Saint Nazaire Special Ops ' 2013 by Katherine Russell Limited edition Archival pigment print - numbered and signed on front by the artist. edition of 15 only 40 w x 30 h cm About the St Nazaire Raid The St Nazaire Raid or Operation Chariot was a British amphibious attack on the heavily defended Normandie dry dock at St Nazaire in German-occupied France during the Second World War. The operation was undertaken by the Royal Navy and British Commandos under the auspices of Combined Operations Headquarters on 28 March 1942. St Nazaire was targeted because the loss of its dry dock would force any large German warship in need of repairs, such as Tirpitz, sister ship of Bismarck, to return to home waters by running the gauntlet of the Home Fleet of the Royal Navy and other British forces, via the English Channel or the GIUK gap. The obsolete destroyer HMS Campbeltown, accompanied by 18 smaller craft, crossed the English Channel to the Atlantic coast of France and was rammed into the Normandie dock gates. The ship had been packed with delayed-action explosives, well-hidden within a steel and concrete case, that detonated later that day, putting the dock out of service for the remainder of the war and up to five years afterwards. A force of commandos landed to destroy machinery and other structures. German gunfire sank, set ablaze or immobilised virtually all the small craft intended to transport the commandos back to England. The commandos fought their way through the town to escape overland but many surrendered when they ran out of ammunition or were surrounded by the Wehrmacht defending Saint-Nazaire. Of the 611 men who undertook the raid, 228 returned to Britain, 169 were killed and 215 became prisoners of war. German casualties included over 360 dead, some of whom were killed after the raid when Campbeltown exploded. To recognise their bravery, 89 members of the raiding party were awarded decorations, including five Victoria Crosses. After the war, St Nazaire was one of 38 battle honours awarded to the Commandos. The operation has been called The Greatest Raid of All within British military circles. Katherine Russel's grandfather, Stuart 'Chanty' Chant Sempill - detonated the explosives. About the artist : Katherine Russell is a London based Painter. Her current body of work seeks to deconstruct our daily encounter with media images. From war zones to deserts, from solitary figures to candle-lit night markets, her choice of source material is indiscriminate of specific content, yet resonant with the unfamiliar and unsettling nature of our media-driven age.

Saint Nazaire Special Ops ' 2013 di Katherine Russell Edizione limitata stampa a pigmenti d'archivio - numerata e firmata sul davanti dall'artista. edizione di 15 solo 40 l x 30 h cm Il Raid di St Nazaire o Operazione Chariot fu un attacco anfibio britannico sul bacino di carenaggio Normandie pesantemente difeso a St Nazaire nella Francia occupata dai tedeschi durante la seconda guerra mondiale. L'operazione fu intrapresa dalla Royal Navy e dai Commandos britannici sotto gli auspici del Combined Operations Headquarters il 28 marzo 1942. St Nazaire fu presa di mira perché la perdita del suo bacino di carenaggio avrebbe costretto qualsiasi grande nave da guerra tedesca bisognosa di riparazioni, come la Tirpitz, nave sorella della Bismarck, a tornare in acque nazionali, passando per la Home Fleet della Royal Navy e altre forze britanniche, attraverso il Canale della Manica o lo spazio GIUK. L'obsoleto cacciatorpediniere HMS Campbeltown, accompagnato da 18 imbarcazioni più piccole, attraversò la Manica fino alla costa atlantica della Francia e fu speronato contro le porte del porto di Normandie. La nave era stata imbottita di esplosivi ad azione ritardata, ben nascosti in una cassa di acciaio e cemento, che detonarono più tardi quel giorno, mettendo il bacino fuori servizio per il resto della guerra e fino a cinque anni dopo. Una forza di commandos sbarcò per distruggere i macchinari e altre strutture. Gli spari tedeschi affondarono, incendiarono o immobilizzarono praticamente tutte le piccole imbarcazioni destinate a trasportare i commando in Inghilterra. I commando combatterono attraverso la città per fuggire via terra, ma molti si arresero quando finirono le munizioni o furono circondati dalla Wehrmacht che difendeva Saint-Nazaire. Dei 611 uomini che intrapresero il raid, 228 tornarono in Gran Bretagna, 169 furono uccisi e 215 divennero prigionieri di guerra. Le perdite tedesche includevano oltre 360 morti, alcuni dei quali furono uccisi dopo il raid quando Campbeltown esplose. Per riconoscere il loro coraggio, 89 membri del gruppo di incursori furono premiati con decorazioni, incluse cinque Victoria Cross. Dopo la guerra, St Nazaire fu una delle 38 onorificenze di battaglia assegnate ai Commandos. L'operazione è stata chiamata il più grande raid di tutti nei circoli militari britannici. Il nonno di Katherine Russel, Stuart 'Chanty' Chant Sempill - fece esplodere gli esplosivi. L'artista: Katherine Russel è una pittrice di Londra. Il suo attuale corpo di lavoro cerca di decostruire il nostro incontro quotidiano con le immagini dei media. Dalle zone di guerra ai deserti, dalle figure solitarie ai mercati notturni a lume di candela, la sua scelta del materiale di partenza è indiscriminata dal contenuto specifico, ma risuona con la natura sconosciuta e inquietante della nostra epoca guidata dai media.
