  • WPA Mural Studies Elyse
    Episode 710, Story 1: WPA Mural Studies Elyse: Our first story searches for connections between a collection of unusual paintings and the largest job creation program in our nation’s history. As Franklin Delano Roosevelt takes the oath of office in 1933, 15 million Americans are unemployed – 25% of the workforce idled by the Great Depression. Within his first one hundred days Roosevelt launches bold reforms. President Roosevelt: I pledge myself…to a New Deal for the American people. Elyse: FDR’s New Deal work programs will put more than 8 million back to work. And not everyone is laying roads and mixing cement – the program also employs over 40,000 in various arts projects. This unprecedented harnessing of artistic talent will create thousands of paintings, sculptures and murals for public buildings across the country. But today, nearly a third of this artwork is missing – what happened to these important pieces of our nation’s history? Evelyn Cook of Molalla, Oregon, has inherited some paintings that may be part of this lost work. Evelyn: You know, I’ve seen my aunt’s artwork all my life. And now I wonder if there are others out there being inspired by her work as well? Hi, Elyse! Welcome! Elyse: Thank you, thank you. Wow. Look at these! Wow, they’re incredible. Now who’s the artist? Evelyn: It was my aunt, Thelma Johnson Streat. And we think that they were done in the early 1940’s. Elyse: And can you tell me a little bit about her? 1 Evelyn: From the time I was a little child my mom told us we had this famous aunt, who was a famous artist, and so whenever she’d come to town we’d have these big, you know, family get togethers and that’s me and that’s my aunt Thelma.

  • Ancient Mexico in United States Art and Visual Culture, 1933-1945
    ABSTRACT Title of Document: FORGING A NEW WORLD NATIONALISM: ANCIENT MEXICO IN UNITED STATES ART AND VISUAL CULTURE, 1933-1945 Breanne Robertson, Doctor of Philosophy, 2012 Directed By: Associate Professor Renée Ater, Department of Art History and Archaeology Professor Sally M. Promey, Department of American Studies, Yale University, formerly Department of Art History and Archaeology, University of Maryland Between 1933 and 1945, Americans redefined their cultural identity within a hemispheric context and turned toward Mexican antiquity to invent a non-European national mythos. This reconfiguration of ancient Mexican history and culture coincided with changes in U.S. foreign policy regarding Latin American nations. In his inaugural address on March 4, 1933, President Franklin Roosevelt launched the Good Neighbor Policy, hoping to build an international alliance with Latin American countries that would safeguard the Western hemisphere from the political and economic crises in Europe. As part of these efforts, the government celebrated Mesoamerican civilization as evidence of a great hemispheric heritage belonging also to United States citizens. These historical circumstances altered earlier American views of ancient Mexico as simultaneously a preindustrial paradise of noble savages and an uncivilized site of idolatry, revolution, and human sacrifice. My dissertation examines this official reinterpretation of American past and present reality under the Good Neighbor Policy. Specifically, I consider the portrayal of ancient Mexico in United States art as a symbol of pan-American identity in order to map the ideological contours of U.S. diplomacy and race relations. The chapters of the dissertation present a series of case studies, each devoted to a different facet of the international discourse of U.S.-led pan-Americanism as it was internally conceived and domestically disseminated.
