Mike Vatalaro, Pendleton, SC Legwork I think about my pots as I sit at my wheel and dig my own clay—from the pugged, de-aired, premixed, boxed and bagged lump of my favorite combination for plasticity and strength. What mix is this? I forget once in a while. I know I can get it again, and someone else knows the formula. At a workshop a few years ago, a gentle­ man from Colorado explained absorption rates and how to make tools for tests. In several studios I’ve visited, many tiles for many tests line the walls. Applications of glaze formulae on countless clay bodies abound and dizzy me with variety. Who has the time for such resolve? I reminisce about flipping the switches on my own antique kiln, watching clocks and cones. Truly ancient kilns come to mind—the ones from books. Potters stoked flames in a pit or a pile, let it breathe, stoked again, kept the heat up, watched the flame, let it cool.

    Long Gallery Educator’s Pack This pack contains information regarding the contents and themes of the objects in the Long Gallery. On our website you can find further activities and resources to explore. The first exhibition in this gallery, ’Reactions’ focuses on Dundee’s nationally important collection of studio ceramics. This pack explores some of the processes that have created the stunning pieces on display and shares some of the inspirations behind the creation of individual ceramics. Contents Reactions: Studio Ceramics from our Collection Introduction and Origins 01 Studio Pottery - Influences 02 The Process 03 Glossary 05 List of Objects - by theme What is Studio Pottery? 10 Influences 11 Ideas and Stories 14 What on Earth is Clay? 16 Getting your Hands Dirty 19 The Icing on the Cake - Glaze and Decoration 21 Fire 24 Artist Focus Stephen Bird 27 Reactions: Studio Ceramics from our collection Introduction- background and beginnings 'Studio Ceramics' or 'Studio Pottery' - can be best described as the making of clay forms by hand in a small studio rather than in a factory. Where the movement in the early days is referred to as 'Studio Pottery' due to its focus on functional vessels and 'pots', the name of 'Studio Ceramics' now refers broadly to include work by artists and designers that may be more conceptual or sculptural rather than functional. As an artistic movement Studio Ceramics has a peculiar history. It is a history that includes changes in artistic and public taste, developments in art historical terms and small and very individual stories of artists and potters.

  • Cuban Antifascism and the Spanish Civil War: Transnational Activism, Networks, and Solidarity in the 1930S
    Cuban Antifascism and the Spanish Civil War: Transnational Activism, Networks, and Solidarity in the 1930s Ariel Mae Lambe Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2014 © 2014 Ariel Mae Lambe All rights reserved ABSTRACT Cuban Antifascism and the Spanish Civil War: Transnational Activism, Networks, and Solidarity in the 1930s Ariel Mae Lambe This dissertation shows that during the Spanish Civil War (1936–1939) diverse Cubans organized to support the Spanish Second Republic, overcoming differences to coalesce around a movement they defined as antifascism. Hundreds of Cuban volunteers—more than from any other Latin American country—traveled to Spain to fight for the Republic in both the International Brigades and the regular Republican forces, to provide medical care, and to serve in other support roles; children, women, and men back home worked together to raise substantial monetary and material aid for Spanish children during the war; and longstanding groups on the island including black associations, Freemasons, anarchists, and the Communist Party leveraged organizational and publishing resources to raise awareness, garner support, fund, and otherwise assist the cause. The dissertation studies Cuban antifascist individuals, campaigns, organizations, and networks operating transnationally to help the Spanish Republic, contextualizing these efforts in Cuba’s internal struggles of the 1930s. It argues that both transnational solidarity and domestic concerns defined Cuban antifascism. First, Cubans confronting crises of democracy at home and in Spain believed fascism threatened them directly. Citing examples in Ethiopia, China, Europe, and Latin America, Cuban antifascists—like many others—feared a worldwide menace posed by fascism’s spread.

  • 1 Appalachian Center for Crafts Vince Pitelka, 2016 Glossary of Colored
    Appalachian Center for Crafts Vince Pitelka, 2016 Glossary of Colored Clay Techniques Basalt Body: a clay body containing enough metallic oxides to fire to a gray-black or chocolate brown color. Basalt bodies may be fine-grained and smooth, as in Wedgewood black basalt ware, or may be grainy and rough, as in some sculptural works by Peter Voulkos and John Mason. Burnishing: historically the third stage in pottery decoration in almost every culture, after surface impressing and slip painting. Burnishing allows for a smooth, dense, glassy surface on any clay without the use of glazes. Color intensity is enhanced with burnishing almost as effectively as with the “wetting” effect of a clear glaze, and burnishing gives a satin texture achievable through no other method. Burnishing is generally done at the bone dry stage after re-introducing moisture into the clay with a thin coat of lard, glycerin, shortening, or cooking oil. One the lard or oil is absorbed, the surface is rubbed with a smooth hard object such as a shiny pebble or the back of a steel spoon. After firing, burnished wares are often polished further with pure tung-oil (a wood-finishing oil) or furniture polish. Clay Marquetry: similar to marquetry in wood. Small pieces of damp colored clays are assembled on a clay back-up slab (with a spray of vinegar water) to create pictorial imagery. Sometimes the designs are improvised during assembly, often overlapping components. For greater precision and pictorial clarity, an original design may be executed on poster-board, which is then cut up into individual templates.

