Book Early Architecture in New Mexico

Download or read book Early Architecture in New Mexico written by Bainbridge Bunting and published by Albuquerque : University of New Mexico Press. This book was released on 1976 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This lavishly illustrated account of sixteen hundred years of New Mexico's architectural history is the first comprehensive treatment of the subject. Emphasizing secular buildings, noted architectural historian Bainbridge Bunting begins by describing the fourth-century pithouses of the Basket Makers and goes on to examine the buildings of the Pueblo Indians and the architecture of the Spanish Colonial, Mexican, and Territorial New Mexican periods. His discussion of Pueblo buildings covers material rarely dealt with in the study of architecture. Bunting makes the reader aware not only of the evolutionary process in New Mexico architecture, but also of the strong sense of continuity that characterizes it. Although such events as the American takeover of the area in 1848 and the arrival of the railroad in 1880 led to major modifications in New Mexico's architectural repertoire, pre-American and pre-Hispanic styles have survived as dominant architectural models. The result of twenty-five years of research, this book grew out of a series of lectures delivered in 1973 to the Hispanic Preservation Division of the Graduate School of Architecture and Planning of Columbia University. It will appeal not only to architects and historians but to general readers interested in touring or in duplicating examples of New Mexico's rich architectural heritage.--Cover

Book Museums and Public Art

    Book Details:
  • Author : Cher Krause Knight
  • Publisher : Cambridge Scholars Publishing
  • Release : 2018-06-11
  • ISBN : 1527512002
  • Pages : 328 pages

Download or read book Museums and Public Art written by Cher Krause Knight and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2018-06-11 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While many museums have ignored public art as a distinct arena of art production and display, others have – either grudgingly or enthusiastically – embraced it. Some institutions have partnered with public art agencies to expand the scope of special exhibitions; other museums have attempted to establish in-house public art programs. This is the first book to contextualize the collaborations between museums and public art through a range of essays marked by their coherence of topical focus, written by leading and emerging scholars and artists. Organized into three sections it represents a major contribution to the field of art history in general, and to those of public art and museum studies in particular. It includes essays by art historians, critics, curators, arts administrators and artists, all of whom help to finally codify the largely unwritten history of how museums and public art have and continue to intersect. Key questions are both addressed and offered as topics for further discussion: Who originates such public art initiatives, funds them, and most importantly, establishes the philosophy behind them? Is the efficacy of these initiatives evaluated in the same way as other museum exhibitions and programs? Can public art ever be a “permanent” feature in any museum? And finally, are the museum and public art ultimately at odds, or able to mutually benefit one another?
