The vision of G. F. Watts Om Ra (1817 - 1904) [publ. for the Watts Centenary exhibition, 2 July - 31 October 2004, Watts Gallery, Compton]
No full textG.F. Watts, Physical Energy, Sculpture & Site
No full textMonograph on Watts\u27s sculptural theories and practice with particular emphasis on Physical Energy which epitomises his plans for independently -conceived public monuments. The significance of Watts departure from contemporary sculptural norms in developing non-naturalistic form and surface has never been adequately accounted for. The book relates this idiosyncratic approach to new evidence and interpretation of the influence of archaeological and cultural factors, classical philology and relevant developments in European sculpture. The book is planned to coincide with the centenary of the siting of Physical Energy in Kensington Gardens. This colossal, uncommissioned bronze also exists in two other versions in two other locations and its ideological and aesthetic significance has led to strongly polarised critical responses. The problematic aspects of this work are examined in detail and related to wider issues impacting on 19th and 20th century public art, sculptural reproduction and the problematic status of monuments in a multi-cultural context.

No full textMother Watts, 1988, Watts Towers Art Center, exterior; 1727 East 107th Street (between Willowbrook Avenue and Alameda Street). A. Cox and four young people painted this mural without a pre-drawn design. Their inspiration was all around them, from the houses across the street to the tires discharged along the nearby train tracks to the helicopters that frequently buzz overhead. Each color was applied in layers, somewhat like animation cells are drawn. By Anthony Cox and local youth -- Dunitz, Street gallery, rev. 2nd ed., p. 234, #21
