    Hudson Rising On view March 1 – August 4, 2019 Selected PR Images The New-York Historical Society explores 200 years of ecological change, artistic inspiration, and environmental activism along the Hudson River in Hudson Rising. The exhibition features celebrated Hudson River School paintings, artifacts, and stories that evoke a journey through Hudson River landscapes and weave together 200 years of history from the industrial era to today. Much more than a body of water, the Hudson River and its environs have provided habitat for humans and hundreds of species of fish, birds, and plants; offered an escape for city-dwellers; and became a battleground between industrialists and environmental activists. Writers and artists have captured the river in paintings, drawings, literature, and photographs, and surveyors and scientists have mapped and measured every aspect of it.

  • Artists' Perspectives: Envisioning the World
    Evenings for Educators Artists’ Perspectives: Envisioning the World ALK THROUGH THE GALLERIES AT LACMA AND YOU’LL RECOGNIZE THE OBVIOUS: ARTISTS SEE the world in different ways. The lonG and colorful paintinG Mulholland Drive: The Road to the Studio (1980) is the work of Los Angeles–based artist David Hockney, Wwhose distinctive use of bright colors and bold patterns captures his view of a vibrant city. Step into another gallery and face portraits, now thousands of years old, of calm, stately people, their legs and faces in profile and their broad shoulders shown frontally. Here are the people of ancient Egypt, as represented by their artists. • What explains the distinctive ways artists see the world and its peoples? These curriculum materials consider how artists envision the world. Separate from the act of observing, envisioning calls attention to the mental act of forming an image with the mind’s eye, often after careful thought or engagement with the imagination. The definition of envision, which belongs in the group of words having to do with thought, holds nuances of meaning that reveal why artists envision the world, and the varying purposes their images serve. • What do these images communicate about an artist’s view of the world? • Can we, by example, look at our world in a new way, forming images that express a view of the world we inhabit? Envision: Form an Image of What Can’t Be Seen Over the centuries, artists have served the needs of both church and state, depicting unseen aspects of culture: values, the authority of rulers, and the stability of society.
