René Lalique: A Biographical And Stylistic Analysis Of Two Areas Of Influence - Classical And Japanese Art, Judith Gayle Booth Dec 1970

René Lalique: A Biographical And Stylistic Analysis Of Two Areas Of Influence - Classical And Japanese Art, Judith Gayle Booth

Art & Art History ETDs

One of the outstanding artists of the Art Nouveau period was the French jeweler René Lalique. Despite the designation of Lalique as "les plus ropresentatif de l 'Art Nouve.1u" very little research has been done on him or the sources of his unusual jewelry. The dual purpose of this study is to establish a biography of Lalique and present a stylistic analysis of two of his sources: Classical and Japanese art. It is hoped that an analysis of the career and sources of this major figure will aid in producing a deeper understanding of the French Art Nouveau movement.

Recent Developments In Representational Painting, William Arthur Richards Aug 1970

Recent Developments In Representational Painting, William Arthur Richards

Art & Art History ETDs

Continuing since its eminence in the High Renaissance during the Fifteenth Century in Europe, representation had been the predominant mode of painting until the early decades of the Twentieth Century. This form also has firm foundations in America's artistic heritage. The progress and momentum of realistic painting, however, was to a large extent eclipsed during the late 1940's and 1950's by non-objective painting, particularly Abstract Expressionism. Unexpectedly the recent decade has seen numerous artists who have shown a renewed interest in representation as a basis for painting.

This study surveys the productions of these painters, probinR into their artistic ambitions, …

Art At The "Mexican Front": Robert Henri, George Wesley Bellows And Leon Kroll In New Mexico, 1916-1922, Denise Catherine Melnick

Art & Art History ETDs

In the decade following the Armory Show of 1913, New York City lost its appeal for many painters. Disillusioned by the rivalry between various artists’ groups, the attitude of a smug public and prevented from visiting Europe by the outbreak of the First World War, many artists migrated from New York to explore various regions of the United States in order to find new and stimulating subjects to paint. A number of New York artists, attracted by the landscape, the colorful Indian and Mexican population and the democratic exhibition policies of the museum of New Mexico, visited the art colonies …


Navajo Pictorial Weaving: Its Past And Present Condition, Dorothy Elizabeth Boyd May 1970

Navajo Pictorial Weaving: Its Past And Present Condition, Dorothy Elizabeth Boyd

Art & Art History ETDs

The purpose of this study is to describe and classify a type of Navajo weaving usually termed the pictorial which has never been treated in all aspects by any single author. The term "pictorial" is used in this study to indicate any blanket or rug in which naturalistic motifs or intelligible lettering are used for their decorative or expressive qualities rather than for their ritual connotations or the sole purpose of permanently recording ritual designs such as sandpainting rugs. After reviewing anthropological literature relating to Navajo weaving and culture, extensive study was conducted on pictorials owned by various Southwestern museums. …

European And Japanese Influences On Winslow Homer's Early Oil Paintings, 1859-1876, Cleta Honeyman Downey Feb 1970

European And Japanese Influences On Winslow Homer's Early Oil Paintings, 1859-1876, Cleta Honeyman Downey

Art & Art History ETDs

Winslow Homer has often been described as the "most American" painter. Many of Homer's biographers claim that he was not affected by the artistic movements taking place in Europe in the la e 1850's and 60's. They tend to discount Homer's ten month stay in Paris and state that the influences he must have e countered there did not affect his work. This paper pro es that Homer was influenced by the new artistic innovations occurring in France during this period and that he w1as prepared to accept and assimilate them because of a previous acquaintanceship with contemporary European art …
