More about Golden Colors At the height of the depression in the 1930s, Sam Golden joined his uncle Leonard Bocour as a partner in Bocour Artist Colors. Leonard and Sam produced hand- ground oil colors for artists. The shop on 15th Street in Manhattan became a hangout for artists from the 1930s through the early 1950s. Artists such as Barnett Newman, BIO:I grew up in Farmers Branch, Texas and studied Mark Rothko, Willem de Kooning, Jackson Pollock, Helen close to home at the University of North Texas. I Frankenthaler and Jack Levine would go to the shop to visit earned a BFA focusing primarily on Studio Drawing with Leonard, talk to Sam and get paint. and Painting in 2013. Before achieving a BFA, my twin brother and I were traveling playing music and During one visit an artist gave Sam a honey like resin and signed a record contract to Island/Def-Jam Records in 2009. During my travels playing music, I asked if it could be made into paint. Sam recognized that this experimented in painting and photography and began idea would require experimentation as the early batches of to gather photographs of a small community where the new paint seemed to dry before the paint was applied. my family has a one-hundred-year old farm in Between 1946 and 1949, and after much trial and error, the Kopperl, Texas.

Sam eventually developed a more popular waterborne version of the acrylic, "Aquatec." He continued to refine the chemistry of acrylic paints working with artists for the next 20 years to find what worked and what did not. After 30 years in the paint making business, Sam retired and moved to picturesque New Berlin, New York. Sam planned to fish and golf, but quickly grew bored with retirement and found himself "going to the barn to make paint for friends." At the age of 67 Sam decided to come out of retirement. Golden Artist Colors, Inc. began in June of 1980 in a 900 square foot, renovated barn. Sam, his wife Adele, son Mark and daughter-in-law Barbara Golden along with partner Chuck Kelly, founded a new company that would embody Sam's dedication to professional artists, work Sam described as simply "making tools for artists." The first four years were financially challenging.

  • Colorful Language: Morris Louis, Formalist
    © COPYRIGHT by Paul Vincent 2014 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED To UNC-G professor Dr. Richard Gantt and my mother, for their inspiration and encouragement. COLORFUL LANGUAGE: MORRIS LOUIS, FORMALIST CRITICISM, AND MASCULINITY IN POSTWAR AMERICA BY Paul Vincent ABSTRACT American art at mid-century went through a pivotal shift when the dominant gestural style of Abstract Expressionism was criticized for its expressive painterly qualities in the 1950s. By 1960, critics such as Clement Greenberg and Michael Fried were already championing Color Field painting for its controlled use of color and flattened abstract forms. Morris Louis, whose art typifies this latter style, and the criticism written about his work provides a crucial insight into the socio-cultural implications behind this stylistic shift. An analysis of the formalist writing Greenberg used to promote Louis’s work provides a better understanding of not only postwar American art but also the concepts of masculinity and gender hierarchy that factored into how it was discussed at the time. ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to extend my thanks Dr. Helen Langa and Dr. Andrea Pearson for their wisdom, guidance, and patience through the writing of this thesis. I would also like to thank Dr. Juliet Bellow, Dr. Joanne Allen, and Mrs. Kathe Albrecht for their unwavering academic support.

  • Opticality and the Work of Morris Louis (1912-1962)
    CHAPTER 1 SITUATING MORRIS LOUIS 1912–1962 SITUATING MORRIS LOUIS 1912–1962 Although the work of the Washington–based artist Morris Louis (1912–62) is now discussed alongside some of the most well–known of the American abstract artists of the mid–twentieth century, much of Louis’ mature work, and arguably his most refined, was produced outside of public knowledge. For the majority of Louis’ career his work existed in relative obscurity, particularly in comparison with his contemporaries, artists such as Jackson Pollock (1912–56), Mark Rothko (1903–70) and Clyfford Still (1904–80). Being amongst the first generation of abstract artists in the United States, the newness of his abstract painting depended upon the endorsement of major critics for public appreciation.1 The critical recognition of Louis’ work emerged only with the support of Clement Greenberg in 1960, almost 30 years after he began working as an artist and only two years before his death. The timing of Greenberg’s writing positioned Louis amongst a new generation of artists including Frank Stella (1936 – ), Kenneth Noland (1924 –) and Jules Olitski (1922 –). Audiences were only beginning to appreciate Louis’ work as he entered the last phase of his career, and as such, the representation of Louis’ work only addressed a small period of his career. The limited exposure of Louis’ paintings prior to the early 1960s had major effects upon how his works were interpreted in the decades following his death. Many retrospectives and group exhibitions of Louis’ work came to relate his paintings to the work of younger artists engaging with ‘Colourfield’ abstraction.

