The nation's oldest artist honorary society has maintained a unique collecting principle: each member gives a self-portrait (or, until 1994, a portrait by a contemporary Academician) as well as an example of their work. By presenting artists' portraits in tandem with their self-selected representative works, this book offers a unique opportunity to explore how American artists have viewed both themselves and the worlds they depicted. The diverse selection of artists whose work is showcased here includes Frederic Edwin Church, Eastman Johnson, Winslow Homer, John Singer Sargent, Thomas Eakins, Cecilia Beaux, Isabel Bishop, Andrew Wyeth, Charles White, Wayne Thiebaud, Louisa Matthiasdottir, David Diao, Jaune Quick-to-See Smith, and Peter Saul. Essays by a stellar roster of distinguished historians and art historians, curators, artists, and architects delve into single artworks or pairs of paintings, while others explore themes such the representation of landscapes and the figurative tradition in American art. Additionally, 17 current Academicians-visual artists and architects including Walter Chatham, Catherine Opie and Fred Wilson-contribute personal responses to individual artworks." - Publisher. *** CONTENTS: For America: An introduction, by Jeremiah William McCarthy and Diana Thompson; A first teacher and the resonance of miniature paintings: Samuel F.B.

In that year, the National Academy of Design in New York began a series of annual exhibitions featuring works by 200 to 300 artists, and for decades afterward this venerable institution led the way in introducing important new talent to the art world. Until the advent of Modernism in the early 20th century, the Academy remained one of only a few venues to regularly exhibit contemporary art. Rave Reviews explores the role that these exhibitions played in the development of American art criticism and the dissemination and marketing of American art. Rave Reviews is the first book to combine essays on the development of art criticism with illustrations of many of America's best-loved masterpieces. Works by artists such as Thomas Cole, Winslow Homer, Harriet Hosmer, John Singer Sargent, Augustus Saint-Gaudens, Thomas Eakins, Anna Hyatt Huntington, John Sloan, and Charles Hawthorne are examined through the critical commentary of their time, giving readers a fresh look at the art world between 1826 and 1925." - Publisher. *** CONTENTS: An introduction to the history of American art criticism to 1925, by David B.

Square quarto, russet cloth (hardcover), gilt letters, xi, 205 pp. Fine in a Fine dust jacket. From dust jacket: This fascinating book explores the history, techniques, and cultural significance of medieval aquamanilia, cast metal objects used to pour liquids in both religious and secular rituals. Often created in appealing animal or human forms, aquamanilia feature two openings, one for filling and the other for pouring. They represent the first emergence of hollow-cast vessels in Western Europe and a significant development in the history of technology. The Metropolitan Museum of Art houses one of the world's most important collections of these medieval bronze vessels and this landmark book results from a collaborative project between the Bard Graduate Center for Studies in the Decorative Arts, Design, and Culture, and the museum. It presents and catalogues the museum's entire aquamanilia collection for the first time, as well as selected examples from other collections and other related medieval objects. Informative essays by the curators discuss the meaning, usage, and stylistic development of the aquamanile as well as recent technological discoveries concerning aquamanilia and medieval metalworking. A DVD reveals the original techniques employed to make aquamanilia. Antiques & Collectibles, Middle Ages, Metalwork, European History zslic.
