At the same time, we explore the works of artists who did not retain the renown they enjoyed during their lifetimes and who fell into obscurity. But obscurity is not necessarily forever, and as cycles of taste have changed, these once-forgotten artists and their largely unknown works have re-surfaced to startle us today.

  • Read Franko B's Study Room Guide
    LADA Study Room Guides As part of the continuous development of the Study Room we regularly commission artists and thinkers to write personal Study Room Guides on specifc themes. The idea is to help navigate Study Room users through the resource, enable them to experience the materials in a new way and highlight materials that they may not have otherwise come across. All Study Room Guides are available to view in our Study Room, or can be viewed and/or downloaded directly from their Study Room catalogue entry. Please note that materials in the Study Room are continually being acquired and updated. For details of related titles acquired since the publication of this Guide search the online Study Room catalogue with relevant keywords and use the advance search function to further search by category and date. Cover image credit: Franko B, I Miss You!, Tate Modern 2003, Photographer Hugo Glendinning The Body Study Room Guide by Franko B (2004/5) Franko B was invited to produce a guide looking at body based practices, including works employing the body as an artistic tool and site of representation. Franko approached the guide by drawing up a list of materials we hold that are important to him, of new materials we are in the process of acquiring and of materials he has generously donated to the Study Room. To accompany his list of recommendations he also conducted an interview with Dominic Johnson discussing his choices, their significance to him and to understandings of the possibilities of Live Art.

  • Celebrating Andrew Wyeth the American Artist’S Centennial Is Being Honored with Two Major Retrospectives of His Work
    along the way Celebrating Andrew Wyeth The American artist’s centennial is being honored with two major retrospectives of his work. Andrew Wyeth may have been a favorite of U.S. presidents. In 1963, he became the first painter to receive the Presidential Medal of Freedom when John F. Kennedy bestowed the honor. Richard Nixon once sponsored a White House exhibition of works by the Pennsylvania- and Maine- based artist, and both Bushes honored Wyeth, with the Congressional Gold Medal in 1990 and the National Medal of the Arts in 2007. At the other end of the spectrum, comic- strip character Snoopy owned a Wyeth that he displayed prominently in his doghouse. In between, the artist was alternately lauded and dismissed by critics but remained a perennial commercial favorite. This year marks the centennial of Wyeth’s birth, and two major museum retrospectives have been assembled NORTH CAROLINA MUSEUM OF ART, RALEIGH ART, OF MUSEUM CAROLINA NORTH ©ANDREW WYETH/ARTISTS RIGHTS SOCIETY (ARS), RIGHTS WYETH/ARTISTS ©ANDREW for the occasion.

  • SR Books March 2018.Pdf
    Sunriver Books & Music March 2018 Newsletter Sunriverbooks.com 541-593-2525 Saturday March 31st at 5:00 PM Jennifer Haupt will give a slide show presentation on her moving novel, In The Shadow of 10,000 Hills. Jennifer Haupt spent 25 years as a journalist writing for such pres- tigious publications as O’ Oprah’s magazine, The Seattle Times and Psychology Today. In 2006 she traveled to Rwanda to interview survivors of the genocide. From her experiences she was inspired to write this uplifting novel that intersects the story of a young American woman, Rachel, and the people she meets in Rwanda who will ultimately show her the meaning of grace and home. Lillian Carlson met Henry Shepard at a speech by Martin Luther King Jr., the attraction was instant. Henry was at the event as a newspaper photographer, trying to get his career going, passionate about photog- raphy. Later, the shot he took of Lillian would grace the cover of Life magazine. But in the 1960’s the world was not ready to embrace a rela- tionship between a white man and a black woman. They moved on, Henry married his high school sweetheart, Merilee, and had a daughter, Rachel. The marriage was not happy, Merilee did not understand Henry’s artistic passions, she wanted stability. When Rachel was 8 Henry learned that Lillian had moved to Africa, opening a small orphanage in Rwanda. He had a few dollars set aside and decid- ed he must take this chance, go to Africa and try to prove he could make it as a serious photographer.

Photomontage, Art Institute of Chicago, through prior gift of Adeline Yates. © Martha Rosler. Courtesy of the artist and Mitchell-Innes & Nash, New By the late 1960s, the United States was in pitched conflict both in Vietnam, against a foreign power, and at home—between Americans for and against the war, for and against the status quo. Artists Respond: American Art and the Vietnam War, 1965–1975 presents art created amid this turmoil, spanning the period from President Lyndon B. Johnson’s fateful https://www.e-flux.com/announcements/244630/artists-respond-american-art-and-the-vietnam-war-1965-1975/ decision to deploy U.S. ground troops to South Vietnam in 1965 to the fall of Saigon ten years later. The first national museum exhibition to examine the contemporary impact of the Vietnam War on American art, Artists Respond brings together nearly 100 works by 58 of the most visionary and provocative artists of the period. Galvanized by the moral urgency of the Vietnam War, these artists reimagined the goals and uses of art, affecting developments in multiple movements and media: painting, sculpture, printmaking, performance, installation, documentary art, and conceptualism.
