The Susie Tompkins Buell Collection PRESS RELEASE Phillips Announces Highlights from Passion & Humanity: The Susie Tompkins Buell Collection Works by Edward Weston, Tina Modotti, Edward Steichen, Dorothea Lange, and Margaret Bourke-White to Lead the Auction Margaret Bourke-White Flood Refugees, Louisville, Kentucky, 1937 Estimate: $150,000-250,000 NEW YORK – 28 FEBRUARY 2019 – Phillips is delighted to announce the sale of Passion & Humanity: The Susie Tompkins Buell Collection, an auction of 58 lots taking place on 4 April at 5pm EDT, following the seasonal April Photographs sale. Encapsulating two major photographic themes of the first half of the 20th century – Modernism and humanism – the collection includes many influential female photographers, not only Modotti, Lange and Bourke-White, but also Imogen Cunningham, Consuelo Kanaga, and Alma Lavenson, among others. Vanessa Hallett, Phillips’ Deputy Chairman, Americas, and Worldwide Head of Photographs, said, “Ms. Buell’s passion for the medium of photography helped establish the market for many of the photographers in her collection, and it is this passion and commitment that we will celebrate in this auction. The quality of the collection, its aesthetic and thematic unities, and the fineness of its individual parts are a testament to her vision and determination. We look forward to sharing these works with collectors around the world.” Highlights from Passion & Humanity: The Susie Tompkins Buell Collection The sale brings together a selection of masterworks by Edward Weston and Tina Modotti whose love affair in Mexico in the 1920s sparked a period of exceptional creative output for both photographers. Weston’s evolution as a Modernist began during this time. Circus Tent, 1924, estimated at $400,000-600,000, shows the abandonment of his earlier Pictorialist style in favor of a growing interest in formalism, evident in the abstracted subject and the extreme angle from which it was taken. In Palm Trunk, Cuernavaca, 1925, estimate $400,000-600,000, this exploration of perspective is taken even further as Weston fully isolates the towering palm trunk against the sky. Modotti’s exceptional Telephone Wires, also taken in 1925 and estimated at $250,000- 350,000, is the ultimate Modernist composition of vertical and horizontal line Edward Weston Circus Tent, 1924 and demonstrates the extent to which she Estimate: $400,000-600,000 and Weston approached different subjects with a similar aesthetic, each to their own unique success. Her sublime Roses, Mexico, 1925, offered at $300,000-500,000, shows her mastery of the photographic still-life. Ms. Buell made market history when she purchased this Tina Modotti print at auction in 1991 for $165,000, setting a new price record not only for Modotti Telephone Wires, 1924 Estimate: $250,000-350,000 but for a photograph at auction. ln Campesinos, 1926, estimate $150,000-250,000, Modotti’s synthesis of the Modernist preoccupation with shape and form and her burgeoning interest in the plight of the Mexican workers is fully realized. Here, Modernism becomes the visual language of her political activism, a central theme that is evident throughout much of her work. Cementing their storied and complex relationship are portraits of each taken by the other: Weston’s frontal and intimate portrait Tina Modotti, 1921, estimate $200,000-300,000 and Modotti’s Edward Weston with Camera, circa 1924, estimated at $25,000-35,000. Tina Modotti Edward Weston Roses, Mexico, 1925 Palm Trunk, Cuernavaca, 1925 Estimate: $300,000-500,000 