An extraordinary outburst of creative activity occurred among American printmakers between the years 1960 and 1990. New workshops sprang up, like Universal Limited Art Editions on Long Island and the Tamarind Lithography Workshop in Los Angeles, as well as small presses throughout the country. In contrast to traditional European studios, where professional printers reproduced artists' designs, the new American workshops emphasized collaboration between printer and artist, and radical experimentation with mediums and processes. This book shows how the new presses attracted an influx of talented people to printmaking during those years. Frank Stella, Robert Rauschenberg, Red Grooms, Jennifer Bartlett and Robert Longo are just a few of the artists whose work is illustrated here. Due to their achievement and that of other artists, printmaking became recognized as a major art form, and the climate of experimentation fostered by these workshops became a driving force in the contemporary art world. The book is published to coincide with an exhibition which opened at the Zimmerli Art Gallery, New Jersey in April 1995, and is travelling around the United States.

Traditionally a more intimate form of expression than painting or sculpture, works on paper-watercolors, pastels, and drawings-often reveal greater spontaneity and experimentation, and this catalog celebrates the extraordinary variety and accomplishment of American artists through 51 such works produced from the 1860s to the 1990s. Ranging from Thomas Moran's impression of Tower Falls in Yellowstone, and an Appledore Island garden by Childe Hassam, to Edward Hopper's river landscape and Charles Burchfield's intense abstractions, the watercolors express a breadth of experience from observation to hallucinatory imagination. records not only physical appearance but gives insight into the sitter's personality as well. And vivid images in glowing color by Stuart Davis and William H. Johnson, compared to confident black and white sketches by Willem De Kooning and Mel Bochner, reveal the diversity of approaches among such accomplished artists.(Tanitim Bulteninden)Sayfa Sayisi: 112Baski Yili:

Learn how to make more than 50 Mason jar projects, including luminaries, planters, and upcycled art, in this eagerly anticipated book for DIYers!
Mason Jar Nation begins by exploring the Mason jar's impact on America since its 1858 patent. Prior to the jar's invention, settlers had no reliable and safe way to store food for the winter, which required them to travel great lengths in difficult conditions and obtain expensive canned goods in order to survive. With its hermetically sealable two-piece lid and thick glass sides, the Mason jar changed the way mid-nineteenth century Americans fed their families.
Although the popularity of the jars ebbed significantly from the 1950s until the turn of the century, interest in them has exploded in the past few years. Ball, the biggest brand name in Mason jars today, has seen its sales double since 2001. Younger generations, including Millenials, have adopted the iconic jars as emblems of a more sustainable time. The humble Mason jar has been "discovered" as a versatile and beautiful material for creating craft items such as chandeliers, luminaries, planters, containers, and upcycled art.
The second half of Mason Jar Nation features over 50 of these adaptations, shown with clear photography, all designed and photographed by author JoAnn Moser, the "DIY Maven." Readers who appreciate American cultural history, making fun and affordable crafts, and Mason jars themselves will love this new book and its tall, narrow shape that's based on the proportions of the classic Mason jar.

Mason Jar Nation: The Jars that Changed America and 50 Clever Ways to Use Them Today

This volume celebrates the 20th anniversary of the founding of the American Art Forum, by presenting 72 treasured works of art selected by the curators of the Smithsonian American Art Museum. In six thematic and chronological sections, the curators cover the huge variety of American art: luminous images of nature from the mid-nineteenth century, such as Martin Johnson Heade’s Newburyport Meadows I, and fine landscape masterpieces in the Hudson River tradition, including Sanford Robinson Gifford’s The Marshes of the Hudson (1876); light-filled impressionist canvases, such as Mary Cassatt’s Reading Le Figaro” (1878); dazzling Gilded Age glass by Louis Comfort Tiffany and paintings by John Singer Sargent; gritty Ashcan records from a dynamic New York City, such as George Bellows’s Noon (1908); vivid aesthetic creations of the modern age; the triumphant abstract expressionism of Willem de Kooning; and resonant contemporary works by Andrew Wyeth and David Hockney. The book also showcases major canvases by Georgia O’Keefe, such as Black Cross with Red Sky (1929), John Marin’s Taos Canyon, New Mexico (1929), Cyrus Edwin Dallin’s major statue Appeal to the Great Spirit and James Earl Fraser’s emotive bronze sculpture End of the Trail (1918).
