  • Free Land Attracted Many Colonists to Texas in 1840S 3-29-92 “No Quitting Sense” We Claim Is Typically Texas
    “Between the Creeks” Gwen Pettit This is a compilation of weekly newspaper columns on local history written by Gwen Pettit during 1986-1992 for the Allen Leader and the Allen American in Allen, Texas. Most of these articles were initially written and published, then run again later with changes and additions made. I compiled these articles from the Allen American on microfilm at the Allen Public Library and from the Allen Leader newspapers provided by Mike Williams. Then, I typed them into the computer and indexed them in 2006-07. Lois Curtis and then Rick Mann, Managing Editor of the Allen American gave permission for them to be reprinted on April 30, 2007, [email protected]. Please, contact me to obtain a free copy on a CD. I have given a copy of this to the Allen Public Library, the Harrington Library in Plano, the McKinney Library, the Allen Independent School District and the Lovejoy School District. Tom Keener of the Allen Heritage Guild has better copies of all these photographs and is currently working on an Allen history book. Keener offices at the Allen Public Library. Gwen was a longtime Allen resident with an avid interest in this area’s history. Some of her sources were: Pioneering in North Texas by Capt. Roy and Helen Hall, The History of Collin County by Stambaugh & Stambaugh, The Brown Papers by George Pearis Brown, The Peters Colony of Texas by Seymour V. Conner, Collin County census & tax records and verbal history from local long-time residents of the county. She does not document all of her sources.

  • This Book Is a Compendium of New Wave Posters. It Is Organized Around the Designers (At Last!)
    “This book is a compendium of new wave posters. It is organized around the designers (at last!). It emphasizes the key contribution of Eastern Europe as well as Western Europe, and beyond. And it is a very timely volume, assembled with R|A|P’s usual flair, style and understanding.” –CHRISTOPHER FRAYLING, FROM THE INTRODUCTION 2 artbook.com French New Wave A Revolution in Design Edited by Tony Nourmand. Introduction by Christopher Frayling. The French New Wave of the 1950s and 1960s is one of the most important movements in the history of film. Its fresh energy and vision changed the cinematic landscape, and its style has had a seminal impact on pop culture. The poster artists tasked with selling these Nouvelle Vague films to the masses—in France and internationally—helped to create this style, and in so doing found themselves at the forefront of a revolution in art, graphic design and photography. French New Wave: A Revolution in Design celebrates explosive and groundbreaking poster art that accompanied French New Wave films like The 400 Blows (1959), Jules and Jim (1962) and The Umbrellas of Cherbourg (1964). Featuring posters from over 20 countries, the imagery is accompanied by biographies on more than 100 artists, photographers and designers involved—the first time many of those responsible for promoting and portraying this movement have been properly recognized. This publication spotlights the poster designers who worked alongside directors, cinematographers and actors to define the look of the French New Wave. Artists presented in this volume include Jean-Michel Folon, Boris Grinsson, Waldemar Świerzy, Christian Broutin, Tomasz Rumiński, Hans Hillman, Georges Allard, René Ferracci, Bruno Rehak, Zdeněk Ziegler, Miroslav Vystrcil, Peter Strausfeld, Maciej Hibner, Andrzej Krajewski, Maciej Zbikowski, Josef Vylet’al, Sandro Simeoni, Averardo Ciriello, Marcello Colizzi and many more.

    Case 5:11-cv-00360-OLG-JES-XR Document 1622 Filed 03/18/19 Page 1 of 8 IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE WESTERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS SAN ANTONIO DIVISION SHANNON PEREZ, et al., Plaintiffs, CIVIL ACTION NO. v. SA-11-CA-360-OLG-JES-XR [Lead case] STATE OF TEXAS, et al., Defendants. DEFENDANTS’ REPLY TO MALC AND TLRTF’S RESPONSES REGARDING REMEDY FOR STATE HOUSE DISTRICT HD90 On February 23, 2019, the Court ordered Plaintiffs “to respond to Defendants’ advisory concerning the use of Plan H328 and notify the Court of any alternative proposals” by March 11, 2019. ECF No. 1619. On that date, TLRTF and MALC independently submitted their own proposed plans. ECF Nos. 1620, 1621. TLRTF resubmitted Plan H407, a proposed remedial plan that seeks to return HD90 to its configuration under Plan H283 and remove the Como neighborhood from HD90. But the Court has already considered and rejected Plan H407. ECF No. 1600. The Shaw violations found by the Court “rest on changes made to HD90 after Como was moved back into HD90.” Perez v. Abbott, 267 F. Supp. 3d 750, 794 (W.D. Tex. 2017); see also id. at 792 (finding racial considerations behind “changes made between Plan H328 and Plan H342”). Plan H407 is therefore inconsistent with the Court’s Case 5:11-cv-00360-OLG-JES-XR Document 1622 Filed 03/18/19 Page 2 of 8 instruction that any remedy in HD90 “must respect the legislative choices made in 2013, except to remedy the constitutional violations.” ECF No.

