Royal Academy’s Summer Exhibition – Grayson Perry – #Art #RA
I
went to the preview of the RA summer exhibition at the weekend – it was
full of the usual high and low points. Possibly the glass of Pimms was
the most exciting thing…
What the critics like: You’ll find great pieces if you keep your eyes peeled, says Rachel Campbell-Johnston in The Times. This is a vast messy reflection of what is going on in artists’ studios all over Britain. In an art world dominated by meticulously curated exhibitions that instruct you what to think, “we should learn simply to love it for that”.Read more: http://www.theweek.co.uk/art/53489/royal-academys-summer-exhibition-lucky-dip#ixzz2VpwUxdzx
Really enjoyed the Grayson Perry textile wall hangings, not my thing really but garishly fun.
In 2012 Grayson Perry made documentary
series ‘All in the Best Possible Taste with Grayson Perry’, about class
“taste” variables, for Channel 4. Each episode showed him living among
the “classes” in different towns, he explored both male and female
culture in each “league” and focused on what they buy, creating a
juxtaposition of ‘good taste’ and ‘bad taste’. The documentary was in
three parts: “Working Class Taste,” and “Middle Class Taste,” and “Upper
Class Taste.” The conclusion of the documentaries was one of ‘so what’
– bad taste could be good taste and good taste could be bad taste, it
is all subjective and above criticism. He photographed the people he came into
contact with and illustrated his experiences. These sketches were then
developed using Photoshop to create finished image files that were then
processed to create final tapestries, which were woven on a computer
controlled loom in Flanders. The contents he says, were partly inspired
by William Hogarth’s series of small paintings “A Rake’s Progress”
depicting 18th century society at the time (1732-33).
Of the tapestries, Perry says,
Why not get some art delivered in the post for only £1.00 ?The Vanity of Small Differences consists of six tapestries that tell the story of Tim Rakewell. Some of the characters, incidents and objects I have included I encountered whilst filming All in the Best Possible Taste. The tapestries tell a story of class mobility. I think nothing has such a strong influence on our aesthetic taste as the social class we grow up in.

Old images and ideas revisited and recycled – re-executed in print and paint. A body of work based around “Beauty and the Beast” a classic tale of love, rejection and prejudice, where the beauty is the beast and the beast is the beauty. An allegory, a symbolic representation or a metaphor for my feelings towards ART.
