Contact Information Reference Department Archives of American Art Smithsonian Institution Washington. D.C. 20560 www.aaa.si.edu/askus Transcript Preface The following oral history transcript is the result of a tape-recorded interview with Frederick Sweet on February 13 & 14, 1976. The interview took place in Sargentville, Maine, and was conducted by Robert Brown for the Archives of American Art, Smithsonian Institution. Interview February 13, 1976. ROBERT BROWN: Could you begin, perhaps, by just sketching out a bit of your childhood, and we can pick up from there. FREDERICK SWEET: I spent most of my early childhood in this house. My father, a doctor and tenth generation Rhode Islander, went out to Bisbee, Arizona, a wild-west copper-mining town, as the chief surgeon under the aegis of the Company. My mother always came East at pregnancy and was in New York visiting relatives when my father died very suddenly of cerebral hemorrhage. My mother was seven months pregnant with me. Since I was to be a summer baby, she ended up by coming to this house and being a cook and being a cook and a nurse with her there. The local doctor came and said nothing was going to happen for quite a long time and went off in his horse and buggy. I was promptly delivered by the cook and a nurse.

Ivan Albright’s Ida and the “Object Congealed around a Soul” Elizabeth Lee For some time now I haven’t painted pictures, per se. I make statements, ask questions, search for principles. The paint and brushes are but mere extensions of myself or scalpels if you wish. —Ivan Albright1 From the start of his career in the late 1920s, the Chicago-born painter Ivan Albright was praised by critics for his precise, meticulous forms and yet also reviled for his off- putting approach to the human figure. The Lineman(fig. 1), for example, which won the John C. Shaffer Prize for portraiture at the Art Institute of Chicago in 1928, sparked concern when it appeared on the cover of the trade magazine Electric Light and Power. A. B. Gates, a manager from the Edison Company, protested the lineman’s appearance as a “stoop-shouldered individual exuding an atmosphere of hopelessness and dejection,” explaining that the image failed to capture the strong, youthful stature of the typical modern American workman.2 Subsequent paintings from this period were not merely offensive; they were utterly revolting, as the artist approached his subjects with increasingly clinical detail.

The artist painted the young wife and mother— “a very decent girl,” claimed Albright— throughout the next two (American, 1897–1983) years, metamorphosing her on canvas into the stereotype of a piteous older woman we see in this early masterpiece of 1929–1930. Her puckered, drooping flesh squeezed into tawdry clothing sizes too small, the doleful woman sits alone at her dressing table, surrounded by a collection of objects as wasted and worn as she is. She gazes at a mirror held at such Into the World There an angle that it could reflect either her sorrowful image or the empty void behind her. As if the powder puff could ward off Came a Soul Called Ida, the ravages of time, she dabs at her gray, sagging flesh in vain. To render this haunting portrait of aging and decay, Albright 1929–1930 used lurid, dark colors, illuminated by a harsh, raking light that accentuates each blemish, each stray hair.

To be placed on the Museum’s email list, write to [email protected]. ARTISTS WHO HAD CANCER DIRECTOR’S NOTES The Hillstrom Museum of Art is pleased to present Artists Who Had Cancer: Works from the Hillstrom and Shogren- Meyer Collections. The exhibit and a concurrent one titled Cancer Never Had Me: Views by Artists are presented in conjunction with the 2020 Nobel Conference of Gustavus Adolphus College, titled “Cancer in the Age of Biotechnology.” The commonality of the 32 works included in Artists Who Had Cancer, beyond their being by prominent American artists and dating mostly from the first half of the 20th century, is that they are all by artists who succumbed to cancer. For some of the 16 individual painters, printmakers, and photographers, published biographical information indicates the specific type of cancer the artist had. For those artists, some discussion of their careers, their type of cancer, and, when possible, the impact the disease had on their lives and work, is presented.

Ivan Albright, with contributions by Susan S. Weininger and Robert Cozzolino, edited by Susan R. Rossen with foreword by James N. Wood, The Art Institute of Chicago, Hudson Hills Press, New York, 1997, pg. 120, pl. 32, Illustrated. Note “The spectacular frame dates from the nineteenth century and was decorated with silver paint and embellished with bits of mirror by the artist. Most of Albright’s works retain their original frames, many of which he refurbished and embellished, custom designed, and/or carved himself.” - Excerpt from above, pg. 120 Essay The paintings of Ivan Albright are among the most thematically elusive and aesthetically haunting of 1930s and 40s America. The decade prior had largely been colored by the Precisionists who, influenced by the work of the French Purists, tempered the Cubism of the early 1910s to reflect or disparage the gains of urban capitalism. The late 1940s and 50s saw the advent of pure abstraction propelled by a cadre of “action painters” who, at the onset of the existential, nuclear age, communicated an internal ethos rather than the external world.
