Pursuing its historic mission, MassArt provides broad access to a high quality professional arts education accompanied by a strong general education in the liberal arts. MassArt enjoys a national and international reputation for the excellence of its 263 member faculty, studio-based curriculum, and facilities, all in service of the college’s mission to prepare students to participate in the creative economy as artists, architects, art historians, designers and art educators who contribute to the well being of society. MassArt’s founders dared to imagine a better future for the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and believed the path to it lay in creativity, innovation and the practical application of art and design skills. Their goal in establishing the Massachusetts Normal School, opened in 1873, was to produce drawing teachers, then required in schools throughout the Commonwealth, while at the same time training professional artists, designers and architects. True to its history, MassArt continues to envision expanded public educational opportunities with the development of advanced and professional degrees. MassArt is part of the Massachusetts public higher education system and is governed by Massachusetts General laws. In addition, the Massachusetts Department of Higher Education (DHE) has broad academic, fiscal and human resources policy and planning responsibility for the state’s public higher education systems. The college has its own eleven member board of trustees, nine of whom are appointed by the governor, one is an elected alumnus and the other an elected student representative. The college and the legislature implemented a new funding model for public higher education in 2004—an annual state appropriation, tuition retention and the authority to establish enrollment targets and tuition rates for in-state and non-resident students. This partnership has provided MassArt with the ability to set a bold new visionary campus master plan and capital campaign for the next decade. The American Council on Education praised the new model, noting that MassArt is one of the few public colleges creatively responding to the future challenges of funding public higher education in the United States. In 2007 Governor Deval Patrick signed into law an act officially changing the college’s name from Massachusetts College of Art to Massachusetts College of Art and Design. The addition of “Design” to the college’s formal title reflects more accurately its full range of programs and considerable impact on the region’s creative industries. In 2010 the governor signed a bill creating a state university system from the nine state colleges thus joining 45 other states in the US that already have made the transition to a state university system. MassArt, though now a university, retains its existing name. In 2011 Dawn Barrett was named MassArt’s eleventh president. She was inaugurated on October 18th, 2012 in a day of pageantry and celebration that highlighted the legacy of the school. The ceremony brought greetings from the governor, the mayor of Boston, local congressmen, as well as presidents from the local arts and design schools including Ted Landsmark from the Boston Architectural Center. As the former Dean of Architecture and Design Division of the Rhode Island School of Design and Assistant Professor of Graphic Design at RISD, President Barrett brings deep experience in architectural education and a commitment to the professional development of scholars and practitioners of design. President Barrett is a member of the National Association of Art and Design Commission on Accreditation (NASAD), a visiting evaluator for the American Landscape Association Accreditation Board (LAAB), and trustee of the Penland School of Crafts (2009-2012). Her contributions to the fields of design and education herald a renewed and increased commitment to the architecture program and a recognition of the significance of accreditation and the development of graduate studies on campus. 4 ARCHITECTURE PROGRAM REPORT 2013 PART I MassArt’s institutional accreditation status is granted by two bodies: the National Association of Schools of Art and Design (NASAD) and the New England Association of Schools and Colleges (NEASC). MassArt’s next accreditation visit, a joint visit will be requested, is scheduled for 2015-2016. MassArt’s faculty and staff, with the exception of non-unit employees, are all members of one of four statewide unions represented on campus: Massachusetts State College Association (MSCA) for salaried and adjunct faculty and librarians teaching in the college’s day program; Division of Graduate and Continuing Education (DGCE) for adjunct faculty teaching in the areas of graduate and continuing education; Association of Professional Staff (APA); and the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees (AFSCME). The college offers 1,769 undergraduates the BFA in 21 disciplines: animation; architectural design; art education (four tracks); art history; ceramics; fashion design; fibers; film/video; glass; graphic design; illustration; industrial design; studio for interrelated media (SIM); metals; painting; photography; printmaking; and sculpture. Graduate students number 147 and matriculate in degree programs leading to the Master of Fine Arts, Master of Architecture, Master of Arts in Teaching and Master of Science in Art Education and approximately 510 students in certificate programs and classes in professional and continuing education. The college offers an array of public programs, including exhibitions, lectures and events, professional

  • The Nature of Hellenistic Domestic Sculpture in Its Cultural and Spatial Contexts
    THE NATURE OF HELLENISTIC DOMESTIC SCULPTURE IN ITS CULTURAL AND SPATIAL CONTEXTS DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for The Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Craig I. Hardiman, B.Comm., B.A., M.A. ***** The Ohio State University 2005 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Dr. Mark D. Fullerton, Advisor Dr. Timothy J. McNiven _______________________________ Advisor Dr. Stephen V. Tracy Graduate Program in the History of Art Copyright by Craig I. Hardiman 2005 ABSTRACT This dissertation marks the first synthetic and contextual analysis of domestic sculpture for the whole of the Hellenistic period (323 BCE – 31 BCE). Prior to this study, Hellenistic domestic sculpture had been examined from a broadly literary perspective or had been the focus of smaller regional or site-specific studies. Rather than taking any one approach, this dissertation examines both the literary testimonia and the material record in order to develop as full a picture as possible for the location, function and meaning(s) of these pieces. The study begins with a reconsideration of the literary evidence. The testimonia deal chiefly with the residences of the Hellenistic kings and their conspicuous displays of wealth in the most public rooms in the home, namely courtyards and dining rooms. Following this, the material evidence from the Greek mainland and Asia Minor is considered. The general evidence supports the literary testimonia’s location for these sculptures. In addition, several individual examples offer insights into the sophistication of domestic decorative programs among the Greeks, something usually associated with the Romans.

