	Frank Auerbach
		Frank Helmut Auerbach (born April 29, 1931) is a painter.
		Auerbach was born in Berlin, but his parents sent him to England in 1939 to escape the Nazis (the family was Jewish).
		Auerbach is a figurative painter, usually taking personal friends as his subject, with three people being used time and again: his wife, Julia; Juliet Yardley Mills (usually referred to as J. in titles), a professional model; and Stella West (usually referred to as E. W.), a personal friend.

	The Guardian Profile: Frank Auerbach \| Arts \| EducationGuardian.co.uk
		Auerbach's own attitude to the new wave of video and installation artists is unbiased: "I can absolutely see how people became impatient with painting, all those gold frames in galleries," though he regards even the humble television as "an abominable invention".
		Frank Helmut Auerbach was born in Berlin on April 29 1931, just as Adolph Hitler's grip on the German Reichstag tightened and Nazi brownshirts began patrolling the city's streets.
		Auerbach now has only the haziest recollection of his early childhood: "You would be surprised how little memory one has if there is nothing to connect one with the life that one had," he says.

	Frank Auerbach: Paintings and Drawings 1954-2001 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		The retrospective exhibition Frank Auerbach Paintings and Drawings 1954—2001 at the Royal Academy of the Arts is the most exhilarating and brilliant exhibition I have seen for years.
		Auerbach’s work has a constantly self-revising dynamic which never allows the subject to disengage from the distinctive properties of the painter’s medium, nor does it allow the relation between medium and subject to be taken for granted.
		Auerbach’s remarkable paintings; his decisive compositional devices, and his ability to pierce the object with a formidable investigative talent, are constantly informed by his drawing.

	Acquavella: Frank Auerbach's Biography
		Frank Auerbach was born in Berlin in 1931.
		Auerbach attended St. Martin’s School of Art from 1948 to 1952 and the Royal College of Art from 1952 to 1955.
		Auerbach’s work is primarily figurative lying in a realm somewhere between pure portraiture and narrative, but with a very expressive use of the texture of paint itself.

	BBC - Radio 3 - Frank Auerbach Interview
		I have a Frank Auerbach on the walls of my office - not that I own it you understand, but I have it on loan and I've got more and more involved in the thick paint, the gashes of colour, the bold gestures of the painting.
		It's very recognisable, as indeed Auerbach's pictures are - they're only in oil or charcoal, occasionally acrylic now, only portraits of a very limited number of sitters, or of landscapes around Camden Town in north London.
		Frank Auerbach belongs to no school though he has been linked to his friend Leon Kossoff, to Lucien Freud, to Francis Bacon.

	Artblog.net - Frank Auerbach documentary
		Last night I watched the Frank Auerbach documentary produced by son Jake Auerbach, and I found it hauntingly candid and hugely inspiring.
		Auerbach paints every day of the year (but one) for ten to twelve hours at a stretch, cleaving to sky-high standards that demand that he lay paint down and scrape it off in what sound like half-hour cycles of creation and destruction, seeking the right image.
		Auerbach has selected a handful of people to sit for him, based almost entirely on their willingness and reliablility.

		Frank Auerbach's paintings are known for their expressive quality and graphic directness.
		Auerbach's dedication to painting is evidently shown through the text and copious illustrations, including 80 in full color.

		Frank Auerbach's paintings and drawings have never been so well publicised or so fashionable.
		Auerbach's surprise that at his early shows people drew attention to the paint is reported, but Hughes is less informative about how the paintings do actually reward sustained scrutiny.
		Standing in front of an Auerbach, one is most aware, at first sight, of the paint texture, the colour, the way the surface is worked.

	Review: Frank Auerbach: Paintings and Drawings 1954-2001 \| Arts critics \| Guardian Unlimited Arts
		Auerbach's sitters come back, week after week, year after year at the appointed time, like patients to their analyst.
		Auerbach was born in Berlin and sent to England in 1939, never to see his parents again.
		Auerbach later got corralled into the ghastly "School of London", a journalistic catch-all that saw him and his contemporaries - Lucian Freud, Leon Kossoff, Michael Andrews, RB Kitaj and others - as standard-bearers for humanism and hard-won values.

	Head of JYM by Frank Auerbach (b.1931)
		In the early 1980s Auerbach painted a major series of portraits of JYM in which the simplicity of the wooden chair upon which she sits and the frontal pose she adopts belies the immense power and sophistication of the painting.
		In Head of JYM the model's presence is strongly physical: Auerbach conveys the weight of the head, the strength of the neck, the animation of a person into whose space we have intruded.
		In this sense Auerbach's portraits of JYM recall Giacometti intimacy and Bacon immediacy, in which the subject is not simply the figure, alone, but rather the figure in space.

		Frank was born in Germany, 1931 but moved to England shortly after to escape the nazi rule.
		In spite, or because of, this narrow range, his work has an intensity that is the result of numerous reworkings and the application of successive layers of charcoal and impasto, each a fresh attempt at perception.
		Auerbach manages to capture so much of his subjects in all their multitude while leaving the physical attributes simple and undetermined.

	Essay: Frank Auerbach - Coursework.Info
		Frank Auerbach is an artist whose work is almost completely diminished when it's reproduced in books or magazines (or websites for that matter).
		The images are as far removed from Auerbach's actual work as a photograph of someone is from the real person.
		Auerbach paints small to medium sized paintings of rather ordinary subjects, portraits of people, views of his studio and landscapes of Camden Town and Primrose Hill, the areas near his home.

	Head of J.Y.M. by Frank Auerbach b.1931
		Each time Auerbach returns to his subject he is painting with a greater knowledge and intensity and his mesh-like brushstrokes retain a vitality and freshness betrayed in the glistening viscosity of the oil paint used.
		These dark diagonals, which are typical of Auerbach’s work of the early 1970s, define her face, pinning her down within the energetic paintwork with which this painting was created.
		Catherine Lampert notes the closeness of the relationship between Auerbach and J.Y.M. as they called one another, Jimmie and Frankie: ‘Often she [J.Y.M.] would sense that Auerbach was depressed, his posture more bent over as he began.

	THE SCHOOL OF LONDON index
		Essentially a subject of R.R. Kitaj's "School of London," its nucleus comprised a group of friends and contemporaries: Francis Bacon, Frank Auebach, Lucian Freud, Michael Andrews.
		The latter's painting, The Colony Room I, 1962 sets at least two of them in their milieu (all 23' x 12' of it): Freud stands off-center facing out, and Bacon sits to his left with Muriel Belcher on her stool dividing them.
		"Each of these painters 'instilled a personal style in their works dissecting reality and the morphological attitude of models, expressionist and violent for Auerbach, haloed with dream and mystery for Andrews, coloured and graphic for Kitaj while Kossof seems much attracted by thick materials.
