Valuation Of Historic American Picture Frames, 1650-1930, Virginia V. Van Rees May 1991

Valuation Of Historic American Picture Frames, 1650-1930, Virginia V. Van Rees

Theses

This study presents a systematic framework for the identification, classification, and valuation of historic American picture frames produced between 1650 and 1930. Traditionally, frames have been overlooked in art historical research, often treated as peripheral to the artworks they surround. However, frames provide critical insights into aesthetic trends, craftsmanship, and cultural values across multiple centuries of American decorative arts. The author outlines a methodology for assessing frame styles, construction techniques, and ornamentation in order to establish reliable standards for appraisal and cataloging.

The work traces the evolution of American frames from colonial adaptations of European models to the richly ornamented …


Symbols And Colors, Linda Eileen Thias May 1991

Symbols And Colors, Linda Eileen Thias

Theses

This thesis explores the creative process and thematic focus in the studio artwork of Linda Eileen Thias, with particular attention to the recurring motifs of orchids and fish. These natural forms serve as both visual inspiration and symbolic anchors in her artistic practice, reflecting her fascination with the elegance of organic design and its capacity for abstraction. The study examines how Thias interprets and reimagines these motifs through multiple mediums, including painting, ceramics, and fabric-based work, thereby creating a body of art that is both unified in theme and diverse in execution.

A key aspect of her process involves the …

Evaluation Of Milkweed Floss As An Insulative Fill Material&#;, Patricia Cox Crews, Shiela A. Sievert, Lisa T. Woeppel, Elizabeth A. Mccullough

Department of Textiles, Merchandising and Fashion Design: Faculty Publications

Milkweed, a perennial plant that can adapt to adverse soil conditions, is being developed as an alternative crop. Fiber characterization and potential market identification are critical to its development. The most promising commercial use for milkweed floss is as a loose fill for jackets and comforters. The purpose of this research was to evaluate milkweed floss as an insulative fill material and to compare its performance to other insulators. Seven identical jackets were constructed using different fill materials matched on a per unit weight basis. The insulation (clo) values for the jackets were measured using a standing, heated manikin in …

Perry Hoberman: Faraday's Garden, Museum Of Contemporary Art At Wright State University Feb 1991

Perry Hoberman: Faraday's Garden, Museum Of Contemporary Art At Wright State University

Exhibition and Program Catalogs

In Perry Hoberman's electronic garden, evocative of happier and simpler times when the American Dream was the "General Electric Home," the concept of sculpture is being redefined and stretched to its limits. Hoberman, in a sort of tribute to Michael Faraday's electronic genius, recycles outdated and, at times, archaic-looking household appliances and tools in our room-sized installation. In this expanded version of the original Faraday's Garden, which was exhibited in 1990 at Postmasters Gallery in New York City, each of the appliances is activated by walking on electronic footpads on the floor, resulting in a sculpture that seems to have …

Ray Ciarrochi: Landscapes 1978-91

November 15 to December 15, 1991

Marsh Art Gallery, University of Richmond Museums

Introduction

While apparently showing us a particular place, Ray Ciarrochi's landscapes are more about the exquisite moment of being in that place. His landscapes are at once aesthetic and metaphysical, achieving a unity of viewing nature with the transcendent power of that experience. His light, color, and paint carry us into a reflective mood where nature is calm and triumphant and we stand in harmony with our environment.

This exhibition covers the artist's involvement with the landscape over a span of thirteen years, …

Voyaging: William Bennett and Elizabeth Schoyer

February 14 to March 07, 1991

Marsh Art Gallery

Introduction

For both William Bennett, sculptor, and Elizabeth Schoyer, painter, art is a voyaging: invoking, acknowledging, celebrating the forces and mysteries of life's passages.

Bennett builds up, with stone, glass, copper, lights, and wood, exquisitely crafted monumental forms: The Voyage, The Boat over Ocean over Ocean, Stigmata, Bed of Dreams, Belly Scepter among them. The titles signal the theme of quest, while axial forms draw the viewing into ritual alignment. One come to Bed of Dreams as an altar; Stigmata, part anchor and part …
