EG:: In Russia. MM:: What year? EG:: 1901. MM:: What town were you born in? EG:: In a wonderful little place called Krivoi Rog. It's a metal-lurgical center that was very important in the second World War. A great deal of fighting went on there, and it figured very largely in the German-Russian campaign. MM:: When did you come to the United States? EG:: 1903. MM:: You were saying that you came to the United States in 1903, so you were only two years old. EG:: Yes. MM:: Where did you receive your art training? EG:: Very briefly, I had a couple of scholarships to the Art Students League. MM:: In New York City? EG:: Yes. And then I got married and went to Woodstock and worked there by myself. John Flanagan, the sculptor, was a great friend of ours, and he was up there, too. I was very much influenced by him. He used to take the boulders in the field and make his sculptures of them, and also the wood that was indigenous to the neighborhood -- ash, pine, apple wood, and so forth.

Knoblauch March 2012 © 2012 William M. Knoblauch. All Rights Reserved. 2 This dissertation titled Selling the Second Cold War: Antinuclear Cultural Activism and Reagan Era Foreign Policy by WILLIAM M. KNOBLAUCH has been approved for the Department of History and the College of Arts and Sciences by __________________________________ Chester J. Pach Associate Professor of History __________________________________ Howard Dewald Dean, College of Arts and Sciences 3 ABSTRACT KNOBLAUCH, WILLIAM M., Ph.D., March 2012, History Selling the Second Cold War: Antinuclear Cultural Activism and Reagan Era Foreign Policy Director of Dissertation: Chester J. Pach This dissertation examines how 1980s antinuclear activists utilized popular culture to criticize the Reagan administration’s arms buildup. The 1970s and the era of détente marked a decade-long nadir for American antinuclear activism. Ronald Reagan’s rise to the presidency in 1981 helped to usher in the “Second Cold War,” a period of reignited Cold War animosities that rekindled atomic anxiety. As the arms race escalated, antinuclear activism surged. Alongside grassroots movements, such as the nuclear freeze campaign, a unique group of antinuclear activists—including publishers, authors, directors, musicians, scientists, and celebrities—challenged Reagan’s military buildup in American mass media and popular culture. These activists included Fate of the Earth author Jonathan Schell, Day After director Nicholas Meyer, and “nuclear winter” scientific-spokesperson Carl Sagan.

  • Other Artist Bios
    CSFINEARTSCENTER.ORG Contact: Warren Epstein, Media Relations and Community Outreach Manager 719.477.4316; [email protected] Other Artist Bios Jozef Bakos (1891–1977) The Polish artist founded Los Cinco Pintores (the five painters) , Santa Fe's first Modernist art group, and was dedicated to works that depicted specifically American subjects, such as the New Mexico landscape, local adobe architecture and Native American dances. He studied art with John E. Thompson at the Albright Art Institute in Buffalo, New York, and taught at the University of Colorado in Boulder. In 1920, during a break from teaching, Bakos visited Walter Mruk, a childhood friend and artist who was living in Santa Fe. During his stay he exhibited some paintings together with Mruk at the Museum of Fine Arts in Santa Fe. Gustave Baumann (1881–1971) Baumann was one of the leading figures of the color-woodcut revival in America. Born in Magdeburg, Germany, Baumann moved to the U.S. at the age of 10 and by 17, attended night classes at the Art Institute of Chicago. After spending time in Brown County, Ind., as a member of the Brown County Art Colony, Baumann headed to the Southwest in 1918. He found Taos to be too crowded and social but eventually ended up settling in Santa Fe, where he became known as a master of woodcuts, while also producing oils and sculpture. Tom Benrimo (1887 – 1958) A self-taught artist, Benrimo was born in San Francisco and lived there until the San Francisco earthquake and fire of 1906 destroyed his home. Relocating to New York with his family, he worked as a scenic designer for theatrical shows and created illustrations for various advertising companies.

  • Minna Citron: a Socio-Historical Study Of
    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School Department of Art History MINNA CITRON: A SOCIO-HISTORICAL STUDY OF AN ARTIST’S FEMINIST SOCIAL REALISM IN THE 1930S A Thesis in Art History by Jennifer L. Streb © 2004 Jennifer L. Streb Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy December 2004 The thesis of Jennifer L Streb was reviewed and approved* by the following: Sarah K. Rich Assistant Professor of Art History Thesis Advisor Chair of Committee Craig Zabel Associate Professor of Art History Head of the Department of Art History Joyce Henri Robinson Curator, Palmer Museum of Art Affiliate Associate Professor, Department of Art History Nan E. Woodruff Professor of History * Signatures are on file in the Graduate School ABSTRACT Minna Citron (1896-1991) was a lifelong self-proclaimed feminist, a divorced mother and an artist who believed in individual expression. One of her main artistic interests, particularly early in her career, was the way feminist concerns related to her dual roles as wife/mother and professional artist. She struggled to make a name for herself in the male-dominated art world between the 1930s and 1950s, beginning during a decade in which social roles for women increasingly tended towards domesticity. By the late 1960s, however, Citron’s interest in feminism was renewed by a new generation of women. The course upon which she set herself, in many ways, was uncharted and her concern with women’s issues and the challenges faced by women perhaps resonate more clearly with us today than while she was alive.
