Book excerpt: Frederic Remington was born on October 4, 1861, in Canton, NewYork. Related to painter George Catlin and sculptor Earl W. Bascom, he attended the art school at Yale University, but dropped out when his father died and soon went west to Kansas City. He married Eva Caten in 1884 and after trying the frontier life, soon moved to Brooklyn. He began to submit illustrations, sketches, and other works for publication with the western theme. Much of his early work appeared in Collier?s and Harper?s.It was during this time that Remington?s art career bloomed and he developed into a prolific artist. In his sketches he portrayed the subject matter that most captivated his interests; horses, military and the western frontier. His technical ability to reproduce the physical beauty of the Western landscape made him a sought after illustrator, but it was his insight into the heroic nature of American settlers that made him great.Unlike Charlie Russell who lived the life of a wrangler, Remington spent little time out west, visiting the region briefly several months at a time when necessary. But he captured the scenes in a way that fueled the eastern fantasy of the ?Wild West? in a way that no one else did. He was just in time to show the west before the wilder elements were subdued and the inroads of civilization that ended the frontier lifestyle.This frisson of deadly excitement was what gave Remington his appeal.Remington briefly interrupted his work with western themes in 1898 when he went to Cuba as a war correspondent and illustrator during the Spanish Civil War. He was deeply disillusioned by the realities of war, finding it not heroic, but appalling. Retiring to an island retreat on the St. Lawrence River, he continued to perfect his craft, creating much of his most famous work.Remington, of course, was not just a painter. In the mid-1890s, he had turned his talent to sculpture and quickly mastered the medium. In bronzes such as ?The Bronco Buster? and ?The Cheyenne,? he gave ""Frederic Remington"" a new dimensionto his subjects, charging them with such detail, movement, and energy they seemed ready to leap to life.In 1908, Remington made his last trip west, and died after an emergency appendectomy led to peritonitis. His extreme obesity possibly led to his abdominal problems.Over the course of his career, Frederic Remington produced more than 3000 drawings and paintings and 22 bronze sculptures. Dramatic subjects, striking realism, powerful images: Remington?s art fired the American imagination,and his vision of the western character - independent, individual, and heroic - was the way Americans wanted to see themselves.Margaret Keenan shows off Remington?s talents in this large-format tribute to the artist with over 200 of his works.

Download or read book Frederic Remington Art Museum Collection written by Brian W. Dippie and published by Harry N. Abrams. This book was released on 2001-04-01 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few American artists are as enduringly popular as Frederic Remington (1861-1909). His bronzes and paintings of the American West have become iconic images, shaping the way Americans view the history of the West. This generously illustrated volume is the first to examine the exceptional collection of his works housed at the Frederic Remington Art Museum in Ogdensburg, New York. In his richly detailed portrait of the artist, Western art scholar Brian W. Dippie traces Remington's life and artistic development. Drawing extensively on Remington's letters, diaries, and other archival materials, Dippie explores some 100 of the most important works in the collection in the context of prevailing social, cultural, and political attitudes -- including the ethnic and racial stereotypes for which Remington's work is sometimes criticized today. An important addition to the Remington literature, this handsome volume highlights Remington's impressive range and underscores his achievements as an illustrator, sculptor, and painter.
Download or read book Remington Russell and the Language of Western Art written by Peter H. Hassrick and published by University of Washington Press. This book was released on 2000 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "As young men, Remington and Russell struck out for the West, seeking adventure and self-identity. Remington stayed for only one year, Russell for the rest of his life. But both eventually became artists, and both took as their subject the disappearing West and its people. Different in temperament and style, they became the focal point of a manufactured rivalry that dominated the American art scene at the turn of the twentieth century and in essence pitted East against West. Camps of followers developed, and duels were waged on their behalf in the press, although neither Remington nor Russell directly engaged in the rivalry.".
