Street Art Rising Marshall Soules—[email protected]
Vol 1 No 2 (Autumn 2020) Online: jps.library.utoronto.ca/index.php/nexj Visit our WebBlog: newexplorations.net Street Art Rising Marshall Soules—[email protected] This illustrated article discusses the various manifestations of street art—graffiti, posters, stencils, social murals—and the impact of street art on urban environments. Continuing perceptions of street art as vandalism contributing to urban decay neglects to account for street art’s full spectrum of effects. As freedom of expression protected by law, as news from under-privileged classes, as images of social uplift and consciousness-raising, and as beautification of urban milieux, street art has social benefits requiring re-assessment. Street art has become a significant global art movement. Detailed contextual history includes the photographer Brassai's interest in Parisian graffiti between the world wars; Cézanne’s use of passage; Walter Benjamin's assemblage of fragments in The Arcades Project; the practice of dérive (passage through diverse ambiances, drifting) and détournement (rerouting, hijacking) as social and political intervention advocated by Guy Debord and the Situationist International; Dada and Surrealist montage and collage; and the art of Quebec Automatists and French Nouveaux réalistes. Present street art engages dynamically with 20th C. art history. The article explores McLuhan’s ideas about the power of mosaic style to subvert the received order, opening spaces for new discourse to emerge, new patterns to be discovered. The author compares street art to advertising, and raises questions about appropriation, authenticity, and style. How does street art survive when it leaves the streets for galleries, design shops, and museums? Street art continues to challenge communication strategies of the privileged classes and elected officials, and increasingly plays a reconstructive role in modulating the emotional tenor of urban spaces. -

Lollesgard Postcards Collection
ARIZONA HISTORICAL SOCIETY 949 East Second Street Library and Archives Tucson, AZ 85719 (520) 617-1157 [email protected] PC 238 Lollesgard Postcard Collection 1935 - 1957 DESCRIPTION The Lollesgard Postcard collection represents the remaining stock from the Lollesgard Specialty Company of Tucson Arizona. The collection contains two distinct parts one with postcards and greeting cards and a second portion of photographs and negatives. The postcards consist of real cards (primarily from the Frashers Inc.), linen or art cards, and chrome cards. The cards were produced from the late 1940s to the 1970s. All have divided backs. Nineteen postcard scrapbooks contain representative samples of postcards available for customer purchase. Five boxes consist of loose cards representing stock cards carried by store. These cards have been arranged by postcard type and then topically by major theme or city for which they represent. Two small boxes house greeting cards with western themes also sold by Lollesgard. The photos and negatives represent images taken or purchased by Lollesgard for consideration in postcard development. Most of the images were not developed into cards and are therefore unique to the postcard portion of the collection. They have been arranged topically as they originally came. 42 Boxes, 21 linear ft. BIOGRAPHICAL NOTE Holger A. “Lolly” Lollesgard was the founder and owner of the Lollesgard Specialty Co. Inc. of Tucson Arizona. He was born in 1893 and was a descendant of the pioneer Alstrup family of Chicago and the Von de Reke Lollesgard family of Denmark. He graduated from the University of Chicago in 1915 and participated in World War I with the 303rd Cavalry Regiment. -
