* BRUCE TIPPETT (BRITISH 1933 - 2017), LANDSCAPE WITH REEDS charcoal on paper, signed and dated '08mounted, framed and under glassimage size 43cm x 53cm, overall size 75cm x 82cm Note: Bruce Tippett was a British born artist who was championed by Philip Granville (Lord's Gallery, London) and the legendary Betty Parsons (Betty Parsons Gallery, New York) and others. Jane England writes in her 1992 catalogue : "In 1957, he (Tippett) saw Japanese brush paintings for the first time at the British Museum (which now houses nine Bruce Tippett drawings). He recalls now that 'Something awoke in me and I entered another realm'. The works of the Japanese calligraphers inspired him by their mixture of spontaneity and contemplation. Like the Zen masters, Tippett achieved spontaneity by constantly paring down the image and concentrating on its essential spirit, with no sign of the struggle involved. When Tippett first saw a work by Hartung at Gimpel Fils in May 1958, he was struck by the similarities of their respective calligraphic styles. These similarities had different origins. In Tippett's case the energetic strokes and lines came from his early drawings of reeds and stakes in marsh landscapes and the studies he had made of building structures, whereas Hartung's expressive calligraphy came from his early experiments with automatism." Alan Bowness pointed out in his "Portrait of the Artist" (1958) that "having made the first steps on his own Tippett realized that the calligraphic paintings of Hartung pointed in the direction he wished to go but by the end of 1957 Tippett had reached something that was recognizably an original manner, and the drawings done then and at the beginning of this year have a remarkable ease and assurance." After Peggy Guggenheim closed her Art of This Century Gallery in 1947, Parsons was one of only a very few gallery owners to promote avant-garde American art at a time when the commercial demand for it was minuscule. The Betty Parsons Gallery was also, for a considerable time, the only gallery in the US which promoted and supported Abstract Expressionism. Parsons played a major and significant role in establishing New York as the centre of the art world and Jackson Pollock, Mark Rothko, William Congdon, Clyfford Still, Theodorus Stamos, Ellsworth Kelly, Hedda Sterne, Forrest Bess, Michael Loew, Lyman Kipp, Judith Godwin, Tony Smith, Robert Rauschenberg, Barnett Newman and many other artists owed much to Betty Parsons. Bruce Tippett first visited New York in 1965 when Dorothy Miller bought one of his paintings for MOMA. He met Betty Parsons at the Venice Biennale in 1966 and immediately afterwards she visited his studio in Rome and bought several paintings and drawings for her gallery. Bruce Tippett exhibited regularly at The Betty Parsons Gallery (New York) from 1967 and had his last solo show there in 1981, the year before Betty Parsons died. Bruce Tippett continued to exhibit in the US and the UK and even more frequently in Italy and France. He died in France in 2017, where he had lived and worked since 2005. His work is held in some of the most important collections in the US and Europe including The Louvre (Paris), The British Museum (London), Galleria Nazionale d’Arte Moderna (Rome) and MOMA (New York), yet in his country of birth, his work remains relatively unknown.

