Preferred Citation [Identification of item], Roz Leader Art Poster collection (Collection Number 1774). Department of Special Collections, Charles E. Young Research Library, UCLA. Biography/History Roz Leader (Rosalinde L. Leader) was born in New York City in 1923. From 1972 to 1985, Leader was the owner of Art Leaders, Ltd., a company in Los Angeles specialized in museum and gallery posters. During her years as a poster publisher and distributor, Leader assembled an extensive collection of art posters, which chronicles exhibitions from museums and galleries around the world. Leader has been considered an expert in the field of art posters, and often called upon to evaluate the value of posters. In 1993, Leader donated her art poster collection to the UCLA Library. The first portion of the collection came to UCLA in 1993, and the remainder was given in 2000. Scope and Content Roz Leader Art Poster Collection is a collection of over 1300 art posters with a diverse range in artists, genres of art, collections and institutions. The bulk of the collection dates from 1960s to 1980s, and the collection records exhibitions held in major museums and galleries during this period. While it consists of art posters from various countries, the bulk of the collection focuses on Europe and North America. The majority of the collection relates to exhibitions, yet some posters document special events, such as American Revolution Bicentennial, Art Expo, and Houston Grand Opera. With its strengths on Modern Art and Contemporary Art, the collection offers a broad survey on works of art by several-hundred renowned artists, such as Mary Cassatt, David Hockney, Jasper Johns, Kandinsky, Andre Kertesz, Roy Lichtenstein, Henri Matisse, Joan Miro, Piet Mondrian, Claude Monet, Georgia O'Keeffe, Pablo Picasso, Robert Rauschenberg, Man Ray, Mark Rothko, Alfred Stieglitz, Toulouse Lautrec, Beth Van Hoesen, and Francisco Zuniga. The collection includes some posters published by Art Leaders, Ltd. It also contains some poster originals, limited editions, silkscreen and signed posters. Organization and Arrangement Finding Aid for the Roz Leader Art 1774 2 Poster collection, 1957-1991 Collection is organized without series and each poster is described at item level. When applicable, item description follows this order: • Name of museum/ gallery/ publishing company/ event, location • Name of artist/ photographer/ illustrator/ designer • Title of artwork in quotation marks/name of exhibition Most items are described with name of museum, name of artist, and title of artwork. To facilitate research access, the collection is listed in alphabetical order, prioritizing names of museum and gallery. The ordering of item description depends on information given on each poster. For example, when name of museum or gallery is not available, name of publishing company may be indicated. When relating to event, name of event is described. If none of above is applicable, the name of artist assumes the first in order. When title of artwork is not given, name of exhibition is provided without quotation marks.

It is my birthday and I am 73 years old. ” It is now seven years since I made the first of the recordings which have been transcribed and edited to make the text of this book. I was persuaded to make these recordings by my friend, the art historian, Joseph Darracott. We had been friends for over forty years and finally I accepted that the project which he was proposing might be feasible and would be worth attempting. And so, in talking about my life as a painter, I applied myself to the discipline of working from a list of questions which had been prepared by Joseph. During our initial discussions about the book Joseph misunderstood my idea, which was to engage in a live dialogue with the cut and thrust of question and answer. The task of responding to questions which had been typed up in advance became much more difficult to deal with because an exercise such as this lacked the kind of stimulus which a live dialogue would have given to it.

This essay investigates how her art was received in Stockholm and Paris. We conclude that although her type of art dominated the avant-garde in Paris during the late fifties, she was too early for the Swedish avant-garde and did not amass enough support to transform it.

  • ”Det Göteborgska Målarkärret Har Sin Historia”, Skriver Konstnären Kent
    JEFF WERNER JEFF WERNER PatHS TROUGH A GotHenBURG QUagMire DET GÖTEBORGSKA MÅLARKÄRRET ‘The Gothenburg painters’ quagmire has its history’, wrote the artist Kent Lindfors.1 This article is not an attempt to write that history, but rather to analyse how it lived on in the 1960s and 1970s. More specifically, it is about how the Gothenburg approach to painting was reproduced and recreated, and ultimately survived. It is thus about the consequences of how people spoke about painting and painters in Gothenburg ; about image, self-image, and identity. My starting point is deceptively simple ; a story does not exist if it is not told. The process of forgetting is often stronger than tradition. What ”Det göteborgska målarkärret har sin historia”, skriver konstnären is not passed on is forgotten. From this perspective it does not matter Kent Lindfors.1 Detta är inte ett försök att skriva kärrets historia, whether the stories that are told are true or not. World history is full of utan om hur det hölls flytande under 1960- och 1970-talen. Mer terrible examples of how plainly untrue stories have shaped events in the specifikt handlar det om hur den göteborgska synen på måleri har present. What is crucial is that the stories are true to those who listen to reproducerats, återskapats och fortlevt. Det handlar alltså om konse- them, in line with Thomas’s theorem : ‘If men define situations as real, they are real in their consequences.’2 kvenserna av hur man talat om måleri och målare i Göteborg, om However, for the most part it is not a matter of telling outright lies självbild, image och identitet.

WHELPLEY CARL ZlfJROSSER The Guggenheim International Award was established by the Trustees of The Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation in 1956. The objective was then, and is now. to create major contemporary art awards carrying with them preeminent national and international prestige. The hope of the Foundation has been that the Award will not only be significant in the field of art but will also be an important manifestation of international good will. The awards and the accompanying exhibitions in 1956, 1958 and 1960 were presented with the cooperation of the International Council of Museums, the International Association of Art Critics, and the International Association of Plastic Arts. The 1964 Award has been administered by the Guggenheim Museum and has become the responsibility of the Director and his staff.
