- **Event Description**: In this lecture Art historian Catherine Wallace, discusses the complex personality and various art works of  Hannah Gluckstein known as Gluck 1895–1978. Gluck was born in to a wealthy family but rejected very early on in her youth the expectations her family had of a young heiress. She rebelled by going to Art School and then discovered Lamorna in Cornwall in 1918 meeting artists such as Alfred Munnings and Laura Knight  who encouraged her to paint. She would return to live and work there for many years. 

As well as insisting that she would just be known as Gluck – she deliberately dressed like a man and had numerous love affairs with both married and single women throughout her life. She became an artist of the Jazz Age and her work ranged from backstage scenes as well as stars of the theatre such as Ernest Thesiger, to crowd scenes at the races, boxing matches or outside courts in murder trials. She became an artist of great technical skill and precision best shown for her flower paintings enhanced by her lover Constance Spry’s floral creations.  Gluck was also a  highly respected portrait painter producing crisply delineated portrayals from Society hostesses to High Court judges.

Although a conventional painter, her invention of a frame, known as the Gluck frame was a pioneering idea which moved art into the interior design business. She spent a good deal of her time in later life taking on the paint companies trying to get them to standardize artists colours.
