Apie Sir William George Gillies

Sir William George Gillies: Gyvenimas Škotijos paveikslėstėje

Pradiniai metai ir išsilavinimas

  • Gimė: Hadingtone, East Lothian, Jungtinėje Karalystėje, 1898 m.
  • Gillies pirmiausia įsidėmėjo Edinburgo meno kolegijoje, tačiau jo studijų pertrauką lėmė tarnyba Pirmojo pasaulinio karo metu karinėse inžinerijos vadų pajėgose.
  • Baigus karą, jis sugrįžo į Edinburgo meno kolegiją užbaigti mokslus, įgavo laipsnį ir vėliau tapo ištikimu dėstytoju šioje instituciją virš pilk plaukų, dirbdamas ten daugiau nei 40 metų.

Meninė plėtra ir įtodiniai veiksmai

  • Gillies meninė kelionė prasidėjo kubizmo tyrinėjimu po to, kai studijavo André Lhote vadovavimu Paryzuje (1923 m.) ir lankėsi Italijoje (1924 m.).
  • Ankstyvieji darbai, tokie kaip „Du puodeliai, saujelė ir vaisius“ (1933 m.), demonstruoja šį įtaką, atskleisdami Cézanne įkvėptą kompoziciją su Braque ir Picasso subtiliomis spalvų paletėmis.
  • Lūžio momentas įvyko 1934 m., kai jis susipažino su Paul Klee kūryba, kuri įkvėpė jį naudoti vaizduotingesnę spalvą ir vaikštiškąsias savybes savo kompozicijose.
  • Jis palaipsniui atsisakė griežto kubizmo, sukurdamas išskirtinę stilių, įsišakantį Škotijos peizažo ir natūralaus mirties (still life) tradicijose.

„1922 grupė“ ir bendradarbiavimo dvasia

  • 1922 m. Gillies kartu su kitais menininkais, įskaitant Williamą Crozier, Williamą Geissler ir Williamą MacTargt, braižė „1922 grupės“ pagrindus.
  • Ši parodų draugija dešimtmetį tarnavo platforma kylančiam Škotijos menininkams pristatyti savo darbus Edinburgo „New Gallery“ galerijoje.
  • Grupė skatino bendruomeniškumą ir inovacijas visoje Škotijos meno scenoje.

Temos ir kūrybos objektai

  • Peizažai: Gillies yra garsėjantis savo Lothian, Fife ir Border regionų Škotijos vaizdinimais. Jis su jautrumu užfiksavo šių kraštlandžių esmę.
  • Natūralūs mirties (still life) paveikslai: Kompozicijos su natūralaus mirties objektais buvo dar viena svarbi jo dėmesio zona; dažnai juose matoma keramika, sukuriama jo jaunesnaja seserys Emma Smith Gillies, kurios ankstyva mirtis 1936 m. jį giliai suplitino.
  • Portretas: Nors savo karjeros pradžioje jis eksperimentavo su portretais, peizažai ir natūralaus mirties paveikslai tapo jo pagrindiniais temų objektais.

Didieji pasiekimai ir pripažinimas

  • Gillies tarnavo Edinburgo meno kolegijos vadovu nuo 1959 m. iki savo pensijos 1966 m.
  • Jo gausi kūryba ir atsidavimas mokymui turėjo gili įtaką keliugenerių Škotijos paveikslėtojų.
  • Jis buvo išrinktas Karališkųjų akademikų (RA) nariu, kas patvirtino jo didelį pripažinimą meno pasaulyje.

Istorinė reikšmė ir palikimas

  • Sir William George Gillies laikomas vienu svarbiausių XX amžiaus Škotijos paveikslėtojų.
  • Jo kūryba padeda tiltinti šios amžiaus pradžios modernizmo ir išskirtinės Škotijos meninės tapatybės spragą.
  • Palikimas: Jo įtaka išsiplėčia už jo paveikslų ribų, formuojant Škotijos meno kryptį per jo mokymą ir mentorystę.
  • Jis mirė 1973 m., palikdamas turtingą kūrybos veislę, kuri ir šiandien yra vertinama dėl savo grožio, jautrumo ir neblėstančios aktualybės.
