Reviewed by: Robin Veder, Associate Professor of Humanities and Art History/Visual Culture, Penn State Harrisburg, [email protected]. What is an impressionist garden? Does “impressionist” describe the painting or its painter, the garden or its owner? The Artist’s Garden: American Impressionism and the Garden Movement, an exhibition and catalogue produced by the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts (PAFA), traces these permutations through networks of American artists, gardeners, artist-gardeners, and gardener-artists. The project explores “the horticultural impulse in American impressionist art” (7), as inspired by French impressionism and motivated by the concerns of the Progressive era suburban white middle class. It focuses on New England and the mid-Atlantic region at the turn of the twentieth century. Predominantly a display of oil paintings, the installation at PAFA also included photographs, rare books, works on paper, autochromes, garden sculpture, furniture, and live plants.

This course examines women artists, their quest for professionalization, their interactions with a variety of media, their representational strategies in the arts, and their negotiations within personal lives as they confront the social, cultural, and institutional changes in these decades. We will think historically and historiographically about these issues in American art by looking at interpretive literature on women artists alongside a series of primary documents and case studies. We will examine the different ways in which art historians and historians might formulate their questions about women and art. We will also take a week to think through some theoretical issues. Goals. The central work of the course is a research paper. Our library session will help to master research databases in art history. Our discussions will focus as much on how our scholars did their research and conceptualized their projects as on their findings. Short papers will develop critical reading and writing skills. The multi-stage research/writing process will help you with forming your topic and organizing your claims along with the actual writing/writing process. Required Texts. Wanda Corn, with Charlene G.

Alter had been assembling the collection since the 1980s after realizing that work by women artists was severely underrepresented in most art museums, and had intended from the start that the collection would one day go to a museum. PAFA’s Linda Lee Alter Collection of Art by Women spans the 1910s to the first decade of the 21st century. All media are represented, including ceramics, photography, painting, sculpture, assemblage, as well as works on paper. More than 150 artists are represented – from the well-known to the underappreciated – including works by artists not previously in PAFA’s collection such as Louise Bourgeois, Kiki Smith, Joan Brown, Viola Frey, Ana Mendieta, Christina Ramberg, and Beatrice Wood (among others), as well as complementary works by artists already in PAFA’s collection such as Alice Neel, Louise Nevelson, Gertrude Abercrombie, Edna Andrade, Sue Coe, Janet Fish, Sarah McEneaney, Gladys Nilsson, Elizabeth Osborne, Betye Saar, and Nancy Spero.
