This comes with a magnificent account of the year’s exhibitions in Stockbridge and across the nation, educational and community programs, scholarship to advance illustration art, and curatorial achievements. This remarkable Museum does all of this and more, inspired by the values Norman Rockwell depicted in his iconic paintings. His works portray freedom, tolerance, humanity and kindness, integrity, honesty, and authenticity along with a joyfulness and celebration of life. These values inspire our visitors and staff alike. The Museum concluded its fiscal year on June 30, 2012 in a strong position. As noted a year ago, we eliminated our long-term debt.

    Chapter 1 1850-1890: The Dawn of Modern Clothing This Teacher’s Guide, compiled with the assistance of Stephanie Kramer, is designed to provide you with a summary of the key points in the development of fashion during the period/decade covered in this chapter. It also provides a concise survey of the significant designers of the time, essay and discussion questions, and further reading and research suggestions. Objective The main objective of this chapter is to study the development of fashion during the second half of the 19th century, particularly the establishment of those aspects of the fashion system that are still in place today. Fashion in this period reflected the latest developments in engineering, chemistry, and communication and witnessed development of the role of the “fashion designer.” Key Teaching Points The following teaching points have been arranged thematically and highlight the important topics that need to be covered in order to meet the main objective of the chapter. Social and Economic Background • Britain o reign of Queen Victoria (1837-1901); stress on propriety and etiquette o rapid industrialization o expanding overseas empire • United States o impact of Civil War (1861-1865) on global trade o emergence as industrial power • France o reestablishment of court during Second Empire (begins 1852, ends with Franco-Prussian war 1870) o transformation of Paris into fashionable modern city • Japan o opens borders (1853-1854) o goods enter the Western market and impact Western tastes The Arts • Orientalism and Academic

  • A Critical Re-Analysis of the Business Philosophies, Production Values and Studio Practices of Animator-Producer Paul Houlton Terry
    “DISNEY IS THE TIFFANY’S AND I AM THE WOOLWORTH’S OF THE BUSINESS”: A CRITICAL RE-ANALYSIS OF THE BUSINESS PHILOSOPHIES, PRODUCTION VALUES AND STUDIO PRACTICES OF ANIMATOR-PRODUCER PAUL HOULTON TERRY A dissertation submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy By Wynn Gerald Hamonic School of Arts, Brunel University June 2011 Abstract of the Dissertation ―Disney is the Tiffany‘s and I am the Woolworth‘s of the Business‖: A Critical Re-Analysis of the Business Philosophies, Production Values and Studio Practices of Animator-Producer Paul Houlton Terry by Wynn Gerald Hamonic Doctor of Philosophy Brunel University, 2011 Animator-producer Paul Houlton Terry has been portrayed as having little passion for the animation he produced and being more concerned with making a profit than producing entertaining cartoons with high production values. The purpose of the dissertation is to re- evaluate Terry‘s legacy to animated cartooning by analyzing his business philosophies, production values, and studio practices. Application of four psychodynamic factors to the early life and career of Terry, 1887-1929, found that his economic decision making was characterized by: an external locus of control, risk- averse financial behaviour, extreme saving behaviour through precaution, and shrewd money management practices. Based on Terry‘s historical responses to twelve major economic, technological, or institutional forces of change for the period 1929-1955, the psychodynamic factors were found to provide accurate explanations for his studio practices and production decisions. There was no evidence to support the conclusion that three early career disappointments undermined Terry‘s intrinsic motivation to create animated cartoons.

For the past few weeks, WWD has been attending fashion shows featuring student work from design schools around the country, and we’ve found that the future is indeed bright for the industry. Here, from Ashleigh Verrier, one of two designers of the year at Parsons School of Design, a velveteen coat, satin skirt and chiffon blouse. An intern at Proenza Schouler, she says of her post-grad plans, “I’d love to start my own company but I know that I have to respect the necessary evolution to get there.” For more from the student runways, see pages 6 and 7.