    Title: White Family Collection Manuscript Number: Mss-3325 Inclusive Dates: ca. 1925-2009 Quantity: 14.4 cu. ft. Location: WHW, Sh. B004-B006 (14.0 cu. ft.) RC21A, Sh. 005 (0.4 cu. ft.) Abstract: The White Family consisted of husband and wife Joseph Charles White and Nancy Metz White, and their twin daughters Michele and Jacqueline. Nancy was a local artist who designed and created sculptures constructed out of discarded scrap metal, heating and cooling ventilation pipes, and other recycled items. Originally from Madison, she graduated from UW- Madison with a bachelor’s degree in art education and also did graduate study there. She is primarily noted for creating large-scale outdoor public sculptures, which include Tree of Life in Mitchell Boulevard Park in 2002, Magic Grove in Enderis Park in 2006, Helping Hands at Mead Public Library in Sheboygan, and Fantasy Garden at St. John’s On the Lake. In addition to being a sculptor, Nancy also was an art teacher and the Creative Art Coordinator at Urban Day School Elementary from 1970 to 1978. Joseph C. White was born in 1925 in Michigan. He earned bachelor’s and master’s degrees from Northwestern University and also served in the Navy during World War II and the Korean conflict. In the 1960s, as Vice President of Inland Steel Products Company, he led the company’s involvement in the pioneering School Construction Systems Development (SCSD) project for California schools. He left Inland Steel and formed his own company, Syncon, to focus on modular construction projects. He was also an adjunct architecture professor at UW- Milwaukee.

  • Transforming Communities
    Transforming Communities 2019 Lost in the deep woods sheltering the Manatawny and Ironstone Creeks is the mythical Secret Valley, once the province of pioneers and patriots. Their stories can be heard in the soft winds whispering through the tall trees and towering trestles of the Colebrookdale Railroad—a magical, forgotten railway to the heart of this Secret Valley. It is your ticket to a place and time when iron rails connected a divided people and the heart of the nation pulsed with the potent energy of the steam locomotive. Completed by soldiers home from the Civil War just four months after the Transcontinental Railroad united East and West, the Colebrookdale is a record of epic engineering and heroic human drama. Eight-point-six miles long and a century- and-a-half back in time, the Secret Valley Line beckons you to experience for yourself the unexpected treasures of Southeastern Pennsylvania. 2 3 M I S S I O N TO SERVE AS A CATALYST FOR ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT THROUGH THE PRESERVATION AND INTERPRETATION OF THE HISTORIC, CULTURAL, AND NATURAL HERITAGE OF THE MIDDLE SCHUYLKILL REGION, BIRTHPLACE OF THE AMERICAN IRON INDUSTRY. 4 Make no little plans; they have no magic to stir men's blood and probably themselves will not be realized. Make big plans; aim high in hope and work, remembering that a noble, logical diagram once recorded will never die, but long after we are gone be a living thing, asserting itself with ever-growing insistency. Remember that our sons and our grandsons are going to do things that would stagger us.

    U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration REGISTER A Daily Summary of Motor Carrier Applications and of Decisions and Notices Issued by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration DECISIONS AND NOTICES RELEASED June 19, 2017 -- 10:30 AM NOTICE Please note the timeframe required to revoke a motor carrier's operating authority for failing to have sufficient levels of insurance on file is a 33 day process. The process will only allow a carrier to hold operating authority without insurance reflected on our Licensing and Insurance database for up to three (3) days. Revocation decisions will be tied to our enforcement program which will focus on the operations of uninsured carriers. This process will further ensure that the public is adequately protected in case of a motor carrier crash. Accordingly, we are adopting the following procedure for revocation of authority; 1) The first notice will go out three (3) days after FMCSA receives notification from the insurance company that the carrier's policy will be cancelled in 30 days. This notification informs the carrier that it must provide evidence that it is in full compliance with FMCSA's insurance regulations within 30 days. 2) If the carrier has not complied with FMCSA's insurance requirements after 30 days, a final decision revoking the operating authority will be issued.

  • Artist's Proposal
    Gabbert Artist’s Proposal 14th Street Roundabout Page 434 of 1673 Gabbert Sarasota Roundabout 41&14th James Gabbert Sculptor Ladies and Gentlemen, Thank you for this opportunity. For your consideration I propose a work tentatively titled “Flame”. I believe it to be simple-yet- compelling, symbolic, and appropriate to this setting. Dimensions will be 20 feet high by 14.5 feet wide by 14.5 feet deep. It sits on a 3.5 feet high by 9 feet in diameter base. (not accurately dimensioned in the 3D graphics) The composition. The design has substance, and yet, there is practically no impediment to drivers’ visibility. After review of the design by a structural engineer the flame flicks may need to be pierced with openings to meet the 150 mph wind velocity requirement. I see no problem in adjusting the design to accommodate any change like this. Fire can represent our passions, zeal, creativity, and motivation. The “flame” can suggest the light held by the Statue of Liberty, the fire from Prometheus, the spirit of the city, and the hearth-fire of 612.207.8895 | jgsculpture.webs.com | [email protected] 14th Street Roundabout Page 435 of 1673 Gabbert Sarasota Roundabout 41&14th James Gabbert Sculptor home. It would be lit at night with a soft glow from within. A flame creates a sense of place because everyone is drawn to a fire. A flame sheds light and warmth. Reference my “Hopes and Dreams” in my work example to get a sense of what this would look like. The four circles suggest unity and wholeness, or, the circle of life, or, the earth/universe.
