    John Sloan's Illustrations for the Novels of Charles Paul De Kock Oct

    Drawn to SSATIREATIRE John Sloan’s Illustrations for the Novels of Charles Paul de Kock Oct. 24, 2009 –March 29, 2010 The Susan and Stephen Chandler Wing of the Virginia Steele Scott Galleries of American Art The Huntington Library, Art Collections, and Botanical Gardens ThThee MMisplacedisplaced KKISSISS REMARQUES A remarque is a small sketch made anywhere in the margins of an etching plate and originally served as a way for artists to test the sharpness of their etching needles. By the late 19th century, print dealers promoted “remarque proofs” as more valuable and ex - clusive than impressions without them. Sloan’s remarques, included on etchings found in the most deluxe editions of the de Kock novels, are often clever puns on the illustrations and enhance their meaning. The Misplaced Kiss ,1905, etching, state 2 of 3, 6 x 4 in. (also on the cover). From the novel Cherami , vol. 1. Partial and promised gift of Gary, Brenda, and Harrison Ruttenberg. The dual cause of The Misplaced Kiss —alcohol and ardor—can be found in the remarque of a blindfolded, tipsy cupid next to an overturned champagne bottle and glass. Although illustrating only a moment in the narrative, Sloan infuses the remarque with the essence of the scene. rom 1902 to 1905, American artist John Sloan F(1871–1951) created 53 etchings to illustrate novels by French author Charles Paul de Kock (1793 –1871), whose satires of early 19th-century Parisian society were popular in the United States around the turn of the century. While Sloan is best known for his gritty depictions of life in the streets, taverns, and tenements of New York City, the de Kock commission gave him the op portunity to refine his etching technique and hone his ability to convey anecdotal incidents with wry humor.

    Yeats at Petitpas' 1910/C

    National Gallery of Art NATIONAL GALLERY OF ART ONLINE EDITIONS American Paintings, 1900–1945 John Sloan American, 1871 - 1951 Yeats at Petitpas' 1910/c. 1914 oil on canvas overall: 66.2 × 81.28 cm (26 1/16 × 32 in.) framed: 80.96 × 96.36 × 6.51 cm (31 7/8 × 37 15/16 × 2 9/16 in.) Inscription: lower right: John Sloan Corcoran Collection (Museum Purchase, Gallery Fund) 2014.136.54 ENTRY In August 1910 the realist painter John Sloan began this group portrait of regulars at Petitpas’, a French restaurant and boardinghouse in the Chelsea district of Manhattan. The work joined other Ashcan school artists’ depictions of casual dining experiences in urban eateries that focused on portraiture and narrative, such as At Mouquin’s by William Glackens (American, 1870 - 1938) [fig. 1]. [1] The Ashcan school, informally led by Robert Henri (American, 1865 - 1929), generally focused on the everyday life of the working classes rather than idealized views of the city. George Luks (American, 1866 - 1933) and George Bellows (American, 1882 - 1925) completed a watercolor and a print, respectively, featuring Petitpas’ as well [fig. 2], but Sloan’s large image in oil is the most ambitious of the three. [2] The scene takes place in the enclosed backyard of the restaurant, where the dining room was located in the hot summer months. The party gathers around a table placed under an awning decorated with a French flag. [3] At the head sits John Butler Yeats, smoking and sketching. Yeats, the Irish portrait painter and father of the poet William Butler Yeats, lived at Petitpas’ from 1909 until his death in 1922.

While the Association formally dissolved in 1984, its legacy is felt strongly today in the work of its successor organizations, the Portland Art Museum and Pacific Northwest College of Art. Emerging during a period of considerable innovation in and fervent advocacy for the arts across America, the Association provided the organizational network and resources around which an energetic and diverse group of city leaders, civic reformers and philanthropists, as well as artists and art educators, coalesced.

    jan | feb | march | 2020 SANTA BARBARA MUSEUM OF ART from the director Dear Members, Happy New Year! The year 2020 is truly one for celebrating! The Museum continues to present groundbreaking exhibitions, including that of Tatsuo Miyajima. On view through April 19, this exciting installation represents the artist’s first solo U.S. museum exhibition in over two decades and the rare opportunity to experience the captivating and immersive light-based work that embodies his Buddhist practice. In addition, a selection of small-format American paintings will grace a section of Ridley-Tree Gallery in later March, highlighting the important Preston Morton Collection of American art. This installation is an impressive reminder of the breadth of the Museum’s holdings in that area and includes beautiful works by Frederic Edwin Church, Thomas Eakins, Walter Gay, and William Merritt Chase, just to name a few. The ever-popular Parallel Stories Lecture Series returns with Pulitzer Prize-winning author Jane Smiley in February and former California and U.S. Poet Laureate Juan Felipe Herrera in March. In addition, Art Matters makes a comeback this winter season with engaging lectures by eminent scholars on the artists Michelangelo and Frederick Hammersley. Finally, this year marks the beginning of the countdown to the October 11 re-opening of SBMA’s galleries, which have been closed due to the current renovation project. This will be the first time that Members and visitors will have the opportunity to experience the extraordinary transformation of the Museum, including new dedicated exhibition spaces for contemporary art, photography, and new media; a breathtaking re- installation of Ludington Court; a new grand staircase; and refined finishes and state-of-the-art lighting.
