Plot
In "Effie Gray" Dakota Fanning plays the title character, Euphemia "Effie" Gray, wife of the 19th century's greatest art historian and critic, John Ruskin (Greg Wise). Ruskin's sexual dysfunction and his wife's sexual innocence and inexperience in the repressed atmosphere of Victorian England are further complicated by Effie's affair with pre-Raphaelite painter Sir John Everett Millais (Tom Sturridge) after Effie poses for the artist and falls in love with him. Author and art historian Lady Elizabeth Eastlake (Emma Thompson, who wrote the screenplay), Effie's friend and champion, encourages her to seek an annulment from her husband. In order to prove non-consummation of the marriage, Effie is forced to undergo a physical examination that confirms her virginity after five years of marriage to Ruskin. During the trial, which creates a scandal and more discussion than the ongoing Crimean War, a doctor (Robbie Coltrane) testifies that the plaintiff is a virgin. The physical examination and embarrassing courtroom testimony about her intimate life induces a psychosomatic paralysis that lasts 10 days. The judge rules in Effie's favor, citing her husband's "incurable impotency." While her internationally renowned husband continues his busy professional and social life, Effie, a spirited, outgoing woman, is ousted from society and forbidden to attend any event where Queen Victoria is present. Her ostracism is alleviated by her marriage to Millais, with whom she will eventually have eight children.

Peggy Macnamara John Ruskin Bird Composition Watercolors

- Duration: 2:44
- Updated: 15 Nov 2013
Peggy Macnamara ,Artist-in-Residence at the Field Museum , incorporates John Ruskin 9 laws of Compositions into a wonderful Bird Composition Series. Published in 1857, In the third chapter, Letter III, On Colour and Composition, Ruskin introduces his nine laws of composition. Macnamara refers to these laws as a sort of checklist for what is right in a composition. Still, when painting flocks of birds, she adjusts the compositions to suit her sensibilities. But nothing works as well as when she remains true to the flock's particular choreography. As she finishes each piece Macnamara discovers that each arrangement adheres to one or more of Ruskin's Laws of composition. She knows they flock in certain ways to save energy and insure the success of the species, not to please the viewer. The birds just seem to get it right! www.peggymacnamara.com

Geopoetics and John Ruskin: a conversation
Norman Bissell (Director, Scottish Centre for Geopoetics) and Howard Hull (Director, Brantwood and the Ruskin Foundation) in conversation, discussing connections between John Ruskin's thought and Geopoetics. Introduced by Bridie Ashrowan.
Held at the 'Going Outward' Geopoetics Weekend at Brantwood (Former Home of John Ruskin), Coniston, Cumbria 26 & 27 March 2011.
'Going Outward' was a two day event about making real connections with the world as the key to understanding and practising geopoetics. The outstanding setting of John Ruskin’s former house overlooking Coniston Water in the Lake District enabled us to explore his response to landscape and his relationship to geopoetics.

Los ojos de Ruskin (2013)
John Ruskin llegó a entender la restauración de edificios como una destrucción, viendo a las ruinas como un producto de la historia y como única función el apreciar el paso del tiempo en estos monumentos. Los Ojos de Ruskin es una mirada contemplativa a monumentos de la Región Metropolitana de Chile, en donde no ha sido alterada la evolución de los edificios, sólo está presente el paso del tiempo y la admiración hacia éste.

John Ruskin (8 February 1819 – 20 January 1900) was the leading English art critic of the Victorian era, also an art patron, draughtsman, watercolourist, a prominent social thinker and philanthropist. He wrote on subjects ranging from geology to architecture, myth to ornithology, literature to education, and botany to political economy. His writing styles and literary forms were equally varied. Ruskin penned essays and treatises, poetry and lectures, travel guides and manuals, letters and even a fairy tale. The elaborate style that characterised his earliest writing on art was later superseded by a preference for plainer language designed to communicate his ideas more effectively. In all of his writing, he emphasised the connections between nature, art and society. He also made detailed sketches and paintings of rocks, plants, birds, landscapes, and architectural structures and ornamentation.
He was hugely influential in the latter half of the 19th century up to the First World War. After a period of relative decline, his reputation has steadily improved since the 1960s with the publication of numerous academic studies of his work. Today, his ideas and concerns are widely recognised as having anticipated interest in environmentalism, sustainability and craft.
