Abstract

The internationally renowned British artist Grayson Perry, winner of the Turner Prize in 2003, is a vivid chronicler of contemporary life. His work abounds with autobiographical references, which can be read in tandem with issues relating to class, taste and the status of artists and artisans. Packed with vivid images, and a number of gatefold pages, this book provides an overview of Perry's fascinating career focusing on his work in a variety of media ranging from ceramic and tapestry to embroidery and print. The acclaimed art historian and biographer Jenny Uglow provides a personal insight into Perry's work, and an interview between Perry and Tim Marlow, the RA's Artistic Director, reveals the many sides of Perry's personality. This book accompanies the exhibition 'Making Meaning', curated by Erin Manns and the first exhibition in a three-year collaboration between The Gallery at Windsor and the Royal Academy.

Abstract

"This is an enormously appealing book about art, and about one of our most recognisable artists. Grayson Perry came to national attention when he accepted the Turner Prize as his alter ego, Clare and wearing his best dress but this funny, unsettling and intimate biography brings us the story of how he grew from a nervous schoolboy, living in fear of his violent stepfather, to a world renowned potter and transvestite."--Publisher's web site.

Abstract

La Monnaie de Paris organise la première grande monographie en France du célèbre artiste britannique Grayson Perry (né en 1960, vit à Londres). Ses œuvres en céramique, en métal, les tapisseries et les gravures sont autant de réflexions ironiques et grinçantes sur des questions universelles telles l'identité, le genre, la classe sociale, la religion et la sexualité. Grayson Perry joue avec sa propre identité qui devient partie intégrante de son œuvre et va au-delà des limites du monde de l'art. Des références autobiographiques - à l'enfance de l'artiste, à sa famille et à son alter ego Claire - vont de pair avec des questions sur l'être et le paraître, la classe sociale et les tendances, et le statut de l'artiste par rapport à celui de l'artisan.

Abstract

"Grayson Perry, renowned for his ceramic vases decorated with shocking, unconventional imagery, rose to fame in 2003 when he won the Turner Prize. Since then, Perry has remained an important voice in the arts and the contemporary discussion of gender--in 2016, he published the critically acclaimed book The Descent of Man. Perry's hard-hitting yet exquisite work, which also includes tapestry, prints, sculpture, and drawing, references his own upbringing and his life as a transvestite while engaging with broader issues, from war and religion to politics and sex. Grayson Perry, now in an expanded and updated edition to cover his work up to 2019, explores Perry's art through a discussion of his major themes and subjects. Jacky Klein's text is complemented by intimate and insightful commentaries on individual pieces by the artist, giving unique access to his imaginative world and creative processes. Over 225 of Perry's works are illustrated, as well as a rich selection of the visual material that has inspired him, from Afghan war rugs, Sumatran batiks, and medieval altarpieces to the paintings of Pieter Bruegel and the American Outsider artist Henry Darger." --Amazon.com

Abstract

Op het eerste gezicht staan de potten van Grayson Perry in de eeuwenoude traditie van klassieke vazen die gedecoreerd zijn met figuren. Ze ogen aantrekkelijk, vol kleur en overladen met plaatjes, inscripties en versiersels. Het venijn zit hem in de aard van de decoraties : ze gaan over uiteenlopende, meer of minder autobiografische thema's, vormgegeven met een bijtende ironie en vol abjecte en confronterende details. Het is vooral de combinatie van de onschuldige, tuttige, handgemaakte decoratieve pot en deze shockerende beelden die opzien baart. De voorstellingen lopen in onderwerp uiteen, van Perry' jeugd in Essex, zijn travestie, tot commentaar op de Britse kunstwereld. Perry maakte begin jaren tachtig deel uit van de Neonaturisten in Londen, een kunsteaarsgroep die tegendraadse, bewust a-modieuze performances hield. In dezelfde geest vervaardigde hij films, maar al snel legde hij zich toe op potten, waarmee hij in 1985 een eerste succesvolle expositie had. Juist het heersende idee dat dergelijk werk geen hoge kunst kan zijn, paste binnen het recalcitrante Neonaturistische gedachtegoed. Vanuit een gelijksoortige visie zijn de geborduurde quilts ontstaan. Daarnaast heeft Perry zich toegelegd op een vorm van anti-celebrity fotografie waarin hij als Claire stralend poseert in zelfgemaakte kostuums. In Guerrilla Tactics, de eerste monografie over Grayson Perry wordt zijn provocerende en veelzijdige oeuvre belicht door critica Louisa Buck en kunsthistorici Marjan Boot en Andrew Wilson.