After National Service, he studied at Leeds College of Art and then at Edinburgh College of Art (ECA) where he was awarded post-graduate and major travel scholarships. On return from France and Italy he was invited to join the staff of ECA, where he taught drawing and painting from 1956 until 1988. In 1959 he was commissioned to paint the mural Christ in Glory in the Scottish Episcopal Church, St Columba-by-the-Castle, Edinburgh. A member of the Royal Scottish Academy (RSA) and the Royal Scottish Society of Painters in Watercolour (RSW), he served as President of the Society of Scottish Artists, (SSA) 1976-79. A life-long bird watcher and naturalist (at age 17 he was at the inaugural meeting of the Wharfdale Naturalists Society in 1945), he was a founder member of the Society of Wildlife Artists (SWLA). He led courses in Switzerland, Crete, the Falklands and Galapagos Islands, in Orkney and at Nature in Art in Gloucestershire, and in 1989 he began a Seabird Drawing course based at North Berwick. Now named after him, this has continued each year since, attracting participants from many parts of the world. He took part in projects with the Artists for Nature Foundation (ANF) in Holland, Poland, Spain, Ireland, India, Portugal and Israel, and in SWLA/Forestry Commission projects in the New Forest and in the oak woods in the west of Scotland. In 1991 he was filmed in Shetland for the Granada TV production “Portrait of the Wild – Summer‘. John Busby illustrated over 35 books about birds and animals, mostly about behaviour, ranging from seabirds and garden birds to tigers and otters, plus a book of poems by Kenneth Steven (Wild Horses) and many of the illustrations in The RSPB Anthology of Wildlife Poetry. His own books are mentioned elsewhere but also include a booklet Landscapes at the Edge of the Sea in 2010 with his rock pool paintings, and another for the first Curious Eye exhibition which he curated at the RSA in 2007. In 2009 he was declared "Master Wildlife Artist" by the Leigh Yawkey Woodson Art Museum in Wisconsin USA. He exhibited widely both at home and abroad and had a major retrospective exhibition at Bradford City Art Gallery in 1999/2000. More recently a retrospective exhibition, planned before his death, was held at Nature in Art, Gloucester in August 2015, and two large exhibitions to celebrate his landscapes (at the Royal Scottish Academy) and drawings (at The Scottish Gallery) were held in Edinburgh in June 2016, with another at the Wildlife Art Gallery in Lavenham, Suffolk in November 2017. In 2019 a major exhibition of his paintings was held during the Edinburgh Arts Festival, 29th July to 2nd September at the Open Eye Gallery in Edinburgh.

* ANDREW HAY (SCOTTISH 1944 - 2024), FEMALE PORTRAIT acrylic on boardframedimage 55.5cm x 43cm, overall 70cm x 57.5cmNote: Having started to paint at the age of 39, within a year the People's Palace Museum, Glasgow had purchased ten paintings and had given Hay his first solo exhibition. Since then his works have been included in numerous public and private collections. His work deals with both narrative and nature, sometimes subverting one or the other in order to advance his artistic practise. His insistence on invention, freedom and risk affirms continuity in his aesthetic spirit. He used a network of codes, symbols and expressive techniques which played off his collective memory and familiarity of everyday objects and culture from his childhood and juxtaposes them with present day reality. In so doing he embodied them with a new philosophical discourse. Andrew’s work now features in many significant public and private collections and is in the permanent collections of Glasgow's Kelvingrove, Gallery of Modern Art and The People's Palace.

After winning first prize in a portrait painting competition run by the magazine Nursery World, 1953, and exhibiting a prize painting in the Daily Mail competition to celebrate the opening of the Forth Road Bridge, 1964, Mackay took part in many group shows, including the RSA. Among later solo exhibitions were The Italian Institute, Edinburgh, 1991; Torrance Gallery, Edinburgh, 1995, 1998 and 2005; and The Forum, Ocean Terminal, Leith, in aid of the Bethany Trust, 2004.

In sehr guter ErhaltungErläuterungenZehn Jahre lang, von 1943 bis 1953, war die Künstlerin Françoise Gilot (1921-2023) Muse und Lebenspartnerin von Pablo Picasso. Aus dieser Beziehung stammen die beiden Kinder Claude (1947–2023) und Paloma (* 1949). Gilot war Modell für viele Gemälde und Druckgraphiken. Im vorliegenden, von Roger Lacourière gedruckten Blatt, überzeugt Picasso mit einer malerisch umgesetzten Aquatinta seiner Lebensgefährtin. Das Blatt wurde am 24. Juni 1947 gedruckt, wenige Wochen nach der Geburt des gemeinsamen Sohnes Claude (15. Mai 1947). So kann die Graphik als sehr persönliche und poetische Huldigung an seine Geliebte und die Mutter des gemeinsamen Kindes verstanden werden.MWST / VATMehrwertsteuer auf dem Zuschalgspreis plus AufgeldErwartete Ausrufzeit (+/- 15min)12.09.2024; 14:15 h (MEST)VersandkostenSchweiz / Switzerland: CHF 145.-Europa / Europe: CHF 255.-Übrige Länder / Other countries: CHF 330.-