Estimate: $400,000-600,000 Taken just before the outbreak of World War I, Edward Steichen’s Heavy Roses, Voulangis, France, 1914, is one of photographer’s most celebrated works and will be offered at $400,000-600,000. This breathtaking palladium print, incorporating Steichen’s masterful use of solarization, imbues the roses with the weight of the impending conflict. Dorothea Lange and Consuela Kanaga are two photographers with significant representation throughout the collection. Exquisite prints of Lange’s White Angel Breadline, 1933, Edward Steichen estimated at $100,000-150,000, and Heavy Roses, Voulangis, France, 1914 Migrant Mother, Nipomo, California, Estimate: $400,000-600,000 1936, estimated at $100,000-150,000 will be offered alongside Farm Security Administration images from across the country, highlighting the breadth of her work and the sympathetic manner with which she captured the devastation and struggle of a generation. A Sign of the Times–Mended Stockings, Stenographer, San Francisco, 1934, estimated at $60,000- 80,000, an image of a woman’s heavily torn Dorothea Lange but carefully repaired stockings, embodies a White Angel Breadline, 1933 central theme of the collection: the Estimate: $100,000-150,000 perseverance of women—and by extension the human spirit—in the face of hardship. Kanaga’s moving portraits of African-Americans, such as Profile of a Young Girl, from the Tennessee Series, 1948, estimate $15,000-25,000, present her subjects as individuals, outside the context of class or racial disparity. Other highlights include Imogen Cunningham’s Calla, 1920, estimated at $250,000-350,000; Margaret Bourke-White’s Flood Refugees, Louisville, Kentucky, 1937, estimated at $150,000- 250,000; and Alma Lavenson’s Glass Study, 1931, estimated at $20,000-30,000. Consuelo Kanaga Untitled (Profile of a Young Girl, from the Tennessee series), 1948 Estimate: $15,000-25,000 The Collector While primarily known for co-founding Esprit and The North Face, as well as for her political activism and philanthropy, Susie Tompkins Buell has played an equally large role in the photography market. Ms. Buell developed a reputation as a market maker at a crucial time in the photography world, when the medium was just beginning to come into its own, and evolve from a “collectible” into a mature and fully-formed feature of the fine-art market. Susie Tompkins Buell’s early engagement with the medium in the 1980s and 1990s shaped the market in the decades that followed and brought a new awareness to photography. The proceeds from the sale of these photographs will benefit charitable causes. Ms. Buell said, “I bought these photographs thirty years ago, not as an investment, but as objects of astounding beauty that spoke to me. I didn’t acquire them only because they were stunning works of art, but because they woke me up and gave me a sense of responsibility. They helped me find grace in my actions and commit myself to ongoing social problems. They empowered me to recognize and become active about the issues I care so deeply about. As the world becomes so challenged by humanitarian crises, I feel the resources from these photographs can be put to work in ways that will help those involved in the struggles we face.” Highlights Tour: 5-7 March, London | 12-14 March, Paris | 27 March - 4 April, New York Auction: Thursday, 4 April, 5pm Location: 450 Park Avenue, New York Click here for more information. ### ABOUT PHILLIPS Phillips is a leading global platform for buying and selling 20th and 21st century art and design.

