INTRODUCTION .THE Read SNEECHES" by Dr. Suess. lt takes about 4-Trminules to read the story. to vol Dr. Suess books can be enjoyed by people of all ages. You may preface the story with older students by acknowledging that they may have read this book a long time ago, but there are often deeper meanings to his sfon'es. Do a summary of the story if that better suits your needs, or ask a student who knows the story to do so. Like the Sneeches, Lois Mailou Jones was an African American artist who was sometimes treated differently for two reasons. One was that the color of her skin was black and for a long time in this country black people were not treated the same as white Americans. Of course today, we understand that this is wrong. People are people no matter what the color of their skin is or whether or not they have stars on their bellies! The other reason she was sometimes treated differently was because she was a woman. Most people thought being an artist was not a good job for a woman. Now, let's look at the art of this woman named Lois Mailou Jones. Say her name with me... 14E$T#RY Proroeupn or Lots Mnlou Jotes 1925 Lois Mailou Jones grew up in Boston, Massachusetts where she was born a little more than one hundred years ago. Her father was one of the first African Americans to finish law school there and her mother worked in a beauty shop and designed hats. Her family was able to live a fairly privileged lifestyle in Boston as part of wealthy African American society. But for most of her life, Lois lived in a world where her choices of which school she could go to, what restaurant to eat at and where she could sit on a bus were limited because the color of her skin was black. 2 | PowerPoint Presentation Frsnlrc Sltlcxs. Menemsnl. Mnss. 1932, wATERcoLoR, 20-%x26-/o" During the summer, Lois, her older brother and mother spent their vacation on the island of Martha's Vineyard. Here is where she says her "life in art really began". Many of her early pictures were of the things she saw there like this watercolor painting of fishing boats. When she was 15, her mother hung Lois' artwork on the clothesline in their garden and invited the neighbors over for refreshments and Lois' first art show. Gnocnerre 1928, cREToNNE TEXTILE DESlcN, 40-114 x 30" Lois went to art school in Boston and after graduating began a career as a textile artist. Say that with me. ...Textile is another word for cloth or fabrics. Her job was to create designs like this one that were printed on sheets, clothing and furniture. Her textile designs won prizes and awards. "lt was exciting", she wrote, "to be in New York and see a window display of couches and chairs covered in one of her fabrics." But she soon realized few people would know she designed it, since the artist's name is not printed onto fabric like it is on a painting where you sign your name. She decided to switch back to painting and drawing so she would be recognized for her work. Let's look at the colors Lois used in this textile design. Colors are often described as being either warm or cool.The warm colors are red, orange and yellow. Where do you see a warm color in this design? The cool colors are green, blue and violet. Where do you see some cool colors in this design? AESTHETICS to volun These questions are meant to be open'ended; there is no ight or wrong answer. When a textite is printed usually only the manufacturer's name is shown on the edge. Do you think the artist's name should also be shown? Why or why not? n i. ffi€&€*ffiY {c*re€"} Neeno Yourn 1929, cHARcoAL, 29 x 22" When she tried to get a job as a teaching assistant at a Boston art school, they turned her down. Not because she would not be a good teacher, but because she was a black woman. lt wasn't long before Lois heard about the need for young educated teachers to work with black students in the South. She decided to give it a try and got a job teaching art in a small college in North Carolina. That began what turned out to be a Sglyear career as an art teacher! She loved her students and teaching and started making time for her own art, like this charcoal drawing for which she won an award. Fyl The information contained in a box in this lesson is added for the adult volunteer's enrichment (think of it as a giant parenthesis in the middle of the lesson). Generally, the information is not intended fbr inclusion in the classroom presentation. However, if appropriate, you may wish to present some of this information to the students. ln the summer of 1928, at a lecture for young adults convened by Boston's black scholars, Lois Jones met Charlotte Hawkins Brown, founder and director of the Palmer Memorial lnstitute, a junior college in North Carolina. She mentioned the need for young educators to come to the South anJ teach. Her appeal was so moving after she finished, Jones told her she was interested in establishing an art department at Palmer if they didn't have one. Ms. Brown thought Jones was too young, at 23, and didn't think she'd be able to do it, but Jones convinced her otherwise. ln addition to her duties in the fledgling art department, she coached the basketball team' taught folk dancing and played piano for Sunday Cha_pel services. Jones rernained at Palmer untii t ggO when she was recruited by the chairman of the art department at Howard University in Washington, D.C. During her a7 year cireer as a professor of design and-waterco.lor painting, Jones instructed moreihan 250b students- young, old, amateur and professional and of many racial and ethnic.backgrounds. Her importance to their collective artistic development is evident in the numbdr and'caliber of her students who have distinguished themselves as professional designers, graphic artists, educators, painters and sculptors. Tne Ascenr or Erntopll 1932, oll oN cANVAS, 23-112 x 17-114" When Lois was about 25 years old, she was inspired by something happening in New York called the Harlem Renaissance. lt was a time when many talented African Americans came to a mostly black neighborhood in New York City called Harlem. lt was here that an explosion of creativity was happening in art, music, dance and literature. These artists were celebrating their African heritage and Lois created this painting, which tells the story of these African Americans in the United States. Let's look at the story she tells. The face of an African king in the lower right corner guides our eyes to the sad figures in chains, which represent FYI The Harlem Renaissance was an era in which slavery.

