  • NEW ZEALAND PRIMITIVE METHODIST MINISTERS By
    This research is dedicated to Mr. Alan Charlesworth Armitage (1915- 2002) of Christchurch, who encouraged this research. His family roots NEW ZEALAND in England were in the West Riding. Originally Independents living at Hightown in the Spen Valley, here they joined the Primitive Methodists and then moved to Leeds. Subsequently some of the family moved to New Zealand where they became Wesleyan Methodists. PRIMITIVE METHODIST MINISTERS by CIRCUITS [2015] In 1988 the late William Leary published his Ministers & Circuits in the Primitive ABBREVIATIONS Methodist Church, a Directory which records the ministerial stationing. Ths accuracy of Leary’s listing in part is complicated by an inconsistency of B - born presenting material for the oversea stations – Australia/Australasia, Canada and CH - children New Zealand. His source for this research was the annual Primitive Methodist Ct. - circuit Conference.

Known all over the world for his buildings, many of which have attained iconic status, Frank Gehry has revolutionised architecture’s aesthetics, its social and cultural role, and its relationship to the city. It was in Los Angeles, in the early 1960s, that Gehry opened his own office as an architect. There he engaged with the California art scene, becoming friends with artists such as Ed Ruscha, Richard Serra, Claes Oldenburg, Larry Bell, and Ron Davis. His encounter with the works of Robert Rauschenberg and Jasper Johns would open the way to a transformation of his practice as an architect, for which his own, now world-famous, house at Santa Monica would serve as a manifesto. Frank Gehry’s work has since then been based on the interrogation of architecture’s means of expression, a process that has brought with it new methods of design and a new approach to materials, with for example the use of such “poor” materials as cardboard, sheet steel and industrial wire mesh.

  • Andy Warhol Who Later Became the Most
    Jill Crotty FSEM Warhol: The Businessman and the Artist At the start of the 1960s Roy Lichtenstein, Claes Oldenburg and Robert Rauschenberg were the kings of the emerging Pop Art era. These artists transformed ordinary items of American culture into famous pieces of art. Despite their significant contributions to this time period, it was Andy Warhol who later became the most recognizable icon of the Pop Art Era. By the mid sixties Lichtenstein, Oldenburg and Rauschenberg each had their own niche in the Pop Art market, unlike Warhol who was still struggling to make sales. At one point it was up to Ivan Karp, his dealer, to “keep moving things moving forward until the artist found representation whether with Castelli or another gallery.” 1Meanwhile Lichtenstein became known for his painted comics, Oldenburg made sculptures of mass produced food and Rauschenberg did combines (mixtures of everyday three dimensional objects) and gestural paintings. 2 These pieces were marketable because of consumer desire, public recognition and aesthetic value. In later years Warhol’s most well known works such as Turquoise Marilyn (1964) contained all of these aspects. Some marketable factors were his silk screening technique, his choice of known subjects, his willingness to adapt his work, his self promotion, and his connection to art dealers. However, which factor of Warhol’s was the most marketable is heavily debated. I believe Warhol’s use of silk screening, well known subjects, and self 1 Polsky, R. (2011). The Art Prophets. (p. 15).

  • Murray Ave School Art Appreciation Presentation: Robert Rauschenberg
    Murray Ave School Art Appreciation Presentation: Robert Rauschenberg Lesson Plan Biography: (show picture 1, photo of him in his studio) Considered by many to be one of the most influential American artists due to his radical blending of materials and methods, Robert Rauschenberg was one of the key Neo-Dada movement artists in the 1950s and 60s. He would pick up trash he found on the street, use pages ripped from the phone book, photographs, and even 3 dimensional objects like spoons. He would then affix these objects to his canvas, and paint over them to create a layered effect. He was quoted as saying "I really feel sorry for people who think things like soap dishes or mirrors or Coke bottles are ugly because they're surrounded by things like that all day long, and it must make them miserable.” Robert Rauschenberg was born in the small town of Port Arthur, Texas. His father, was a strict and serious man and his mother was a very frugal woman. She made the family's clothes from scraps. That embarrassed little Robert, but possibly influenced his artwork later in life with his collages. He asked for a store-bought shirt for his high school graduation present, the very first in his young life!! During WWII, Robert was drafted into the Navy. While stationed in San Diego, he was assigned the job as a medical technician to care for wounded soldiers. On a break one day, he walked into an art gallery and saw oil paintings in person for the first time, and became instantly fascinated by art.

  • Charlie Crosdale and Jack Palmer
    3. A crew assembles: Charlie Crosdale and Jack Palmer It was Squadron Leader A. D. Carey’s job. The Station Administrative Officer at RAAF Station Laverton initiated preparations on Friday, 9 August 1940 for a flight on Tuesday, August 13 to ‘Convey Minister for Air and five other passengers to Canberra A.C.T.’ Alfred Carey’s Flying Operation Instruction No. 111 advised that the aircraft would be one of No. 2 Squadron’s latest acquisitions, a Lockheed Hudson bomber, A16-97. The captain and crew for the flight to Canberra were to be detailed by No. 2 Squadron’s commanding officer. When their delivery of important people to the capital was completed the intention was that, in the absence of alternative orders, A16-97 should return to Laverton, empty save for ballast and its crew of four.1 A16-97 was one of the second batch of 50 Hudsons delivered to the RAAF from the Lockheed plant in California. Of the 100 Hudsons in the country at the end of July 1940 two had already been ‘written off by conversion’ as a result of crashes. One was undergoing ‘major repair owing to crash’, and another two had been ‘robbed of various parts’. The last four machines in the second group were fitted with seven passenger seats as well as dual controls. These specially fitted Hudsons were to be dispersed to bases around the country. They would form part of a Hudson squadron reserve at Richmond, Pearce, Darwin, and Laverton, and be available to transport ‘essential maintenance stores and personnel to advanced operational bases’.
