Content mainly consists of gallery installation views, individual objects images, exhibition openings, and visitors to the exhibition. - Page 3 - Exhibitions Photographs Collection Scope and Contents The Exhibitions Photographs Collection contains photographs of exhibitions at the Baltimore Museum of Art from 1923 to 2008. As not all BMA exhibitions were originally photographed, not all exhibitions are included in this collection, and the volume of materials ranges widely between exhibitions. The collection primarily includes exhibitions from the Museum’s original temporary home at 101 W. Monument Street and the BMA Downtown gallery as well as the permanent Wyman Park location. In some cases, photographs of exhibitions at other institutions are included, such as traveling exhibitions that also visited the BMA. Some named exhibitions that took place in the Museum shop, the Member’s Room or the Sales and Rental Gallery are included alongside regularly held exhibitions. At the end of the Exhibitions series are partially and unidentified images of BMA exhibitions. Content mainly consists of gallery installation views, individual objects images, exhibition openings, and visitors to the exhibition. In some cases, photographs of the artist, BMA staff or special guests are also included. Maryland and Regional Artists exhibitions photographs often feature the exhibition jurors as well. Images from the Museum Shop catalog, the Sales and Rental Gallery, and 1989 Antiques catalog are also included in this collection. The Museum Shop catalog includes images of people and merchandise featured in the publication. The Sales and Rental Gallery images highlight individual artworks and exhibitions composed by the Women’s Committee. The artworks displayed in the Sales and Rental Gallery were available to the public for purchase or loan. The 1989 Antiques catalog images include art from the BMA collection featured in different articles within the publication. Formats include black and white and color photographic prints, black and white and color negatives (acetate and polyester), color slides, and color transparencies. For some more recent exhibitions, the Collection includes digital images, and their associated storage formats. Arrangement Folders are arranged chronologically by year, and alphabetically by exhibition title within each year. Partially identified and unidentified exhibition images can be found at the end of the collection, followed by Sales and Rental Gallery and Museum Shop images. - Page 4 - Exhibitions Photographs Collection Administrative Information Publication Information Archives and Manuscripts Collections, The Baltimore Museum of Art Restrictions on Use The Exhibitions Photographs Collection is the physical property of the Archives and Manuscripts Collections, The Baltimore Museum of Art.

Contact Information Reference Department Archives of American Art Smithsonian Institution Washington. D.C. 20560 www.aaa.si.edu/askus Transcript Preface The following oral history transcript is the result of a recorded interview with Ann Wilson on 2009 April 19-2010 July 12. The interview took place at Wilson's home in Valatie, New York, and was conducted by Jonathan Katz for the Archives of American Art, Smithsonian Institution. This transcript has been lightly edited for readability by the Archives of American Art. The reader should bear in mind that they are reading a transcript of spoken, rather than written, prose. Interview ANN WILSON: [In progress] "—happened as if it didn't come out of himself and his fixation but merged. It came to itself and is for this moment without him or her, not brought about by him or her but is itself and in this sudden seeing of itself, we make the final choice. What if it has come to be without external to us and what we read it to be then and heighten it toward that reading? If we were to leave it alone at this point of itself, our eyes aging would no longer be able to see it. External and forget the internal ordering that brought it about and without the final decision of what that ordering was about and our emphasis of it, other eyes would miss the chosen point and feel the lack of emphasis.

    Collaborative “Mail Art” Puts the Post in Postmodernism Letters, Envelopes and Enclosures Take Center Stage in an Intimate New Art Show

    Collaborative “Mail Art” Puts the Post in Postmodernism Letters, envelopes and enclosures take center stage in an intimate new art show Envelope decoration was always a staple of the mail art experience. This colorful letter was sent from performance artist Anna Banana (Anna Lee Long) to collagist John Evans in 2010. (John Evans papers, Archives of American Art). By Ryan P. Smith JULY 30, 2018 In the era of instant messaging and FaceTime on the go, it can be easy to forget the pleasure of shuffling out to the mailbox in hope of discovering a thoughtful note from an old friend. Removing a letter from its envelope is a rich tactile experience, and marginalia, cross-outs, distinct penmanship and quirky enclosures combine to give epistolary exchanges a uniquely personal flavor. In the experimental artistic simmer of the late 1950s, the everyday creativity of letter-writing gave rise to a veritable movement: that of “mail art,” an antiestablishment, anything-goes mode of serial imaginative expression whose inclusive nature has kept it alive even into the Digital Age. Now a new show, “Pushing the Envelope,” organized by the Smithsonian's Achives of 2018 American Art and opening August 10 at the Lawrence A. Fleischman Gallery in Washington, D.C., promises to shine a spotlight on the medium. The enigmatic Neo-Dada collagist Ray Johnson, a Detroit native who struggled with fame even as he appropriated images of movie stars for his art, pioneered in the field of mail art, weaving together an immense spider web of collaborators that would survive him following his sudden suicide in 1995.

Kopplin For generations, Vose Galleries has welcomed the opportunity to shine a light on the work of ‘unsung artists’ throughout art history, and in the sphere of American Impressionism there is perhaps no artist more deserving of this attention than Theodore Wendel. As part of the first wave of Americans to visit Giverny in the summer of 1887, joining John Leslie Breck, Willard Metcalf and Theodore Robinson, Wendel became one of the earliest painters to apply impressionist principles to his plein air interpretations of the French countryside; sources later reported that the master himself, Claude Monet, who limited his interactions with the Americans, thought highly of Wendel’s work. In March of 1889, short- ly after settling in Boston, Wendel organized a three-day viewing of his pastoral landscapes at a studio on Boylston Street, coinciding with Met- calf’s exhibition of foreign paintings held nearby at the St. Botolph Club. Theodore Wendel painting daughter Mary, Both artists garnered positive reviews from the local press, and over the Upper Farm, Ipswich, circa 1915 next several years Wendel maintained an active exhibition schedule, including a two-person show with Theodore Robinson in 1892, featu- provided, combined with his steady roster of exhibitions, allowed Wen- ring both oils and pastels; several solo and group shows with his fellow del to feel more financially secure in his profession and in 1897 he and Boston artists at the St.

  • The Studio Homes of Daniel Chester French by Karen Zukowski

    The Studio Homes of Daniel Chester French by Karen Zukowski

    SPRING 2018 Volume 25, No. 1 NEWSLETTER City/Country: The Studio Homes of Daniel Chester French by karen zukowski hat can the studios of Daniel Chester French (1850–1931) tell us about the man who built them? He is often described as a Wsturdy American country boy, practically self-taught, who, due to his innate talent and sterling character, rose to create the most heroic of America’s heroic sculptures. French sculpted the seated figure in Washington, D.C.’s Lincoln Memorial, which is, according to a recent report, the most popular statue in the United States.1 Of course, the real story is more complex, and examination of French’s studios both compli- cates and expands our understanding of him. For most of his life, French kept a studio home in New York City and another in Massachusetts. This city/country dynamic was essential to his creative process. BECOMING AN ARTIST French came of age as America recovered from the trauma of the Civil War and slowly prepared to become a world power. He was born in 1850 to an established New England family of gentleman farmers who also worked as lawyers and judges and held other leadership positions in civic life. French’s father was a lawyer who eventually became assistant secretary of the U.S. Treasury under President Grant. Dan (as his family called him) came to his profession while they were living in Concord, Massachusetts. This was the town renowned for plain living and high thinking, the home of literary giants Amos Bronson Alcott, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Nathaniel Hawthorne, and Henry David Thoreau at Walden Pond nearby.
