  • Name of Object: Apollo and Daphne Location: Rome, Italy Holding
    Name of Object: Apollo and Daphne Location: Rome, Latium, Italy Holding Museum: Borghese Gallery Date of Object: 1622–1625 Artist(s) / Craftsperson(s): Gian Lorenzo Bernini (1598, Naples-1680, Rome) Museum Inventory Number: CV Material(s) / Technique(s): Marble Dimensions: h: 243 cm Provenance: Borghese Collection Type of object: Sculpture Description: This sculpture is considered one of the masterpieces in the history of art. Bernini began sculpting it in 1622 after he finished The Rape of Proserpina. He stopped working on it from 1623 to 1624 to sculpt David, before completing it in 1625. With notable technical accuracy, the natural agility of this work shows the astonishing moment when the nymph turns into a laurel tree. The artist uses his exceptional technical skill to turn the marble into roots, leaves and windswept hair. Psychological research, combined with typically Baroque expressiveness, renders the emotion of Daphnes terror, caught by the god in her desperate journey, still ignorant of her ongoing transformation. Apollo, thinking he has achieved his objective, is caught in the moment he becomes aware of the metamorphosis, before he is able to react, watching astonished as his victim turns into a laurel tree. For Apollos head, Bernini looked to Apollo Belvedere, which was in the Vatican at the time. The base includes two scrolls, the first containing the lines of the distich by Maffeo Barberini, a friend of Cardinal Scipione Borghese and future Pope Urban VIII. It explores the theme of vanitas in beauty and pleasure, rendered as a Christian moralisation of a profane theme. The second scroll was added in the mid-1700s.

WALLY FINDLAY GALLERIES 124 East 57th Street, New York, NY (212) 421 5390 [email protected] Aïzpiri Paul Aïzpiri (b. 1919) was born in Paris on May 14, 1919. Aïzpiri entered l’École Bulle to learn antique restoration, after his father insisted that he first learn a trade as a means of assuring his livelihood. After the course he entered the Beaux-Arts to study painting. Aïzpiri was certainly encouraged as a young painter in his early 20’s, during somber war-torn France, exhibiting amongst the painters of l’École Pont-Aven and the Nabis. He became a member of the Salon d’Automne in 1945, won Third Prize at the Salon de Moins de Trente Ans, of which he was a founding member and later showed at the Salon “Les Peintres Témoin de leur Temps”. In 1948, Aïzpiri won the Prix Corsica which allowed him to go to Marseilles. His stay there so impressed him, that he declared it was a turning point of his art. Not only did he find a whole new world to paint which was far different subjectively from any life he had known in Paris, but also a new world of color.

Some were outraged, others merely amused. At that time only a few of the critics were aware of the importance of the event. Even fewer critics realized that the special characteristics of these paintings would have a decisive influence on the future development of Gortain futur e twentieth century art.

    Copyright by Kanitra Shenae Fletcher 2011 The Thesis Committee for Kanitra Shenae Fletcher Certifies that this is the approved version of the following thesis: Damage Control: Black Women's Visual Resistance in Brazil and Beyond APPROVED BY SUPERVISING COMMITTEE: Supervisor: Moyosore Okediji Cherise Smith Damage Control: Black Women's Visual Resistance in Brazil and Beyond by Kanitra Shenae Fletcher, B.A. Thesis Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts The University of Texas at Austin May 2011 Dedication To my beloved late aunt Aundra Thornton. Abstract Damage Control: Black Women's Visual Resistance in Brazil and Beyond Kanitra Shenae Fletcher, M.A. The University of Texas at Austin, 2011 Supervisor: Moyosore Okediji Jezebels, Mammies, and Matriarchs… These labels signify racialized and gendered social constructions that transnationally pervade the lives of black women. By contextualizing black women’s artwork as visual responses to social subjugation and objectification, one can discern the (literal) materialization of black feminist epistemology through artistic production and the aesthetic concerns that drive expressive work. This thesis therefore analyzes black Brazilian artist Rosana Paulino’s work as a visual form of resistance to three major “controlling images” of black women in Brazil as sexually promiscuous, domestic laborers, and unfit mothers. Her work represents not only the Brazilian black woman’s experience; it broadens and deepens the conversation on black women’s art in Africa and its diasporas, where similar stereotypes exist. Several v of Paulino’s personal statements and artworks address subjects that parallel those made by black women artists--María Magdalena Campos-Pons, Lorna Simpson, Zanele Muholi, and Wangechi Mutu, to name a few--whose artwork is also considered in this paper.

