Smith, and Rev. Dr. Mark K. Tyler in Opposition to the Condemnation of James Dupree’s Art Studio Dear Mayor and City Council: We write to urge this body not to proceed with the condemnation of James Dupree’s art studio at 3617 Haverford Avenue. Mr. Dupree’s case is straightforward: The city of Philadelphia is abusing its power of eminent domain. The city wants to bulldoze Mr. Dupree’s 8,600-square-foot property and replace it with a grocery store and parking lot. Eminent domain is supposed to be used for “public use,” such as for roads and schools. A grocery store is not a public use. Additionally, the unreasonable valuation is not “just compensation,” which is another constitutional requirement, and thus is a denial of due process. Seizing James Dupree’s art studio is not only unconstitutional and a gross abuse of eminent domain, it is unconscionable. Dupree, a native son of Philadelphia, is one of the city’s most highly regarded artists. Five of his paintings are housed at the Philadelphia Museum of Art and numerous pieces of his are displayed throughout the city. Mr. Dupree turned a broken-down warehouse and garage into a unique art space where he works and has hosted art classes. He would like to start a mentorship program in Mantua so that inner-city kids can learn to appreciate art.

Of course, that was the aim of his magisterial scholarly work, and while unquestionably impressive, his tome turned out to be by no means the last word on the topic. Indeed over the intervening quarter century, quite to the contrary, we witnessed a continuously increasing outpouring of specialized political science, historical, philosophical, psychological, and other disciplinary studies with clearly ―no school of leadership‖with a single unifying theory emerging.

In Alaska we literally share a back yard with bears (yes, grizzly bears, the big brown ones) and I witnessed them fishing for spawning salmon, greedily mowing down bushes of blueberries and eating sedge grass. But that was nature … not our country. The events of the last few weeks have been horrifying to watch and hear.

Like a snapshot it captures a moment in time, one that tells a compelling story that is rich in detail and resonates with meaning about the subject it represents. With this analogy in mind, we hope that as you read this account of our operations during fiscal year 2012 you will not only appreciate all that has been accomplished at the Philadelphia Museum of Art, but also see how this work has served to fulfill the mission of this institution through the continued development and care of our collection, the presentation of a broad range of exhibitions and programs, and the strengthening of our relationship to the com- munity through education and outreach. In this regard, continuity is vitally important. In other words, what the Museum was founded to do in 1876 is as essential today as it was then. Fostering the understanding and appreciation of the work of great artists and nurturing the spirit of creativity in all of us are enduring values without which we, individually and collectively, would be greatly diminished. If continuity—the responsibility for sustaining the things that we value most—is impor- tant, then so, too, is a commitment to change.

Batey: Reflections on the Needle: Poe, Baze, Dead Man Walking REFLECTIONS ON THE NEEDLE: POE, BAZE, DEAD MAN WALKING Robert Batey* The goal of most of the “Law and . .” movements is to bring the perspective of the humanities to legal issues. Literature and film, for examples, can cause one to envision such issues afresh. Sometimes this viewing from a new angle is premeditated, but sometimes it sneaks up on you. During a recent fall semester my colleague, Kristen Adams, asked that I speak to Stetson’s Honors Colloquium1 on a law and literature topic.2 The only date we could work out was Halloween, and so Professor Adams and I laughingly agreed that Edgar Allan Poe would be an appropriate choice. Dipping into Poe’s stories (all of which seem to be online), I immediately sensed their resonance with the law of capital punishment, another of my academic interests.3 The Fall of the House of Usher seemed filled with images of the death house.
