At the same time, we explore the works of artists who did not retain the renown they enjoyed during their lifetimes and who fell into obscurity. But obscurity is not necessarily forever, and as cycles of taste have changed, these once-forgotten artists and their largely unknown works have re-surfaced to startle us today.

    SCMS 2011 MEDIA CITIZENSHIP • Conference Program and Screening Synopses The Ritz-Carlton, New Orleans • March 10–13, 2011 • SCMS 2011 Letter from the President Welcome to New Orleans and the fabulous Ritz-Carlton Hotel! On behalf of the Board of Directors, I would like to extend my sincere thanks to our members, professional staff, and volunteers who have put enormous time and energy into making this conference a reality. This is my final conference as SCMS President, a position I have held for the past four years. Prior to my presidency, I served two years as President-Elect, and before that, three years as Treasurer. As I look forward to my new role as Past-President, I have begun to reflect on my near decade-long involvement with the administration of the Society. Needless to say, these years have been challenging, inspiring, and expansive. We have traveled to and met in numerous cities, including Atlanta, London, Minneapolis, Vancouver, Chicago, Philadelphia, and Los Angeles. We celebrated our 50th anniversary as a scholarly association. We planned but unfortunately were unable to hold our 2009 conference at Josai University in Tokyo. We mourned the untimely death of our colleague and President-Elect Anne Friedberg while honoring her distinguished contributions to our field. We planned, developed, and launched our new website and have undertaken an ambitious and wide-ranging strategic planning process so as to better position SCMS to serve its members and our discipline today and in the future. At one of our first strategic planning sessions, Justin Wyatt, our gifted and hardworking consultant, asked me to explain to the Board why I had become involved with the work of the Society in the first place.

  • Celebrating Andrew Wyeth the American Artist’S Centennial Is Being Honored with Two Major Retrospectives of His Work
    along the way Celebrating Andrew Wyeth The American artist’s centennial is being honored with two major retrospectives of his work. Andrew Wyeth may have been a favorite of U.S. presidents. In 1963, he became the first painter to receive the Presidential Medal of Freedom when John F. Kennedy bestowed the honor. Richard Nixon once sponsored a White House exhibition of works by the Pennsylvania- and Maine- based artist, and both Bushes honored Wyeth, with the Congressional Gold Medal in 1990 and the National Medal of the Arts in 2007. At the other end of the spectrum, comic- strip character Snoopy owned a Wyeth that he displayed prominently in his doghouse. In between, the artist was alternately lauded and dismissed by critics but remained a perennial commercial favorite. This year marks the centennial of Wyeth’s birth, and two major museum retrospectives have been assembled NORTH CAROLINA MUSEUM OF ART, RALEIGH ART, OF MUSEUM CAROLINA NORTH ©ANDREW WYETH/ARTISTS RIGHTS SOCIETY (ARS), RIGHTS WYETH/ARTISTS ©ANDREW for the occasion.

    Sunriver Books & Music March 2018 Newsletter Sunriverbooks.com 541-593-2525 Saturday March 31st at 5:00 PM Jennifer Haupt will give a slide show presentation on her moving novel, In The Shadow of 10,000 Hills. Jennifer Haupt spent 25 years as a journalist writing for such pres- tigious publications as O’ Oprah’s magazine, The Seattle Times and Psychology Today. In 2006 she traveled to Rwanda to interview survivors of the genocide. From her experiences she was inspired to write this uplifting novel that intersects the story of a young American woman, Rachel, and the people she meets in Rwanda who will ultimately show her the meaning of grace and home. Lillian Carlson met Henry Shepard at a speech by Martin Luther King Jr., the attraction was instant. Henry was at the event as a newspaper photographer, trying to get his career going, passionate about photog- raphy. Later, the shot he took of Lillian would grace the cover of Life magazine. But in the 1960’s the world was not ready to embrace a rela- tionship between a white man and a black woman. They moved on, Henry married his high school sweetheart, Merilee, and had a daughter, Rachel. The marriage was not happy, Merilee did not understand Henry’s artistic passions, she wanted stability. When Rachel was 8 Henry learned that Lillian had moved to Africa, opening a small orphanage in Rwanda. He had a few dollars set aside and decid- ed he must take this chance, go to Africa and try to prove he could make it as a serious photographer.
