  • 40 Years of Art
    Every year on the Saturday before Memorial Day, art blooms on the grounds of the Tippecanoe County Courthouse in downtown Lafayette, Indiana, as artists display their work. 2013 40 YEARS OF ART 1 2 GATHERING ’ROUND THE FOUNTAIN For 40 years, a group of volunteers has been planning, working, © Journal & Courier © Journal recruiting, fundraising and publicizing, all to bring to life the annual ’Round the Fountain Art Fair. Every year on the Saturday before Memorial Day, art blooms on the grounds of the Tippecanoe County Courthouse in downtown Lafayette, Indiana, as artists display their work. Quality Fine Art A focused mission guides the event: Offer a high-quality fine art fair to the community. ’Round the Fountain Art Fair began in 1974 with 40 artists, $500 in artists’ awards and a commendable turnout. The fair quickly grew in number of artists, and for many years now, held to about 100 from about a dozen or so states. Stellar Successes Accepted through a juried process, these accomplished artists excel in watercolors, acrylics, oils, photography, sculpture, jewelry, clay, ceramics, metal, mixed media and more. All work displayed must be original. The number and amount of awards have increased over the years, too. And some 7,000 visitors attend the admission-free event each year. ’Round the Fountain is a story of achievements—valuing and showcasing the Tippecanoe County Courthouse, bringing people together for an enriching activity, giving artists opportunities to showcase their creativity, attracting new artists each year, and developing a renowned, respected arts event. 3 © Manny Cervantes © Manny 4 HONORING OUR BEGINNINGS Eyeing downtown Lafayette and its betterment, residents floated several ideas during the 1960s and 1970s.

W ASIIlNGTON. D.C. SPONSORED BY THE WASHINGTON COLUMBUS CELEBRATION ASSOCIATION IN COORDINATION WITH THE NATIONAL PARK SERVICE CELEBRATING CHRISTOPHER COLUMBUS IN THE NATION'S CAPITAL The Site In the years following the great quadricentennial (400th anniversary) celebration in 1892 of the achievements and discoveries of Christopher Cohnnbus, an effort was launched by the Knights of ~ Columbus to establish a monument to the ~ great discoverer. The U. S. Congress passed a law which mandated a Colwnbus Memorial in the nation's capital and appropriated $100,000 to cover the ~· ~, ·~-~=:;-;~~ construction costs. A commission was T" established composed of the secretaries of State and War, the chairmen of the House and Senate Committees on the Library of Congress, and the Supreme Knight of the Knights of Columbus. With the newly completed Union Railroad Station in 1907, plans focused toward locating the memorial on the plaz.a in front of this great edifice. After a series of competitions, sculptor Lorado Z. Taft of Chicago was awarded the contract. His plan envisioned what you see this day, a monument constructed of Georgia marble; a semi-circular fountain sixty-six feet broad and forty-four feet deep and in the center, a pylon crowned with a globe supported by four eagles oonnected by garland. A fifteen foot statue of Columbus, facing the U. S. Capitol and wrapped in!\ medieval mantle, stands in front of the pylon in the bow of a ship with its pn,, extending into the upper basin of the fountain terminating with a winged figurehead representing democracy.

  • Masters Thesis
    WHERE IS THE PUBLIC IN PUBLIC ART? A CASE STUDY OF MILLENNIUM PARK A Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for The Degree Master of Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Corrinn Conard, B.A. ***** The Ohio State University 2008 Masters Examination Committee: Approved by Dr. James Sanders III, Advisor Advisor Professor Malcolm Cochran Graduate Program in Art Education ABSTRACT For centuries, public art has been a popular tool used to celebrate heroes, commemorate historical events, decorate public spaces, inspire citizens, and attract tourists. Public art has been created by the most renowned artists and commissioned by powerful political leaders. But, where is the public in public art? What is the role of that group believed to be the primary client of such public endeavors? How much power does the public have? Should they have? Do they want? In this thesis, I address these and other related questions through a case study of Millennium Park in Chicago. In contrast to other studies on this topic, this thesis focuses on the perspectives and opinions of the public; a group which I have found to be scarcely represented in the literature about public participation in public art. To reveal public opinion, I have conducted a total of 165 surveys at Millennium Park with both Chicago residents and tourists. I have also collected the voices of Chicagoans as I found them in Chicago’s major media source, The Chicago Tribune . The collection of data from my research reveal a glimpse of the Chicago public’s opinion on public art, its value to them, and their rights and roles in the creation of such endeavors.

  • A Hidden Collection, Helen Balfour Morrison
    A HIDDEN COLLECTION HELEN BALFOUR MORRISON: Masterful Modern 401 LEE ROAD NORTHBROOK, IL 60062 P 847 291 9161 F 847 291 1867 HELEN BALFOUR MORRISON Photographer Helen Balfour Morrison (1901-1984) started as a commercial photographer in Evanston, Illinois, but took up her camera as a serious artist in the 1930s. Rockwell Kent sat for her and introduced her to Bill Kittredge at the Lakeside Press, who suggested she do a book on Great Americans. In the 1930s she began seeking out notable personalities, most of whom she approached and asked to photograph, often doing several sittings in a day. She also photographed people in all walks of life – individuals, families, and children. In the 1940s, the work continued from her new home in Northbrook. In the 1950s she set this work aside and primarily photographed the modern dancer, Sybil Shearer, with whom she had developed a collaborative artistic partnership. The Morrison-Shearer Foundation in Northbrook, Illinois, now holds these collections. The unusual nature of Morrison’s portraits became evident early in her career. J.B. Neumann, of the New Art Circle Gallery in New York, said in 1946, “Mrs. Morrison photographs the soul.” That same year David Daiche, Scottish literary historian then at the University of Chicago, put it this way: Helen Balfour Morrison, Self Portrait Anyone who has seen Helen Morrison at work will appreciate the amount of effort and energy she devotes to the task of getting her subjects to symbolize themselves in a manner which the camera can capture. She does this without arousing any suspicion in the person being photographed that a deliberate “drawing out” is taking place.
