In California, through the troubling decades of the Great Depression and the Second World War, German- born Scheyer (1889–1945) single-handedly cultivated a taste for their brand of European modernism by arranging exhibitions, lectures and publications on their work, and negotiating sales on their behalf. Maven of Modernism presents exceptional examples from Scheyer’s personal collection by the Blue Four artists, as well as works by artists including Alexander Archipenko, László Moholy-Nagy, Pablo Picasso Head in Profile, 1919 Emil Nolde (German, 1867-1956) and Diego Rivera, which was given to the Pasadena Art Institute in the Watercolor and India ink on tan wove paper 14-1/2 x 11-1/8 in.

Dormant Foreign Affairs Preemption and Von Saher v. Norton Simon Museum: Complicating the "Just and Fair Solution" to Holocaust-Era Art Claims Mikka Gee Conwayt Introduction In Von Saher v. Norton Simon Museum,' the Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit struck down a California law extending the statute of limitations for Holocaust-era art restitution claims against museums. 2 It affirmed the district court's holding that the statute was preempted by the federal foreign relations power, reversed the determination that the claim was time-barred under the regular California statute of limitations for stolen property, and remanded the case.3 The decision prolongs a dispute between the sole heir of a prominent Jewish art dealer in Amsterdam whose collection was seized by Nazi agents in 1940, and the California museum that later purchased two paintings from that collection. 4 Von Saher seems to be a straightforward application of a line of Ninth Circuit and Supreme Court precedent preempting state action that intrudes on the federal province of foreign relations.5 But, viewed in light of this precedent and its particular facts, Von Saher is a flawed decision that highlights problems with the rarely invoked and constitutionally infirm doctrine of dormant foreign affairs t. -

Munaf v. Geren, 553 U.S. 674, 689, 702 (2008) (quoting Romero v. International Terminal Operating Co., 358 U.S. 354, 383 (1959)). This case involves an action brought under California law to recover paintings that were forcibly purchased by the Nazis in the Netherlands during World War II, recovered by U.S. forces, and returned to the Dutch government under the United States’ external restitution policy. In 2011, the Solicitor General filed an amicus brief in this case—joined by the State Department Legal Advisor—stating the Executive’s views on U.S. foreign policy concerning claims to Nazi-looted artworks recovered by U.S. -
(Roy Halston Frowick) (1932-1990) by Shaun Cole
Halston (Roy Halston Frowick) (1932-1990) by Shaun Cole Encyclopedia Copyright © 2015, glbtq, Inc. Entry Copyright © 2002, glbtq, Inc. Reprinted from http://www.glbtq.com The first international fashion superstar, Halston was a master of cut, detail, and finish. He dressed and befriended some of America's most glamorous women. Jackie Kennedy Onassis, Elizabeth Taylor, Babe Paley, Barbara Walters, Lauren Bacall, Bianca Jagger, and Liza Minnelli were just some of the women who wore Halston. Roy Halston Frowick was born on April 23, 1932 in Des Moines, Iowa, the second son of a Norwegian- American accountant with a passion for inventing. Roy developed an interest in sewing from his mother. As an adolescent he began creating hats and embellishing outfits for his mother and sister. Roy graduated from high school in 1950 then attended Indiana University for one semester. After the family moved to Chicago in 1952, he enrolled in a night course at the Chicago Art Institute and worked as a window dresser. Frowick's first big break came when the Chicago Daily News ran a brief story on his fashionable hats. In 1957 he opened his first shop, the Boulevard Salon, on Michigan Avenue. It was at this point that he began to use his middle name as his professional moniker. With the help of a lover twenty-five years his senior, celebrity hair stylist André Basil, Halston further developed his career by moving to New York later in 1957. Basil introduced Halston to milliner Lilly Daché, who offered him a job. Within a year he had been named co-designer at Daché, become the new best friend of several fashion editors and publishers, and left Daché's studio to become head milliner for department store Bergdorf Goodman. -

Norton Simon Museum Marks the 500Th Anniversary of Raphael's
December 2019 Media Contacts: Leslie Denk | [email protected] | (626) 844-6941 Emma Jacobson-Sive | [email protected]| (323) 842-2064 Norton Simon Museum Marks the 500th Anniversary of Raphael’s Death with a Spotlight on Madonna and Child with Book A special installation and program series highlight this important artwork Pasadena, CA— Few artists have been as widely admired as Raphael (April 6, 1483–April 6, 1520), whose innovations in fresco decoration, altarpieces, portraits and devotional paintings represent the zenith of Italian art in the 16th century. His work influenced generations of artists, including Guido Reni and Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres. This winter and spring, the Norton Simon Museum joins institutions around the world in observing the 500th anniversary of the artist’s death. A special display and a series of programs focus on the artist’s Madonna and Child with Book, from around 1502–3. One of the treasures of the Museum’s early Renaissance galleries, Madonna and Child with Book also has the distinction of being the only painting by Raphael in a public collection west of the Mississippi. Madonna and Child with Book, c. 1502–3, Raphael (Raffaello Sanzio) (Italian, 1483–1520), oil on panel, The Museum celebrates “Raphael 2020” from January 15 21-3/4 x 15-3/4 in.
