Download or read book Western Art Western History written by Ron Tyler and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2019-03-07 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For nearly half a century, celebrated historian Ron Tyler has researched, interpreted, and exhibited western American art. This splendid volume, gleaned from Tyler’s extensive career of connoisseurship, brings together eight of the author’s most notable essays, reworked especially for this volume. Beautifully illustrated with more than 150 images, Western Art, Western History tells the stories of key artists, both famous and obscure, whose provocative pictures document the people and places of the nineteenth-century American West. The artists depicted in these pages represent a variety of personalities and artistic styles. According to Tyler, each of them responded in unique ways to the compelling and exotic drama that unfolded in the West during the nineteenth century—an age of exploration, surveying, pleasure travel, and scientific discovery. In eloquent and engaging prose, Tyler unveils a fascinating cast of characters, including the little-known German-Russian artist Louis Choris, who served as a draftsman on the second Russian circumnavigation of the globe; the exacting and precise Swiss artist Karl Bodmer, who accompanied Prince Maximilian of Wied on his sojourn up the Missouri River; and the young American Alfred Jacob Miller, whose seemingly frivolous and romantic depictions of western mountain men and American Indians remained largely unknown until the mid-twentieth century. Other artists showcased in this volume are John James Audubon, George Caleb Bingham, Alfred E. Mathews, and, finally, Frederic Remington, who famously sought to capture the last glimmers of the “old frontier.” A common thread throughout Western Art, Western History is the important role that technology—especially the development of lithography—played in the dissemination of images. As the author emphasizes, many works by western artists are valuable not only as illustrations but as scientific documents, imbued with cultural meaning. By placing works of western art within these broader contexts, Tyler enhances our understanding of their history and significance.

Download or read book The American West written by Suzan Campbell and published by Western Edge Press. This book was released on 2001 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The West is America. When considered through time and space, the West embraces the entire North American continent and its history. Just as there is no one true West, there is no one kind of western art. Through the linked, sometimes overlapping, themes of people, places, and ideas, art of the West can be viewed in ways not bounded by traditional notions, offering myriad meanings as well as an exciting and rewarding new appreciation for America, Americans, and American art." "The Rockwell Museum in Corning, New York, was founded in 1976 to house and exhibit fine collections of western art, Carder glass, guns, and antique toys. In 2000, the Museum's Board of Trustees decided to reinvent the Museum, focusing and building on its collections of western and Native American art. In 2001, the Rockwell Museum reopened as the Rockwell Museum of Western Art. With this catalog, the Rockwell Museum of Western Art is pleased to present highlights of its splendid collection of western and Native American art -- truly, "the best of the West in the East."
