  • ANTHONY CAMPAGNA ESTATE 640 West 249Th Street, the Bronx
    Landmarks Preservation Commission November 16, 1993, Designation List 255 LP-1887 ANTHONY CAMPAGNA ESTATE 640 West 249th Street, The Bronx. Built 1929-1930; architect Dwight James Baum. Landmark Site: Borough of The Bronx Tax Map Block 5914, Lot 315. On June 2, 1992, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the Anthony Campagna Estate and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 3). At the request of the owner, the hearing was continued to December 8, 1992 (Item No. 2). Both hearings were duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. At the two hearings, there were eight speakers in favor of the designation and none in opposition; the then owners took no position. The current owners have not taken a position on designation. DESCRIPTION AND ANALYSIS Summary The Anthony Campagna Estate was built in 1929-30 in the Riverdale section of the Bronx as the home of this prominent Italian-born New York City builder and philanthropist. The work of Dwight James Baum, a leading New York City architect praised for his carefully conceived and executed suburban and country residences, the house is modeled after Italian villas, an unusual prototype for New York City. The elements of the landscape design, by Ferruccio Vitale, an Italian-born landscape architect, and his partner Alfred Geiffert, Jr., were also based on Italian prototypes, in keeping with the design of the house, and won the 1934 gold medal in landscape architecture from the Architectural League of New York. The design of the house and grounds, on a site overlooking the Hudson River to the Palisades, is one of Baum's most impressive and is a major example of 1920s architectural eclecticism by a recognized master of the genre.

    UC Irvine Journal for Learning through the Arts Title Can Architects Help Transform Public Education? What the Sarasota County Civic School Building Program (1955-1960) Teaches Us Permalink https://escholarship.org/uc/item/1479d3wp Journal Journal for Learning through the Arts, 9(1) Author Paley, Nicholas B. Publication Date 2013 DOI 10.21977/D9912643 eScholarship.org Powered by the California Digital Library University of California Can Architects Help Transform Public Education? What the Sarasota County School Building Program (1955-1960) Teaches Us Author: Nicholas Paley Graduate School of Education George Washington University Washington, DC 20052 [email protected] Word Count: 10,270 Abstract: The Sarasota County School Building Program (1955-1960) is revisited through a detailed examination of how architects and educators collaborated to design an innovative group of public schools that provided opportunities for the transformation of learning space. This multi-dimensioned examination is grounded in a historical contextualization of the school building program, in visual and discursive archival analysis related to three of the schools considered especially notable, and in the integration of contemporary voices of some of the teachers, students, and educational employees who worked in these schools. A concluding section discusses four key lessons of this artistic-educational collaboration that might be fruitful for educators to ponder as they seek to create the kinds of community-based learning environments that optimize students’ educational experiences. Introduction From 1955-1960, one of the most remarkable public school building programs in the history of American education took place in Sarasota, Florida. In less than a decade, projects for nine new elementary and secondary schools or additions were commissioned, designed, and constructed --and almost immediately--were being acclaimed as some of the most exciting and varied new schools being built anywhere.

  • Changing Patterns of Discard and Re-Use of Ground Stone Tools in Middle Bronze Age Cyprus
    sustainability Article How Rocks Die: Changing Patterns of Discard and Re-Use of Ground Stone Tools in Middle Bronze Age Cyprus Andrew McCarthy School of History Classics and Archaeology, University of Edinburgh, William Robertson Wing Old Medical School, 4 Teviot Pl, Edinburgh EH8 9AG, UK; [email protected] Received: 31 August 2020; Accepted: 10 October 2020; Published: 26 October 2020 Abstract: Cultural objects are thought to have a lifespan. From selection, through construction, use, destruction, and discard, materials do not normally last forever, transforming through stages of life, eventually leading to their death. The materiality of stone objects, however, can defy the inevitable demise of an object, especially durable ground stone tools that can outlive generations of human lifespans. How groups of people deal with the relative permanence of stone tools depends on their own relationship with the past, and whether they venerate it or reject its influence on the present. A case study from the long-lived site of Prasteio-Mesorotsos in Cyprus demonstrates a shifting attitude toward ground stone objects, from the socially conservative habit of ritually killing of objects and burying them, to one of more casual re-use and reinterpretation of ground stone. This shift in attitude coincides with a socio-political change that eventually led to the ultimate rejection of the past: complete abandonment of the settlement. Keywords: Cyprus; prehistory; ground stone; materiality; social conservatism 1. Introduction We have learned from Leroi-Gourhan [1], Lemmonier [2], and others [3] that objects have lifespans, but what about objects whose material qualities make them immortal? While stone tools certainly undergo transformations in the stages of chaîne opératoire, they are extremely durable.

