  • Aspects of Suburban Life- Main Street, 1937, Paul Cadmus, Loan, G360 Dunlap, Sept
    Aspects of Suburban Life: Main Street, 1937, Paul Cadmus, Curtis Galleries Loan, G360 Questions Questions 1. What’s going on in this painting? ! 2. What could be some reasons for titling this “Suburban Life”? ! 3. What could be a reason for the expression on the face of the woman dressed in black? ! 4. In 1936 Cadmus was commissioned by TRAP (later WPA) to design 4 murals for the post office (or library) in affluent Port Washington (some considered the model for Fitzgerald’s town in The Great Gatsby). His paintings, however, were rejected as inappropriate. Considering the hardships and sacrifices of the Depression, why might this have been objectionable? ! Main Points 1. The 2 girls, along with their friend, dominate the canvas and the street scene. Two carry tennis racquets. The girl closest to us resists the pull of her dachshund on a long red leash. They draw the leers or stares of disapproval from many on the street except, perhaps, the policeman who seems to halt traffic just for them to cross. 2. Small town buildings such as the Woolworth’s, the drugstore, the one with a false-front, the theater, the church spire, all proclaim Main Street, USA. Cars, not streetcars, are the preferred means of transportation as small towns become commuter communities. 3. The tennis trio seems careless and self-satisfied; their goal is to enjoy the country club life in the depths of the Depression. The commuter community is displacing/shoving aside the town’s longstanding residents. 4. The lounging “local yokels” watching the passing scene, the auto repair in progress, the contrast between the idle, complacent nouveau riche and the rest of the town, the chaotic scene -- all cast a less than ideal view of the town.

    OUR POSTWAR FOCUS: THE 1960 s-1970 s Richard Anuszkiewicz Frederick Hammersley Sam Gilliam The 22 works in this exhibition reflect the gallery’s focus on the artists of the 1960s-1970s who participated in the inter - national debate on the course of abstract painting after Abstract Expressionism. This debate was framed by two major exhibitions: Clement Greenberg’s 1964 exhibition Post-Painterly Abstraction at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art and William Seitz’s 1965 exhibition The Responsive Eye at the Museum of Modern Art. Post-Painterly Abstraction took from Abstract Expressionism its large format and added open compositions with expan - sive, flattened planes of color, or “color fields.” Clement Greenberg championed this style, favoring “staining” where artists use as little pigment as possible and let the unprepared canvas absorb the paint. Other artists within the Color Field style refused to sacrifice the even, smooth, and controlled surfaces achieved with prepared canvases. By preparing the ground of their paintings, these artists went against Greenberg’s theories. The two opposing approaches to Color Field painting are shown in our exhibition. Greenberg’s “staining” is represented by Sam Gilliam’s (b. 1933) Red Linger , 1972 and Paul Reed’s (b. 1919) 16I , 1963, while Paul Jenkins’ (1923-2012) Phenomena Maimonides Mantle , 1979 and Phenomena Sufi Procession , 1974 are examples of the free-flowing color achieved with primed canvases. In addition to Color Field painting, the 1960s saw groups of artists return to geometric compositions. In California one of these geometric groups was called the Abstract Classicists. They reacted against the emphasis Abstract Expressionism had placed on personal emotions.

  • Modernism 1 Modernism
    Modernism 1 Modernism Modernism, in its broadest definition, is modern thought, character, or practice. More specifically, the term describes the modernist movement, its set of cultural tendencies and array of associated cultural movements, originally arising from wide-scale and far-reaching changes to Western society in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Modernism was a revolt against the conservative values of realism.[2] [3] [4] Arguably the most paradigmatic motive of modernism is the rejection of tradition and its reprise, incorporation, rewriting, recapitulation, revision and parody in new forms.[5] [6] [7] Modernism rejected the lingering certainty of Enlightenment thinking and also rejected the existence of a compassionate, all-powerful Creator God.[8] [9] In general, the term modernism encompasses the activities and output of those who felt the "traditional" forms of art, architecture, literature, religious faith, social organization and daily life were becoming outdated in the new economic, social, and political conditions of an Hans Hofmann, "The Gate", 1959–1960, emerging fully industrialized world.

