  • Thomas Nast 1840–1902
    Name _____________________________ Class _________________ Date __________________ Life at the Turn of the 20th Century Biography Thomas Nast 1840–1902 WHY HE MADE HISTORY Thomas Nast has been called the father of modern American political cartooning. He is best known for his cartoons exposing the corruption of Boss Tweed’s political machine. As you read the biography below, think about how Thomas Nast influenced public opinion. How did he use images to communicate? CORBIS © By the late 1800s the governments of most major cities were run by political machines. These informal groups of professional politicians controlled local government. Often these politicians were corrupt and abused the public trust. Thomas Nast, a political cartoonist, exposed the corruption of one of the biggest political machines of his day. His drawings led to the downfall of Boss Tweed’s Tammany Hall political machine. Thomas Nast was born in Germany in 1840, the son of a musician. His family immigrated to the U.S. and settled in New York City when he was six years old. Nast studied art at the National Academy of Design. At the age of 15, he was hired as a staff artist for Frank Leslie’s Illustrated Newspaper. By the time he was 18, Nast was a freelance artist for Harper’s Weekly and the New York Illustrated News. In 1862 Harper’s Weekly hired Nast to draw images of the Civil War. His editors hoped he would draw realistic battle scenes. Instead, Nast drew images that supported the Union and opposed slavery. Nast distorted and exaggerated the physical traits of his subjects to convey strong social and political messages.

    NO LAUGHING MATTER: XENOPHOBIA AND ANTI-RADICALISM IN EARLY AMERICAN POLITICAL CARTOONS by BIANCA RENEE BISSON A THESIS Presented to the Department of Political Science and the Robert D. Clark Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Arts June 2014 An Abstract of the Thesis of Bianca Renee Bisson for the degree of Bachelor of Arts in the Department of Political Science to be taken June 2014 Title: No Laughing Matter: Xenophobia and Anti-Radicalism in Early American Political Cartoons Approved: __d_---l ~--~--------- Anita Chari While political cartoons have a reputation for upholding the tenants of democracy and freedom, the editorial images of the late 19th century and early 20th century show quite the contrary. In fact, they promote elements of early American life such as racism, misogyny and anti-radicalism, and make negative statements about the aspects of society that did not conform to conservative White Anglo-Saxon Protestantism. [j Acknowledgements First of all, I would like to thank my thesis advisors, Professors Anita Chari, Alison Gash, and Casey Shoop. Professor Chari is a wonderful instructor, whose class on radical political theory motivated me to continually think critically about the world. Professor Gash teaches in a captivating way that drove me to question the status quo from a legal perspective. Professor Shoop, though I have not had the chance to take a class from him, made me feel at ease and comfortable despite the often high demands of the Clark Honors College. I would also like to thank my parents for supporting my education from afar and my friends for creating a safe and warm environment to come home to at the end of a long day of studying.

  • 10Th Annual MARIN FAIR PLEIN AIR
    Adult Department – Special One Day Contest 10th Annual MARIN FAIR PLEIN AIR Coordinator: Ellen Campbell, Novato Judges: Tim Brody, Rohnert Park Born into a musical family, Tim began clarinet studies at age 7. He earned his Bachelor’s degree in fine art from Illinois State University (painting & printmaking) in 1975. Tim has worked in the healing arts (Neuromuscular therapy) for the past 30 years. “Being present to natures healing influence is the guiding principle of my life and art. My intention is to invoke a contemplative presence-freeing the busy, self-contracted, grasping mind into wakefulness, spaciousness, and clarity. The “quality of light” that permeates and suffuses the scene conveys feeling, emotion, mood, and mystery. I work entirely in pastel which with its multiple layering techniques is the perfect medium to convey these qualities.” His paintings have garnered many awards including first prize and best in show. Charles Chuck Pyle, Petaluma Chuck Pyle is the Director of the School of Illustration, Academy of Art University, San Francisco. He was trained as an illustrator at the Academy, and comes from an impressive freelance career. Chuck drew pictures from an early age and still remembers fondly the unique aroma of warm crayons and manila paper. Early artistic influences were Thomas Nast, Charles Dana Gibson, Mort Drucker, Jack Davis, Wally Wood, James R. Neill, and the great editorial cartoonists like Oliphant, Herblock, and Daumier. Art school broadened Chuck's palette of influences and interests to the great painter illustrators including Rockwell, Cornwell, Pyle and Tepper. He is an internationally sought-after artist, working with clients from New York to Tokyo.
