: an introduction by Professor Paul Gough, Principal and Vice-Chancellor, AUB; Sue Hubbard, poet, novelist and art critic; Violet M McClean, Curator at TheGallery, AUB; photography graduate Eliza Naden; interior architecture and design graduate Milly Louise Harvey; Associate Professor Dominic Shepherd, AUB; and Ian McKeever himself. Along with illustrations of the artist’s past exhibitions and examples of his works of art, special attention is given to documentation of both iterations of the Against Architecture exhibition, including newly commissioned photographs of Against Architecture, Remodelled at TheGallery by Eliza Naden. The publication, which has been edited by Violet M McClean and Millie Lake, and designed by Warin Wareesangtip, has been produced in an edition of 1000 copies.

The dramatic follow-up to Winston Churchill's wildly successful book, "London to Ladysmith via Pretoria," this volume details the second part of the famous British leader's Second Anglo-Boer War experiences.In this book, Churchill continues his personal narrative-as a correspondent for the Morning Post newspaper-of the second stage of the war, that which took up the first half of the year 1900.Having successfully defended Natal and the Cape Colony against the initial Boer invasion, the British forces then turned the tables and invaded the two Boer republics.Churchill's account closely follows the major part of that invasion force, led by General Ian Hamilton-hence the book's title-and the 400 mile route march by that 11,000-strong army over a period of 55 days from April to June 1900. Along the way, Churchill witnessed in person no less than seven major battles-including those at Israel's Poorte, Houtnek, Welkom, Sand River, Lindley, Doornkop (Florida), Six Mile Spruit, and Diamond Hill. In addition, he provides an account of a further 18 skirmishes, and the occupation of eight towns, including Thabanchu, Winburg, Ventersburg, Kroonstadt, Lindley, Heilbron, Johannesburg, and Pretoria.Along the way-and in typical Churchillian fashion-he describes how he was nearly captured for a second time by Boers, how he was the very first Englishman to enter Johannesburg (disguised a s civilian on a bicycle) among many other fascinating incidents.This new edition has been completely reset, contains all the original maps and illustrations, and has an additional 62 new footnotes which provide background details of personalities, events, and places for the present-day reader. It has also been fully indexed for the first time.

Ian Cinco's Erratica Volume 1 Shift of Essence collects roughly four years of Ian's art (2013-2017), mostly made in sketchbooks and mostly in chronological order. It features absurd, strange, erotic and satirical adult-themed imagery and thoughts. It is a book of unbridled pursuits, raw ideas, flights of fancy, dives into darkness and returns to luminous thought.If you were to find this book and know nothing about Ian Cinco, you'd be justified in thinking there might be something wrong with this guy who likes to draw a lot of self-portraits, or judging by all the T&A he must be some kind of degenerate, and what's up with all the eyeballs? You might not be able to tell if he's deliberately trying to be funny or weird or if he's actually just off. You might think this whole book seems pretty random. If you think all these things you'd at least have to agree this book is aptly named. This book strives to remind humanity that our imperfections and weirdness will always make us more interesting than how the system makes us think and feel. Break the system. Change the way you think. And check out some really cool and weird art.
