Barbara Isn’t Dying

Barbara Isn’t Dying

Alina Bronsky

Europa Editions (UK) Ltd
2025
pokkari
A bittersweet and hilarious novel about a marriage whose decades-old routine is suddenly upended. Walter Schmidt has lived his whole life within the narrow, comfortable confines of traditional gender roles: he has made it to retirement without learning how to fry an egg or use a vacuum cleaner. After all, he could always count on his wife, Barbara. But, when one morning she can’t —or won’t! —get up from bed anymore, everything changes. With biting humour and great warmth, Alina Bronsky writes about how Walter, nearing the end of his life, is suddenly forced to reinvent himself as a caregiver and househusband, and become the caring partner he never was in all his years with Barbara. Little by little, Walter’s rough facade begins to crumble, and with it his old certainties about his life and family.

«Offering a range of insightful readings of texts by Honigmann, this volume is engaging and compelling. It will resonate strongly with those readers familiar with Honigmann, deepening their understanding of her work, and will constitute, for others, an urgent invitation to explore her challenging, affecting, and humane œuvre further.» (Professor Emily Jeremiah, Royal Holloway, University of London) «Barbara Honigmann is one of the most incisive and engaging Jewish authors writing in German today. This collection of original essays, many of which illuminate the Jewish dimension of her texts, offers a superb introduction to the writer and raises the analysis of her work to new levels.» (Katja Garloff, Professor of German and Humanities, Reed College) This is the first full-length book in English devoted to the work of one of the most widely read and intriguing contemporary German-language writers. Barbara Honigmann, born in East Berlin in 1949 and a resident of Strasbourg since 1986, treats the major themes of our time from the special perspective of a practising Jewish woman. Her seemingly simple language navigates and reveals hidden complexities, an effect mirrored in her masterly use of form. This book covers Honigmann’s entire œuvre, from her first breakthrough success to her most recent collection of essays and speeches. It includes detailed accounts of form and style, as well as wide-ranging discussions of themes and contexts. Approaching Honigmann’s work from a variety of angles, including aesthetic analysis, feminist and memory studies, the literary exploration of space, and the investigation of autofiction, the essays collected here discuss Honigmann’s unique voice and her treatment of identity and belonging, Jewishness across generations, migration and multiculturalism, postmemory and trauma, language and transcendence. The academic chapters in this volume are complemented by Honigmann’s translation of an installation text by Chantal Akerman, an interview the book’s editors conducted with the author in December 2021, and an extensive bibliography.

In paying close attention to the various aspects of her skilfully executed performances, this book offers fresh insights into Stanwyck's career and star persona.

Lund Humphries Publishers Ltd
2011

Celebrating the generous gift of Barbara Hepworth's plasters to The Hepworth Wakefield by the Hepworth Estate, this groundbreaking publication combines a fully illustrated catalogue of the sculptor's surviving prototypes in plaster, and occasionally aluminium, with a detailed analysis of her working methods and a comprehensive history of her work in bronze. In addition, insights into the building which will be home to the collection are provided through essays exploring the history of The Hepworth and, in a contribution by David Chipperfield, the design of the new museum by his architectural practice. A fascinating account of the sculptor's connections with Wakefield Art Gallery also features. The Hepworth's collection of over 40 unique, unknown sculptures are the surviving working models from which editions of bronzes were cast.

The majority are original plasters on which the artist worked with her own hands and to scale. Providing a unique insight into Hepworth's working processes, on which little has been written, Barbara Hepworth: The Plasters will enhance appreciation of her work as a whole. Drawing extensively on archival records and photographs, this publication is an important source for information about a significant collection of work, the gallery which houses it and Hepworth in general.

Lund Humphries Publishers Ltd
2015

Newly published in paperback to coincide with the Barbara Hepworth retrospective exhibition at Tate Britain in 2015, this fascinating book combines a fully illustrated catalogue of the sculptor's surviving prototypes in plaster (and a number also in aluminium and wood), generously gifted to The Hepworth Wakefield by the Hepworth Estate, with a detailed analysis of her working methods and a comprehensive history of her work in bronze. The Hepworth's collection of over forty unique, unknown sculptures are the surviving working models from which editions of bronzes were cast. They range in size from works that can be held in the hand to monumental sculptures, including the Winged Figure for John Lewis's Oxford Street headquarters. The majority are original plasters on which the artist worked with her own hands and to scale. It was in plaster that Hepworth experimented most as she made the transition from stone and wood to bronze, testing the potential of her new material as she went. Sophie Bowness's illuminating text describes the different means by which this increasingly important artist made her plaster works, and why. Drawing extensively on archival records and photographs, this publication is an important source of information about a significant collection of work, the gallery which houses it and Hepworth in general. The catalogue illuminates the histories of Hepworth's sculptures through fascinating archival photographs, which demonstrate everything from the varied tools used by Hepworth to the logistical problems of transporting her monumental pieces through the narrow streets of St Ives. The book provides a much-needed account of Hepworth's studio practice, her relations with foundries, and the evolution of her public commissions.

