Ignat Ignatov FEATURED ARTIST 2020 Charleston Cityscape s Oil s 22" x 28" s $3,500.00 s Ignat Ignatov A self-described representational painter, the works of artist Ignat Ignatov float fluidly between Impressionism and realism. “Some are loose and sketchy, so they fall more into the Impressionism category,” says Ignatov. “Sometimes I get the painting much tighter. I tend to go with the flow; I go in the direction the subject points me in terms of interpre - tation.” Ignatov was born in 1978 in Veliko, Tarnovo, Bulgaria, and grew up in Sevlievo, Bulgaria. At age 13, his prom - ising talent in drawing, painting and sculpting earned him one of only 30 available spots to attend the renowned Secondary Art School of Applied Arts in Tryavna, Bulgaria. Following his graduation in 1996, Ignatov continued his training at St. Cyril and St. Methodius University of Veliko Tarnovo. In 1997, at the age of 19, fueled by his desire to pur - sue the “American dream,” he entered a lottery to win a Green card. He won – and since he knew only one person in the United States, who lived in California, he moved to the Golden State. He then studied at the prestigious California Institute in North Hollywood and taught painting classes at the Los Angeles Academy of Figurative Art where he taught until 2012. In the course of establishing his artistic roots, Ignatov was influenced by Nicolai Fechin, John Singer Sargent, Anders Zorn and Joaquin Sorolla. His work includes figures, portraits, still lifes, wildlife and landscapes. An avid traveler now living in Charleston, S.C., his art is inspired by his many adventures. Ignatov is represented by LePrince Gallery in Charleston. www.ignatovart.com, email: [email protected], Instagram: ignatignatov 12 Live Oak s Oil s 16" x 20" s $2,500.00 s Ignat Ignatov Ocean Mist s Oil s 20" x 24" s $3,200.00 s Ignat Ignatov Downtown Sunset s Oil s 18" x 24" s $2,900.00 s Ignat Ignatov Morning Sky s Oil s 18" x 24" s $2,900.00 s Ignat Ignatov 13 Ignat Ignatov FEATURED ARTIST 2020 Sunny Barn s Oil s 30" x 40" s $5,500.00 s Ignat Ignatov Summer Sunset s Oil s 30" x 40" s $5,500.00 s Ignat Ignatov Beach Sunset s Oil s 30" x 40" s $5,500.00 s Ignat Ignatov Solitude s Oil s 30" x 40" s $5,500.00 s Ignat Ignatov 14 Flight Over the Marsh s Oil s 18" x 24" s $2,900.00 s Ignat Ignatov Village House s Oil s 12" x 16" s $1,500.00 s Ignat Ignatov Old Barn s Oil s 18" x 24" s $2,900.00 s Ignat Ignatov Passing Clouds s Oil s 18" x 24" s $2,900.00 s Ignat Ignatov 15 Ignat Ignatov FEATURED ARTIST 2020 In the Open Sea s Oil s 22" x 28" s $3,500.00 s Ignat Ignatov Oil Lamp s Oil s 12" x 9" s $950.00 s Ignat Ignatov Lantern Glow s Oil s 16" x 12" s $1,500.00 s Ignat Ignatov 16 Alabama and Blanton’s s Oil s 20" x 16" s $2,500.00 Moon Rise s Oil s 9" x 12" s $950.00 s Ignat Ignatov Ignat Ignatov Auburn and Maker’s s Oil s 20" x 16" s $2,500.00 Waves and Clouds s Oil s 22" x 28" s $3,500.00 s Ignat Ignatov Ignat Ignatov 17 Ignat Ignatov FEATURED ARTIST 2020 High Tide s Oil s 30" x 40" s $5,500.00 s Ignat Ignatov Coastal Sunrise s Oil s 28" x 22" s $3,500.00 s Ignat Ignatov 18 Mark Bailey BOISE, IDAHO Tomorrow We Sail s Oil on Canvas s 30 " x 30 " s $3,600.00 Logrono s Oil on Canvas s 24 " x 30 " s $3,000.00 s Mark Bailey Mark Bailey Mark Bailey’s painterly brushstrokes subtly define figures and objects within his works. His Impressionist style captures an intimate portrait of his figures and the surrounding environment. Bailey’s cityscapes and interiors seem to glow with the energy of the city and its busy urban backdrops. His exquisite figures reveal an unspoken undertone of an individual story within each scene he translates onto canvas. A favorite among collectors, Bailey was chosen in 2010 by Southwest Art magazine as one of “21 Under 31 Artists to Collect Now” and has since been a featured artist within the publication as well as American Art Collector , Fine Art Connoisseur , T he Artist’s Magazine and others. He has also received acclaim in art com - petitions, including Best in Show at the Governor’s Art Exhibit in Colorado.

