Book Synopsis Dixie Bohemia by : John Shelton Reed
Download or read book Dixie Bohemia written by John Shelton Reed and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 2012-09-17 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the years following World War I, the New Orleans French Quarter attracted artists and writers with its low rents, faded charm, and colorful street life. By the 1920s Jackson Square had become the center of a vibrant if short-lived bohemia. A young William Faulkner and his roommate William Spratling, an artist who taught at Tulane University, resided among the "artful and crafty ones of the French Quarter." In Dixie Bohemia John Shelton Reed introduces Faulkner's circle of friends -- ranging from the distinguished Sherwood Anderson to a gender-bending Mardi Gras costume designer -- and brings to life the people and places of New Orleans in the Jazz Age. Reed begins with Faulkner and Spratling's self-published homage to their fellow bohemians, "Sherwood Anderson and Other Famous Creoles." The book contained 43 sketches of New Orleans artists, by Spratling, with captions and a short introduction by Faulkner. The title served as a rather obscure joke: Sherwood was not a Creole and neither were most of the people featured. But with Reed's commentary, these profiles serve as an entry into the world of artists and writers that dined on Decatur Street, attended masked balls, and blatantly ignored the Prohibition Act. These men and women also helped to establish New Orleans institutions such as the Double Dealer literary magazine, the Arts and Crafts Club, and Le Petit Theatre. But unlike most bohemias, the one in New Orleans existed as a whites-only affair. Though some of the bohemians were relatively progressive, and many employed African American material in their own work, few of them knew or cared about what was going on across town among the city's black intellectuals and artists. The positive developments from this French Quarter renaissance, however, attracted attention and visitors, inspiring the historic preservation and commercial revitalization that turned the area into a tourist destination. Predictably, this gentrification drove out many of the working artists and writers who had helped revive the area. As Reed points out, one resident who identified herself as an "artist" on the 1920 federal census gave her occupation in 1930 as "saleslady, real estate," reflecting the decline of an active artistic class. A charming and insightful glimpse into an era, Dixie Bohemia describes the writers, artists, poseurs, and hangers-on in the New Orleans art scene of the 1920s and illuminates how this dazzling world faded as quickly as it began.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “[An] epic account of life and loves among artists and writers in Paris from belle époque to world slump.” —William Feaver, The Spectator A legendary capital of the arts, Paris hosted some of the most legendary developments in world culture—particularly at the beginning of the twentieth century, with the flowering of fauvism, cubism, dadaism, and surrealism. In Bohemian Paris, Dan Franck leads us on a vivid and magical tour of the Paris of 1900–1930, a hotbed of artistic creation where we encounter Apollinaire, Modigliani, Cocteau, Matisse, Picasso, Hemingway, and Fitzgerald, working, loving, and struggling to stay afloat. Sixteen pages of black-and-white illustrations are featured. “Franck spins lavish historical, biographical, artistic, and even scandalous details into a narrative that will captivate both serious and casual readers . . . Marvelous and informative.” —Carol J. Binkowski, Library Journal

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second Ivy discovered the City, she fell in love. The two-hundred-person artist colony nestled in the heart of New Orleans gave her the opportunities she desperately sought as a graphic artist. Ivy's magical time in the Big Easy not only inspired her art but also touched her heart in unexpected ways. Follow her as she pulls up a seat at the Alpine Restaurant and tells her story. Ivy comes to the City as a na�ve would-be artist but quickly gains an insightful education in art and customer relations. She learns that tourists from Canada are the nicest but that no one will pay for portraits that look like their parents. Every customer has a story, and Ivy gets to hear them all. She sketches two fifth-grade sweethearts and tries to lure a meek grandmother out of her shell with a stunning portrait. As Ivy follows her passion, her love affair with Jackson Square continues as she becomes entwined in the acrimonious relationship between the City and city hall. Each attempt to restrict the vibrant culture of Jackson Square is met with open defiance and innovative rebellion-but it's a looming natural disaster that poses the ultimate threat.
