Download or read book Grandma Moses written by and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A long-overdue reexamination of beloved American artist Grandma Moses, restoring her rightful place within the canon of mid-century American Art. One of the best-known artists of her time, and a true American legend, Anna Mary Robertson "Grandma" Moses (1860 1961) was often marginalized as a latter-day "folk" painter or a phenomenon of popular media. Accompanying a traveling exhibition, this new book looks closely at the paintings themselves and the artist's compelling biography to reassert her role in the development of a culture of modernist art at mid-century. Presenting fresh research, several scholars examine Moses s name, public persona, painted world, and wildly popular place in American pop culture; address the myth of the self-taught artist; and contextualize her work alongside such contemporaries as Horace Pippin, Elie Nadelman, Yasuo Kuniyoshi, and Morris Hirshfield.

Book excerpt: Have you ever wondered how someone can be “in a pickle” when pickles are so small, or why mothers say you’re “on thin ice” even when you’re indoors? Are you perplexed that your father “brings home the bacon” but is a strict vegetarian? Will Moses has the answers, and sheds light not only on these idioms but dozens more with Raining Cats and Dogs.

Download or read book Gatecrashers written by Katherine Jentleson and published by University of California Press. This book was released on 2020-04-07 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After World War I, artists without formal training “crashed the gates” of major museums in the United States, diversifying the art world across lines of race, ethnicity, class, ability, and gender. At the center of this fundamental reevaluation of who could be an artist in America were John Kane, Horace Pippin, and Anna Mary Robertson “Grandma” Moses. The stories of these three artists not only intertwine with the major critical debates of their period but also prefigure the call for inclusion in representations of American art today. In Gatecrashers, Katherine Jentleson offers a valuable corrective to the history of twentieth-century art by expanding narratives of interwar American modernism and providing an origin story for contemporary fascination with self-taught artists.

Book excerpt: "Anna Mary Robertson Moses, after sixty years of working as an upstate New York farm wife, became celebrated in the international art world as Grandma Moses." "With a palette of pure colors and a true vision, she presented recollections of her girlhood in meticulously painted observations of a long-since-vanished rural America. Her scenes of farm life and holiday revels and her seasonal landscapes abound in charm untouched by sentimentality." "In this sumptuously produced volume, twenty-five of Grandma Moses' finest works are shown in large scale. A number of details enrich the book, offering an opportunity to view her brushwork as though looking closely at the original. Photographs of the artist and her family add yet another dimension." "Individual commentaries address each work, explaining what Moses was trying to do and her methods. Vivid quotations in the artist's own words add another facet to this highly enjoyable book." --BOOK JACKET.

Download or read book Come Walk with Me written by Dorris Curtis and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The paintings of Dorris Curtis are an accomplishment on several levels, a tribute to her industry, talent, and commitment to what must be recognized as at bottom a preservationist impulse, old as Herodotus. Their claim upon the attention of viewers, as with any paintings or sculptures, is initially a matter of spontaneous attraction varying in its motive with every viewer. Subsequent reflection, however, would surely note a complex mix of aesthetic and nostalgic elements in their appeal. In her "Memories" especially, but also in the paintings she grouped under other headings, Curtis re-creates in durable form and color the rural Oklahoma world she knew as a child and lost all too soon. That early loss - of cherished home and even more cherished mother - would in itself be more than sufficient as a sustaining motivation. But there was also, in the spectacular career of Anna Mary Robertson Moses - better know first as Mother Moses and then even more famous as Grandma Moses - a wholly conscious model and inspiration. On a wintry March day in 1973, according to her own account, Curtis was at home in Conway, Arkansas. The schools were closed , and the teacher, a woman of sixty-five facing retirement, found herself thinking of the upstate New York farm lady who became a famous painter at eighty: "'Grandma Moses started painting without formal training when she was seventy,' I reasoned, 'creating memory pictures of her childhood. Why can't I do the same?'"

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An in-depth look at one of the richest collections of American art, assembled by Electra Havemeyer Webb, renowned collector and founder of Shelburne Museum. Electra Havemeyer Webb assembled Shelburne Museum’s trove of American paintings in the late 1950s, creating a renowned and rich survey of American portraits, landscapes, marine paintings, sporting art, still lifes, and genre scenes from the eighteenth to the early twentieth centuries. During an era that preferred European modernism and abstraction, Webb’s visionary endeavor presented a new story of the United States: an attractive and industrious nation with its own valuable artistic traditions. This handsome book features the best of Shelburne’s American paintings, including works by colonial painters John Wollaston and John Singleton Copley, portraits by William Matthew Prior and Ammi Phillips, Hudson River School landcapes by Thomas Cole, Albert Bierstadt, and John Frederick Kensett, and scenes of American life by Eastman Johnson, Winslow Homer, Andrew Wyeth, and many more. The collection is also notable for its great depth in the works by Fitz Henry Lane, Martin Johnson Heade, Arthur Fitzwilliam Tait, Carl Rungius, Grandma Moses, and Ogden Pleissner.
