  • Collection Highlights Since Its Founding in 1924, the Kalamazoo Institute of Arts Has Built a Collection of Nearly 5,000 Artworks
    Collection Highlights Since its founding in 1924, the Kalamazoo Institute of Arts has built a collection of nearly 5,000 artworks. Enjoy an in-depth exploration of a selection of those artworks acquired by gift, bequest, or purchase support by special donors, as written by staff curators and guest editors over the years. Table of Contents KENOJUAK ASHEVAK Kenojuak Ashevak (ken-OH-jew-ack ASH-uh-vac), one of the most well-known Inuit artists, was a pioneering force in modern Inuit art. Ashevak grew up in a semi-nomadic hunting family and made art in various forms in her youth. However, in the 1950s, she began creating prints. In 1964, Ashevak was the subject of the Oscar-nominated documentary, Eskimo* Artist: Kenojuak, which brought her and her artwork to Canada’s—and the world’s—attention. Ashevak was also one of the most successful members of the Kinngait Co-operative, also known as the West Baffin Eskimo Co-operative, established in 1959 by James Houston, a Canadian artist and arts administrator, and Kananginak Pootoogook (ka-nang-uh-nak poo-to-guk), an Inuit artist. The purpose of the co-operative is the same as when it was founded—to raise awareness of Inuit art and ensure indigenous artists are compensated appropriately for their work in the Canadian (and global) art market. Ashevak’s signature style typically featured a single animal on a white background. Inspired by the local flora and fauna of the Arctic, Ashevak used bold colors to create dynamic, abstract, and stylized images that are devoid of a setting or fine details.

    A Few Different Sleeping Sites, 1950-2010 William V. Davidson, Cultural Geographer My Five Favorites 1. Tulum ruins, Quintana Roo, México, 1965. In my jungle hammock in ruins, at structure 20, completely alone for a few nights. This photograph was taken with a self-timer on my 35 mm camera. I was looking for evidence of a sac-be, one of the ancient “white roads” of the Maya that ran from the coast to interior sites. The residents of the hamlet of Tulum, a couple of miles away, were visited, but they were so poor (and perhaps too suspicious of me) they refused to give me even a tortilla. They did allow me to fill my water jug from their well. Water in the small cenote within the walls at Tulum looked a bit dirty for drinking. However, it was a nice place to bathe before going to sleep. 2. Taj Mahal, Agra, India, 1962. To fulfill a childhood desire, following a stunt by Richard Halliburton, on August 14, under a full moon, I slept on the hard, cold marble floor next to the tomb in the Taj Mahal in Agra, India. I was in India for the summer participating in the Experiment in International Living. 3. Bolivian Altiplano, August 1963. South of Lago Titicaca: abandoned Chipaya-Puquina sod house. Yes, it was cold at 13,000+ feet elevation in the South American winter. With brother Junie and pilot uncle Thayne Muller, while on our single-engine flight around South America. Our only projects around here were to visit the largest South American pilgrimage at Copacabana on the shore of Lake Titicaca and to seek sites of the indigenous Uru people.

  • Chronology of Seventh-Day Adventist Education: 1872-1972
    CII818L8tl or SIYIITI·Ill IIYIITIST IIUCITIGI CENTURY OF ADVENTIST EDUCATION 1872 - 1972 ·,; Compiled by Walton J. Brown, Ph.D. Department of Education, General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists ·t. 6840 Eastern Avenue, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20012 i/ .I Foreword In anticipation of the education centennial in 1972 and the publication of a Seventh-day Adventist chronology of education, the General Conference Department of Education started to make inquiries of the world field for historical facts and statistics regarding the various facets of the church program in education. The information started to come in about a year ago. Whlle some of the responses were quite detalled, there were others that were rather general and indefinite. There were gaps and omissions and in several instances conflicting statements on certain events. In view of the limited time and the apparent cessation of incoming materials from the field, a small committee was named with Doctor Walton J. Brown as chairman. It was this committee's responsibility to execute the project in spite of the lack of substantiation of certain information. We believe that this is the first project of its kind in the denomination's history. It is hoped that when the various educators and administrators re­ view the data about their own organizations, they will notify the Department of Education concerning any corrections and additions. They should please include supporting evidence from as many sources as possible. It is hoped that within the next five to ten years a revised edition may replace this first one. It would contain not only necessary changes, but also would be brought up to date.
