The Anchorage Museum’s Patricia B. Wolf Solo Exhibition Series supports the work and development of Alaska artists, highlighting new bodies of work by individual artists. Alaska artists are invited to submit applications to a selection committee comprised of museum staff and art professionals. These solo art exhibitions will be scheduled starting in 2017. The Anchorage Museum is currently accepting proposals from Alaska residents and all tribally enrolled Alaska Natives. Works in all media will be considered. The Anchorage Museum is also accepting curatorial and group proposals featuring more than one artist. These proposals will not be part of the Patricia B. Wolf exhibition series but will be brought before the museum’s Exhibition Review Committee for consideration. Applicants for group and curatorial proposals do not need to be from Alaska, but successful proposals will support the museum’s mission to connect people, expand perspectives and encourage global dialogue about the North and its distinct environment. The Anchorage Museum encourages artists to develop new works for these opportunities. Interested artists can learn more and apply for both opportunities at callforentry.org and www.anchoragemuseum.org/about-us/artist-opportunities/. For questions, please contact, Angela Demma, von der Heydt Curator, [email protected]. The Anchorage Museum is grateful to the Alaska State Council on the Arts; National Endowment for the Arts, a federal agency; and Anchorage Museum Foundation’s Alaska Airlines Silver Anniversary Fund for ongoing support of the museum’s important solo exhibition series. Museum expansion update: Construction begins on new wing The museum is expanding to the North - with the addition of 25,000 square feet of new gallery space for the art collection and an exploration of art in the North. The expansion will add four art galleries, informal gallery/event spaces, administrative offices and additional space for the Discovery Center. Concurrently, we are excited to be underway on a new 15,000-square-foot Alaska gallery that explores the landscape, people, lifeways and stories of Alaska. This expansion is about more than bringing works from the collection out for public view. It's also about creating a compelling narrative for the North through the lens of art and furthering the museum's mission of expanding perceptions of the North, its landscape and cultures. The project is made possible through a generous gift from the Rasmuson family, which has been matched by a grant from the Rasmuson Foundation. Construction has begun, with completion set for the fall of 2017. The museum will remain open during construction with only affected areas closed. At times traffic on Sixth Avenue and A Street will be impacted. Alternate detour routes, if you wish to avoid construction: Eastbound traffic: 3rd, 4th, 7th, and 9th avenues Northbound traffic: E, Gambell, and Cordova streets Roadway impact is subject to change. For updated information, go to anchoragemuseum.org/visit or call 929-9200.

    Return to Flight Task Group Final Report July 2005 Final Report of the Return to Flight Task Group Assessing the Implementation of the Columbia Accident Investigation Board Return-to-Flight Recommendations July 2005 Final Report of the Return to Flight Task Group On the Front Cover The STS-114 patch design signifies the return of the Space Shuttle to flight and honors the memory of the STS-107 Columbia crew. The blue Shuttle rising above Earth’s horizon includes the Columbia constellation of seven stars, echoing the STS-107 patch and commemorating the seven members of that mission. The crew of STS-114 will carry the memory of their friends on Columbia and the legacy of their mission back into Earth orbit. The dominant design element of the STS-114 patch is the planet Earth, which represents the unity and dedication of the many people whose efforts allow the Space Shuttle to safely return to flight. Against the background of the Earth at night, the blue orbit represents the International Space Station (ISS), with the EVA crewmembers named on the orbit. The red sun on the orbit signifies the contributions of the Japanese Space Agency to the mission and to the ISS program. The multi-colored Space Shuttle plume represents the broad spectrum of challenges for this mission, including Orbiter inspection and repair experiments, and bringing supplies to the International Space Station. (Courtesy of NASA) On the Title Page Discovery heads for the International Space Station during the STS-114 return-to-flight launch on July 26, 2005.

  • Kindred Spirits: Stories of Sister Relationships
    KINDRED SPIRITS: STORIES OF SISTER RELATIONSHIPS MELANIE L. MAUTHNER INSTITUTE OF EDUCATION UNIVERSITY OF LONDON A DISSERTATION SUBM11 1ED TO LONDON UNIVERSITY FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR IN PHILOSOPHY APRIL 1998 1 Abstract This sociological study explores the construction of feminine subjectivities within biological sister relationships - a neglected, socially invisible tie. The qualitative research design, data collection and analysis are embedded in feminist standpoint theory and feminist post-structuralism. Sociological work in auto/biography is applied as a method for collecting and analysing sister life histories. Four methods were used to collect data from 37 women from varied class and ethnic backgrounds across six decades aged between 6 and 50 in the UK: a questionnaire; an Ecomap; a Flowchart; and a semi-structured depth interview. Five elements of the bond were documented: contact patterns, types of tie, factors affecting these ties, comparisons with female friendship, and changes over time. The data from 29 interviews were analysed through case studies, the auto/biographical method and grounded theory. A typology of four strands was developed to analyse the women's narratives: best friendship, close and distant companionship, the positioned and shifting positions discourses. Contact patterns between sisters were associated with forms of female friendship: some ties recalled the intensity of best friendship; others, the positive and negative aspects of distance and separateness of close and distant companionship. Sister ties evolve over time, moving from best friendship during girlhood to companionship in womanhood, or vice-versa. Change stems from circumstances external to the tie, and from internal shifts. These external changes - oscillating patterns of dependence and independence - are linked to turning-points and life events: changing school, acquiring and losing girlfriends and boyfriends, leaving home, starting work, divorce, bereavement, and mothering.

  • The Sculpture of Jacques Lipchitz
    The sculpture of Jacques Lipchitz Author Hope, Henry R. (Henry Radford), 1905- 1989 Date 1954 Publisher The Museum of Modern Art: Distributed by Simon & Schuster Exhibition URL www.moma.org/calendar/exhibitions/2913 The Museum of Modern Art's exhibition history— from our founding in 1929 to the present—is available online. It includes exhibition catalogues, primary documents, installation views, and an index of participating artists. MoMA © 2017 The Museum of Modern Art The Sculpture of Jacques Lipchitz 96 pages; 100 plates $3.00 The Sculpture of Jacques Lipchitz BY HENRY R. HOPE No other sculptor of Lipchitz' generation can show such multifarious variety of style or so great a range of feeling. His art matured under the stimulus, and within the discipline, of cubism whose sculptural potentialities he brilliantly ex plored for over ten years. Since the thirties, his work has shown a vigor and eloquence which allies him with the tradition of Bernini and Rodin. Central to Lipchitz' evolution as an artist is the transition from the impersonal collective style of cubism to an art more personal in accent and theme. This transition is studied in detail by Mr. Hope, who gives special attention to his transparents, the revolutionary, small, open- form bronzes, cast in the difficult "lost wax" technique which marked the turning point in his own art and were to have widespread influence. In this first monograph on the artist in English, one hundred plates illustrate all periods of his career, including each of his major large-scale sculptures. Related drawings supplement the sculpture, and many small terracotta sketches document the original inspiration for several master works.