Vice Provost for Graduate and Professional Education ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Every Massachusetts schoolchild walks Boston’s Freedom Trail and learns the story of the Hancock house. Its demolition served as a rallying cry for early preservationists and students of historic preservation study its importance. Having been both a Massachusetts schoolchild and student of historic preservation, this project has inspired and challenged me for the past nine months. To begin, I must thank those who came before me who studied the objects and legacy of the Hancock house. I am greatly indebted to the research efforts of Henry Ayling Phillips (1852- 1926) and Harriette Merrifield Forbes (1856-1951). Their research notes, at the American Antiquarian Society in Worcester, Massachusetts served as the launching point for this project. This thesis would not have been possible without the assistance and guidance of my thesis adviser, Brock Jobe.

While the most advai peed technological meant to photograph and reproduce this document have been useJ the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The followini explanation o f techniques is provided to help you understand markings or pattei“ims which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or “ target" for pages apparently lacking from die document phoiographed is “Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This| may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. Wheji an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is ar indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have mo1vad during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. Wheh a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in 'sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to righj in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again - beginning below the first row and continuing on until com alete. 4.

This is a modest one-nave building with an entrance on the west and the apse on the east side. In order to explain a large deviation of the longitudinal axis of the church from the south- east direction, the following has been done: 1) deviation of the longitudinal axis of the church from the east direction (24o to the NE) was accurately measured; 2) a corresponding sector of true horizon of the church was constructed in the orthographic transverse map projection; 3) the position of the point where ends the line of observation in the vertical axis of the church and the position of the point of actual Sunrise of Summer Solstice were determined topographically on the true horizon. Since the distance between these points is about 1.5o, it can be said that the proto- master probably founded the Church St Nicholas on the basis of Summer Solstice. A direct check made on 21st of June, 2011 confirmed the accuracy of the applied method. Key words: mathematical geography, archeoastronomy, church orientation, the St Nicholas’ church, the Studenica monastery Introduction In the Serbian monastery Studenica, thirty meters southeast of the Virgin Church (Fig.

  • Re-Membering Norridgewock Stories and Politics of a Place Multiple
    RE-MEMBERING NORRIDGEWOCK STORIES AND POLITICS OF A PLACE MULTIPLE A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Ashley Elizabeth Smith December 2017 © 2017 Ashley Elizabeth Smith RE-MEMBERING NORRIDGEWOCK STORIES AND POLITICS OF A PLACE MULTIPLE Ashley Elizabeth Smith, Ph. D. Cornell University 2017 This dissertation is an ethnography of place-making at Norridgewock, the site of a famous Wabanaki village in western Maine that was destroyed by a British militia in 1724. I examine how this site is variously enacted as a place of Wabanaki survivance and erasure and ask, how is it that a particular place with a particular history can be mobilized in different and even contradictory ways? I apply Annemarie Mol’s (2002) analytic concept of the body multiple to place to examine how utilize practices of storytelling, remembering, gathering, producing knowledge, and negotiating relationships to variously enact Norridgewock as a place multiple. I consider the multiple, overlapping, coexistent, and contradictory enactments of place and engagements with knowledge that shape place-worlds in settler colonial nation-states. Rather than taking these different enactments of place to be different perspectives on or versions of place, I examine how these enactments are embedded in and shaped by hierarchies of power and politics that produce enactments of place that are at times parallel and at times contradictory. Place-making is especially political in the context of settler colonialism, where indigenous places, histories, and peoples are erased in order to be replaced (Wolfe 2006; O’Brien 2010).

  • Bibliography of American Newspapers, 1690-1820
    128 American Antiquarian Society. [April, BIBLIOGRAPHY OF AMERICAN NEWSPAPERS, 1690-1820 PART III ' MARYLAND TO MASSACHUSETTS (BOSTON) COMPILED BY CLARENCE S. BRIGHAM The following bibliography attempts, first, to present a historical sketch of every newspaper printed in the United States from 1690 to 1820; secondly, to locate all files found in the various libraries of the country; and thirdly, to give a complete check list of the issues in the library of the American Antiquarian Society. The historical sketch of each paper gives the title, the date of establishment, the name of the editor or publisher, the fre- quency of issue and the date of discontinuance. It also attempts to give the exact date of issue when a change in title or name of publisher or frequency of publication occurs. In locating the files to be found in various libraries, no at- tempt is made to list every issue. In the case of common news- papers which are to be found in many libraries, only the longer files are noted, with a description of their completeness. Rare newspapers, which are known by only a few scattered issues, are minutely listed. The check list of the issues in the library of the American Antiquarian Society follows the style of the Library of Con- gress "Check List of Eighteenth Century Newspapers," and records all supplements, missing issues and mutilations. The arrangement is alphabetical by states and towns. Towns are placed according to their present State location. For convenience of alphabetization, the initial "The" in the titles of papers is disregarded. Papers are considered to be of folio size, unless otherwise stated.
