But there are always these recurring themes about the rejection of the material world, the rejection of materialism and letting that world become so important, and the metaphysical side of life -- the magical or miraculous -- and believing those ideals. So, what's an artist to do in the face of face of such violence, especially the artist's usually currency is glamour, color and kitsch, rather than overt political action?

  • A Southern California Visionary with Northern Michigan Sensibilities
    John Lautner By Melissa Matuscak A SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA VISIONARY WITH NORTHERN MICHIGAN SENSIBILITIES 32 | MICHIGAN HISTORY Architect John Lautner would have turned 100 years old on July 16, 2011. Two museums in his hometown of Marquette recently celebrated this milestone with concurrent exhibits. The DeVos Art Museum at Northern Michigan University focused on a professional career that spanned over 50 years and the Marquette Regional History Center told the story of the Lautner family. Combined, they demonstrated how in!uential his family and his U.P. upbringing were to Lautner’s abilities and his eye for design. nyone who has lived in the Upper Peninsula tends to develop a deeper awareness of nature, if only to anticipate the constantly changing weather. !e natural landscapes, and especially Lake Superior, are integral to the way of life in the region in both work and leisure. John Lautner’s idyllic childhood in Marquette stirred what By Melissa Matuscak would become an ongoing quest to create unity between nature and architecture. !e story of what made John Lautner a visionary architect begins with his parents. His father, John Lautner Sr., was born in 1865 near Traverse City, the son of German immigrants. !ough he began school late—at age 15—by age 32 John Sr. had received bachelor’s and master’s degrees in German literature from the University of Michigan. His studies took him to the East Coast and to Europe, but he eventually returned to Michigan to accept a position at Northern State Normal School (now Northern Michigan University) in Marquette in 1903.

  • The Greatest Artists of the Twentieth Century
    This PDF is a selection from a published volume from the National Bureau of Economic Research Volume Title: Conceptual Revolutions in Twentieth-Century Art Volume Author/Editor: David W. Galenson Volume Publisher: Cambridge University Press Volume ISBN: 978-0-521-11232-1 Volume URL: http://www.nber.org/books/gale08-1 Publication Date: October 2009 Title: The Greatest Artists of the Twentieth Century Author: David W. Galenson URL: http://www.nber.org/chapters/c5785 Chapter 2: The Greatest Artists of the Twentieth Century Introduction The masters, truth to tell, are judged as much by their influence as by their works. Emile Zola, 18841 Important artists are innovators: they are important because they change the way their successors work. The more widespread, and the more profound, the changes due to the work of any artist, the greater is the importance of that artist. Recognizing the source of artistic importance points to a method of measuring it. Surveys of art history are narratives of the contributions of individual artists. These narratives describe and explain the changes that have occurred over time in artists’ practices. It follows that the importance of an artist can be measured by the attention devoted to his work in these narratives. The most important artists, whose contributions fundamentally change the course of their discipline, cannot be omitted from any such narrative, and their innovations must be analyzed at length; less important artists can either be included or excluded, depending on the length of the specific narrative treatment and the tastes of the author, and if they are included their contributions can be treated more summarily.

  • TASCHEN Publishing House Bundles Logistics at Arvato
    TASCHEN Publishing House implements new logistics concept together with VVA TASCHEN Publishing House bundles logistics at Sonja Groß Arvato Head of Marketing & Communications Arvato Supply Chain Solutions August 12, 2020 Phone: +49 5241 80-41897 Gütersloh - VVA has won TASCHEN Verlag as a new customer at its [email protected] Gütersloh location. The publishing house is combining the move to the Arvato subsidiary, which began on July 1, 2020, with a reorganization of its international logistics concept. TASCHEN and the VVA are jointly optimizing the international supply chain. The core of the new concept is centralization at a European central warehouse at the Gütersloh location, which will gradually replace the regional warehouses existing in several countries. In the future, all customers in the European markets will be served directly from there. In addition, the publishing house's international sales partners will be linked to the European central warehouse. Until further notice, „KNV Zeitfracht“ will continue to supply the German-speaking book market. "I am very pleased that TASCHEN Publishing House has chosen us for this demanding project," says Stephan Schierke, President VVA. "Outside the usual VVA industry solution, we have worked with TASCHEN to develop tailor-made logistics for the world market. Arvato's cross-industry know-how will be of benefit to us in overcoming the special challenges in terms of logistics and IT". "The new solution will reduce our complexity, lower costs through synergy and economies of scale, and improve our service," said TASCHEN-COO Hans-Peter Kübler. "The prerequisite for such a challenging project is a strong and reliable partner, which we have found in the VVA.

