Summaries and Reviews
Amazon.com description: Product Description:
Art historian, collector, museum director, and broadcaster Kenneth Clark (1903â1983) was one of the leading cultural figures of the mid-20th century. This new book considers all aspects of his life and work, including his landmark TV series, Civilization. Clark was enormously important in terms of his support of, and influence upon, the art of his time. As director of Britainâs National Gallery he oversaw the relocation of its collecÂtion during WWII; as chair of the War Artists Advisory Committee he persuaded the government not to draft artistsâsuch as Henry Moore; in 1954 he co-founded the broadcasting company that was to become ITV, and then chaired the British Arts Council from 1955 to 1960. A pasÂsionate advocate of making art accessible to all, in 1969 Clark wrote and presented Civilization for the BBC, distillÂing the history of Western philosophy, culture, and art into 13 groundbreaking episodesâthe first-ever blockbuster documentary series viewed around the world.