  • A Cause for Reflection: Imagining Brazil at 100 Years of Independence
    A Cause for Reflection: Imagining Brazil at 100 Years of Independence By Joseph M. Pendergraph Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Vanderbilt University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS in History August, 2015 Nashville, Tennessee Approved: Marshall C. Eakin, Ph.D. Sarah E. Igo, Ph.D. “O Gigante: Vossos irmãoes na pátria nova passam tranquillos com riqueza largos annos… outro sistema de gouverno abraçam, que julgam mais propício para os humanos, porque nesse regimen, ali novo, dizem que manda simplesmente o povo.”1 “For my part I will say that, if my body leaves [Brazil], my heart stays, and that, if one day it should split, on it will be seen the words Brazil and Portugal, so intensely linked, so intimately intertwined, that it shall not be possible to separate one from the other.”2 1 Augusto de Lacerda, As duas patrias: poêma em homenagem a Portugal e Brasil por occasião do centenário da abertura dos portos brasileiros ao commércio do mundo (Porto: Oficinas do Commercio do Porto, 1908), 116 – The passage reads roughly, “The Giant: Your brothers in the new Pátria calmly live long years with richness / embracing another form of government that they believe to be more propitious for mankind / because in this new regime it is said that the people simply govern.” The timing of this quotation is key for understanding the critique. The work was published in 1908 just two years before the overthrow of the Portuguese monarchy. The decadence of the throne in the nineteenth century had led to intellectual criticism in the 1870s and republican revolts and conspiracies in the last years of the century.

    Documentary Introduction to the Ángel Ramos and Tina Hills Donation For a young institution like the Museo de Arte de Puerto Rico (MAPR), the bequest of thirty artworks donated by Ángel Ramos and Tina Hills represents both a responsibility and a commitment, a commitment that binds the Museum to continue the visionary, nation-building work done by these two exemplary philanthropists for so many years. Ángel Ramos was a pioneer of modern media communications in Puerto Rico. From a family of few resources and little formal education, he began as a proofreader and layout man at El Mundo newspaper and went on to hold several management positions until, in 1946, he became its editor and owner. His professional career almost literally skyrocketed. Along the way he created publications such as Puerto Rico Ilustrado and Puerto Rico World Journal, owned radio stations, and pioneered television in Puerto Rico. To these accomplishments he added the creation of the Ángel Ramos Foundation in 1958, a philanthropic organization unparalleled in the history of Puerto Rico. Ángel Ramos was also a person of great aesthetic sensitivity, which led him to become a patron of outstanding artists and an exemplary collector. Tina (Argentina S.) Hills took on the responsibilities of the El Mundo family of businesses on the death of her husband, Ángel Ramos, and in 1966 she achieved his dream of completing the establishment of the Foundation that bears his name. Today, after a long career in newspapers, radio, television, and philanthropy, she is the president of the Ángel Ramos Foundation and has also continued, with untiring enthusiasm, to collect works of art from Puerto Rico and abroad.

US$500,000−700,000 New York / Berlin / Paris, July 17, 2012—artnet Auctions presents the Fine Modern Art sale, a selection of over 30 important 20th century works by luminaries such as Milton Avery, Joan Miró, Alexander Calder, Marc Chagall, Angel Botello, Raoul Dufy, Jean Dubuffet, Pablo Picasso, and Henry Moore. Featured in the sale is Crucifixion (est. US$500,000–700,000), an oil on canvas by the American Modern master Milton Avery. The work was completed during a painting trip Avery took to Mexico in 1946. During his time in Mexico, he visited Frida Kahlo (Mexican, 1907–1954) and Diego Rivera (Mexican, 1886–1957), among other notable artists, and was inspired by the colors and shapes of the country’s landscape. Focusing on simple compositions and the profound role of object placement, these canvases were “infused with a great deal of poetry,” according to Avery’s wife Sally, who accompanied him on the trip. Crucifixion is a masterful example of Avery’s work at what is perhaps the most interesting stylistic stage of his career.