Bibb, once a creative director for a design firm, has now stepped off the cliff and is painting full time. He started his college education at Auburn University in industrial design, but switched to fine arts to pursue a degree in graphic design. Part painting, part assemblage, part cultural tableau, his work is a pastiche of wood, metal, paper, canvas, tar, wax and even found objects. Simple motifs, including nature and the female form, stand in measured contrast to the quirky compo - sitions, pointed imagery and high-low mix of materials. The result is a wide-ranging and ambi - tious imagery that captures the rich, black wink of the artist’s skewed world view. Bibb’s work can be found in galleries in Santa Fe, New Mexico; Park City, Utah; and regionally in galleries in Atlanta, Birmingham and Nashville. www.sloanebibb.com 50 Jennifer Black CHARLESTON, SOUTH CAROLINA Pears, Apples, and Basket s Oil on Linen s 20 " x 23 " s $950.00 Montana Girl s Oil on Linen s 13 " x 13 " s $325.00 Jennifer Black Jennifer Black Award-winning artist Jennifer Black lives and works in Charleston, S.C., where she maintains her studio overlooking the marshes of the Ashley River.

    Goethe, the Japanese National Identity Through Cultural Exchange, 1889 to 1989

    Jahrbuch für Internationale Germanistik pen Jahrgang LI – Heft 1 | Peter Lang, Bern | S. 57–100 Goethe, the Japanese National Identity through Cultural Exchange, 1889 to 1989 By Stefan Keppler-Tasaki and Seiko Tasaki, Tokyo Dedicated to A . Charles Muller on the occasion of his retirement from the University of Tokyo This is a study of the alleged “singular reception career”1 that Goethe experi- enced in Japan from 1889 to 1989, i. e., from the first translation of theMi gnon song to the last issues of the Neo Faust manga series . In its path, we will high- light six areas of discourse which concern the most prominent historical figures resp. figurations involved here: (1) the distinct academic schools of thought aligned with the topic “Goethe in Japan” since Kimura Kinji 木村謹治, (2) the tentative Japanification of Goethe by Thomas Mann and Gottfried Benn, (3) the recognition of the (un-)German classical writer in the circle of the Japanese national author Mori Ōgai 森鴎外, as well as Goethe’s rich resonances in (4) Japanese suicide ideals since the early days of Wertherism (Ueruteru-zumu ウェル テルヅム), (5) the Zen Buddhist theories of Nishida Kitarō 西田幾多郎 and D . T . Suzuki 鈴木大拙, and lastly (6) works of popular culture by Kurosawa Akira 黒澤明 and Tezuka Osamu 手塚治虫 . Critical appraisal of these source materials supports the thesis that the polite violence and interesting deceits of the discursive history of “Goethe, the Japanese” can mostly be traced back, other than to a form of speech in German-Japanese cultural diplomacy, to internal questions of Japanese national identity .

  • Johann Georg Faust

    Johann Georg Faust

    Johann Georg Faust Dr. Johann Georg Faust (approx. 1480 – 1540) was a German alchemist who was born in the village of Knittlingen, Württemberg (it is also claimed in Roda in the province of Weimar, and also in Helmstadt near Heidelberg in 1466). He has alternatively been known by the names “Johann Sabellicus” and “Georg Faust.” In 1507, Johannes Trithemius of Sponheim wrote that Faust was a con-man and a drifter who preyed on the gullible. He said he had fled a teaching position in Kreuznach after molesting several of the boys there. He may have then gone on to the University of Heidelberg to study, obtaining a degree in divinity from Heidelberg University in 1509, and then to Poland where a friend of Martin Luther, Philip Melanchthon, says Faust studied magic at the University of Kraków. Martin Luther and Philipp Melanchthon are said to have alleged Faust’s companionship with the devil. After that, he appears at the University of Ehrfut in central Germany. It is said that when he lectured on Homer he conjured up Homer’s heroes for his students. He was expelled from Ehrfut by the Franciscan monk Dr. Klinge (who was the cathedral preacher from 1520-1556). Dr. Klinge asked for Faust’s repentance. Faust refused the monk’s offer of intervention and admitted having signed a pact with the Devil, and said that he trusted the Devil more than God. In 1523 he is said to have visited Auerbach’s Tavern in Leipzig where he conjured wine out of a table, and rode a barrel of wine.

