Further Figuring It Out.
Maussion's very choice of the nude recalls the most classic of strategies within the tradition of easel painting, but as we have seen it is one mediated by the mechanical effects of photography and the distance of memory.
William Jeffrett, 1995.
Charles Maussion. SCVA/UEA Norwich.
Life Drawing/The Contested Sociological Subject/Corporeal Gaze.
Drawing as an extended method of seeing and of recording experience.
Drawing From Life as Ideas and Process.
We have schooled ourselves to see, by acquiring the capacity to depict ourselves.
The human body, drawings/depictions seen through concentrations of our personal/private selves.
Alberto Giacometti. 1901-1966.
Standing Nude, 1955.
Sainsbury Centre, UEA Norwich.
The body as the instrument of our emotions and our sensuality.
In all its starkness this figure is a most sensitive and complicated mechanism. The naked human is seen as a symbol of existence achieved through observation of painful acuteness.
Herbert Boeckl. 1894-1966.
All Boeckl's life-drawings are distinguished by a strong physical presence. He is truly concerned with interpreting life in terms of human bodies, of the beauty of functioning muscle and bone and with the tactile aspects of flesh, as well as the knowledge of what lies beneath it. His nudes speak a physical language. He uses charcoal as a technical means to best achieve lucidity.
Boeckl is not concerned with 'beauty of line' as his predecessors Klimt and Schiele were, he always sees the body in the context of space and draws 'from within'. He builds up his figures from a structural core, the surface of his forms take on a strongly moulded, modelled aspect through a great economy of means.
