The artist, Walter Sickert, called Wyndham Lewis "The greatest portraitist of this or any other time". Lewis [1882-1957] studied at the Slade and, as well as producing some iconic portraits, wrote for publications such as 'The Tyro' and 'Blast'. He was a leading member of the movement known as Vorticism. Look especially for his portrait of Edith Sitwell [1943 - Tate] and the beautiful portrait of his wife, Froanna [1937 - Glasgow City Council].
Walter Sickert and his audacious paintings will be in the spotlight in Paris for an unprecedented exhibition at the Petit Palais.

¿Puede ser considerada la obra de un artista como prueba de cargo en un asesinato? Parece ser que en determinadas circunstancias sí. Después de semejante introducción, el cuadro que encabeza este artículo, El zapato rosa de Walter Sickert, nos parecerá el escenario de un crimen reciente en el que se está esperando la llegada de la policía. En otras circunstancias hubieramos pensado que se trataba de una mujer exhausta después de una noche de placer y/o de trabajo. Este es Walter Sickert en 1884, cuatro años antes de que comenzaran los asesinatos de Jack el Destripador. No tiene pinta de asesino en serie, pero como en toda buena película negra, las apariencias engañan. Eso es, al menos, lo que asegura la novelista Patricia Cornwell en Retrato de un Asesino. Jack el Destripador - Caso Cerrado publicada en 2002. ¿Cuáles son las pruebas contra Sickert? Según Cornwell este artista nacido en Munich en 1860 en una familia bastante rígida es sospechoso por: una malformación en su pene que le impedía consumar el acto sexual, gustarle el travestismo, ser guapo y atractivo, casarse varias veces, ser culo de mal asiento, sentir atracción por los barrios de mala fama y por último, pero es la prueba concluyente, por su obra artística. Hay que reconocer que el gusto de Sickert por el desnudo oscuro coincide en el tiempo con la comisión de los crímenes. Pero, el hecho desancadenante de estas obras fue el descubrimiento por parte del artista de los desnudos de Degas. A Sickert le gusta el lado escabroso, morboso y lo explora. Su obra, además, fue muy bien acogida en París donde se le consideró un innovador que rompía el intolerable cliché de la pintura clara y se le admiró por su inmoralismo y su visión anti-burguesa. Cornwell tiene que reconocer que no tiene ninguna prueba definitiva que permita asegurar que Sickert era Jack el Destripador. Pero cuidado con lo que se pinta, porque dentro de cien años ¿de qué se le acusará a Lucian Freud o Fancis Bacon?

Crime novelist Patricia Cornwell has claimed Sickert was the killer – but is it fair to posthumously punish an artist for capturing sex and sleaze in the city, asks Jonathan Jones