Stephen Willats, British b.1943 - Coree Design, 1965; gouache and pencil on paper, signed and dated lower right 'Willats 1965' and titled upper right, 56 x 76 cm (ARR) Provenance: with Gimpel Fils, London, no.3500 (according to the label attached to the reverse of the frame) Note: Stephen Willats is a seminal figure in British conceptual art. His work focuses on the intersection of art, sociology, and science. Through a diverse range of media including sculpture, photography, installation, furniture and clothing, Willats investigates how societal structures influence individual behavior, often inviting audience participation to blur the boundaries between observer and observed. Through these interdisciplinary approaches and community collaboration, Willats continues to challenge perceptions of art's role in shaping our understanding of the world. In 1965 Willats founded the magazine 'Control', encouraging discussions surrounding artist practices. The magazine has documented the works and ideas of many artists including Helen Chadwick, Tony Cragg and Anish Kapoor. The magazine is still in publication today. Earlier this year Victoria Miro exhibited ‘Stephen Willats: Time Tumbler’ which brought important works from the 1970s together with more recent works, celebrating Willats' eightieth birthday and his long-standing relationship with the gallery. His works are held in the collections of the Tate, the National Portrait Gallery, and the Henry Moore Institute.

Stephen Willats, British b.1943 - Doppelganger Suit, 1985; gouache and pen on paper, signed with initials and dated lower right 'SW 85', 63 x 51.7 cm (ARR)Note:Stephen Willats is a seminal figure in British conceptual art. His work focuses on the intersection of art, sociology, and science. Through a diverse range of media including sculpture, photography, installation, furniture and clothing, Willats investigates how societal structures influence individual behavior, often inviting audience participation to blur the boundaries between observer and observed. Through these interdisciplinary approaches and community collaboration, Willats continues to challenge perceptions of art's role in shaping our understanding of the world. In 1965 Willats founded the magazine 'Control', encouraging discussions surrounding artist practices. The magazine has documented the works and ideas of many artists including Helen Chadwick, Tony Cragg and Anish Kapoor. The magazine is still in publication today. Earlier this year Victoria Miro exhibited ‘Stephen Willats: Time Tumbler’ which brought important works from the 1970s together with more recent works, celebrating Willats' eightieth birthday and his long-standing relationship with the gallery. His works are held in the collections of the Tate, the National Portrait Gallery, and the Henry Moore Institute.
Unpublished Muhammad Ali, boxing sport photographs. Over 200 unpublished black and white photos of Muhammad Ali taken during an advertising shoot in London for Amstel Malta c1971. Comprises the original 35mm negatives, original test sheets, black and white 7.5" x 10.5" portrait of Ali with miniature and three 12" x 8.5" later printed photos, one showing Ali with the production crew. Note the images were not printed onto paper at the time. These 208 images follow the event from initially signing the contract, talking to crew and Heineken officials, hair and make-up, chatting with kids, to action poses while the video advert was being shot. Most of the shots depict Ali in his boxing clothing against the white studio backdrop and the quality is crisp to most. There are many very striking informal images captured including those with Ali in thought. The current vendor owned the Film production company commissioned to produce the Muhammad Ali Amstel advert and personally shot the 35mm film footage being offered in the other associated lot. The amateur photos of the event were taken by a colleague at his request and as such it is believed ownership rights therefore lay with the vendor. The vendor has provided a letter formally passing on all of his rights to the photos to the new owner, this will be given to the winning bidder. PLEASE NOTE RWB AUCTIONS DOES NOT PERSONALLY GUARANTEE ANY RIGHTS OFFERED WITH THE SALE OF THESE PHOTOGRAPHS.
