Find out what inspires them, the breakthroughs that have taken them to the next level, and why you should add their work to your collection now. —— — BY KELLY KANE —— — Nancy Takaichi Robin Weiss Alex Venezia Mary Giammarino Peter Bain Rebecca Arguello Michele Z Farrier Brandon Gonzales Palden Hamilton Amanda Lovett Todd Saal www.outdoorpainter.com / October-November 2020 61 rising stars NANCY TAKAICHI Art education: I majored in art at DePauw University in Indiana, and, atypically for the ‘70s, it was a tough academic education, thanks to Robert Kingsley. I spent a semester in New York City as an apprentice to Jack Beal (figurative) and Jane Frelicher (landscape and still life). Fast forward past a 30-year career in Silicon Valley — half of that as a technical and marketing writer and the other half as a sales conference organizer — and I returned to art in 2012. I attended a couple of Plein Air Convention & Expos in Monterey, California, which introduced me to great artists whose workshops I later pursued. To jump back into art after many years makes me feel young again. Painting style: The short answer is impressionistic, with a painterly application. Light is everything (after composition). I think one way to tell a “Takaichi” is by the soft edges. I love my filberts! Favorite subjects: Because I compose using dark and light patterns, I look for a strong light source, particularly back light.

For those of you who may have forgotten, Tom Corbett Space Cadet was a CBS TV series from the early 1950s, and a forerunner of Star Trek. The series imagined a futuristic and golden space age in which responsible, decent-minded cadets like Tom patrolled the universe in rocketships such as the Polaris. Before you dash to the attic in hopes of finding one of these super heroes, take a deep breath. Most Star Wars items fetch a much higher price at auction than those battling toys of the 1940s and 1950s. Perhaps it’s best to start looking in your childrens’ toy chest. Above: While Buck Rogers and Flash Gordon garnered the attention For example, a Boba Fett (1979) with rocket firing mechanism, will sell for $10,000 out of the box and in the 1950s, many were fans of the popular TV show “Tom Corbett, $45,000 in mint condition. Jawa with the vinyl cape (1978) will fetch $2,000 out of his box. A double telescoping Space Cadet”. This 3.5” x 12”, “Tom Corbett Space Cadet 2 Space Luke Skywalker (1978) is worth up to $1,000.

    Aus: Marcel Hartwig Die traumatisierte Nation? »Pearl Harbor« und »9/11« als kulturelle Erinnerungen August 2011, 256 Seiten, kart., zahlr. Abb., 29,80 €, ISBN 978-3-8376-1742-9 Die mediale Verarbeitung des 11. Septembers 2001 – so die zentrale These dieses Buchs – ist in den USA maßgeblich durch die Erinnerung an Pearl Harbor geprägt: Beide Anschläge waren auch Angriffe auf die nationale Identität. Vor dem Hintergrund kulturwissenschaftlicher Diskussionen um kulturelle, nationale oder kollektive Traumata diskutiert die amerikanistische Studie von Marcel Hartwig Ästhetik und Erzählmodi von insgesamt elf Hollywoodproduktionen zu beiden Ereig- nissen. Damit leistet sie einen ebenso instruktiven wie innovativen Beitrag zur Unter- suchung des jüngeren Nationenbildungsprozesses in den USA.
