Download or read book Minnesota 1900 written by Michael Conforti and published by University of Delaware Press. This book was released on 1994 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book examines advances in architecture, design, and painting in a region widely recognized for its contribution to the Arts and Crafts and Prairie School movements. It features the work of many well-known American artists, including the architects Cass Gilbert, Harvey Ellis, Frank Lloyd Wright, Purcell and Elmslie, ceramicist and Arts and Crafts philosopher Ernest Batchelder, and the painters Homer Dodge Martin and Alexander Fournier. The six essays also focus on the ceramic and metalwork production of the Handicraft Guild of Minneapolis, the Craftshouse of John Bradstreet, and American Indian art and artifacts created both for native and white use at the time." "Alan Lathrop discusses Minnesota architecture by combining his knowledge of architectural practitioners of the time with an awareness of international stylistic trends, particularly the tradition of the Ecole des Beaux-Arts, in this first overview of the state's architecture of the period ever published. Michael Conforti and Jennifer Komar link the development of retailing in the late nineteenth century to the interior design practice and Arts and Crafts production of John Bradstreet. Thomas O'Sullivan provides a study of Robert Koehler, one of the region's most respected painters, while he reviews the work of over two dozen of the state's other painters working at the time." "The special communal nature of Minnesota's artistic life is emphasized in Marcia Anderson's contribution. Her study of the Handicraft Guild of Minneapolis presents years of archival research on the Guild which she presents in the context of the international Arts and Crafts movement. Mark Hammons provides the first monograph ever published on the architectural partnership of Purcell and Elmslie, the most commissioned architects of the Prairie School after Frank Lloyd Wright. Hammons analyzes the team-centered working process of the firm and relates their creative process and formal vocabulary to the contemporary metaphysical discourse that was the foundation of their architectural philosophy. Louise Lincoln and Paulette Molin study the nature of relationships between whites and the Chippewa and Dakota Indians in their discussion of native material culture. Lincoln and Molin decode a complex, nuanced cultural interchange embodying both traditional and assimilationist trends. Their essay is the first in-depth examination of the range of American Indian art from this region; one that considers both objects crafted for native use and those produced for the tourist market."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Book excerpt: This stunning publication showcases the Art Institute's important and growing collection of twentieth-century American ceramics, furniture, glass, and metalwork. Colorful, engaging essays explore approximately forty of the museum's most fascinating decorative objects, introducing readers to major design trends such as Art Moderne, streamlining, and organicism. They also illuminate the creations, philosophies, and personalities of important twentieth-century designers such as Charles and Ray Eames, Paul T. Frankl, and Eva Zeisel. Never before published as a collection, the Art Institute's works also reveal modernism's impact on the collectors, designers, and retailers of decorative art in Chicago. An introduction by Judith A. Barter, Field-McCormick Curator of American Arts, focuses on the history and philosophy of modernist design, and in particular on the shifting nature of modernism's democratic and utopian impulses. Situating the Art Institute's holdings within the context of American modernism, author Jennifer M. Downs explores how twentieth-century interiors and furnishings were influenced by contemporary movements in architecture and the fine arts, and by major events such as the 1925 Paris "Exposition internationale des arts decoratifs et industriels modernes," the Great Depression, Chicago's 1933 "Century of Progress International Exposition," and World War II. A striking, definitive guide to an increasingly important collection, Shaping the Modern will appeal to modern-design collectors and enthusiasts alike.
