    Thresholds 16 REPRODUCTION IN AGE OF THE MECHANICAL WORK OF ART Kevin Fellingham This is not really about speed. It is rather about touch. A slow and gentle touch may be called a caress, if at high speed and with great force, an impact. Speed and force. Perhaps we could say it is about velocity It may also be about the promiscuity of ideas. If Hannah Arendt is to be believed, then Walter Benjamin desired to produce "a work consisting entirely of quotations, one that was mounted so masterfully that it could dispense with any accompanying text, "which" may strike one as whimsical in the extreme and self-destructive to boot, but it was not, any more than were the contemporaneous surrealistic experiments which arose from similar impulses.

  • Sculptor Charles Adrian Pillars
    CHARLES ADRIAN PILLARS (1870-1937), JACKSONVILLE‟S MOST NOTED SCULPTOR By DIANNE CRUM DAWOOD A THESIS PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2011 1 © 2011 Dianne Crum Dawood 2 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would first like to acknowledge my thesis chair, Dr. Melissa Hyde, and committee members, Dr. Eric Segal and Dr. Victoria Rovine, for serving on this project for me. Their suggestions, insightful analysis, encouragement, and confidence in my candidacy for a master‟s in art history were important support. I also enjoyed their friendship and patience during this process. The wordsmithing and editing guidance of Mary McClurkin was a delightful collaboration that culminated in a timely finished paper and a treasured friendship. Assistance from Deanne and Ira in the search of microfilm and microfiche records turned a project of anticipated drudgery into a treasure hunt of exciting finds. I also appreciated the suggestions and continued interest of Dr. Wayne Wood, who assured me that Charles Adrian Pillars‟s story was worthy of serious research that culminated in learning details of his life and career heretofore unknown outside of Pillars‟s family. Interviews with Pillars‟s daughter, Ann Pillars Durham, were engaging time travels recalling her father and his celebrity and the family‟s economic and personal vicissitudes during the Great Depression. She also graciously allowed me to review her personal papers. Wells & Drew, the parent company of which was founded in Jacksonville in 1855, permitted my use of a color image, and The Florida Times-Union granted permission to use some of their photographs in this paper.

    ITALIAN MODERN ART | ISSUE 3: ISSN 2640-8511 Introduction ITALIAN MODERN ART - ISSUE 3 | INTRODUCTION italianmodernart.org/journal/articles/introduction-3 Raffaele Bedarida | Silvia Bignami | Davide Colombo Methodologies of Exchange: MoMA’s “Twentieth-Century Italian Art” (1949), Issue 3, January 2020 https://www.italianmodernart.org/journal/issues/methodologies-of- exchange-momas-twentieth-century-italian-art-1949/ ABSTRACT A brief overview of the third issue of Italian Modern Art dedicated to the MoMA 1949 exhibition Twentieth-Century Italian Art, including a literature review, methodological framework, and acknowledgments. If the study of artistic exchange across national boundaries has grown exponentially over the past decade as art historians have interrogated historical patterns, cultural dynamics, and the historical consequences of globalization, within such study the exchange between Italy and the United States in the twentieth-century has emerged as an exemplary case.1 A major reason for this is the history of significant migration from the former to the latter, contributing to the establishment of transatlantic networks and avenues for cultural exchange. Waves of migration due to economic necessity in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries gave way to the smaller in size but culturally impactful arrival in the U.S. of exiled Jews and political dissidents who left Fascist Italy during Benito Mussolini’s regime. In reverse, the presence in Italy of Americans – often participants in the Grand Tour or, in the 1950s, the so-called “Roman Holiday” phenomenon – helped to making Italian art, past and present, an important component in the formation of American artists and intellectuals.2 This history of exchange between Italy and the U.S.

  • G01EBJEL Fromvienna to Dagmar
    DOLPH G01EBJEL fromVienna to Dagmar by Lloyd E. Klos While doing research for this mag­ azine's "Nuggets" columns, we have frequently seen the name of Adolph (Dolph) Goebel, who presided at or­ gan consoles in eastern seaboard the­ atres from Massachusetts to Geor­ gia, and in Omaha and Wisconsin. Through the graciousness of Mr. Goebel 's widow, his voluminous scrapbook was made available to the writer in 1977, and in the following we shall attempt to trace a very active career.

  • Hybrid Program Featuring Live Performances and Dance Films by Current Students and Alumni Curator/Artistic Direc
    Gaucho Reunion: Hybrid Program featuring live performances and dance films by current students and alumni Curator/Artistic Director Brandon Whited June 19, 2021 Center Stage Theater Director’s Note It is with great joy and pleasure that we welcome you back to the theater. It goes without saying that this has been an incredi- bly challenging year. While many industries have been effected by the pandemic in significant ways, the performing arts—and dance in particular—have endured devastating economic and structural ramifi- cations. COVID’s impact on the arts has been widely un-addressed at the governmental level and it is due to the unshakeable support of arts advocates, donors, and community organizers that we are here today. This year—and the end of last school year—has had a dispro- portionate sense of loss for our seniors. The students’ visions for the culmination of four years of study took a sharp turn. Yet, with grace and adaptability they met the challenges and losses with energy and passion and turned every opportunity into a meaningful experience. It is with great pride that we witness the transcendence of these short- falls—both locally, and more broadly across the field of dance. When submissions for the festival call came in, and the pro- gram curation started taking shape, it was the robust response from new and recent UCSB Alumni that inspired the program tonight. The choreographers, directors, filmmakers, and dancers presenting their work are representatives of various cohorts from the last few years. Their assemblage expresses the power of lineage and the shared history that connects graduates of any institution.
