This book was released on 2016-06-22 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Year Book of the Minnesota Society of New York, 1903-4 In earlier days before New York-3 had gamed this kind of primacy, people came here to 1dent1f v themselves with the town, and in so doing to lose altogether their identity with the places from which they came. In this later stage, however where New York no longer belongs to New Yorkers but to the whole country, and where it becomes necessary for almost every large busi ness to have its New York office, and for men ofdiverse or widespread interests to spend more or less of their time in New York - it has become entirely possible as well as highly proper that men should preserve their identity with the States or sections from which they come, while assuming their fair share of responsibility for the metrop olis itself. Thus it has come to pass that in recent years there has been a large growth of organizations and societies recognizing the desirability of preserving the home feeling and connection. The New England Society, of course, is of venerable origin, and the Southern Society is of ever-{swelling dimensions. The Ohio Society and the Pennsylvania Society have become bodies of influence, prestige, and impor tance. Besides these four, several other State societies have been formed, and among the most hopeful of these is the Minnesota Society, which is meant to include not merely the native sons of the splendid State at the headwaters of the Missis sippi, but also all others who by virtue of years Of residence and activity in Minnesota, or of other vital connection with the State, feel that it is both grateful and pleasant to avow and to preserve the memory of life spent in the State and of asso ciation with Minnesota's men of affairs. Where the nation has developed a real metropolis, the centripetal forces are bound to draw from every State a quota of active and energetic men to do their share of the business at the cen ter of things. Minnesota has, for a young State, certainly been drawn upon by New York for its full share. When in 1901 the Minnesota Society was tentatively organized, its projectors had in sight about fifty possible members. But in due time they found that there were in New York and vicinity a possible membership of several hundred eligible and desirable men. Of these the club has made a list of more than 300, of whom, at present, 128 have definitely joined the Society as resident members. There are, further more, a large number of well-known Minnesota men in public life, business life, and professional life, whose affairs frequently bring them to New York, and 137 of these are now enrolled by the Minnesota Society of New York as non-resident members. It is hoped that the resident mem bership may in the near future grow to at least 200, and that the non-resident membership may keep even pace.

Book Twenty first century Perspectives on Nineteenth century Art

Download or read book Twenty first century Perspectives on Nineteenth century Art written by Petra ten-Doesschate Chu and published by Associated University Presse. This book was released on 2008 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book presents an interdisciplinary and inclusive view of nineteenth-century art, observed from the vantage point of the new twenty-first century. The areas of expertise represented by the thirty essays herein span the full range of nineteenth-century studies, and include discussions of such artistic styles as realism, impressionism, romanticism, and art nouveau, as well as early twentieth-century movements that owe their formative influence to the nineteenth century. Topics span the historical gamut from revivalism to the roots of modernism, considering along the way such themes as the depiction of women, Orientalism, art criticism, evolutionary theory, political propaganda, history painting, landscape, and national identity. Aspects of art display, public monuments, and international exhibitions shed light on the roles of government and individuals in the dissemination of artistic styles and subject matter. Unique in this collection is an emphasis on the marketing of art, both in America and abroad, which considers the important financial and commercial issues that continue to influence viewers' beliefs and perceptions. Most important, this book demonstrates that the rich field of nineteenth-century studies continues to inspire discovery and creativity."--Publisher description.

  • Publisher : University of Delaware Press

  • Pages : 396 pages

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.