    WESTERN VISTA PERSPECTIVE: NICOLAI FECHIN [1881–1955] This Russian-American painter brought his intensely creative spirit and genius for portraiture to the American West WRITTEN BY Gussie Fauntleroy In 1895 in the Russian town of Kazan, a trading port and cultural crossroads on the wide Volga River, 13-year-old Nicolai Ivanovich Fechin stood at a crossroads in life. His father was a masterful artisan skilled in woodworking, archi- tecture, painting, gilding and cabinetry, but less adept at business, and the family had to give up their home. Nicolai’s brother and mother were mov- ing to another town to live with the boys’ grandmother, while their father would travel from village to village as an itinerant craftsman. Young Nicolai could have gone with either parent. Instead, he chose a third, and fortuitous, path. That same year, a graduate Self Portrait of the Imperial Academy of Arts in Saint Petersburg had opened a branch school in Oil on Canvas | 10.5 x 9.5 inches Kazan. It offered painting, sculpture, architecture and general education instruction Private collection to youth from families of all means, not only the wealthy. Nicolai, having spent his boyhood happily engaged in drawing and woodcarving in his father’s workshop, decided to stay in Kazan and attend the school. His father proudly approved. With a classmate, the boy moved into a disused house and subsisted on little more than bread, honey and tea while he attended the six-year school. “It was kind of a miraculous piece of providence. Without that school, Fechin would have needed either a patron or money to hire a master to teach him art, which of course his family didn’t have,” says Susan Fisher, director of the Taos Art rtMusuem Museum in New Mexico, which holds a collection of Fechin paintings, most on A aos long-term loan from private collections.

Materials on Artists and Sculptors Part Two. Photographs of Works Part Three. Additional Material Revised 01/11/2018 Preliminary Comments The Jamison Galleries [hereafter referred to simply as “the Gallery”] were located on East Palace Avenue, Santa Fe, from August 1964 until January 1993, at which time it was moved to Montezuma Street. There it remained until December 1997, when it closed its doors forever. Originally owned by Margaret Jamison, it was sold by her in 1974 to Betty W. and Zeb B. Conley. The Library of the Museum of Fine Arts is indebted to the couple for the donation of this Collection. A similar collection was acquired earlier by the Library of the records of the Contemporaries Gallery. Some of the artists who exhibited their works at this Gallery also showed at The Contemporaries Gallery. Included in the works described in this collection are those of several artists whose main material is indexed in their own Collections. This collection deals with the works of a vast array of talented artists and sculptors; and together with The Contemporaries Gallery Collection, they comprise a definitive representation of southwestern art of the late 20th Century. Part One contains 207 numbered Folders. Because the contents of some are too voluminous to be limited to one folder, they have been split into lettered sub-Folders [viz. Folder 79-A, 79-B, etc.]. Each numbered Folder contains material relating to a single artist or sculptor, all arranged — and numbered — alphabetically.

    A Discussion of Goethe's Faust Part 1 Rafael Sordili, Concordia University

    Sordili: Nothingness on the Move Sordili 1 Nothingness on the Move: A Discussion of Goethe's Faust Part 1 Rafael Sordili, Concordia University (Editor's note: Rafael Sordili's paper was selected for publication in the 2013 Agora because it was one of the best three presented at the ACTC Student Conference at Shimer College in Chicago in March 2013.) In the world inhabited by Faust, movement is a metaphysical fact: it is an expression of divine will over creation. There are, however, negative consequences to an existence governed by motion. The most prevalent of them is a feeling of nothingness and nihilism. This essay will discuss the relations between movement and such feelings in Goethe's Faust.1 It is my thesis that the assertion of his will to life, the acceptance of his own limitations, and the creation of new personal values are the tools that will ultimately enable Faust to escape nihilism. Metaphysics of Motion Faust lives in a world in which motion is the main force behind existence. During the Prologue in Heaven, three archangels give speeches in praise of the Creator, emphasizing how the world is in a constant state of movement. Raphael states that the movement of the Sun is a form of worship: "The sun proclaims its old devotion / [. .] / and still completes in thunderous motion / the circuits of its destined years" (246-248). For Gabriel, the rotation of the earth brings movement to all the elements upon its surface: "High cliffs stand deep in ocean weather, / wide foaming waves flood out and in, / and cliffs and seas rush on together / caught in the globe's unceasing spin" (251-258).

