General Type Studio Throughout the 20Th Century, Western Artists Found General Type Studio Nysé Aa Aa Designed by Stéphane Elbaz, Throughout the 20th century, western artists found new references and Released in 2021. recontextualized their view of the past. The rediscovering of Egypt and Asia, and the realization that the facades and statues of the Greek temples were painted with bright colors shedded a new light on established canons. This, combined with a reaction to the new forms shaped by industrialization, led to the Arts & Crafts movement of the second half of the 1800s and by extension to Art Nouveau. Nysé is strongly influenced by the French artist Henri Bellery-Desfontaines. The artist was commissioned by the renowned Parisian type foundry Deberny & Peignot to create an original alphabet. The remarkable Art Nouveau flavored typeface was released in 1910 and became immediately popular. While being clearly distinct, Nysé shares many of the Bellery-Desfontaines’ design features. The name Nysé references an exotic place in Greek mythology where Dionysus was born and raised by nymphs.

Previously considered to have been a primarily rural and fringe part of Greek religion, the major urban center of Ath- ens played a major role in the development and spread of the Bacchic mysteries. ¶ The Bacchic mysteries served an important role in creating ritual traditions for transitions in people’s lives; originally primarily 12 pt 9 pt for men and male sexuality, but later also created space for ritual- included rituals involving the sacrifice of goats or bulls, and at least some participants and dancers wore wooden masks associated with the god.

    THE HISTORY OF PHOTOGRAPHY The Research Library of the Mack Lee Gallery 2,633 titles in circa 3,140 volumes Lee Gallery Photography Research Library Comprising over 3,100 volumes of monographs, exhibition catalogues and periodicals, the Lee Gallery Photography Research Library provides an overview of the history of photography, with a focus on the nineteenth century, in particular on the first three decades after the invention photography. Strengths of the Lee Library include American, British, and French photography and photographers. The publications on French 19th- century material (numbering well over 100), include many uncommon specialized catalogues from French regional museums and galleries, on the major photographers of the time, such as Eugène Atget, Daguerre, Gustave Le Gray, Charles Marville, Félix Nadar, Charles Nègre, and others. In addition, it is noteworthy that the library includes many small exhibition catalogues, which are often the only publication on specific photographers’ work, providing invaluable research material. The major developments and evolutions in the history of photography are covered, including numerous titles on the pioneers of photography and photographic processes such as daguerreotypes, calotypes, and the invention of negative-positive photography. The Lee Gallery Library has great depth in the Pictorialist Photography aesthetic movement, the Photo- Secession and the circle of Alfred Stieglitz, as evidenced by the numerous titles on American photography of the early 20th-century. This is supplemented by concentrations of books on the photography of the American Civil War and the exploration of the American West. Photojournalism is also well represented, from war documentary to Farm Security Administration and LIFE photography.

Salzmann's photograph of a road in Jerusalem is only a picture of a dusty place, Barthes says, "nothing but stony ground, olive trees." And yet this picture is the basis for a highly affective experience that leads Barthes to question how the photograph influences our understanding of lived and historical time.
