  • Rockwell Kent Collection
    THE ROCKWELL KENT COLLECTION THE ROCKWELL KENT COLLECTION Digitized by the Internet Archive in 2015 https://archive.org/details/rockwellkentcollOObowd THE ROCKWELL KENT COLLECTION BOWDOIN COLLEGE MUSEUM OF ART 1972 COPYRIGHT 1972 BY THE PRESIDENT AND TRUSTEES OF BOWDOIN COLLEGE BRUNSWICK, MAINE LIBRARY OF CONGRESS CATALOG CARD NUMBER 72-93429 Acknowledgments HIS little catalogue is dedicated to Sally Kent in gratitude for her abiding interest and considerable help in the for- mation of this collection. With the aid of Mrs. Kent, and the support of a generous donor, the Bowdoin College Museum of Art was able to obtain a representative collec- tion of the work of the late Rockwell Kent, consisting of six paintings and eighty-two drawings and watercolors. This collection, in addition to the John Sloan collection and the Winslow Homer collection already established here, will provide both the general public and researchers the opportunity to see and study in great detail certain important aspects of American art in the early twentieth century. Our appreciation is also extended to Mr. Richard Larcada of the Larcada Galleries, New York City, for his help during all phases of selection and acquisition. R.V.W. [5] Introduction HE paintings, drawings and watercolors in this collection pro- vide a varied cross section of Rockwell Kent's activities as painter, draftsman and illustrator. They range over a wide variety of style and technique, from finished paintings and watercolors to sketches and notations intended for use in the studio. As such, they provide an insight, otherwise unavailable, into the artist's creative processes and methods.

  • Rockwell Kent (American, 1882 – 1971) Starlight, 1930
    The Alabama Symphony Orchestra and the Birmingham Museum of Art present AMERICAN RHAPSODY A FESTIVAL OF MUSIC AND ART presented by January 27 - February 4 | AlabamaSymphony.org * Indicates that the work will be on view at the Birmingham Museum of Art during the American Festival Rockwell Kent (American, 1882 – 1971) Starlight, 1930. Wood engraving. Collection of the Art Fund, Inc. at the Birmingham Museum of Art; Gift of Roy Curtis Green Produced between two of Rockwell Kent’s several extended stays in Greenland, Starlight and its austere landscape suggests such Arctic climes. Because we cannot see the central figure’s face, we are encouraged to place ourselves in his position, and thus to follow his gaze off into the starry night sky and contemplate the vastness and sublime beauty of the universe. This device hints at Kent’s interest in capturing states or conditions that transcend the individual. He once stated, “I don’t want petty self-expression. I want the elemental, infinite thing; I want to paint the rhythm of eternity.” Richard Danielpour found inspiration for First Light, composed in 1988, from Robert Duncan’s poem Four Pictures of the Real Universe. It captures the same reverence for the infinity of the night sky, broken only by the dawn: “…chords that hold the stars in their courses / outfoldings of sound from the seed of first light.” 1 Abraham Rattner (American, 1893 – 1978), Design for the Memory, 1943. Oil on canvas. Collection of the Birmingham Museum of Art; Gift of Leslie and Elton B. Stephens, Jr. The son of Jewish immigrants, Abraham Rattner did not confine his artistic use of subjects and symbols to his own faith, but also drew upon Christianity to explore various themes, including current events.

PRISCILLA PATON WINSLOW HOMER S SEASCAPES: TRANSCENDENTAL SUBJECTS, POPULAR RESORTS, CRITICAL REACTIONS Winsloiu Homer, acknoivledged as a quintessen­ tial Yankee and one of America 's foremost nineteenth- centiuy artists, seems asformidable, stern, and ambigu­ ous as the rocky shores that fascinated him. Homer's reception by critics highlights the impossibility of sepa­ rating artistic achievement from the tastes andfashions of the society in which the artist worked. The Anystify- ingly blank" faces that critics abhorred in Homer's early farm figures became the distinctively attractive features of his later seascapes. Winslow Homer, who lived from 1836 to 1910, has long been acknowledged as a quintessential Yankee and one of the foremost American artists of the nineteenth century. Born in Boston and raised in Cambridge, at nineteen he became an apprentice in the printmaking firm of John H.
