New Media In Academia, Brett Stalbaum

Dosso Dossi, Garofalo, And The Costabili Polyptych: Imaging Spiritual Authority, Giancarlo Fiorenza

Art and Design

Recent debate over the chronology of the Costabili polyptych, painted for the high altar of S. Andrea in Ferrara, has overlooked the broader question of interpretation regarding its genesis following Ferrara's participation in the Cambrai Wars. This essay analyzes how the altarpiece negotiates the concept of "just war" while communicating God's peace and salvation. Especially relevant to interpreting the imagery are the writings of Andrea Baura and Antonio Meli, two contemporary Augustinian friars from S. Andrea, who offered new ways of reading Scripture to overcome Ferrara's historical and spiritual conflicts.

Water And Woodfiring, Richard Bresnahan

Asian Studies Faculty Publications

Part of a special section on the 1999 International Woodfire Conference. The technique of putting water into a high-temperature woodfired kiln is discussed. This 800-year-old technique is used to oxidize the environment, clear carbon, and quickly cool the pottery. It produces unique, beautiful textures and colors, particularly a rich earth-tone palette that cannot be paralleled by chemical glazes or other firing techniques. This technique was used in a Teppo-gama (gun kiln) based on designs from 12th-century Korean tunnel kilns, built on the island of Tanegashima, Japan, in 1969. The writer discusses the work of a number of artists who use …

Fort, Da: The World Of Play, Kevin Marc Ginger

Dissertations and Theses

The theoretical and contextual placement of my work is informed by child development psychology. The intention is to evoke and analyze what children do, not to imitate. My use of faux fur, comforting blankets and the form of play balls all function to create objects and environments that lend themselves to absurdity, humor, and of course child-like play.

"fort, da" is titled in spirit from Sigmund Freud's observation of a child throwing a toy with an accompanying statement fort, German for "gone." The child then delights in retrieving the object while exclaiming da or "here." The anxiety …

Sleight Of Hand: A Mystery Unveiled, Claudia Mederos

Dissertations and Theses

This thesis is an exploration in painting via approximately one hundred small works in acrylic, gouache, and graphite on paper. The written discussion clarifies my approach to this body of work: how it was conceived, the use of materials, as well as its purpose.

More specifically, I look toward the contemporary proliferation of visual media along with the concept of "art for art's sake" as influences. Surrealism and the revelation of the subconscious mind through painting are central topics. A tendency toward introspection, and subliminal sexuality along with the subconscious direction of mind, are brought to light by the use …

A Visual Interaction Of Rational And Intuitive Processes, Priscilla Hanson

Dissertations and Theses

The paintings in this exhibition are an investigation of the dichotomy between rational and intuitive processes. The scope ranges from a purely historical perspective to include personal history as well. The work references ancient mythologies and the ordering systems that humans have created to explain the world around them as an expression of rational processes. The objects and symbols used derive from my interest in archaeology, mythology, astrology, and astronomy of the ancient world. Most of the surface on my paintings is unstructured, consisting of loosely applied layers of paint and subtly shifting colors. Surfaces are built up through a …

Cross Racial Preferences In Viewing Sexually Explicit Material: A Comparison Between African-American And Caucasian Males, Boyd Randal Horton

All-Inclusive List of Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The present study investigated that extent to which the race of actors in an erotic video affected sexual arousal in African-American and Caucasian heterosexual males. It was hypothesized that the two racial groups would be significantly more sexually aroused while watching their respective homoethnic erotic video. The hypothesis was grounded in the modeling effects of Bandura's Social Leaning Theory (1977), the Matching Hypothesis (1982) and worldview differences between African-Americans and Caucasians (Baldwin and Bell, 1985). Thirty-four African-American and Caucasian males were shown homoethnic and non-homoethnic erotic videos while penile circumference, systolic and diastolic blood pressures, and self-report ratings of sexual …

Untitled Drawing Series: Influenced By A Mother And Child Relationship, Elaine A. Powell-Ascroft

Dissertations and Theses

The Drawing series presented in this thesis exhibition deals with the influence of a mother and child relationship. Beginning with pregnancy and following the physical relationship through the first year, these drawings reflect the changes of the interactions between the mother and the child as well as the mother and her environment.

The imagery is an abstract representation of this relationship. The intuitive process that is used to create this series, relies on formal elements of drawing which only suggest the influence of the mother and child relationship. It is the intuitive approach to these drawings that allows the emphasis …

Influence Of Nitrogen Gas And Oxygen Scavengers On Fading And Color Change In Dyed Textiles, Judy J. Brott Buss, Patricia Cox Crews

Department of Textiles, Merchandising and Fashion Design: Faculty Publications

Unexpected and undesired color changes in paper materials following the use of anoxic treatments for killing insects that infest col­lections have been reported. This observation and attendant concerns prompted this research. This study examined the influence of a nitrogen gas purge and oxygen scavengers on color stability of dyed textiles in the presence and absence of light. Earlier studies showed that while most dyed tex­tiles exhibit less fading and color change when oxygen is removed from the atmosphere via a nitrogen purge, a small number of dyes exhibit greater amounts of fading and color change in the presence of a …