  • The Contemporary Austin Brings Exhibition by Artist Abraham Cruzvillegas to Its Downtown Museum Location, the Jones Center on Congress Avenue
    CONTACT: Nicole Chism Griffin, PR – The Contemporary Austin [email protected] / 512 458 8191 x 142 (P) / 206 947 2312 (C) THE CONTEMPORARY AUSTIN BRINGS EXHIBITION BY ARTIST ABRAHAM CRUZVILLEGAS TO ITS DOWNTOWN MUSEUM LOCATION, THE JONES CENTER ON CONGRESS AVENUE Bridging sculpture, conceptual art, performance, and community engagement, Abraham Cruzvillegas: Hi, how are you, Gonzo? is co-organized by The Contemporary Austin and the Aspen Art Museum. After its presentation in Austin, the exhibition will travel to Aspen in fall 2019. Abraham Cruzvillegas: Hi, how are you, Gonzo? March 30 – July 14, 2019 MARCH 18, 2019, AUSTIN, TEXAS – From March 30 through July 14, 2019, The Contemporary Austin—led by Executive Director and CEO Louis Grachos—will present an exhibition by artist Abraham Cruzvillegas (born 1968 in Mexico City) at its Jones Center location, 700 Congress Avenue in downtown Austin. Abraham Cruzvillegas: Hi, how are you, Gonzo? will fill both floors of the museum with site-specific, mixed media work in which recycled materials are transformed into abstract sculptural objects. These objects are then used as platforms to engage other artists, community members, and museum visitors as active participants in the artworks, allowing for creativity, experimentation, and social dialogue through collaborative “activations” that complete and transform the works on view. The exhibition is co-organized by Heather Pesanti, Chief Curator & Director of Curatorial Affairs at The Contemporary Austin, and Heidi Zuckerman, the Nancy and Bob Magoon CEO and Director of the Aspen Art Museum, where the exhibition will be on view from October 25, 2019, through January 2020. Abraham Cruzvillegas’s dynamic artistic practice begins with the concept of autoconstrucción—loosely defined as “self-construction,” an idea inspired by the artist’s home outside Mexico City and his interest in transformation, collaboration, and improvisation.

  • Hyde Park: an Early Suburban Development in Austin, Texas (1891- 1941)
    HYDE PARK: AN EARLY SUBURBAN DEVELOPMENT IN AUSTIN, TEXAS (1891- 1941) Hyde Park, one of the most desirable neighborhoods of modern Austin, is nearing the hundredth anniversary of its founding. The legacy of its settlement and growth remind us of the important role Hyde Park has played in the history of Austin; a role which can be better understood and evaluated following a discussion of the city's development. Austin has served as Texas' seat of government since shortly after the city's founding in 1838. The city was established as the result of an internal struggle among the leaders of the newly formed Republic of Texas, which gained independence from Mexico in 1836. Many believed Houston or some other established town should be selected as the capital of Texas. Intense competition and rivalry developed for that designation and the attendant financial and political opportunities it would provide. As a compromise, founding fathers decided that the creation of an entirely new community was the most appropriate solution. As president of the Republic, Mirabeau B. Lamer selected Waterloo, small dispersed settlement on the Colorado River, as the new capital of Texas. Edwin Waller surveyed the townsite, including a grandly sited capitol square atop a hill that terminated a broad thoroughfare (Congress Avenue) extending from the river. Named in honor of Stephen F. Austin, the town became reality as the first lots were sold on August 1, 1839. Despite the isolated location near the frontier, the designation fueled the new capital's growth and its population increased to 856 by 1840. Numerous government offices opened providing the foundation for the local economy.
