  • Art in America
    MAGAZINE NOV. 01, 2013 THE PARSONS EFFECT by Judith E. Stein, Helène Aylon Betty Bierne Pierson, the rebellious, self­assured offspring of an old New York family, was 13 when she visited the historic Armory Show in 1913 and set her course on becoming an artist. Her conservative parents acquiesced to art lessons but drew the line at higher education for women. At 20, she married Schuyler Livingston Parsons, a man of wealth and social standing. He proved to be as captivated by men Betty Parsons, 1963. as she was by women, and a gambler and an alcoholic to boot. The Photo Alexander Liberman. The Getty couple divorced amicably in Paris, where she spent the 1920s in Research Institute, Los comfort, sharing her life with Adge Baker, a British art student, and Angeles. © J. Paul Getty Trust. taking classes with Ossip Zadkine and Antoine Bourdelle, among others. Her friends included expatriate Americans Hart Crane, Man Ray, Alexander Calder, and Gerald and Sara Murphy, as well as lesbian literati Gertrude Stein, Natalie Barney and Janet Flanner. Disinherited after her divorce, Parsons also lost her alimony support when the stock market crashed. Generous girlhood friends aided her return to the U.S. in 1933, first to Hollywood, where her acquaintances numbered Greta Garbo, Marlene Dietrich, Tallulah Bankhead, Dorothy Parker and Robert Benchley. She then lived in Santa Barbara, teaching art, painting portraits and consulting on French wines at a liquor store. In 1935, she funded a move to New York by selling her engagement ring. Parsons's loyal circle supplemented the slender income she earned from sales of her own art and from commissions by dealers such as Mrs.

This special five-week exhibition of work considered their best by a group of the country's most promising young painters begins Friday, March 24th. Robert Beverly Hale, Associate Curator of Painting and Sculpture in the Mu­ seum's American Art Department, made the selection for the Metropolitan. He says he feels the display will help to indicate "where the future strength of painting lies in America." Several of the artists represented have already gained recognition. Among them are Walter Stuempfig, Hedda Sterne, William Kienbusch, Reuben Tarn, Mitchell Jamieson, Edward Melcarth and Theodoros Stamos. Others, including 25-year-old Hubert Raczka and 25-year-old Siegfried* Reinhardt, are just beginning to be known. When LIFE magazine recently asked the heads of schools, museums and leading college art departments to suggest the names of American painters under the ,age of 36 whose work they considered exceptionally promising, a total of 450 names were sent in. These artists were asked by LIFE to send in photographs of their best work On the evidence of more than 1,000 photographs, 131 artists were asked to send a painting.

    015_Cubism_Abstraction.doc READINGS: CUBISM AND ABSTRACTION Background: Apollinaire, On Painting Apollinaire, Various Poems Background: Magdalena Dabrowski, "Kandinsky: Compositions" Kandinsky, Concerning the Spiritual in Art Background: Serial Music Background: Eugen Weber, CUBISM, Movements, Currents, Trends, p. 254. As part of the great campaign to break through to reality and express essentials, Paul Cezanne had developed a technique of painting in almost geometrical terms and concluded that the painter "must see in nature the cylinder, the sphere, the cone:" At the same time, the influence of African sculpture on a group of young painters and poets living in Montmartre - Picasso, Braque, Max Jacob, Apollinaire, Derain, and Andre Salmon - suggested the possibilities of simplification or schematization as a means of pointing out essential features at the expense of insignificant ones. Both Cezanne and the Africans indicated the possibility of abstracting certain qualities of the subject, using lines and planes for the purpose of emphasis. But if a subject could be analyzed into a series of significant features, it became possible (and this was the great discovery of Cubist painters) to leave the laws of perspective behind and rearrange these features in order to gain a fuller, more thorough, view of the subject. The painter could view the subject from all sides and attempt to present its various aspects all at the same time, just as they existed-simultaneously. We have here an attempt to capture yet another aspect of reality by fusing time and space in their representation as they are fused in life, but since the medium is still flat the Cubists introduced what they called a new dimension-movement.

This study explores various types of secondary education that are categorised under one of two generic terms - Jewish secondary education or secondary education for Jews. The former describes institutions, offered by individual Jews, which provided a blend of religious and/or secular education. The latter focuses on non-Jewish schools which accepted Jews (and some which did not but were, nevertheless, attended by Jews). Whilst this work emphasises London and its environs, other areas of Jewish residence, both major and minor, are also investigated.
