    g g OAK KNOLL BOOKS www.oakknoll.com 310 Delaware Street, New Castle, DE 19720 Oak Knoll Books was founded in 1976 by Bob Fleck, a chemical engineer by training, who let his hobby get the best of him. Somehow, making oil refineries more efficient using mathematics and computers paled in comparison to the joy of handling books. Oak Knoll Press, the second part of the business, was established in 1978 as a logical extension of Oak Knoll Books. Today, Oak Knoll Books is a thriving company that maintains an inventory of about 25,000 titles. Our main specialties continue to be books about bibliography, book collecting, book design, book illustration, book selling, bookbinding, bookplates, children’s books, Delaware books, fine press books, forgery, graphic arts, libraries, literary criticism, marbling, papermaking, printing history, publishing, typography & type specimens, and writing & calligraphy — plus books about the history of all of these fields. Oak Knoll Books is a member of the International League of Antiquarian Booksellers (ILAB — about 2,000 dealers in 22 countries) and the Antiquarian Booksellers Association of America (ABAA — over 450 dealers in the US). Their logos appear on all of our antiquarian catalogues and web pages. These logos mean that we guarantee accurate descriptions and customer satisfaction. Our founder, Bob Fleck, has long been a proponent of the ethical principles embodied by ILAB & the ABAA. He has taken a leadership role in both organizations and is a past president of both the ABAA and ILAB. We are located in the historic colonial town of New Castle (founded 1651), next to the Delaware River and have an open shop for visitors.

  • Annual Report Fy2013
    INTERSECTIONS ANNUAL REPORT FY2013 FROM THE CHAIR OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES This year has been a time of robust innovation at The Phillips Collection; we are truly living the “experiment station” that founder Duncan Phillips spoke about so eloquently. The Phillips’s many advances in technology, for example, include a new website that provides users with easy access to our art, videos, and events. This effort has been complemented by a robust presence on multimedia and social media platforms, an insightful blog, and the Education team’s innovative virtual gallery talks on Twitter. The Laib Wax Room, dedicated to our own Caroline Macomber (whose delightful presence on our Board we deeply miss), opened in March as a space for meditation, much like the Rothko Room. The Phil- lips’s commitment to engaging with living artists of our day mirrors the collecting vision of Gifford Phillips, a dear friend of the museum who passed away in April. Partial funds for the beeswax room were raised through the crowdsourcing platform Indiegogo, allowing dozens of supporters to be part of Phillips history. Innovations at the Phillips are not just expressed through new technology. From April 12 to May 2, Phillips educator Rachel Goldberg led workshops in Pakistan for more than 375 Pakistani emerging artists, students, museum professionals, and children about the power of art to create social change. This extremely successful partnership with the US Department of State affirms the universal connective power of art; discus- sions are underway to expand the program. Extending the Phillips’s mission abroad to create an internation- al dialogue through art is a new partnership with Georgetown University’s School of Foreign Service.

    FY 15 ANNUAL REPORT August 1, 2014- July 31, 2015 1 THE PHILLIPS COLLECTION FY15 Annual Report THE PHILLIPS [IS] A MULTIDIMENSIONAL INSTITUTION THAT CRAVES COLOR, CONNECTEDNESS, A PIONEERING SPIRIT, AND PERSONAL EXPERIENCES 2 THE PHILLIPS COLLECTION FY15 Annual Report FROM THE CHAIRMAN AND DIRECTOR This is an incredibly exciting time to be involved with The Phillips Collection. Duncan Phillips had a deep understanding of the “joy-giving, life-enhancing influence” of art, and this connection between art and well-being has always been a driving force. Over the past year, we have continued to push boundaries and forge new paths with that sentiment in mind, from our art acquisitions to our engaging educational programming. Our colorful new visual identity—launched in fall 2014—grew out of the idea of the Phillips as a multidimensional institution, a museum that craves color, connectedness, a pioneering spirit, and personal experiences. Our programming continues to deepen personal conversations with works of art. Art and Wellness: Creative Aging, our collaboration with Iona Senior Services has continued to help participants engage personal memories through conversations and the creating of art. Similarly, our award-winning Contemplation Audio Tour encourages visitors to harness the restorative power of art by deepening their relationship with the art on view. With Duncan Phillips’s philosophies leading the way, we have significantly expanded the collection. The promised gift of 18 American sculptors’ drawings from Trustee Linda Lichtenberg Kaplan, along with the gift of 46 major works by contemporary German and Danish artists from Michael Werner, add significantly to new possibilities that further Phillips’s vision of vital “creative conversations” in our intimate galleries.

