Herrold www.mam.org 3 President’s Report The state and the Milwaukee community’s pride in the Milwaukee Art Museum continues to flourish since our opening more than two years ago. The Museum is a cornerstone of Milwaukee’s cultural life and an icon for the city itself. We continue to gain attention from around the country and the world—the Museum was named among the “New Wonders of the World” by Condé Nast Traveler magazine, and People magazine named the Milwaukee Art Museum one of three “New American Beauties,”and “the city’s instant tourist attraction.”During a recent visit to London, my wife Donna and I were thrilled to see a banner of the Milwaukee Art Museum outside the Victoria and Albert Museum; our Calatrava-designed building was a featured work in the Zoomorphic architecture exhibition. We realize that our well-being as an institution is based on our continuing outreach to the community and beyond. Exhibitions and programming are varied to interest a diverse visitor base. Last year, African Sculpture: Bamana Art from Mali and Graciela Iturbide: Images of the Spirit sought and drew African-American and Latino visitors to the Museum. Last spring, we launched our first public forum program with a panel discussion of public art, reaffirming the Museum as a place for lively discussion about arts-related issues. The Museum partnered with the arts community, teaming with groups such as the Milwaukee Symphony, Ko-Thi Dance Company and Present Music to increase our reach and vary our offerings. The year ended with the Harley-Davidson 100th Anniversary, a community “happening” in which the Museum played a key role. This was the year of Leonardo da Vinci and the Splendor of Poland, which drew audience and attention

  • Napoleon: the Man Behind the Myth
    2019 VI Napoleon: The Man Behind the Myth Adam Zamoyski London: William Collins, 2018 Review by: Jonathan North Review: Napoleon: The Man Behind the Myth Napoleon: The Man Behind the Myth. By Adam Zamoyski. London: William Collins, 2018. ISBN 978-0-008-11607-1. xxiii + 752 pp. £30.00. he pharmacist Pierre-Irénée Jacob arrived in Madrid on 7 April 1809. The French had occupied the capital and were attempting to conquer the rest of the Iberian Peninsula in a war that would drain T blood and treasure from Napoleon’s empire for the next six years. The atmosphere in the city was strange and strained. On the one hand, the emperor Napoleon’s power seemed to have reached new heights and his sway, with an opulent Paris at its centre, extended from Galicia in Spain to Galicia in Poland. On the other, here was a land mired in an unnecessary conflict so brutal and costly that it would inspire Goya’s Disasters of War. Jacob, who had seen plenty of disasters on his way to Madrid, was relieved to have arrived and hurried to meet with his superior, Charles Jean Laubert. They were soon involved in a lively discussion about the man who had sent them to Spain. In his Journal et itinéraire de dix années de campagne, Jacob admitted that “the qualities of the emperor could not convince me to like him as a person,” and confessed that “his political mistakes, especially after 1808, had turned me against him.” Then Laubert, “after having praised some of the achievements of this extraordinary and highly intelligent man,” surprised Jacob by suddenly exclaiming “what a monster, my friend, what a monster.” In a sense, opinions on Napoleon have not moved on much since that frank exchange.

  • When Fear Is Substituted for Reason: European and Western Government Policies Regarding National Security 1789-1919
    WHEN FEAR IS SUBSTITUTED FOR REASON: EUROPEAN AND WESTERN GOVERNMENT POLICIES REGARDING NATIONAL SECURITY 1789-1919 Norma Lisa Flores A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY December 2012 Committee: Dr. Beth Griech-Polelle, Advisor Dr. Mark Simon Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Michael Brooks Dr. Geoff Howes Dr. Michael Jakobson © 2012 Norma Lisa Flores All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Dr. Beth Griech-Polelle, Advisor Although the twentieth century is perceived as the era of international wars and revolutions, the basis of these proceedings are actually rooted in the events of the nineteenth century. When anything that challenged the authority of the state – concepts based on enlightenment, immigration, or socialism – were deemed to be a threat to the status quo and immediately eliminated by way of legal restrictions. Once the façade of the Old World was completely severed following the Great War, nations in Europe and throughout the West started to revive various nineteenth century laws in an attempt to suppress the outbreak of radicalism that preceded the 1919 revolutions. What this dissertation offers is an extended understanding of how nineteenth century government policies toward radicalism fostered an environment of increased national security during Germany’s 1919 Spartacist Uprising and the 1919/1920 Palmer Raids in the United States. Using the French Revolution as a starting point, this study allows the reader the opportunity to put events like the 1848 revolutions, the rise of the First and Second Internationals, political fallouts, nineteenth century imperialism, nativism, Social Darwinism, and movements for self-government into a broader historical context.

  • 1 Annual Review 2015-2016
    1 │Annual Review 2015-2016 Each day, thousands of children head to schools across our community, each filled with the potential to realize his or her own American Dream. For some, that dream is securing a job that can provide a safe home and support a family. For others, it is building a meaningful career or starting their own business. And some simply want to break the chains of poverty in order to create a better life for themselves and their family. The American Dream was described as that dream of a land in which life should be better, richer, and fuller for everyone, with opportunity for each according to ability and achievement. Regardless of how the American Dream is defined, it can only be achieved through the combination of opportunity, ability, and inspiration. For every student who lacks a basic economic understanding, a mentor to inspire, or sees only dim opportunities… the American Dream fades. And the opportunity cost impacts every aspect of our society. Since 1941, Junior Achievement has been working in our Wisconsin communities to ensure that young people have the skills and confidence to successfully transition into an evolving economy. From its initial after-school JA Company program that provided teens with a first -hand experience in business to today’s broad spectrum of academic based K-12 programs, Junior Achievement has continued to transform its approach to meet the changing needs of students, educators and employers. Each step of the way, generous community partners have fueled this impact with critical financial and volunteer resources. Today, as we face unprecedented skilled workforce shortages and an increasingly complex personal finance environment, the need for Junior Achievement programs has never been greater.

    August 2020 The Washington Greater Seattle Chapter SDC Founded in 1969 Volume 50 Number 8 Not much to report this month either. Can- celled seems to be the slogan these days The editor is continuing on his 51 project, but going slow. Got the trunk lid straightened out and painted. I had a lot more small dents and imperfections than I realized. It is on the car but still having a hinge problem. It seems that is common with worn hinges. For now I put it aside to work on another day. Most of my time has been taken up with things around the house. Like fence repair to keep deer and rab- bits out of the garden. We really prefer to eat the vegetables ourselves. And then there was pressure washing and painting decks and patios. Not any of my fun projects. The painting was hired out to Greta, and she did a good job on the deck. 4 Gallons worth.
