The complex of buildings in Central Park is the property of the City, and the City provides for the Museum’s heat, light, and power. The City also pays for approximately one- third the costs of maintenance and security for the facility and its collections. The collections themselves are held in trust by the Trustees. The Trustees, in turn, are responsible for meeting all expenses connected with conservation, education, special exhibitions, acquisitions, scholarly publications, and related activities, including security costs not covered by the City. To the State: The State of New York again provided valuable support through the New York State Council on the Arts. To the Federal Government: Continued funding from the Institute of Museum and Library Services and the National Endowment of the Arts. Aid from these sources, combined

    LÉVY GORVY PRESENTS EXHIBITION FEATURING SIGMAR POLKE, ROY LICHTENSTEIN, AND GERALD LAING AND THEIR USE OF THE BEN-DAY DOT First exhibition to explore the greater transatlantic impact of the Ben-Day dot, focusing on the practice of Pop Art icons in Germany, the United States, and the United Kingdom Source and Stimulus: Polke, Lichtenstein, Laing 6 March – 21 April 2018 Opening Reception: 5 March 2018, 6–8pm 22 Old Bond Street, London, W1S 4PY London, UK, January 2018— In the late 19th century, the American illustrator and publisher Benjamin Day developed a cost-effective printing technique that used dots in different densities to reproduce images on a mass scale. This process, named after its inventor, matured over the next century and was utilised to print newspapers, advertisements, and pulp comic books in the 1950s and 60s. Sigmar Polke (Germany, 1941–2010), Roy Lichtenstein (United States, 1923–1997), and Gerald Laing (United Kingdom, 1936–2011)— along with the rest of the world—devoured this imagery daily, and chose to reconfigure it in their works. Sigmar Polke, Freundinnen (Girlfriends), 1965/1966, Dispersion paint on canvas, 59 × 74 3⁄4 inches (150 × 190 cm). Froehlich Collection, Stuttgart, © Estate of Sigmar Polke / Artists Rights Society (ARS), New York / VG Bild-Kunst, Bonn, Germany Opening 6 March at Lévy Gorvy’s London location, Source and Stimulus: Polke, Lichtenstein, Laing is an exhibition devoted to the Ben-Day dot. Featuring exceptional works by the trio of legendary artists, this is the first exhibition to connect them on the basis of their manipulation of the dot, transforming imagery from the commercial sphere into fine art.

  • PICASSO Les Livres D’Artiste E T Tis R a D’ S Vre Li S Le PICASSO
    PICASSO LES LIVRES d’ARTISTE The collection of Mr. A*** collection ofThe Mr. d’artiste livres Les PICASSO PICASSO Les livres d’artiste The collection of Mr. A*** Author’s note Years ago, at the University of Washington, I had the opportunity to teach a class on the ”Late Picasso.” For a specialist in nineteenth-century art, this was a particularly exciting and daunting opportunity, and one that would prove formative to my thinking about art’s history. Picasso does not allow for temporalization the way many other artists do: his late works harken back to old masterpieces just as his early works are themselves masterpieces before their time, and the many years of his long career comprise a host of “periods” overlapping and quoting one another in a form of historico-cubist play that is particularly Picassian itself. Picasso’s ability to engage the art-historical canon in new and complex ways was in no small part influenced by his collaborative projects. It is thus with great joy that I return to the varied treasures that constitute the artist’s immense creative output, this time from the perspective of his livres d’artiste, works singularly able to point up his transcendence across time, media, and culture. It is a joy and a privilege to be able to work with such an incredible collection, and I am very grateful to Mr. A***, and to Umberto Pregliasco and Filippo Rotundo for the opportunity to contribute to this fascinating project. The writing of this catalogue is indebted to the work of Sebastian Goeppert, Herma Goeppert-Frank, and Patrick Cramer, whose Pablo Picasso.

Our underlying goals are to foster science literacy and arts education through structured activities that are engaging and challenging and by which kids—and the adults who mentor them—learn while having fun. INTRODUCTION . Philosophy behind the FRA Badge Program & Suggestions on Using It I’ve developed this manual so as to enable the American Federation of Mineralogical Societies to sponsor a youth program via Future Rockhounds of America, a program that rewards kids on an on-going basis as a means of encouraging and cultivating their interest in the earth sciences and lapidary arts. Through this, each of our individual clubs and societies will uphold our chartered goals as nonprofit, educational organizations by actively seeking to foster and develop science literacy and arts education amongst our youngest members. My guiding philosophy has three underpinnings. They come from both my own values as a person invested in the positive development of young people and from a wealth of academic research indicating that if one wants to design and deliver programs that effectively promote positive development among young people, three steps are crucial to enact.
