Not Dead At All, Martin Becerra
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Not Dead At All is a nontraditional thesis, a creative product, the result of a combination of media production and social research.

Women Of The 1913 Armory Show : Their Contributions To The Development Of American Modern Art., Jennifer Pfeifer Shircliff
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
This dissertation is the first comprehensive study of women’s involvement in the 1913 Armory Show as financial backers, art collectors, and artists. The Association of American Painters and Sculptors organized this seminal exhibition, which represents a pivotal change in the course of artistic developments in the early twentieth century. For the first time in American history, the public could view contemporary works of art created by both Europeans and Americans in a huge exhibition.

Electronic Theses and Dissertations
This thesis explores the evolution of my artwork with synthetic materials through influences of the Minimalist and Process Artists of the 1960's and 1970's, inspiration from natural forms, and my exploration of concrete painting. Each work reveals discoveries of different processes and materials, accelerating the creation of new works. It is my hope this thesis will inform viewers about the process and concepts that my work embodies.

By working with …
Infrastructure, Scott S. Foxx
Infrastructure, Scott S. Foxx
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The paintings in this series depict sensations and forms drawn from a collaged, painted surface, referencing examples of painting from the Early Renaissance and the pure Formalism of the mid 20th century. Collage materials lend both conceptual and physical directions to the compositions, in that it is symbolic of the multi layered experience of modern people in a technological society. Imitating painting’s gestural, linear energy in an illusory manner, the paper and paint layers invert expected hierarchies of space. I am analyzing the condition of the painter, the ideas of painting as an activity and product, with myself at …
