  • 16 Textiles in Defence* Richard a Scott Defence Clothing and Textiles Agency, Science and Technology Division, Flagstaff Road, Colchester, Essex CO2 7SS, UK
    16 Textiles in defence* Richard A Scott Defence Clothing and Textiles Agency, Science and Technology Division, Flagstaff Road, Colchester, Essex CO2 7SS, UK 16.1 Introduction To be prepared for War is one of the most effectual means of preserving Peace (George Washington, 1790)1 Defence forces on land, sea, or air throughout the world are heavily reliant on tech- nical textiles of all types – whether woven, knitted, nonwoven, coated, laminated, or other composite forms. Technical textiles offer invaluable properties for military land forces in particular, who are required to move, live, survive and fight in hostile environments. They have to carry or wear all the necessities for comfort and sur- vival and thus need the most lightweight, compact, durable, and high performance personal clothing and equipment. The life-critical requirements for protecting indi- viduals from both environmental and battlefield threats have ensured that the major nations of the world expend significant resources in developing and providing the most advanced technical textiles for military use. 16.2 Historical background Military textile science is not new, and one of the earliest documented studies can probably be credited to Count Rumford, or Benjamin Thompson. Rumford was an American army colonel and scientist who issued a paper in 1792 entitled ‘Philo- sophical Transactions’, which reported on the importance of internally trapped air in a range of textile fabrics to the thermal insulation provided by those fabrics.2 He was awarded the Copley Medal for his paper, as the significance of his discovery was recognised immediately. * Copyright MOD (1997) DCTA, Colchester, Essex CO2 7SS 426 Handbook of technical textiles 16.2.1 Pre-Twentieth century Up until the end of the 19th century military land battles were fought at close quar- ters by individual engagements.

  • Art in America the EPIC BANAL
    Art in America THE EPIC BANAL BY: Amy Sherald, Tyler Mitchell May 7, 2021 10:08am Tyler Mitchell: Untitled (Blue Laundry Line), 2019. Amy Sherald (https://www.artnews.com/t/amy-sherald/): A Midsummer Afternoon Dream, 2020, oil on canvas, 106 by 101 inches. Tyler Mitchell and Amy Sherald—two Atlanta-born, New York–based artists—both capture everyday joy in their images of Black Americans. Recurring motifs in Mitchell’s photographs, installations, and videos include outdoor space and fashionable friends. Sherald, a painter, shares similar motifs: her colorful paintings with pastel palettes show Black people enjoying American moments, their skin painted in grayscale, the backgrounds and outfits flat. Both are best known for high-profile portrait commissions: in 2018 Mitchell became the first Black photographer to have a work grace the cover of Vogue. That shot of Beyoncé was followed, more recently, by a portrait of Kamala Harris for the same publication. Michelle Obama commissioned Amy Sherald to paint her portrait, and last year Vanity Fair asked Sherald to paint Breonna Taylor for a cover too. Below, the artists discuss the influence of the South on their work, and how they navigate art versus commercial projects. —Eds. Amy Sherald: Precious jewels by the sea, 2019, oil on canvas, 120 by 108 inches. TYLER MITCHELL: Amy, we spoke before about finding freedom and making your own moments of joy. I think of Precious jewels by the sea [2019]—your painting of two couples at the beach, showing the men standing with the women on their shoulders—as a moment that you constructed.

    | Issue No. 11 | Everyone Shares In | 2 Sunbrella® 50th Anniversary Sunbrella®is a fabric for all Issue No. 11 times, and all lifestyles, from a pool-side cabana in the early 1960s to casual, yet elegant Fall 2010 décor inside the home today. Everyone Shares In Sunbrella 50th Anniversary Pages 2-3 Dear Readers, We hope and trust that this issue of the Raven magazine finds you with optimism and confidence for the future. Inside you will read about one of the most important reasons for our positive outlook – the 50th anniversary of the Sunbrella® brand, which will occur during 2011 and which we will begin to celebrate later this year. It was in 1961 that Glen Raven’s Roger Gant, Jr. and his team launched Sunbrella brand fabrics, which forever changed awning, marine and furniture markets. As we plan for the 50th anniversary of the Sunbrella brand, it is with a sense of sadness and loss over the death of Roger Gant, Jr. on July 26. Roger was the visionary who saw the potential for awning fabrics made with synthetic fibers and who pioneered our brand through its launch and early years of market acceptance. 2-3 We owe Roger a great debt of gratitude and are pleased to include a profile article in this issue. Countless companies have benefitted from the Sunbrella brand over the past 50 years, one of the newest of which is Coast New Zealand, which specializes in casual furniture and luggage. The 4-5 owners of Coast selected the Sunbrella brand from the very beginning because of its reputation for durability and easy care, an ideal complement to Coast products targeted to outdoor lifestyles.