Lauren J. Summersgill October 2014 3 Abstract This thesis investigates artistic post-mortem photography in the context of shifting social relationship with death in the 1980s and 1990s. Analyzing Nan Goldin’s Cookie in Her Casket and Andres Serrano’s The Morgue, I argue that artists engaging in post- mortem photography demonstrate care for the deceased. Further, that demonstrable care in photographing the dead responds to a crisis of the late 1980s and early 1990s in America. At the time, death returned to social and political discourse with the visibility of AIDS and cancer and the euthanasia debates, spurring on photographic engagement with the corpse. Nan Goldin’s 1989 post-mortem portrait of her friend, Cookie in Her Casket, was first presented within The Cookie Portfolio.

  • DAVID LACHAPELLE Press Images Available
    DAVID LACHAPELLE Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow? December 13, 2018 - March 2, 2019 Opening Reception: December 13, 2018 6:00 - 8:00 pm “Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow?” is the first exhibition of David LaChapelle’s work at Staley-Wise Gallery in more than ten years. Many of the works included have never been previously exhibited. Since his early commissions from Andy Warhol as a portrait photographer for Interview magazine, many of LaChapelle’s photographs of well-known figures in contemporary culture have become iconic in their own right. Throughout this exhibition, LaChapelle’s images reveal an unusual level of collaboration and trust from his subjects. Featured in the collection is the last sitting of Mr. Warhol, a black and white portrait the artist made of his mentor in 1987. The show continues with a diverse anthology of profound and often prophetic scenes, featuring polarizing idols including Elton John, David Bowie, Faye Dunaway, Tupac Shakur, Dolly Parton, Amy Winehouse, Michael Jackson, and Hillary Clinton. The selected photographs not only showcase the famous in defining moments of their careers, but also serve as a mirror to our own obsessions and curiosities with fame itself. David LaChapelle’s photographs are included in the permanent collections of the National Portrait Gallery (London, UK), the National Portrait Gallery (Washington, DC), and the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (Los Angeles, USA), among others. Solo exhibitions of his work have opened worldwide, including at the Groninger Museum (The Netherlands), Casa dei Tre Oci (Venice, Italy), Beaux-Arts Mons (Mons, Belgium), Palazzo delle Esposizioni (Rome, Italy), Hangaram Design Museum (Seoul, South Korea), Kunst Haus Wein (Vienna, Austria), Monnaie de Paris (Paris, France), and the Tel Aviv Museum of Art (Tel Aviv, Israel).

Galenson Working Paper 11899 http://www.nber.org/papers/w11899 NATIONAL BUREAU OF ECONOMIC RESEARCH 1050 Massachusetts Avenue Cambridge, MA 02138 December 2005 The views expressed herein are those of the author(s) and do not necessarily reflect the views of the National Bureau of Economic Research. ©2005 by David W. Galenson. All rights reserved. Short sections of text, not to exceed two paragraphs, may be quoted without explicit permission provided that full credit, including © notice, is given to the source. The Greatest Artists of the Twentieth Century David W. Galenson NBER Working Paper No. 11899 December 2005 JEL No. J0, J1 ABSTRACT Pablo Picasso was by far the greatest artist of the 20th century: textbooks of art history contain more than twice as many illustrations of his work as of that of his closest rival, Henri Matisse. A survey of textbooks also identifies Jackson Pollock as the greatest American artist, by a narrow margin over Andy Warhol. The 15 greatest artists of the century include nine conceptual innovators, who made their greatest contributions early in their lives, in their 20s and 30s, and six experimental innovators, who generally did their greatest work in their 40s and 50s - and even, in the case of Mondrian, in his 70s. Contrary to the belief of many humanists, the textbooks show that in art, as in all intellectual activities, importance is determined by innovation. David W. Galenson Department of Economics University of Chicago 1126 East 59th Street Chicago, IL 60637 and NBER [email protected] 3 Introduction Perhaps the importance that we must attach to the achievement of an artist or a group of artists may properly be measured by the answer to the following question: Have they so wrought that it will be impossible henceforth, for those who follow, ever again to act as if they had not existed? Walter Sickert, 19101 Important artists are innovators: they are important because they change the way their successors work.

Gordon Bunshaft remains an oddly controversial figure in modern architectural history. Was he a consequential fig- ure or a corporate shill? Was he ‘The Establishment’s Archi- tect-Plus’, as a 1972 New York Times profile labeled him, or an outsider who carved out a niche for himself on the inside? Does he deserve credit for the buildings attributed to him or, as some critics now maintain, were they largely designed by the senior designers who worked under him at Skidmore, Ownings, and Merrill (SOM)? Nicholas Adams, the author of a well-regarded monograph about SOM, Skid- more, Owings & Merrill: SOM Since 1936 (2007), answers all these questions and more in his new book about Bunshaft, Gordon Bunshaft and SOM: Building Corporate Modernism Figure 1: Cover of Gordon Bunshaft and SOM: Building (Figure 1).