The London lives of Barbara and Crichie Dennison and their acquaintances Flora and Fred Peachley are juxtaposed with rural Rimton, where Barbara's long-time companion and village blacksmith Dave Reid resides with the pair's foster parents, Sarah and Dan Farmer. Book One introduces the Dennisons, who, despite being newly married are already aware of a widening chasm between them. Barely suppressed frictions are only exacerbated by the arrival of Dave in London, who is privately harbouring romantic feelings for Barbara. In Book Two, the reader meets the Peachleys, whose marriage is also in crisis following the loss of their savings in the collapse of Dinkermanns bank. At the behest of his wife, Fred takes on extra work as a translator to pay the rent on their house in the upmarket Hendon. When he leaves the house to post an advert for his services, the largely disparate lives of the Dennisons and Peachleys collide when Crichie calls by the house and is compelled by Flora's polished femininity and staunch conservatism. The pair begin having an affair ... - From the Introduction

Barbara Hepworth: The Sculptor in the Studio

Sophie Bowness

Tate Publishing
2017
nidottu
Barbara Hepworth: The Sculptor in the Studio is the first study devoted to Hepworth's St Ives studio in which the centrality of Trewyn Studio and garden to her art and life is brought to the fore. 'It affects my whole life & work most profoundly', she wrote to a friend in 1949 shortly before acquiring it. A history and a portrait of a unique place, the book illuminates the ways in which the place and the work are bound together. It explores Hepworth's working environment and the development of her practice over a period of 25 years. The studio, and especially the garden that Hepworth shaped, was the primary and ideal context in which her sculptures were viewed. Following Hepworth's death in 1975, Trewyn Studio was opened as the Barbara Hepworth Museum and Sculpture Garden, fulfilling the hopes she had expressed at the end of her life. The adaptation of Hepworth's studio-home to create the Museum is examined in detail. The Museum was given to the Tate Gallery in 1980, becoming the first of Tate's outstations and helping to lay the foundations for Tate St Ives. It contains the largest group of Hepworth's works, permanently on display in the place in which they were created. Here the visitor is closest to Hepworth's work and to the sources of her inspiration.

Barbara Hepworth: Strings

Barbara Hepworth: Strings

Stephen Feeke; Michael Regan; Eleanor Clayton; Luke Farey

Piano Nobile Publications
2025
sidottu
Barbara Hepworth: Strings is the first publication dedicated to the artist’s stringed sculptures, paintings and drawings. In 1939, Hepworth (1903–1975) made her first sculpture threaded with strings. For the rest of her career, she intermittently combined string with works made from plaster, wood, metal and stone. These were some of her most personally distinctive artistic achievements. Coinciding with the fiftieth anniversary of the artist’s death, Barbara Hepworth: Strings provides for the first time a comprehensive thematic account of string in the artist’s work, exploring the different ways that she used it and the symbolism she invested it with. This publication includes a fully-illustrated catalogue of Piano Nobile’s accompanying exhibition. It features essays by some of the leading specialists on Hepworth’s work. The exhibition co-curator Michael Regan offers a personal response to the stringed sculptures and considers their affective quality. In his essay, Dr Stephen Feeke explores fresh perspectives and previously unpublished source materials relating to Hepworth and string. A further text by Eleanor Clayton, senior curator at The Hepworth Wakefield, gives a close reading of the most significant stringed works including the artist’s celebrated commission for John Lewis’s flagship store on Oxford Street. The book also includes a comprehensive, illustrated list of Hepworth’s stringed sculptures.

The Lammermuir Hills have been an important trade route between Scotland and England for generations, as well as an effective barrier when necessary. Drawn by the long history of south-eastern Scotland and the many conflicting elements in play in its natural environment – among them wind farms, pylons, forestry plantations, grouse moors and sheep – the distinguished Scottish painter and printmaker Barbara Rae CBE RA has made numerous studies of these wild expanses. This handsome volume reproduces a wide selection of her intensely colourful images with accompanying photographs and maps, and texts by the art critic Duncan Macmillan, Emeritus Professor of the History of Scottish Art at the University of Edinburgh, and Maureen Barrie, who worked for many years at National Museums Scotland.