Includes correspondence with Edward Weston and other photographers; reviews and announcements of photography exhibitions, including two of Group f/64, of which Noskowiak was member; clippings about Noskowiak, Edward Weston, her photography and other topics; negatives and contact prints made by Noskowiak, and reference prints made by the CCP staff. Quantity/ Extent 10 linear feet Language of Materials English Biographical/ Historical Note Sonya Noskowiak (1900–1975) began her photographic career as studio assistant to Johan Hagemeyer in 1925 and within less than a decade exhibited alongside Ansel Adams, Edward Weston, and Imogen Cunningham. Like her Group f/64 counterparts, she produced sharp-focus studies of natural and man-made objects, which emphasized photographic presentation rather than subject matter. Following an intense period as a creative photographer, Noskowiak maintained a portrait studio and pursued documentary photography. Noskowiak was born in Leipzig, Germany, and spent her childhood years in Chile, Panama, and California, as her father sought employment in gardening and landscape design. At age 19 she moved to San Francisco, enrolled in secretarial school, and then worked at photographer and horticulturalist Johan Hagemeyer’s Los Angeles studio.

Oba San Francisco, California Fall Term 2017 Copyright by Richard J. Oba 2017 CERTIFICATION OF APPROVAL I certify that I have read “The Tanforan Memorial Project: How Art and History Intersected” by Richard J. Oba, and that in my opinion this work meets the criteria for approving a thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree Master of Arts in Humanities at San Francisco State University. I Saul Steier, Associate Professor, Humanities “The Tanforan Memorial Project: How Art and History Intersected” Richard J. Oba San Francisco 2017 ABSTRACT Many Japanese Americans realize that their incarceration during WWII was unjust and patently unconstitutional. But many other American citizens are often unfamiliar with this dark chapter of American history. The work of great visual artists like Ansel Adams, Dorothea Lange, Chiura Obata, Mine Okubo, and others, who bore witness to these events convey their horror with great immediacy and human compassion. Their work allows the American society to visualize how the Japanese Americans were denied their constitutional rights in the name of national security. Without their visual images, the chronicling of this historical event would have faded into obscurity. I certify that the Abstract is a correct representation of the content of this Thesis ACKNOWLEDGEMENT I wish to acknowledge the support and love of my wife, Sidney Suzanne Pucek, May 16, 1948- October 16, 2016.

Strengths of the Lee Library include American, British, and French photography and photographers. The publications on French 19th- century material (numbering well over 100), include many uncommon specialized catalogues from French regional museums and galleries, on the major photographers of the time, such as Eugène Atget, Daguerre, Gustave Le Gray, Charles Marville, Félix Nadar, Charles Nègre, and others.

The major developments and evolutions in the history of photography are covered, including numerous titles on the pioneers of photography and photographic processes such as daguerreotypes, calotypes, and the invention of negative-positive photography. The Lee Gallery Library has great depth in the Pictorialist Photography aesthetic movement, the Photo- Secession and the circle of Alfred Stieglitz, as evidenced by the numerous titles on American photography of the early 20th-century.

    For issue: 17 April 2018 Dorothea Lange: Politics of Seeing Barbican Art Gallery, London, UK 22 June – 2 September 2018 Media View: Thursday 21 June, 10am – 1pm #dorothealange @barbicancentre Important note: The exhibition Dorothea Lange: Politics of Seeing, situated in the lower galleries of Barbican Art Gallery, is on at the same time as Vanessa Winship: And Time Folds on show in the upper galleries. The ticket gains entry to both exhibitions. The exhibition is organized by the Oakland Museum of California with support from the Oakland Museum Women’s Board and the Henry Luce Foundation. The European presentation has been produced in collaboration with Barbican Art Gallery, London and Jeu de Paume, Paris. This summer, Barbican Art Gallery stages the first UK survey of the American documentary photographer Dorothea Lange (1895–1965), one of the most influential photographers of the 20th century. A formidable woman of unparalleled vigour and resilience, the exhibition charts Lange’s outstanding photographic vision from her early studio portraits of San Francisco’s bourgeoisie to her celebrated Farm Security Administration work (1935–1939) that captured the devastating impact of the Great Depression on the American population. The show features the iconic Migrant Mother as well as rarely seen photographs of the internment of Japanese-Americans during the Second World War and several post-war series documenting the changing face of the social and physical landscape of 1950s America, including a collaboration with fellow photographer Pirkle Jones. Working in urban and rural contexts across America and beyond, Lange focused her lens on human suffering and hardship to create compassionate and piercing portraits of people and places in the hope of effecting or influencing social and political reform.

Review of Road Trip: Photography of the American West 1 Review of Road Trip: Photography of the American West Galerie des Beaux-Arts, Bordeaux, 28 Aug. - 10 Nov. 2014 Daniel Huber 1 Last year saw the half-century anniversary of the Sister Cities partnership between Los Angeles and Bordeaux. As part of the celebrations in Bordeaux, the cityʼs Beaux-Arts Museum hosted the exhibition Road Trip: Photography of the American West, borrowed from the permanent collection of the Wallis Annenberg Photography Department at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA).1 A selection of one video projection and 81 photographs by 55 artists were on view at the Beaux-Arts Gallery between 28 August and 10 November 2014. These works of art had never been presented in France, although some of the great names of American photography were exhibited in the 2001 show Made in USA at the same Gallery in Bordeaux and in recent collective or solo exhibitions elsewhere in France, as summarized by Sophie Barthélémy, Director of the Beaux-Arts Museum of Bordeaux, in her foreword to the exhibition catalogue.