    Line & la Mode dans la presse lausannoise Exposition du 24 janvier au 31 décembre 2012 aux Archives cantonales vaudoises Biographie de Jacqueline Jonas Jacqueline Jonas est née le 16 août 1923, au chemin de Roseneck, à Lausanne, à 22h.30 ! Son père, d'origine allemande, après avoir travaillé d'abord à Zurich, puis à Lausanne où il connut sa mère, avant la Première Guerre mondiale, fut mobilisé. Ils se marièrent en 1921. En 1934, dans un contexte d'incertitude politique, les autorités allemandes retirèrent à la famille sa nationalité allemande, du fait des lois antisémites. La première demande de naturalisation suisse, en 1936, lui fut refusée, malgré la nationalité suisse de sa mère. Son frère, sa soeur et elle-même, tous nés à Lausanne, et ses parents n'étaient pas assez « assimilés » ! La seconde demande, formulée en 1946, fut accordée sans problèmes, « ils étaient de tout bons éléments ». Après avoir fréquenté jusqu'à l'âge de 16 ans l'Ecole supérieure de Jeunes filles de Villamont, à Lausanne, Jacqueline Jonas ne put pas poursuivre ses études, en raison de la situation politique. Elle suivit néanmoins 4 mois de cours de sténo, dactylo, comptabilité, 4 autres mois de coupe et couture ; elle fut quelque temps secrétaire de son père. Douée pour le dessin, Jacqueline Jonas gagna des concours de dessin pendant les vacances, ainsi que de bonnes notes pendant l'année scolaire. Le Destin a voulu que la doctoresse de la famille Jonas ait donné des soins à Mlle Jacobi, réfugiée de Berlin, ayant travaillé dans une grande Maison d'éditions, de journaux, de mode et de patrons.

March 2008 Fashion ISBN: 978-0-977787-54-0 216 pages / Over 200 Color Illustrations Kenneth Paul Block is one of the most influential fashion illustrators of the twentieth century. His first job was at the powerful Women’s Wear Daily in the 1950s, an association that lasted over thirty years and where Kenneth witnessed and recorded one of the most important periods in fashion history—the postwar shift as the exclusive world of couture transformed into prêt-à- porter. Attending all the major fashion shows in Paris, London, and New York, Kenneth was the first one on the scene, drawing the latest style-setting clothes from such venerable houses as Balenciaga, Chanel, and Saint Laurent. He also documented the up and coming designers of the time, including Marc Jacobs, Perry Ellis, and Halston. He was well known in society, sketch- ing Gloria Vanderbilt and the Duchess of Windsor. He reported on sensational parties in Palm Beach and New York attended by Babe Paley and Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis and created a unique archive of the era. Drawing Fashion: The Art of Kenneth Paul Block is the first mono- graph on the artist and brings together a lifetime of drawings, watercolors, and observations.

  • Spring 2020 2 Category Category 3 a Note from the Publisher
    SPRING 2020 WWW.POINTEDLEAFPRESS.COM 2 CATEGORY CATEGORY 3 A NOTE FROM THE PUBLISHER It gives me great pleasure to present the Pointed Leaf Press catalog for Spring 2020. Since the company was founded in 2002, it has grown to become one of the top—and award-winning—publishers of illustrated books in the worlds of interior design, landscape design, architecture, fashion, art, and photography. As a former art historian, and with over 35 years as a journalist, editor, and reporter, at such publications as the New York Times, as well as at numerous magazines such as New York, Esquire, and House & Garden, I continue to be fascinated by the careers and accomplishments—as well as the intimate and powerful stories—of the talented people in the creative fields that are so influential and essential to the world in which we live. At Pointed Leaf Press, I work closely with Frederico Farina, our creative director, to ensure that each of our books is designed, produced, and edited to the highest standards. Each of our titles is individualistic and created to suit the needs and aspirations of its author—whether to feature, for today’s audiences, the work of top interior designers and architects, to introduce the work of legendary photographers to a new generation, or to bring attention to an important, emerging talent. Collecting, one of my life-long passions, is also the focus of many of our titles, offering a glimpse into subjects that are both original and stimulating. I am particularly proud that many of our custom-designed books have not only been successful in the marketplace, but continue to serve as efficient marketing and branding tools for their authors.
