  • Opticality and the Work of Morris Louis (1912-1962)
    CHAPTER 1 SITUATING MORRIS LOUIS 1912–1962 SITUATING MORRIS LOUIS 1912–1962 Although the work of the Washington–based artist Morris Louis (1912–62) is now discussed alongside some of the most well–known of the American abstract artists of the mid–twentieth century, much of Louis’ mature work, and arguably his most refined, was produced outside of public knowledge. For the majority of Louis’ career his work existed in relative obscurity, particularly in comparison with his contemporaries, artists such as Jackson Pollock (1912–56), Mark Rothko (1903–70) and Clyfford Still (1904–80). Being amongst the first generation of abstract artists in the United States, the newness of his abstract painting depended upon the endorsement of major critics for public appreciation.1 The critical recognition of Louis’ work emerged only with the support of Clement Greenberg in 1960, almost 30 years after he began working as an artist and only two years before his death. The timing of Greenberg’s writing positioned Louis amongst a new generation of artists including Frank Stella (1936 – ), Kenneth Noland (1924 –) and Jules Olitski (1922 –). Audiences were only beginning to appreciate Louis’ work as he entered the last phase of his career, and as such, the representation of Louis’ work only addressed a small period of his career. The limited exposure of Louis’ paintings prior to the early 1960s had major effects upon how his works were interpreted in the decades following his death. Many retrospectives and group exhibitions of Louis’ work came to relate his paintings to the work of younger artists engaging with ‘Colourfield’ abstraction.

  • Painterly Representation in New York: 1945-1975
    PAINTERLY REPRESENTATION IN NEW YORK, 1945-1975 by JENNIFER SACHS SAMET A dissertation submitted to the Graduate Faculty in Art History in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, The City University of New York 2010 © 2010 JENNIFER SACHS SAMET All Rights Reserved ii This manuscript has been read and accepted for the Graduate Faculty in Art History in satisfaction of the dissertation requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Date Dr. Patricia Mainardi Chair of the Examining Committee Date Dr. Patricia Mainardi Acting Executive Officer Dr. Katherine Manthorne Dr. Rose-Carol Washton Long Ms. Martica Sawin Supervision Committee THE CITY UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORK iii Abstract PAINTERLY REPRESENTATION IN NEW YORK, 1945-1975 by JENNIFER SACHS SAMET Advisor: Professor Patricia Mainardi Although the myth persists that figurative painting in New York did not exist after the age of Abstract Expressionism, many artists in fact worked with a painterly, representational vocabulary during this period and throughout the 1960s and 1970s. This dissertation is the first survey of a group of painters working in this mode, all born around the 1920s and living in New York. Several, though not all, were students of Hans Hofmann; most knew one another; some were close friends or colleagues as art teachers. I highlight nine artists: Rosemarie Beck (1923-2003), Leland Bell (1922-1991), Nell Blaine (1922-1996), Robert De Niro (1922-1993), Paul Georges (1923-2002), Albert Kresch (b. 1922), Mercedes Matter (1913-2001), Louisa Matthiasdottir (1917-2000), and Paul Resika (b. 1928). This group of artists has been marginalized in standard art historical surveys and accounts of the period.

  • Painterly Representation
    FOREWORD Last spring Louis Finkelstein proposed that we organize a show on Painterly Representation. We felt that this exhibition would have educationail value as well as bringing together a group of established artists and highlighting an important but considerably unrecognized dimension of contemporary painting. We invited Louis to select the artists and write the catalogue essay and we are sponsoring it as a two year traveling exhibition to American museums and colleges. We have enjoyed working with Louis Finkelstein and we are grateful to Pat Mainardi for her involvement in the preparation of the catalogue and the exhibition. Barbara Ingber Director Ingber Gallery (1975) Note: Black and White reproductions of the paintings from the catalog follow the essay at the end. Painterly Representation By Louis Finkelstein Representational painting, it has been said, lacks a persuasive theory, but the case may well be the other way around–that too often the persuasions are exercised by the theory instead of the work, and the theory turns out to be too shallow for what is good in the work anyway. There is much too much false, flatulent, weak theory around, theory which stands in front of the work or which props lip what would otherwise be too weak to be of interest. Lately there have emerged a few mea culpas to the effect that proponents of various theories may have, in their enthusiasm, oversold a certain bill of goods, or that having behaved in a domineering, arrogant and dogmatic fashion over a number of years, they really didn't mean to tout what it had all the appearances of reaping the advantages of, i.e.

  • An Empirical Study of a District Wide K-2 Performance Assessment Program: Teacher Practices, Information Gained, and Use of Assessment Results
    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 452 216 TM 032 501 AUTHOR Lanting, Ashley TITLE An Empirical Study of a District Wide K-2 Performance Assessment Program: Teacher Practices, Information Gained, and Use of Assessment Results. PUB DATE 2001-04-00 NOTE 297p.; Paper presented at the Annual Meeting of the American Educational Research Association (Seattle, WA, April 10-14, 2001). PUB TYPE Reports Research (143) Speeches/Meeting Papers (150) EDRS PRICE MF01/PC12 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS *Elementary School Teachers; *Inservice Teacher Education; *Literacy; *Performance Based Assessment; Primary Education; Qualitative Research; Scoring; *Test Use IDENTIFIERS Grounded Theory ABSTRACT This study used a qualitative research methodology to examine how four primary teachers used a district literacy performance assessment. Data were collected through observations, interviews, and documents. Grounded theory and NUD*IST software were used for text analysis and theory building. Findings show that a theory-grounded teacher-empowered K-2 performance assessment program accompanied by the school district's low level of interference could interact very well with teachers' high ethical standards on assessments. When the in-service training was voluntary, teachers did not spontaneously practice comprehended portfolio use or students self-assessment, but rather relied on observation and interview. Rubrics seemed to work as conceptual frameworks for data collection and evaluation, and teachers usually grounded their evaluations on evidence. Dimensional scoring and flexible marking across proficiency levels were implemented, and teachers appeared to focus on student strengths. The information obtained from the literacy assessment was criterion referenced and individualized. Teachers did not use normative language when commenting on student performance. Assessment results were generally used to keep track of student performance and to provide remedial teaching, but there seemed to be a gap between assessment results and corresponding pedagogical strategies.