  • Dance History Session 9 Katherine Dunham
    Katherine Dunham Timeline 1909 A studio photograph of Katherine Dunham in the 1920s . Katherine Mary Dunham is born on 22 June 1909 in a Chicago hospital. Her father, Albert Millard Dunham, is black; her mother, Fanny June Dunham, is a woman of French-Canadian and American Indian heritage. Shortly after her birth, her parents take the infant Katherine to their home in Glen Ellyn, Illinois, a village about fifteen miles west of Chicago. She spends her early years there in the company of her brother, Albert Jr., who is six years older than she. They become devoted to each other. 1913 Fanny June Dunham, twenty years older than her husband, dies. Katherine and Albert Jr. are sent to live with their father's sister, Lulu, on the South Side of Chicago. 1915 Albert Sr. marries Annette Poindexter, and the children go to live with their father and stepmother in Joliet, Illinois. Their stepmother becomes a benevolent influence, but their father is a strict disciplinarian who lays down hard rules of behavior and dispenses physical punishment for infractions. 1921 Dunham's short story, "Come Back to Arizona," written when she was twelve years old, appears in volume 2 (August 1921) of The Brownies' Book, a periodical edited by W.E.B. Du Bois. 1922 In high school, Katherine Dunham joins the Terpsichorean Club and begins to learn a kind of free-style modern dance based on ideas of Jaques-Dalcroze and Rudolf von Laban. At fourteen, to help raise money for her church, she organizes a "cabaret party." She is the producer, director, and star of the entertainment.

    THE HISTORY OF PHOTOGRAPHY The Research Library of the Mack Lee Gallery 2,633 titles in circa 3,140 volumes Lee Gallery Photography Research Library Comprising over 3,100 volumes of monographs, exhibition catalogues and periodicals, the Lee Gallery Photography Research Library provides an overview of the history of photography, with a focus on the nineteenth century, in particular on the first three decades after the invention photography. 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. In addition, it is noteworthy that the library includes many small exhibition catalogues, which are often the only publication on specific photographers’ work, providing invaluable research material. 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. This is supplemented by concentrations of books on the photography of the American Civil War and the exploration of the American West. Photojournalism is also well represented, from war documentary to Farm Security Administration and LIFE photography.

Art holds an increasingly powerful and ENGINE THAT venerable position in modern culture, especially as our 21st-century world of smartphones and social media makes meaningful human connections and mutual understanding seem like scarce treasures. With that in mind, we at The IS THE PHILLIPS Phillips Collection continue to harness the might of our world-class collection to foster global conversations about art but also well-being, creativity, and civic COLLECTION responsibility. These are connections that may not seem linear to those who are unfamiliar with the Phillips, though they certainly carry on founder Duncan Phillips’s legacy. It was his desire for the museum to become, in his words, “an experiment station,” and over the past year we have boldly forged new ideas and arranged novel juxtapositions of painting, dance, and music. Our educational initiatives in the galleries and in DC public schools have catalyzed learning across seemingly disparate disciplines such as the sciences and humanities; and our work with Georgetown University’s School of Foreign Service reveals new opportunities for cultural exchange and diplomacy. We continue to expand Duncan Phillips's vision of “creative conversations” today through our international exhibitions, vibrant programs, and an increasingly diverse range of disciplines and partnerships.
