Art in America
MAGAZINE NOV. 01, 2013 THE PARSONS EFFECT by Judith E. Stein, Helène Aylon Betty Bierne Pierson, the rebellious, selfassured offspring of an old New York family, was 13 when she visited the historic Armory Show in 1913 and set her course on becoming an artist. Her conservative parents acquiesced to art lessons but drew the line at higher education for women. At 20, she married Schuyler Livingston Parsons, a man of wealth and social standing. He proved to be as captivated by men Betty Parsons, 1963. as she was by women, and a gambler and an alcoholic to boot. The Photo Alexander Liberman. The Getty couple divorced amicably in Paris, where she spent the 1920s in Research Institute, Los comfort, sharing her life with Adge Baker, a British art student, and Angeles. © J. Paul Getty Trust. taking classes with Ossip Zadkine and Antoine Bourdelle, among others. Her friends included expatriate Americans Hart Crane, Man Ray, Alexander Calder, and Gerald and Sara Murphy, as well as lesbian literati Gertrude Stein, Natalie Barney and Janet Flanner. Disinherited after her divorce, Parsons also lost her alimony support when the stock market crashed. Generous girlhood friends aided her return to the U.S. in 1933, first to Hollywood, where her acquaintances numbered Greta Garbo, Marlene Dietrich, Tallulah Bankhead, Dorothy Parker and Robert Benchley. She then lived in Santa Barbara, teaching art, painting portraits and consulting on French wines at a liquor store. In 1935, she funded a move to New York by selling her engagement ring. Parsons's loyal circle supplemented the slender income she earned from sales of her own art and from commissions by dealers such as Mrs. -

Saul Steinberg
Our Steinberg Journey Over these years, we have committed the Gallery to acquiring and offering a carefully curated body of remarkable art by Saul Steinberg. What a joy it has been. He was prolific and constantly creating new ways of seeing the world around us. He was a commentator on the human condition in subtle and profound and yet simple ways. He said, “I am a writer who draws,” and we are, indeed, very drawn to his finest drawings. Bernie Pucker, 2021 With Thanks With thanks to Patterson Sims and Sheila Schwartz at The Saul Steinberg Foundation for their invaluable knowledge of the artist and for helping guide us to a better understanding of his life and work. For more information, visit The Saul Steinberg Foundation website at www.saulsteinbergfoundation.org. The Art of Saul Steinberg The art of Saul Steinberg begins with the black line, the simplest of artistic marks. Within the relative quiet of line, however, lies an intricate lexicon of symbols and ideas. His art rewards close looking and thoughtful analysis, all the while evading easy explanation. Steinberg was by all accounts a private man whose career as an artist gave him a very public persona. Much ink has been spilled in the pursuit of gaining insight into his life, mind, and work. Harold Rosenberg’s 1978 essay, Joel Smith’s Steinberg at The New Yorker (2005) and Saul Steinberg: Illuminations (2006), and the comprehensive research available from the Saul Steinberg Foundation (saulsteinbergfoundation.org) are instrumental resources. A master draftsman, a commander of visual puns, an encyclopedia of art and historical references, Steinberg created a staggering body of work which, over the course of six decades, provided an incisive, sardonic, and humorous perspective on twentieth-century life. -

Their edited remarks derive from an interview and subsequent email revisions in May and June, 2018, with Patterson Sims, Managing Director of The Saul Steinberg Foundation. Art Spiegelman: I was first exposed to Steinberg’s work as a kid in the early 1960s at the dentist’s office. I’d glance past the covers of The New Yorker to find the cartoons that still continued the tradition of Peter Arno and Charles Addams—that was as lowbrow as the magazine got in those days. -
Saul Steinberg, Moma, and the Unstable Cultural Field
ITALIAN MODERN ART | ISSUE 3: ISSN 2640-8511 Saul Steinberg, MoMA, and the Unstable Cultural Field SAUL STEINBERG, MOMA, AND THE UNSTABLE CULTURAL FIELD 0 italianmodernart.org/journal/articles/saul-steinberg-moma-and-the-unstable- Will Norman Methodologies of Exchange: MoMA’s “Twentieth-Century Italian Art” (1949), Issue 3, January 2020 ABSTRACT This essay addresses the U.S. cultural field of the late 1940s as an unstable territory in which the protocol for evaluation and judgment of the literary as well as visual arts underwent considerable and radical revision. It argues for the identification of a brief but discrete period lasting from the end of World War II to the closure of the decade, characterized by pronounced uncertainty and tension over what forms and practices should be understood as legitimate. It traces the onset of this moment of instability in relation to modernism, transatlantic exchange, and the institutions of culture, using the particular example of Saul Steinberg (1914–1999) and his relationship to the legacy of Piet Mondrian (1872–1944). Steinberg emigrated from Italy to the U.S. during the war, having been interned as a Jew under Mussolini. A trained architect, fluent in the visual grammar of European interwar modernism, Steinberg reinvented himself in postwar America as an artist and illustrator. Steinberg proved himself exceptionally capable of traversing high and low culture, commercial and restricted fields, by virtue of his ability to negotiate the cultural field. By examining his engagements with Mondrian and the New York art world of the late 1940s, we stand to learn something new not only about him, but about the instability of the field at that time. -

Pollock's Champions
Pollock’s Champions Peggy Guggenheim, Betty Parsons, and Sidney Janis Bobbi Coller, Ph.D., Guest Curator Pollock-Krasner House and Study Center, East Hampton, New York 31 July – 31 October 2014 1 Pollock’s Champions Bobbi Coller An artist’s relationship with his or her dealer is an unusual and complex partnership which, if successful, can be long-lasting and enriching. It involves a level of risk, trust, and mutual interest. However, it is much more than a business agreement; a good dealer is not only the key to an artist’s livelihood, but the source of support, encouragement and advice. Each of the three dealers who represented Jackson Pollock during his life believed in his talent, promoted and displayed his art, and befriended him. Those three strong and distinct personalities − Peggy Guggenheim, Betty Parsons and Sidney Janis − changed the face of the New York art world. To understand their pivotal influence, it is important to consider the nature of the art environment in New York City from the 1930s through the 1950s. Jackson Pollock arrived in New York in 1930 to study art. He first attended the Art Students League where he worked under the Regionalist painter Thomas Hart Benton, who became his mentor. Like most artists during the Great Depression, Pollock struggled to find work and was happy to be employed by the Federal Art Project (FAP) of the Works Progress Administration, a New Deal agency created in 1935 to provide paid jobs for artists. After working briefly on the mural division, he joined the easel division. In exchange for a wage of $103.40 a month (later reduced to $95.44), he was required to produce one painting every two months. -
