  • MSNC 732 Richard Guy Walton Collection
    Richard Guy Walton Collection, MS/NC 732 1 Catalog, with Annotated Index of Names & Genealogical Addendum prepared by Anthony Shafton, 2018–21 Catalog Introduction Richard Guy Walton (1914–2005) was an artist, photographer and writer. He experimented with many styles of painting over a long career, and is considered Nevada’s preeminent abstract artist of the twentieth century. Walton was born in San Francisco, grew up in Fresno and Stockton, and came to Reno in 1929 to live with his briefly remarried mother. He gained the better part of his art education at Chouinard Art Institute in Los Angeles before returning to Reno to join the Federal Art Project (FAP) of the Works Progress Administration (WPA) under Robert Cole Caples, who became a friend. In 1938 he married Marie Jeanne Etcheberry, daughter of John P. Etcheberry, Basque sheepman, and Louise Larralde Etcheberry, proprietors of Reno’s Santa Fe Hotel. When Walton and Marie Jeanne separated in 1958, Walton moved to Virginia City. He married his second wife Vivian Diane Washburn, daughter of his friend Mary VanderHoeven, in 1963. They lived in Virginia City until 2003 when they were forced by his illnesses to move down the “hill.” The Nevada Historical Society’s Richard Guy Walton Collection, MS/NC 732, comprises 30 boxes of materials plus 2 artworks. The first 12 boxes and the artworks were gifted by the artist to the NHS by a deed dated December 22, 2000. Of these boxes, Boxes 1 through 3 hold voice recordings by Walton, while Boxes 4 through 12 hold documents, letters, manuscripts (typescripts), clippings, photographs, catalogs, magazines, books and miscellaneous objects.

  • The Fake News: Examining the Image of the Journalist Through Weekend Update (Part I: 1975-1980)
    Lawrence Murray 2013-2014 J576 The Fake News: Examining the Image of the Journalist Through Weekend Update (Part I: 1975-1980) The Fake News: Examining the Image of the Journalist Through Weekend Update (Part I: 1975-1980) By Lawrence Murray 1 Lawrence Murray 2013-2014 J576 The Fake News: Examining the Image of the Journalist Through Weekend Update (Part I: 1975-1980) ABSTRACT The image of the broadcast news journalist is one that we can identify with on a regular basis. We see the news as an opportunity to be engaged in the world at large. Saturday Night Live’s “Weekend Update” brought a different take on the image of the journalist: one that was a satire on its head, but a criticism of news culture as a whole. This article looks at the first five seasons of Saturday Night Live’s “Weekend Update” and the image of the journalist portrayed by the SNL cast members serving as cast members from 1975 (Chevy Chase) until 1980 (Bill Murray and Jane Curtin). This article will show how the anchors’ style and substance does more than tell jokes about the news. The image of the journalist portrayed through the 1970s version of “Weekend Update” is mostly a negative one; while it acknowledges the importance of news and information by being a staple of the show, it ultimately mocks the news and the journalists who are prominently featured on the news. 2 Lawrence Murray 2013-2014 J576 The Fake News: Examining the Image of the Journalist Through Weekend Update (Part I: 1975-1980) INTRODUCTION: WEEKEND UPDATE Saturday Night Live is a sketch comedy show that debuted on NBC in 1975.

    THE JEAN-NOËL HERLIN ARCHIVE PROJECT Jean-Noël Herlin New York City 2005 Table of Contents Introduction i Individual artists and performers, collaborators, and groups 1 Individual artists and performers, collaborators, and groups. Selections A-D 77 Group events and clippings by title 109 Group events without title / Organizations 129 Periodicals 149 Introduction In the context of my activity as an antiquarian bookseller I began in 1973 to acquire exhibition invitations/announcements and poster/mailers on painting, sculpture, drawing and prints, performance, and video. I was motivated by the quasi-neglect in which these ephemeral primary sources in art history were held by American commercial channels, and the project to create a database towards the bibliographic recording of largely ignored material. Documentary value and thinness were my only criteria of inclusion. Sources of material were random. Material was acquired as funds could be diverted from my bookshop. With the rapid increase in number and diversity of sources, my initial concept evolved from a documentary to a study archive project on international visual and performing arts, reflecting the appearance of new media and art making/producing practices, globalization, the blurring of lines between high and low, and the challenges to originality and quality as authoritative criteria of classification and appreciation. In addition to painting, sculpture, drawing and prints, performance and video, the Jean-Noël Herlin Archive Project includes material on architecture, design, caricature, comics, animation, mail art, music, dance, theater, photography, film, textiles and the arts of fire. It also contains material on galleries, collectors, museums, foundations, alternative spaces, and clubs.

  • WOODY ALLEN at BFI Southbank
    PRESS RELEASE: November 2011 11/78 Wise Cracks: The Comedies Of WOODY ALLEN at BFI Southbank BFI Southbank launches the New Year with an offering of thrills and laughter from Woody Allen, a most prolific filmmaker whose career has spanned just over six decades and more than 40 feature films, with a new film made almost every year. A celebration of his classic comedies will screen throughout January, including Extended Runs of both Zelig (1983) and the multi-Oscar-winning Hannah and Her Sisters (1986). This retrospective of films presents a timely reminder of his brilliant and exceptional career as a writer-director of comedy films, plus the importance of the comedy genre, as BFI Southbank presents the first London Comedy Film Festival at the end of the month. Allen’s career began by writing jokes for a local newspaper before progressing to stand-up comedy, then to writing gags and scripts for television and eventually screenwriting and appearing in films, until it was clear, to him, that he needed to direct films himself. This BFI season starts with Bananas (1971) and the sci-fi Sleeper (1973), where Allen’s trademark characteristics of a nervous, somewhat pessimistic New York Jew, with a sharp and self- deprecating banter were first established. Sleeper was the first partnering of Allen and Diane Keaton, who would go on to star in the period piece Love and Death (1975) and the Allen classics Annie Hall (1977), for which he won Academy Awards for Best Director and Best Original Screenplay, and Manhattan (1979) – the latter an unforgettable tribute to New York.