    On the Occasion of His Fifth Solo Exhibition at Galerie Buchholz, Artist Julian Göthe Presents a New Group of Sculptures and Works on Paper

    Finding the radical illusion or “la chasse magique” On the occasion of his fifth solo exhibition at Galerie Buchholz, artist Julian Göthe presents a new group of sculptures and works on paper. The currents that must have inspired these works are as hard to intercept as they are impossible to list. “A lion made of assimilated sheep”, this is perhaps how Paul Valéry would call Göthe's oevre, having delicately fed on and digested so many inspirational references. Only clue that the artist provides is in the exhibition's title, which is also the title of a song by British musician Colin Newman – Their Terrain is track number one on the album Commercial Suicide, 1986. The last verse reads: After this, what next could be a question? Build the megalith again As for history we may be on a winner Or the chorus, it's a shame The parodic charge of Göthe's work finds here another fortunate momentum, a distinctly sardonic laughter permeates the rooms: objects become strange, undefinable “attractors.” It is with them that Göthe touches the limit of his aesthetic adventure – which is also the end of the adventure of representation. Göthe's megaliths actually resemble a Saint Laurent bow-tie; the twin sculptures could almost be a tart refraction of a Giorgio De Chirico sketch for the Faust (I'm thinking in particular of a drawing where Mephistopheles is portrayed as wearing a blond wig, and an explosive set of ostrich feathers seems to have set his hat on fire). The practice of the DeChirichian transvestment can be related to Göthe's also for its dissimulatingly serious aspect.

    Jacob Bidermann: Cenodoxus (1602, 1635)

    1 Jacob Bidermann: Cenodoxus (1602, 1635) Jakob Bidermann (1578-1639) mit seiner Comico-Tragoedia „Cenodoxus. Der Doktor von Paris“ (1602, 1635 aus dem Lateinischen ins Deutsche übersetzt). Die Wirkung des lateinischen Jesuitendramas auf die Zuschauer soll so überwältigend gewesen sein, dass „nicht 100 Predigten eine solche Wirkung“ hätten erzielen können, 14 Hofleute hätten spontan dem Leben entsagt. Bidermann, der wichtigste Vertreter des Jesuitendramas im deutschsprachigen Raum, hat einige erfolgreiche Theaterstücke geschrieben, von denen wir gerade noch die Titel aus der Literaturgeschichte kennen, deren Themen aber viel aussagen über die Themen der 1. Hälfte des 17. Jahrhunderts: „Herodiados“, „Josaphat“ und „Jacobus usurarius“. Herodes als der Kindermörder von Bethlehem ist ein ebenso beliebter Stoff wie Herodes als Ehemann und Tyrann. Prinz Josaphat ist der Sohn des Buddha. Der Eremit Barlaam bekehrt ihn zum Christentum; er, Josaphat, seinen Vater auch. Als Prinz verzichtet er auf sein Königreich. Der Jacobus-Stoff gehört in die mittelalterliche literarische Tradition des Marienstoffes. Hier nimmt die katholische Gegen-reformation das durch die lutherische Reformation auf die biblische Maria reduzierte Thema wieder auf. Das Bidermannsche Drama ist Bekehrungsdrama. Bidermanns berühmtestes Theaterstück ist der lateinisch geschriebene „Cenodoxus“von 1602. Vorlage ist die Legende vom heiligen Bruno. Der heilige Bruno wird während der Seelenmesse für einen berühmten Doktor Zeuge eines Wunders. Die Leiche des Doktors erhebt sich dreimal von der Totenbahre und schreit jedesmal mit grauenvoller Stimme: „Aus gerechtem Urteil Gottes bin ich angeklagt“ und „... bin ich gerichtet“ und beim drittenmal: „Aus gerechtem Urteil Gottes bin ich verdammt“. Der Doktor heißt Cenodoxus, auf Deutsch der Ruhmsüchtige (El ávido de gloria). Nachdem Cenodoxus Wissen und Ruhm erlangt hat, will er nun Gott gleich werden.
