Detailed Description
Stuckism is an international art movement founded in 1999 by Billy Childish and Charles Thomson to promote figurative painting as opposed to conceptual art. By May 2004, there were 59 stuckist groups in 24 countries. The name “Stuckism” was coined by Childish in response to an art critic who dismissed one of his paintings as “stuck”. In fact, Childish has always been a prolific painter and poet, and has been active in the British music scene since the late 1970s, when he founded The Medway Poets with fellow poet and artist Sexton Ming. The stuckists declared themselves to be the first anti-conceptual art group (although they were not the first group to react against conceptual art). They are frequently described as the most vocal and organised group in the contemporary art world. Famous stuckist artists include Tracey Emin, who was actually associated with the group for a short time before she became famous in her own right. Other notable stuckists include Charles Thomson, Billy Childish, Richard Dadd, and Philip Absolon. One of the most famous paintings by a stuckist artist is Tracey Emin’s “My Bed”, which was shortlisted for the Turner Prize in 1999. The painting caused a great deal of controversy at the time, with some people arguing that it was not actually art.
