Book Synopsis The Denver Artists Guild by : Stan Cuba
Download or read book The Denver Artists Guild written by Stan Cuba and published by University Press of Colorado. This book was released on 2015-05-06 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1928, the newly organized Denver Artists Guild held its inaugural exhibition in downtown Denver. Little did the participants realize that their initial effort would survive the Great Depression and World War II—and then outlive all of the group’s fifty-two charter members. The guild’s founders worked in many media and pursued a variety of styles. In addition to the oils and watercolors one would expect were masterful pastels by Elsie Haddon Haynes, photographs by Laura Gilpin, sculpture by Gladys Caldwell Fisher and Arnold Rönnebeck, ceramics by Anne Van Briggle Ritter and Paul St. Gaudens, and collages by Pansy Stockton. Styles included realism, impressionism, regionalism, surrealism, and abstraction. Murals by Allen True, Vance Kirkland, John E. Thompson, Louise Ronnebeck, and others graced public and private buildings—secular and religious—in Colorado and throughout the United States. The guild’s artists didn’t just contribute to the fine and decorative arts of Colorado; they enhanced the national reputation of the state. Then, in 1948, the Denver Artists Guild became the stage for a great public debate pitting traditional against modern. The twenty-year-old guild split apart as modernists bolted to form their own group, the Fifteen Colorado Artists. It was a seminal moment: some of guild’s artists became great modernists, while others remained great traditionalists. Enhanced by period photographs and reproductions of the founding members’ works, The Denver Artists Guild chronicles a vibrant yet overlooked chapter of Colorado’s cultural history. The book includes a walking tour of guild members’ paintings and sculptures viewable in Denver and elsewhere in Colorado, by Leah Naess and author Stan Cuba.

Book Synopsis Karl Bodmer, 1809-1893 by : Nordamerika Native Museum
Download or read book Karl Bodmer, 1809-1893 written by Nordamerika Native Museum and published by Scheidegger and Spiess. This book was released on 2009 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In May of 1832, Swiss artist Karl Bodmer (1809-93) set out with Maximilian Prince of Wied, a German aristocrat and scientist, on a 28-month journey along the Ohio and Missouri rivers. For Bodmer, the expedition resulted in more than 400 watercolors and sketches of Native American people, landscapes, animals, and plants. Engravings of many of the images were subsequently used to illustrate Travels in the Interior of North America, Prince Maximilian's well-known historical account. Karl Bodmer is an homage to the great painter who captured for the rest of the world so many important natural details of early America. Presented here are all 81 engravings used to illustrate Maximilian's book, and 9 of Bodmer's original watercolors and sketches, as well as photographs of artifacts collected during the legendary passage. Bodmer's detailed work is among the most important documents of Native American culture from that region. Almost all of these images are held today in public collections in the United States, including large collections at the Newberry Library in Chicago, the Baltimore Museum of Art and the Joslyn Art Museum in Omaha. Karl Bodmer is a richly illustrated volume that brings to life a monumental event in both art history and the history of early America.

Book Synopsis For the Sake of Art by : Cynthia Mines
Download or read book For the Sake of Art written by Cynthia Mines and published by . This book was released on 2015-12-01 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the early decades of the 20th century, the small Kansas community of McPherson experienced such a renaissance of art and culture that the prestigious International Studio magazine proclaimed that per-capita art ownership there was higher than anywhere in the world. The man behind the movement was Carl Smalley, the son of a seed store owner whose passion for original art was fueled by a visit to the 1904 World's Fair in St. Louis. At the heart of the art oasis on the prairie was a friendship between Smalley and artist Birger Sandzen. Their collegial enthusiasm was the backbone of annual exhibitions that attracted more than half the population to see works by artists such as Rembrandt, Whistler, Manet, Joseph Pennell, Gustave Baumann, Robert Henri, George Bellows, Thomas Hart Benton and members of the Prairie Print Makers. School children and graduating classes collected money to buy original art, and the seeds sowed during that era can still be seen on the walls of the McPherson public schools as well as museums, colleges, office buildings, libraries and private collections.
Book Synopsis Albert Henry Krehbiel by : Donald Thomas Ryan, Jr

Book excerpt: "It seems to me that a good deal has been crowded into my life and I almost feel that if I had to 'lay off' I could easily live on the fond recollections of the past ...... I'm almost willing to wager, at this early day, that sometime in the years hence I'll have collected a batch of such sweet and wholesome recollections that can be rated second to none. But best of all, there will be something besides a batch of recollections. For I believe that work with a capital W is the great source of contentment and pleasure, and since consistent work is bound, in my line, to produce something lasting, I hope someday to give pleasure to others in helping them to fish up some pleasant recollection that had most slipped away in the past." Albert H. Krehbiel, Paris, France, 1904
