Paperback. Book Condition: New. 226 x 150 mm. Language: English . Brand New Book. A touching memoir that also traces the roots of Boston expressionism. For more than fiy years, Jean Gibrans life with a man named Kahlil Gibran was confusing to both friends and strangers. People either admired or despised the name. To complicate things, her husband was not the famous poet, but a sculptor. Because he was born with a caul, because both his parents were Gibrans, because his golden hands led him on aesthetic adventures, he was a curious blend of Boston and Beirut. Wherever he went, whomever he met, he had to explain his relationship to the author of The Prophet and the how and why of his Middle Eastern origins. To set things straight, he and his wife Jean published the first credible biography of his famous cousin, Kahlil Gibran: His Life and World. In Love Made Visible Jean continues with the story of a couple who, despite cultural and background dierences, enjoyed a volatile but ultimately happy marriage. The memoir traces the roots of Boston expressionisman often unrecognized movement that, for a while, made art page headlines until eclipsed by flashier abstract expressionists. Revealing a fascinating art scene, it recalls a time of WPA-supported artists and explores mid-twentieth century Provincetown when Forum 49 introduced the world to artists soon to become international treasures. Full of memories of social and cultural change in Bostons colorful South End and exploring how a widow deals with bereavement, Love Made Visible tells about surviving the burden and the blessing of sharing the name with an international figure. Jean Gibrans vignettes of inimitable characters have a life of their own. Many are long forgotten or were never known. Some, like the painter Hyman Bloom...

  • 2008 Annual Report of the National Endowment for the Humanities
    200808 ANNUAL REPORT NATIONAL ENDOWMENT FOR THE HUMANITIES CHAIRMAN’S LETTER The President The White House Washington, D.C. 20500 Dear Mr. President: It is my privilege to present to you the 2008 annual report of the National Endowment for the Humanities. At the White House in February, I joined President Bush and Mrs. Bush to launch the largest and most ambitious nationwide initiative in NEH’s history: Picturing America, the newest element of our We the People program. Through Picturing America, NEH is distributing forty reproductions of American art masterpieces to schools and public libraries nationwide—where they will help stu- dents of all ages connect with the people, places, events, and ideas that have shaped our country. The selected works of art represent a broad range of American history and artistic achieve- ment, including Emanuel Leutze’s painting of Washington Crossing the Delaware; Mary Cassatt’s The Boating Party; the Chrysler Building in New York City; Norman Rockwell’s iconic Freedom of Speech; and James Karales’s stunning photo of the Selma-to-Montgomery March for Voting Rights in 1965. Accompanying the reproductions are a teacher’s guide and a dynamic website with ideas for using the images in the study of American history, literature, civics, and other subjects. During the first round of applications for Picturing America awards in the spring of 2008, nearly one-fifth of all the schools and public libraries in America applied for the program. In the fall, the first Picturing America sets arrived at more than 26,000 institutions nationwide, and we opened a second application window for Picturing America awards that will be distributed in 2009.

  • Bulletin from the Editor Bill Taylor
    Volume 19 Number 4: Summer 2018 St. BotolphBulletin From the Editor Bill Taylor “Summer afternoon—summer afternoon; to me those have always been the two most beautiful words in the English language,” opined quasi-Botolphian Henry James. But the passing of summer and the arrival of fall poses a conundrum: if Bill Taylor summer afternoons are so long, why, in New England, is the summer season so short? The answer might lie in some mathematical confluence of the tilt of the earth’s axis, its diurnal rotation on that axis and its elliptical orbit around the sun. Or, more likely, it’s just in our minds. At least this year, the Red Sox have stretched summer into October. Quartet Fin de Siècle - Katharina Radlberger, Summer is comparatively quiet at the Club. Some of us travel. Karen McComoney, Jennifer Morsches Some escape to the Cape—or to the other Cape. Some write, paint, sculpt, compose or practice as they cannot during the school year. Some of us less ambitious Botolphians read on the beach what we should have read in the library. And some of us stay-at-homes continue to trek to the Club for enlightenment, food and air-conditioning. Your editor dallied most of the summer at the other Cape but managed a few excursions back Summer afternoon—summer afternoon; to me to the Club. Highlights were those have always been the two most beautiful n Sebastien Cournot’s recital of turn-of-the century piano words in the English language music linked somewhat obliquely to the impressionist painters beloved by Botolphians; n Joshua Rubenstein’s masterful description of Vladimir Putin’s political and economic role from the perspective of Russian history traced from the Czars, through the Soviet Union, through glasnost under Gorbachev and back again to despotism.

Gallery NAGA 67 Newbury Street Boston, Massachusetts 02116 www.gallerynaga.com cover: Back Bay Skyline 1991 oil on linen 22x52" 2 [A] tradition must be a living thing to which each generation of Introduction practitioners makes a contribution, otherwise it becomes an historic artifact preserved but ultimately no longer vital. Karen L. Mulder Art Historian Dorothy Abbott Thompson (1986) Historians of American topics make note of one distinctively American trait: a tendency to revitalize old forms by synthesizing traditional and contemporary styles. Synthesis requires a seedbed of cultural support to take root. By the mid-twentieth century, realism had lost ground in the critical dialogue, colliding with an assertive if not absolutist stream of art criticism and practice that demanded independence from close observation and refined technique. The Boston School painters, technically anchored to the seedbed of 19th-century French realism, attained distinction by combining strictly classical Beaux Arts standards with the lively palette and energetic brushwork of the Impressionist movement they absorbed in Paris firsthand, during the 1880s. By the mid-twentieth century, however, American realism had mostly lost ground to an assertive, if not absolutist, stream of art criticism and practice that pulled close observation and refined technique out of the picture by the roots. Critical respect for the exacting expectations of classical realism, which had been evaporating since the 1920s, entirely disappeared; elite commentators dismissed the life’s work of several generations of pictorial realists as passé and retardataire.

Zerbe emigrated to the United States in 1934, fleeing Germany as the Nazis seized power prior to World War II. Much of Zerbe’s artwork reflects his German upbringing and his time studying and creating art in different cities.

    1 Gerry Bergstein Skeleton Crew October 7 – November 5, 2016 Gallery NAGA 67 Newbury Street Boston, Massachusetts 02116 www.gallerynaga.com cover: Onward!! 2015 mixed media on canvas 36x80" 2 Instead of a traditional catalog essay, I decided to invite two hugely talented artist friends, Sheila Gallagher and Ethan Murrow, to my studio for a discussion of my work. I wanted to have a discourse that I would learn from. I craved the unexpected, the irreverent, and the idiosyncratic. I was not disappointed. Sheila and Ethan are artists who are quite different from each other and from me. What they have in common is deep intelligence, visual sensitivity, and cultural insight. Our two-hour conversation was enlightening, surprising, and, at times, hilarious. I was touched by their graciousness and generosity. Gerry Bergstein Gerry Bergstein The new work is a synthesis of themes I have been dealing with for decades - decay, vanitas, mortality, paradoxes of meaning. I have a three-part image to start this off: Alfred E. Neuman, a mushroom cloud, and a smiling group photo of the cast of the TV show Father Knows Best [1954-1963]. Sheila Gallagher Was that the visual culture that you actually grew up in? GB Yes! That was a major part of it. SG MAD magazine, a picture of a mushroom with the imminent destruction of Earth possible at any second, and the wholesome American family ignoring it all. 3 What was your visual upbringing? What was in your bedroom? What was in your living room? What did you see every day? GB Comic books, Hardy Boys books, and sci-fi mags were in my bedroom.
