Book excerpt: This catalogue for the Telfair Museum of Art’s exhibition Picturing Savannah: The Art of Christopher A. D. Murphy provides valuable information on Murphy’s life and career, documenting four decades of his finest work in all media: oils, watercolors, etchings, and pencil and charcoal drawings. Born in 1902, Murphy was one of Savannah’s most accomplished and beloved artists. After studying in New York City at the Art Students League, he returned to his native Savannah. He taught privately at the Telfair Academy of Arts and Sciences and at Armstrong College (now Armstrong Atlantic State University). In 1929, he helped found the Association of Georgia Artists and in 1947 he collaborated with Walter Hartridge on the book Savannah, providing drawings and etchings of his native city. Just as his success peaked in New York in 1929, the stock market crashed and Murphy found it necessary to return home to his family. Of all the artists who have taken Savannah and its environs as their primary inspiration, Murphy was among the most sensitive and skillful. He knew the city intimately and portrayed it in all its facets--elegant and shabby, rich and poor. His work ranged from refined portraits of Savannah’s elite to spontaneous depictions of African American children, from images of the city’s grand homes to renderings of rural farms and shanties. Murphy’s work captures a city in flux, a southern town slowly adopting a modern lifestyle. An incipient preservationist, Murphy documented many homes, neighborhoods, and landmarks that no longer exist. Murphy’s work was included in annual exhibits of the Southern States Art League and at the American Watercolor Society and was shown nationally and internationally at the Victoria and Albert Museum, the Cleveland Print Society, the Philadelphia Print Club, the Brooklyn Society of Etchers, the Savannah Art Club, and the Whitney Museum of American Art. He also contributed to such popular publications as Country Life, American Architect, House Beautiful, and Southern Architect. The show, which is installed at the Telfair Academy from February 6 through June 1, 2008, presents 80-100 works drawn from local private and corporate collections, from the Telfair Museum of Art’s nineteen holdings, and from holdings of the Morris Museum of Art in Augusta.

Download or read book Art and Power in the Central African Savanna written by Constantijn Petridis and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Revealing the powers immanent in works that the West long regarded only as exotic or abstract, Constantine Petridis looks beneath the surface of the arts of the Luba, Songye, Chokwe and Luluwa peoples to find, literally embedded in sculpture, the forces that enable the spirit world to intervene in daily life. Ritual use of these objects is expected to ensure a healthy birth, successful hunt, or triumph over an enemy. Analysis of the scholarly record illuminates the changing visions of leadership and prestige that fostered the development of the majestic, elaborate figure styles long prized in the West. These sculptures nevertheless retain the mysterious potency of more humble objects trusted for centuries to protect, heal and harm. Art and Power in the Central African Savanna examines an artistic culture in which the sacred and the secular are indivisible, and aesthetic and moral value inseparable.

Download or read book Classical Savannah written by and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 1995 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By the end of the eighteenth century, classicism, which arose out of Europe's fascination with ancient Greece and Rome, had also left its mark on America. This study of the classical style in the fine and decorative arts shows the extent to which it influenced the material culture of Savannah, Georgia, from 1800 to 1840. More than 130 examples of objects owned in Savannah in this period are illustrated, described, and discussed. The objects include oil paintings and watercolors, clocks, musical instruments, jewelry, sculptures, engravings, bank notes, needlework, china, silver, brass, lighting fixtures, architectural elements, and furniture. Page Talbott presents an overview of the origins of classicism in Europe and its spread to America. Emphasizing Americans' close identification of classicism with national values and ideals, Talbott also discusses the style in the context of Savannah's social life and its history as a major southern port. She covers not only the principles, methods, and materials of classical design, but also the manufacture, distribution, sale, and ownership of a wide range of functional and decorative objects. Classical Savannah is the companion volume to the Classical Savannah exhibition, which opened in the spring of 1995 at the Telfair Museum of Art in Savannah. Illustrating well over half of the items in the exhibit, and including a detailed checklist of the additional seventy objects not shown in the book, Classical Savannah is a valuable source for historians, designers, decorators, collectors, and anyone interested in this period of America's history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Savannah LaFleur. A young lady who could charm any man, but spent the last four years in a convent. With nothing left of her family but memories, she fled the war ravaged south — and a life chosen for her by her father. Her only destination — to get away. Although danger seemed to come at her from every direction, every step led her west to the little town of Whiskey Springs. And possibly an unexpected new place for herself. Jeb Wright. A man who could shoot the eyes out of a fly, but hated killing. A formidable officer in the northern army, he spent the last two years of the war locked away in a southern prison. After the war, a man accustomed to leading others, he struggled with no one to lead. He determined to put his life behind him. About as far away as possible, the little town of Whiskey Springs held promises of a new beginning. Jeb never expected to find a lady like Savannah on the frontier. A lady who saw the best in him. And Savannah never thought a hardened northern soldier like Jeb would turn her head. Would Whiskey Springs inspire a new start for both of them? A bold story of love and danger on the western frontier.
