Objects artists
Peter Blake:
Date of Birth: 25 June 1932
Nationality: British
Peter Blake was trained in the Royal College Of Art.
Date of Birth: 25 June 1932
Nationality: British
Peter Blake was trained in the Royal College Of Art.
Sir Peter Thomas Blake, CBE, RDI, RA (born 25 June 1932) is an English pop artist, best known for his design of the sleeve for the Beatles' album Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. He lives in Chiswick, London, UK.
Sir Peter Blake's work reflects his fascination with all streams of popular culture, and the beauty to be found in everyday objects and surroundings. Many of his works feature found printed materials such as photographs, comic strips or advertising texts, combined with bold geometric patterns and the use of primary colours. The works perfectly capture the effervescent and optimistic ethos of the sixties, but are also strikingly fresh and contemporary. There is also a strain of sentimentality and nostalgia running throughout his work, with particular focus towards childhood innocence and reminiscence, as can be seen clearly in his recent Alphabet series.
Joseph Cornell:
Date Of Birth: December 24, 1903
Date Of Death: December 29, 1972 aged 69
Joseph Cornell was born in Nyack, New York, American artist and sculptor, one of the pioneers and most celebrated exponents of assemblage. Cornell's most characteristic art works were boxed assemblages created from found objects. These are simple boxes, usually fronted with a glass pane, in which he arranged surprising collections of photographs or Victorian bric a brac, in a way that combines the formal austerity of Constructivism with the lively fantasy of Surrealism. Many of his boxes, such as the famous Medici Slot Machine boxes, are interactive and are meant to be handled.
Lisa Milroy:
Date of Birth: 1959, Vancouver
Nationality: British
Lisa Milroy is a Anglo-Canadian painter who lives and works in the UK. Lisa Milroy was born in 1959 and raised in Vancouver, Canada. She moved to London in 1979 to study at Goldsmiths College. Her subsequent series of paintings of objects in groups (rows, clusters, layers or grids) borrowed the language of hardware catalogues, shop display windows and formal arrangements in art and photography, while yet creating autonomous visual statements. Sometimes her arrangement of objects was influenced by their functional identity, so that, for example, stamps become islands for the eyes to travel between or wheels speed forward at an unstoppable visual pace.
