  • John Edward Walker
    654 He was listed by the New York Times in 1914 as one of the dozen “notable” artists of Carmel.4 That fall his work was included in the Exhibition of Carmel and Southern California Artists at the Rabjohn & Morcom Gallery in San Francisco.5 A year later the Carmel Pine Cone reported that his paintings were selling well in that city.6 During the summer of 1916 he advertised his studio “by appointment only” at the “Schlingman Cottage” on Casanova Street between Seventh and Eighth Avenues.7 He taught art to select students in Carmel, but there is no evidence that he was an instructor at the Arts and Crafts Club Summer School. In 1913 he contributed the painting Coast View to the Seventh Annual Exhibition of that Club.8 As a Carmel resident his canvas was allowed into the award competition for that year. For the Club’s Tenth Annual in 1916 he submitted four pieces: Glow at Evening, Oaks in Spring, Happy Valley and Sand Dune-Carmel. Of these Blanche Marie d’Harcourt, art critic for The Wasp of San Francisco, declared that he “interprets Nature in her most poetical moods.”9 That December she reported that this “modest young Englishman” was hard at work “painting many scenes up the Carmel Valley.”10 In May of 1917 Walker assembled fifteen of his “small and modest” Carmel seascapes for exhibition at the Kanst Gallery in Los Angeles.11 The art critic for the Los Angeles Times, Antony Anderson, found the painter to be “a trifle over-conscientious” in depicting detail, too wordy in his titles and lacking in California’s bright colors, but he praised his drawing skills and genuine emotion.12 In a similar assessment of his “oil sketches” that June at the Schussler Brothers Gallery of San Francisco Anna Cora Winchell, the art critic of the San Francisco Chronicle, observed that the British painter depicted:13 .

  • Created in California: Summer Art Fare Includes a Variety of Work
    Created in California: Summer Art Fare Includes a Variety of Work Made in the Golden State (Published in Coast magazine in 2015) Rex Brandt, Surfriders (1959) California art can be many things to many people. Aficionados often discuss its captivation with color and light, tendency for innovation, as well as inclusion of different styles and influences. Three art exhibitions in The OC this summer explore these varied perspectives, while also looking at a bit of the history and the wide range of art made in California. In Laguna Beach, where the Art Museum is cooled by ocean breezes and colorful flowers grace nearby Heisler Park, “Rex Brandt: In Praise of Sunshine” features scenic/modernist landscapes. Here, 50 twentieth century paintings by Brandt bridge landscape with abstract styles, while bringing to light this icon of American Scene Painting. The title of this show is taken from the artist’s words: “Whether we are conscious of it or not, everything in the perceived world is in motion. Sunshine is the mediator, a pervasive quality in which things are lost and found, emerge and recede.” Rexford Elson Brandt was born in San Diego in 1914 and grew up in Riverside, California, at a time when impressionism proliferated in this area. While influenced by this style, his education at UC Berkeley, including German expressionist style studio work, inspired him to incorporate expressionism and abstraction into his art. After studying at Stanford and the University of Redlands, he moved back to Southern California and joined the California Water Color Society. Brandt worked alongside Phil Dike, Emil Kosa Jr., Barse Miller and Millard Sheets; artists creating a distinctly American artistic style, depicting this country’s landscapes and urbanscapes.

  • Painting Today and Yesterday in the United States (June 5–September 1)
    1941 Painting Today and Yesterday in the United States (June 5–September 1) Painting Today and Yesterday in the United States was the museum’s opening exhibition, highlighting trends in American art from colonial times onward as it reflected the unique culture and history of the United States. The exhibition also exemplified the mission of the SBMA to be a center for the promotion of art in the community as well as a true museum (Exhibition Catalogue, 13). The exhibition included nearly 140 pieces by an array of artists, such as Winslow Homer (1836–1910), Walt Kuhn (1877–1949), Edward Hopper (1882–1967), Yasuo Kuniyoshi (1889–1953), and Charles Burchfield (1893–1967), and A very positive review of the exhibition appeared in the June issue of Art News, with particular accolades going to the folk art section. The Santa Barbara News-Press wrote up the opening in the June 1 edition, and Director Donald Bear wrote a series of articles for the News-Press that elaborated on the themes, content, and broader significance of the exhibition. Three paintings from this exhibition became part of the permanent collection of the SBMA: Henry Mattson’s (1873–1953) Night Mystery, Max Weber’s (1881–1961) Winter Twilight, and Katherine Schmidt’s (1899–1978) Pear in Paper Bag (scrapbook 1941–1944–10). The theme of this exhibition was suggested by Mrs. Spreckels (Emily Hall Spreckels (Tremaine)) at a Board meeting and was unanimously approved. The title of the exhibition was suggested by Donald Bear, also unanimously approved by the Board. Van Gogh Paintings (September 9) Seventeen of Vincent van Gogh’s (1853–1890) paintings were shown in this exhibition of the “most tragic painter in history.” This exhibition was shown in conjunction with the Master Impressionists show (see “Three Master French Impressionists” below).