  • The Airbrush and the Impact of the Conservation Treatment of Airbrushed Canvas Paintings
    NORTHUMBRIA UNIVERSITY An Investigation into the History of the Airbrush and the Impact of the Conservation Treatment of Airbrushed Canvas Paintings Mohamed Abdeldayem Ahmed Soltan PhD 2015 An Investigation into the History of the Airbrush and the Impact of the Conservation Treatment of Airbrushed Canvas Paintings Mohamed Abdeldayem Ahmed Soltan A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the University of Northumbria at Newcastle for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Research undertaken in the School of Arts and Social Sciences April 2015 Abstract The research considers whether traditional approaches to easel paintings conservation are appropriate for the treatment of air brush paintings. The objectives were: . To investigate the aesthetic and technical history of the airbrush . To investigate surface changes in paint layers . To investigate the appropriateness of traditional conservation treatments for airbrush paintings and evaluate alternative approaches Although the first airbrush was introduced in 1883 it was initially rejected by many fine art circles as being too ‘mechanical’. Airbrush techniques have been little discussed in the field of fine art and the field of the conservation of fine art. A mixed methodology was followed for this research, qualitative through literature review carried out in line with the interdisciplinary nature of the research, and quantitative through various approaches including surveys. One survey was carried out in order to establish the use of air brush techniques by artists and its eventual acceptance as a fine art technique. A second survey was conducted to discover how well conservators understood the degradation characteristics of air brush paintings and their appropriate treatment.

CONCLUSIONS AND DIRECTIONS FOR FURTHER RESEARCH 51 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS 53 REFERENCES 54 AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL STATEMENT 58 LIST OF ILLUSTRATIONS 58 APPENDICES 61 Davis, ANAGPIC 2015, 5 ABSTRACT This research was carried out in an effort to understand the history of Morris Louis’s Alpha (1960) and determine how that history impacts the options for remedial conservation treatment in the future. The painting presents an interesting challenge, from a conservation perspective, not only arising from its non-traditional original materials, but also resulting from its treatment history. Alpha was treated in the late 1970s in the studio of Margaret Watherston, who was, at the time, well known for her dramatic wet treatments of colorfield paintings. As few as six years following her treatment, Alpha began to exhibit disfiguring condition issues. This research reveals how Watherston’s materials have impacted the current condition of Alpha and proposes options for future treatment that are sympathetic to Louis’s vision and will allow the historically significant painting show its true colors once more. I. INTRODUCTION F IGURE 1 In 1964 the Albright Knox Art Gallery in Buffalo, NY acquired Alpha (1960), by the colorfield1 painter, Morris Louis. The work is characteristic of Louis’s Unfurled series, which he completed between 1960 and 1962, making Alpha an early work in the series.

ISSN 1753-9854 TATE’S ONLINE RESEARCH JOURNAL Conservation Concerns for Acrylic Emulsion Paints: A Literature Review Elizabeth Jablonski, Tom Learner, James Hayes and Mark Golden Detail from John Hoyland’s Saracen 1977, acrylic emulsion on canvas, taken in raking light from the right. © John Hoyland/Bridgeman Art Library Acrylic emulsion artists’ paints were received with much fanfare and excitement in the 1950s and 1960s. They embodied the characteristics that many artists had been searching for at that time, affording a means of expression that was distinct from oil painting and its associated history and traditions. As Kenneth Noland described it, ‘there was an urge to loosen painting. [These colours] released new kinds of tactile qualities’. 1 These synthetic paints produced films of great clarity and phenomenal elasticity, were easy to manipulate, could be painted directly onto supports, dried quickly, were thinned with water and exhibited high resistance to ultraviolet degradation. John Hoyland recalled, ‘I remember reading articles in magazines. They talked about the radiance of [acrylic paint] and the fluidity of it and that it would never yellow. It seemed exciting in the way people got excited about the use of plastics, aluminium and other industrial materials’. 2 Helen Frankenthaler , who switched from using oil paints to acrylic emulsions in the early 1960s, said: I changed to acrylics for a number of reasons. Once, I was told that they dry faster, which they do, and that they retain their original colour, which they do.
