Eli Siegel - Poems
Classic Poetry Series Eli Siegel - poems - Publication Date: 2012 Publisher: Poemhunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive Eli Siegel(16 August 1902 - 8 November 1978) Eli Siegel was the poet and critic who founded the philosophy Aesthetic Realism in 1941. He wrote the award-winning poem, "Hot Afternoons Have Been in Montana", two highly acclaimed volumes of poetry, a critical consideration of Henry James's The Turn of the Screw titled James and the Children, and Self and World: An Explanation of Aesthetic Realism. <b>Life</b> Born in Latvia, Siegel's family came to the United States when he was an infant. He grew up in Baltimore, Maryland, where he graduated from the Baltimore City College high school, and lived most of his life in New York City. In 1925, his "Hot Afternoons Have Been in Montana" was selected from four thousand anonymously submitted poems as the winner of The Nation's esteemed poetry prize. The magazine's editors described it as "the most passionate and interesting poem which came in—a poem recording through magnificent rhythms a profound and important and beautiful vision of the earth on which afternoons and men have always existed." The poem begins: Quiet and green was the grass of the field, The sky was whole in brightness, And O, a bird was flying, high, there in the sky, So gently, so carelessly and fairly. "Hot Afternoons" was controversial; the author's innovative technique in this long, free-verse poem tended to polarize commentators, with much of the criticism taking the form of parody. -

Robert Blackburn and American Printmaking by Dr. Deborah Cullen
A Life in Print: Robert Blackburn and American Printmaking By Dr. Deborah Cullen Introduction Robert Hamilton Blackburn was born in Summit, New Jersey, on December 12, 1920. He passed on April 21, 2003, in New York City. In between these two dates, he quietly but unerringly affected the course of American art with his own graphic work. What has most generally been stated about Blackburn is that his generosity was legendary, and that he effortlessly fostered diversity on every level at his graphics workshop, The Printmaking Workshop (PMW) since its inception in 1948. (Dr. Mary Schmidt Campbell once remarked that Blackburn had invented the word 'multicultural.') He is often invoked as a black artist of the WPA, and lauded as a printer-instructor. Indeed, Blackburn brought printmaking to countless artists through PMW, and he taught at many universities throughout his life. It is also frequently acknowledged that he was the first master printer at the fabled Universal Limited Art Editions (ULAE) --- producing the initial seventy-nine editions for artists including Helen Frankenthaler, Grace Hartigan, Jasper Johns, Robert Rauschenberg, and Larry Rivers. What has rarely been noted, however, is Blackburn's own astonishing graphic oeuvre. His passage through mid-twentieth century American printmaking is epic. His lyrical and technical brilliance nurtured an art form as it was dwindling, and made a fluid and painterly style of lithography available to a new generation of artists. His own works link the Harlem WPA with the 'graphics boom' of the 1960s. His fluency and technical mastery of complex, abstract, color lithography not only contributed to forging the well- known ULAE expression, but also was prior and crucial to it. -
