    Edward Smith

In almost all of these testimonies, it’s clear that He (El Shaddai) wanted...

  • Magical Thinking
    Edward Lucie-Smith
    The word ’avant-garde’, so much used in connection with the various manifestations of contemporary art, is starting to have a strange, ironic ring to it. One might even claim that it is starting to signify what is behind the times, rather than in front of them. Like all such terms, it is in fact a metaphor, rather than a direct description. Borrowed from old-fashioned military ...

  • Rembrandt and Turner
    Edward Lucie-Smith
    The Rembrandt and Turner exhibitions, one at London’s National Gallery, the other at Tate Britain, are populist homages to two of the undoubted giants of the European cultural tradition.

  • Goya
    Edward Lucie-Smith
    What is highly original is the fact that these drawings, often extremely ambiguous in meaning, form a meditative sequence, not apparently intended for public consumption, but entirely selfreflexive. They record the artist’s dreams and fantasies, but strictly for his own contemplation. As such they represent a major psychological breakthrough, a next step forward from the late s...

    Edward Lucie-Smith
    He uses elaborate systems of arbitrary rules to regulate his patterns of markings - the absolute opposite of the freewheeling calligraphy typical of Abstract Expressionist predecessors such as Jackson Pollock. Where images are present, they are often mirrored or doubled. Or else camouflaged and concealed. His paintings therefore take on the character of being not simply objects...
