Download or read book American Lithographers 1900 1960 written by Clinton Adams and published by Albuquerque : University of New Mexico Press. This book was released on 1983 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chronicling the developments and significance of lithography in the United States, Adams offers not only a detailed survey of the medium between 1900 and 1960, but also a personal recollection of the many figures who shaped its course. He presents the story of the artists and their printers, their personal interrelationships, and their creative work in what he calls a "beautiful but obstinate medium." While the names of printers Albert Sterner, Bolton Brown, George Miller, and Joseph Pennell are pivotal in this story, most of the leading artists of the century have been attracted to lithography, among them George Bellows, Thomas Hart Benton, Stuart Davis, Reginald Marsh, Jackson Pollock, and Charles Sheeler.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Westward expansion in the United States was deeply intertwined with the technological revolutions of the nineteenth century, from telegraphy to railroads. Among the most important of these, if often forgotten, was the lithograph. Before photography became a dominant medium, lithography—and later, chromolithography—enabled inexpensive reproduction of color illustrations, transforming journalism and marketing and nurturing, for the first time, a global visual culture. One of the great subjects of the lithography boom was an emerging Euro-American colony in the Americas: Texas. The most complete collection of its kind—and quite possibly the most complete visual record of nineteenth-century Texas, period—Texas Lithographs is a gateway to the history of the Lone Star State in its most formative period. Ron Tyler assembles works from 1818 to 1900, many created by outsiders and newcomers promoting investment and settlement in Texas. Whether they depict the early French colony of Champ d’Asile, the Republic of Texas, and the war with Mexico, or urban growth, frontier exploration, and the key figures of a nascent Euro-American empire, the images collected here reflect an Eden of opportunity—a fairy-tale dream that remains foundational to Texans’ sense of self and to the world’s sense of Texas.

Download or read book Prints and Printmakers of New York State 1825 1940 written by David Tatham and published by Syracuse University Press. This book was released on 1986-08-01 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For well over a century, New York has been a microcosm of the art and craft of American printmaking. Until 1825, printmaking in America was almost entirely an artisan's craft. Then, with the arrival of lithography, the realization arose that printmaking could also be a fine art. The essays published in this collection contribute to the body of scholarship by identifying important but hitherto insufficiently studied aspects of the graphic arts and treating them authoritatively. Their subjects concern prints in New York State, whose great metropolitan city was, after 1825, the acknowledged center of nearly everything important in the graphic arts in the U.S. The history of American prints from 1825 on is enormously rich, yet until the 1970s it was the least studied and understood aspect of the history of art in North America. It is a history more deeply rooted in popular culture and more closely tied, for a long time, to the world of commerce than the other arts. The usually small-scale, sometimes ephemeral, and often highly subtle (or highly unsubtle) nature of prints makes it easy to overlook them. The collection of essays included here were originally presented at the Twelfth Annual North American Print Conference, held in 1981 in Syracuse, New York. Locally organized, these conferences have been held during the last decade throughout the U.S. and Canada to further the study of the history of the pictorial graphic arts in North America. Contributors include several leading historians of the graphic arts of nineteenth-century America. Their chapters bring to life and flesh out figures who were previously little more than names, establish facts that correct long-held erroneous assumptions, introduce many prints of exceptional interest that have remained out of the public view for generations, and provide a rich, new context for many familiar images.