Another paradigmatic exhortation was also as a teacher of art, and a modernist theorist articulated by philosopher and composer Theodor Adorno, who, in the both in his native Germany and later in the U.S. During the 1930s in New York and California he 1940s, challenged conventional surface coherence and appearance of introduced modernism and modernist theories to [10] harmony typical of the rationality of Enlightenment thinking.

    Oral history interview with Paul Cadmus, 1988 March 22-May 5 Funding for the digital preservation of this interview was provided by a grant from the Save America's Treasures Program of the National Park Service. 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 tape-recorded interview with Paul Cadmus on March 22, 1988. The interview took place in Weston, Connecticut, and was conducted by Judd Tully for the Archives of American Art, Smithsonian Institution. Interview JUDD TULLY: Tell me something about your childhood. You were born in Manhattan? PAUL CADMUS: I was born in Manhattan. I think born at home. I don't think I was born in a hospital. I think that the doctor who delivered me was my uncle by marriage. He was Dr. Brown Morgan. JUDD TULLY: Were you the youngest child? PAUL CADMUS: No. I'm the oldest. I's just myself and my sister. I was born on December 17, 1904. My sister was born two years later. We were the only ones. We were very, very poor. My father earned a living by being a commercial lithographer. He wanted to be an artist, a painter, but he was foiled. As I say, he had to make a living to support his family. We were so poor that I suffered from malnutrition. Maybe that was the diet, too. I don't know. I had rickets as a child, which is hardly ever heard of nowadays.

Past exhibitions ranged from one-man shows that included Philip Johnson, Tom Wesselmann, William Kentridge, Oleg Kudryashov and Washington artists Sam Gilliam, William Christenberry, Kendall Buster, Dan Steinhilber, and Gene Davis, to group shows with selections from the di Rosa Preserve collection of California Bay Area artists and the New York artist collective, Tim Rollins + K.O.S. Each of these exhibitions focused on a particular aspect of the Museum’s permanent collection, architecture or mission. Over the last twenty years, Washington artists have played a prominent role in the Museum’s histor y— in exhibitions, public programs, educational initiatives and outreach activities. In honor of The Kreeger Museum 20th Anniversary and to acknowledge my respect for the DC art community, I asked Sarah Tanguy to curate an exhibition of Washington area artists, each of whom has exhibited at the Museum, either in a group or one-person show. These fourteen artists represent the outstanding talent and commitment prevalent in the nation’s capital. This exhibition was made possible by the generosity of the following sponsors: Aon Huntington Block Insurance; Giselle and Ben Huberman; Frederick P.

    Rochelle Feinstein: Fredonia! November 20th - January 9th, 2021 6315 NW 2nd Ave Miami, Florida 33157 +1 305 571 2288 ninajohnson.com CONTENTS Fredonia! 5 About Rochelle Feinstein 7 About Nina Johnson 9 Works 10 CV 36 Press 42 ` FREDONIA! Nina Johnson is proud to present Fredonia!, an exhibition of new and recent paintings by Rochelle Feinstein, opening on November 20th, 2020 and remaining on view through January 9th, 2021. Feinstein is a legendary painter, whose work and ideas about abstraction have influenced gen- erations of artists. Over the past four decades, she has deflated the dogmas of modernism with humor and verve, liberally borrowing from different schools of painting, as well as other mediums, including drawing, photography, printmaking, sculpture, video, and installation. Though it takes myriad forms, her singular project always centers painting within culture at large. Fredonia! refers to a fictional utopia, a 19th-century name for the United States that never took off, and a failed country in the 1933 Marx Brothers film Duck Soup. The exhibition features sev- eral recent bodies of work which reflect upon this time of turmoil, anxiety, and gallows humor. Feinstein uses the motif of the rainbow—a visual trope and cultural artifact first explored while in residence at the American Academy in Rome—to present works rich in color and connotation. She moves freely through the history of late 20th-century painting, rejoicing in materiality while poking holes in the notion of pure painting. In one, thick pools of paint are stitched together with a zigzagging horizontal length of acrylic yarn. It first appears as a harshly linear intrusion fracturing the painting.
