Download or read book EAKINS & PHOTOGRAPH PB written by Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts and published by Smithsonian Books (DC). This book was released on 1994-09-17 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the foremost American painters of the 19th century, Eakins (1844-1916) was also a pioneer photographer, his most innovative aspect being his emphasis on the nude, then rarely encountered in the US. This catalogue of the Eakins photographs in the Pennsylvania Academy's Charles Bregler collection includes about three-fourths of Eakins' photographic output. It describes the entire collection of 648 images, reproducing 173 bandw photographs, 52 duotones, and a portfolio section of 16 tritones. The accompanying essays suggest new ways of looking at the photographs in terms not only of Eakins' own art but also of the history of the medium. 10.25x9.75" Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

Book excerpt: Thomas Eakins (1844-1916) is best known as a realist painter and as an artist with a deep interest in science. Although this legacy has been shaped primarily by his contributions as a painter, Eakins was also an avid amateur photographer. The full scope of his photographic work was little known until 1985, when a cache of his negatives and prints were acquired by the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts. Instead of documenting modern life or to emulating the scientific photography of the late nineteenth century, Eakins's photography indicates a preoccupation with romanticized subject matter, including blurred landscapes and idealized nudes. This contradiction, that a scientific medium would allow a realist artist a place to be less concerned with Realism, is the concern of this research. Eakins, was clearly influenced by the emerging American Pictorialist movement of the late nineteenth century, however, he was using this aesthetic to somewhat different ends. Looking at Eakins's photographs against examples of pictorialist photographers, allows an examination of these differences. Eakins relied on the photographic medium's inherent reference to optical truth, a reliance which then allowed him to explore subject matter and aesthetic themes absent from his painting. As has been suggested of his use of Realism in painting, Eakins's photography positioned viewers to scrutinize their expectations of visual truth. Eakins's photographic romanticism, usually denied an important place in his oeuvre, can, in light of this research, be seen to signify a prescient engagement with modernisms conflicted relationship to objective and subjective truths.

Download or read book KEEPING WATCH PB written by Michael O'Malley and published by Smithsonian Books (DC). This book was released on 1996-04-17 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Focusing on the period from 1820 to 1920, Keeping Watch details the far-reaching changes in American society brought about by the transition from natural to mechanical sources of time -- from farmers' almanacs and religious formulations of time to regional time zones, synchronized watches, and factory punch clocks. Michael O'Malley show how the pressures of industrialization, the emergence of the telegraph, and the spread of railroads led to a demand for uniform, consistent schedules. Chronicling particular communities' resistance to standard time and, later, daylight saving time, Keeping Watch also examines the cut-and-paste manipulation of "real time" in motion pictures. The cumulative impact of these technological changes, O'Malley argues, was momentous, creating a harsher ethic of punctuality and an unprecedented degree of labor regimentation. Book jacket.
Download or read book Walker Evans: the Interview written by and published by . This book was released on 2019-05-21 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1971, Art in America published an interview with Walker Evans conducted by Leslie George Katz, writer and publisher of the Eakins Press. The interview is charming and illuminating in its clarity and candor. Nearing the end of his life, Evans speaks freely about his influences and how he got started as a photographer ("I was damn well going to be an artist and I wasn't going to be a businessman," he remembers), and reflects back on his work and his thinking. The interview has become legendary, consulted by curators, scholars and students for half a century and considered a definitive source for insights into the process, philosophy and personality of one of America's greatest photographers. In 1995, the Eakins Press Foundation republished Evans' interview in a deluxe clothbound edition titled Walker Evans Incognito. More than 20 years later, this new edition brings the Evans interview back into print in an elegant and affordable volume for a new generation. Walker Evans scholar Anne Bertrand introduces the interview and its publication history, and contributes notes throughout the text that provide important contextual information. Walker Evans: The Interview offers an opportunity to rediscover the man behind the famous images, in his own words. Born in St. Louis, Missouri, Walker Evans (1903-75) took up photography in 1928. His book collaboration with James Agee, Let Us Now Praise Famous Men (1941), which portrayed the lives of three white tenant families in southern Alabama during the Depression, has become one of that era's most defining documents. Evans joined the staff of Time magazine in 1945, and shortly after moved to Fortune magazine, where he stayed until 1965. That year, he became a professor of photography at the Yale University School of Art. Evans died at his home in Old Lyme, Connecticut, in 1975. Leslie George Katz (1918-97) was the founder and publisher of the Eakins Press Foundation. Until his death in 1997, he wrote extensively about American art and culture, and through his sustained efforts to celebrate his heroes--Thomas Eakins, Walt Whitman, and Walker Evans--found a way to define a new sort of democratic, patriotic intellectualism.