  • Modernism, the Harlem Renaissance and Europe
    Patterns of Change: the Work of Loïs Mailou Jones By Catherine Bernard, Ph.D. Loïs Mailou Jones’ artistic development is intimately connected to her exposure to diverse cultures. The following brief survey of a career that spanned over six decades is an attempt to uncover the complexity of Jones’ creative development and to examine some of the artistic and political choices she made in direct relation to her travels to Europe, Haiti and the African continent. In fact, crucial stylistic changes occurred as she integrated the knowledge and experience gathered through her exposure to these different cultures, and her canvases reflect her enduring passion for people and places. Throughout the history of African-American art, a number of intellectuals, activists and artists traveled to Europe, Africa and the Caribbean and encountered new cultural environments. The chief motivation was to escape segregation and racism and to have the opportunity to explore new creative paths and materials in a friendlier atmosphere. In this regard, Jones’ itinerary is exemplary. She found herself at the crossroads of some the most influential movements of the 20th century: the Harlem Renaissance, the Civil Rights movements, Pan-Africanism. She participated in each of these movements while challenging herself by renewing her artistic choices continuously. Modernism, the Harlem Renaissance and Europe 1 I love people and places so that the desire to travel began very early with me.1 The very first time Loïs Jones felt the desire to travel abroad was after one of her conversations with sculptor Meta Warrick Fuller. She had met Fuller along with musician and composer Harry T.

Rich Associate Professor of Art History Co-Chair of Committee Charlotte Houghton Associate Professor of Art History Joan Landes Ferree Professor of History and Women’s Studies Craig Zabel Associate Professor of Art History Head of the Department of Art History *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School. iii ABSTRACT In 1943 Professor James V. Herring along with Alonzo J. Aden, his former student and colleague at Howard University, opened the Barnett Aden Gallery within the modest home they shared in Washington, D.C. As founders of one of the first black- owned galleries in the nation, their mission was to provide an exhibition space for talented artists without regard to ethnicity or national origin. During the next twenty-five years, the Barnett Aden Gallery became a unique site for cross-cultural exchange—where artists, writers, musicians, and politicians of all races met freely for social, professional, and aesthetic discourse—one of few such places in severely segregated Washington, D.C. The Barnett Aden performed the traditional gallery function of featuring talented emerging artists, but it provided a critical service for African American artists, who had few opportunities to show their work in parity with white artists or even to see evidence of their existence within established art institutions.

  • Lois Mailou Jones: Color Tells a Story by Michael O'sullivan Friday, December 24, 2010
    Lois Mailou Jones: Color tells a story By Michael O'Sullivan Friday, December 24, 2010 True to its title, "Lois Mailou Jones: A Life in Vibrant Color" is a biography of sorts. Part of that story is told in pictures, some 70 of which are on view at theNational Museum of Women in the Arts. And colorful they are. From Jones's early, almost abstract fabric designs of the late 1920s to her still lifes of fruit and flowers (painted into the 1990s), warm, rich color is central to the work of the late Washington-based painter (1905-1998), who taught in the Howard University art department from 1930 to 1977. But there's another meaning suggested by the word color in the title. As an African American, Jones's race and heritage played an important - and at times challenging - role in her career. Take the 1940 landscape "Indian Shops, Gay Head, Many of Jones's works reflect her African American heritage. The portrait "Jennie," top, Massachusetts." When Jones submitted that pretty little speaks to black dignity canvas to a competition at the Corcoran Gallery of Art in 1941, blacks were not allowed to enter. For that reason, the artist asked a French friend (fellow artist Celine Tabary, seen in Jones's 1940 watercolor "Celine") to drop off the painting for her. As it happens, "Indian Shops" went on to win the contest's Robert Woods Bliss Landscape Prize. Rather than blow her cover by accepting the award in person, Jones asked to have it mailed to her. It was not until the painter's 89th birthday - celebrated with a party at the Corcoran - that the museum officially apologized for its discriminatory policies.