  • Art As Social Practice: Transforming Lives Using Sculpture in HIV/AIDS
    cultural geographies 18(3) 275–296 Art as social practice: transforming © The Author(s) 2010 Reprints and permission: sagepub. co.uk/journalsPermissions.nav lives using sculpture in HIV/AIDS DOI: 10.1177/1474474010377548 awareness and prevention in Uganda http://cgj.sagepub.com Lilian Nabulime Makerere University, Uganda Cheryl McEwan Geography Department, Durham University Abstract This article explores the possibilities of art as social practice in the context of the fight against HIV/AIDS. It is inspired by notions of art having the capacity to move beyond the spaces of galleries into an expanded field, and thus beyond the visual and into the social. The article examines the potential for sculpture to play a transformative role in HIV/AIDS awareness and prevention, and in transforming the gender relations that shape the dynamics of the spread of the disease. These ideas are developed through discussion of research conducted in Uganda and in the UK, which sought to develop forms of sculptural practice for HIV/AIDS awareness and prevention in Uganda. The article explores the ways in which a series of soap sculptures are an effective tool in the fight against the disease, particularly in communities with high rates of illiteracy and in which discussion of sex and sexuality remains largely taboo. The article contends that countering taboo and facilitating dialogue between women and men, thus encouraging attitudinal and behavioural change, are perhaps the most significant impacts that this form of sculpture can make. This is because while awareness of the disease in Uganda is often high, having the capacity to discuss and act upon this awareness is often problematic, largely because of fear, stigma and taboo, and the unequal gender relations that determine the nature of men and women’s sexual lives.

  • At the Sign of the Mortar and Pestle Alyssa Pelish
    52 AT THE SIGN of THE MORtaR AND Pestle Alyssa Pelish at the edge of the Walgreens parking lot. It was a nice, wide, bell-shaped mortar, its pestle at the reli- ably jaunty angle one expects. The red script of the Walgreens W looped possessively across the mortar—but it was the sign of the mortar and pestle, nonetheless. And this sign, as it happens—an over- sized depiction of a mortar and pestle that indicates a place where medicines are sold—is very old. The sign of the mortar and pestle, in fact, is nearly all that remains of an iconography of shop signs that crowded the streets of Europe from the late Middle Ages into the first decades of the nineteenth century. Only two other such symbols are still hung out: the barber’s pole and the sign of the three gold balls you’ll see on pawnshops. But imagine for a second what those streets must have looked like: The sign of the ax. The sign of the last. The sign of three shuttles. Signs like these were place names and professional emblems. The sign of the three cups. The sign of the shears. They were enduring landmarks and advertisements. Sons inherited signs A Walgreens pretending to be a compounding from fathers, and former apprentices incorporated pharmacy. the devices on their masters’ signs into those above their own shops. The sign of the hautboy. The sign of During a prolonged stay some years ago in the rural the sword and buckler.

  • Cryogrinder™ User's Guide
    CryoGrinder™ User’s Guide Quick Start The following is a list of key points for using the CryoGrinder™ safely and effectively. Liquid nitrogen is needed to cool the CryoGrinder™ mortar and pestle, and to pre-chill the sample to cryogenic temperatures. CAUTION: Liquid nitrogen is -196°C and can cause burns. Wear safety gloves, safety glasses, and a laboratory coat when handling liquid nitrogen. Review organizational safety procedures for using liquid nitrogen. Grinding the pestle against the mortar without a sample causes accelerated wear to the CryoGrinder™. The dust generated from this “dry grinding” is a respiratory hazard. DO NOT DRY GRIND. Always grind with a sample in the mortar. The porcelain/zirconium mortar and pestle are resistant to abrasion, but can be cracked by impact. Avoid dropping or impacting the mortar and pestle. Samples of 100 mg or less are more effectively ground than larger samples. For larger samples, it may be necessary to mix the sample with the tip of a pointed spatula (chilled first) several times during the grinding. To transfer the ground sample to a tube (e.g., 15 ml centrifuge tube), ensure that the powdered sample is not compacted in the bottom of the mortar (loosen with a chilled spatula if necessary), invert the tube and place over the opening in the mortar, invert tube and mortar together, and tap the powdered sample into the tube. Decontaminate the mortar and pestle following processing by autoclaving. Once clean, the mortar and pestle can be further decontaminated with dry heat at 200°C for 2 hours or by rinsing with decontamination solution.
