The 1969 panels attempt to depict, visually, a collection of ideas. The “forms” draw on pictographs, calligraphic forms, folk art 2 motifs, ancient and modern symbols, and things arcane.” 8’ h x 22’ w In 1969, commissioned by the City of Richland for exterior of Richland Public Library. In 2009, the piece was moved to the interior as part of the Library renovation.

Steve Yerian “Pablo Picasso said, “Art is a lie that makes us realize the truth.’ And so it is with this painting. Perhaps the hot yellow, 2009 orange and red elements of the painting symbolize the volcanoes of the past that formed the basalt so common in the Columbia Basin. Perhaps the dancing cool blue green color is the ancient flood water from Lake Missoula, or moving 5 forward in time, maybe the water of the Might Columbia River. This painting is not so about a specific place or point in time; but rather a sense of place and time here in the Columbia Basin.” 42” h x 48” w After the Flood Oil on Linen Richland Public Library 6 Eric LoPresti “Large format painting of an aerial view north of Hanford showing giant sand coulees extending across the desert steppe. The 2009 formations are unique to this region, and resulted from the cataclysmic Missoula ice-age floods. This piece graphically illus- trates the unique character of the regional landscape, while reminding us of our small place within geological history.” 60” x 40” Untitled Bronze Richland Public Library 7 Leonard Ross Sculpture 2000 19” h x 40” w The young girl reading is in honor of Mary Lih, for her years of dedicated volunteer service to the Richland Library.

  • Cuban Antifascism and the Spanish Civil War: Transnational Activism, Networks, and Solidarity in the 1930S
    Cuban Antifascism and the Spanish Civil War: Transnational Activism, Networks, and Solidarity in the 1930s Ariel Mae Lambe Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2014 © 2014 Ariel Mae Lambe All rights reserved ABSTRACT Cuban Antifascism and the Spanish Civil War: Transnational Activism, Networks, and Solidarity in the 1930s Ariel Mae Lambe This dissertation shows that during the Spanish Civil War (1936–1939) diverse Cubans organized to support the Spanish Second Republic, overcoming differences to coalesce around a movement they defined as antifascism. Hundreds of Cuban volunteers—more than from any other Latin American country—traveled to Spain to fight for the Republic in both the International Brigades and the regular Republican forces, to provide medical care, and to serve in other support roles; children, women, and men back home worked together to raise substantial monetary and material aid for Spanish children during the war; and longstanding groups on the island including black associations, Freemasons, anarchists, and the Communist Party leveraged organizational and publishing resources to raise awareness, garner support, fund, and otherwise assist the cause. The dissertation studies Cuban antifascist individuals, campaigns, organizations, and networks operating transnationally to help the Spanish Republic, contextualizing these efforts in Cuba’s internal struggles of the 1930s. It argues that both transnational solidarity and domestic concerns defined Cuban antifascism. First, Cubans confronting crises of democracy at home and in Spain believed fascism threatened them directly. Citing examples in Ethiopia, China, Europe, and Latin America, Cuban antifascists—like many others—feared a worldwide menace posed by fascism’s spread.

Publication Date 2015-08-01 Peer reviewed eScholarship.org Powered by the California Digital Library University of California FLAG RESEARCH QUARTERLY REVUE TRIMESTRIELLE DE RECHERCHE EN VEXILLOLOGIE AUGUST / AOÛT 2015 No. 7 ARTICLE A research publication of the North American Vexillological Association / Une publication de recherche de Drapo Vodou: Sacred l‘Association nord-américaine de vexillologie Standards of Haitian Vodou By ANNE M. PLATOFF* Introduction The field of vexillology is, by nature, a multidisciplinary one. It is difficult to understand the significance of an individual flag or group of flags without exam- ining the context within which those objects were created and are used. This paper will present a case study of a multidisciplinary investigation of one type of flags. Haitian Vodou flags (drapo Vodou) are little known to vexillologists, but have been studied by scholars in the fields of art, anthropology, African-American studies, and other disciplines. An investigation of prior scholarship from these areas demon- strates that this category of flags is not only significantly different than the flags usually examined by vexillologists, but they also have much to teach us about the study of flags as a multidisciplinary exercise. There are several books that are focused on Vodou flags. Patrick Arthur Polk, a prolific researcher on the topic, has produced a colorful and informative book titled Haitian Vodou Flags (1999). In his book, Polk summarizes information compiled in the preparation of his Ph.D.

  • Creative Flow
    Using marine debris, painted silk, Creative Flow and paper, artist Pam Longobardi, Linda Gass, and Lauren Rosenthal Three Activist Artists advocate for greater consciousness by Sally Hansell of our fragile water systems. owerful new work by three activist artists addresses one of the nation’s most critical issues—the steady degradation of our precious water supply. Pam Lon- gobardi uses plastic trash collected on beaches to Pmake provocative art that points to the devastating dangers of plastic in our environment. Linda Gass creates vibrant paint- ed-silk quilt works depicting specific ecological hazards in San Francisco Bay. Lauren Rosenthal turns watershed data into cut- paper sculptures to demonstrate the interconnectedness of riv- ers and earthly organisms. Through their chosen media, these diverse artists advocate for a heightened global ecological con- sciousness. In 2006, Pam Longobardi launched an ongoing project called Drifters after encountering mounds of consumer waste on the beach at South Point, the southernmost tip of the Hawaiian Islands. The project includes photography, sculp- ture, public art, and installations made from the debris that washes up on shores around the world. The Atlanta artist creates “driftwebs” from abandoned drift nets, the miles-long fishing nets that wreak havoc on sea life, killing fish, mammals, turtles, and birds. She cuts and ties pieces of the nets to make installations resembling spider webs. Her intent is not only to draw attention to the dan- gerous plastic nets, but more importantly, to use their woven colorful forms as a dual metaphor for the predatory, destruc- tive behavior of humankind and the interconnectedness of the web of life.
