Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Important Collection of Paintings and Bronzes by Modern Masters of American and European Art: On View at the C. W. Kraushaar Art Galleries, 680 Fifth Avenue, New York, December 4th to 30th, 1922 In this exhibition Mr. Kraushaar has done an uncommon, fine thing. He has defied that efficiency devil, the classifier. He has brought into this collection the pictures of good paint ers without respect to the uniforms of the regi ments in which, for the sake of economy, these organizers of artists have placed them. He has done a very fine thing in art in neglecting the rule for its exception. Indeed, if this exhibition was without anything else in its favor, it would remain of tremendous importance as a piece of destructive criticism. The exceptions to the rule in governments are criminals, and perhaps justly punished as such. The exceptions to the rule in art are artists, and of an estimable value to the world. In art, ultimately, they are the only facts worth bothering about. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Synopsis Jerome Myers: the Ash Can Artist of the Lower East Side by : Robert L. Gambone
Download or read book Jerome Myers: the Ash Can Artist of the Lower East Side written by Robert L. Gambone and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2017-02-09 with total page 640 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Eight (Ash Can School), artists who joined ranks in 1908 to challenge the conservative dominance of the National Academy, does not count Jerome Myers among its number. Yet the pioneering work done by Myers places him in the forefront of contemporary realist artists. His focused concentration depicting the environment and inhabitants of New York Citys Lower East Side immigrant neighborhood catapults Jerome Myers into the forefront of artists who boldly sought out expressions of contemporary life. Myerss work allows us to understand these immigrant neighborhoods in a way that would not be possible today if his art did not exist. This book examines Myerss biography and art in detail, establishing not only his preeminant claim to a position at the forefront of the Eight, but also his role as artist-historian of a bygone neighborhood and the positive life of immigrants who lived there.

Book Synopsis Deaccessioning and Its Discontents by : Martin Gammon
Download or read book Deaccessioning and Its Discontents written by Martin Gammon and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2018-11-06 with total page 445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first history of the deaccession of objects from museum collections that defends deaccession as an essential component of museum practice. Museums often stir controversy when they deaccession works—formally remove objects from permanent collections—with some critics accusing them of betraying civic virtue and the public trust. In fact, Martin Gammon argues in Deaccessioning and Its Discontents, deaccession has been an essential component of the museum experiment for centuries. Gammon offers the first critical history of deaccessioning by museums from the seventeenth to the twenty-first century, and exposes the hyperbolic extremes of “deaccession denial”—the assumption that deaccession is always wrong—and “deaccession apology”—when museums justify deaccession by finding some fault in the object—as symptoms of the same misunderstanding of the role of deaccessions in proper museum practice. He chronicles a series of deaccession events in Britain and the United States that range from the disastrous to the beneficial, and proposes a typology of principles to guide future deaccessions. Gammon describes the liquidation of the British Royal Collections after Charles I's execution—when masterworks were used as barter to pay the king's unpaid bills—as establishing a precedent for future deaccessions. He recounts, among other episodes, U.S. Civil War veterans who tried to reclaim their severed limbs from museum displays; the 1972 “Hoving affair,” when the Metropolitan Museum of Art sold a number of works to pay for a Velázquez portrait; and Brandeis University's decision (later reversed) to close its Rose Art Museum and sell its entire collection of contemporary art. An appendix provides the first extensive listing of notable deaccessions since the seventeenth century. Gammon ultimately argues that vibrant museums must evolve, embracing change, loss, and reinvention.
