Scholarly essays on the achievements of female artists working in and inspired by the American South Looking back at her lengthy career just four years before her death, modernist painter Nell Blaine said, "Art is central to my life. Not being able to make or see art would be a major deprivation." The Virginia native's creative path began early, and, during the course of her life, she overcame significant barriers in her quest to make and even see art, including serious vision problems, polio, and paralysis. And then there was her gender. In 1957 Blaine was hailed by Life magazine as someone to watch, profiled alongside four other emerging painters whom the journalist praised "not as notable women artists but as notable artists who happen to be women." In Central to Their Lives, twenty-six noted art historians offer scholarly insight into the achievements of female artists working in and inspired by the American South. Spanning the decades between the late 1890s and early 1960s, this volume examines the complex challenges these artists faced in a traditionally conservative region during a period in which women's social, cultural, and political roles were being redefined and reinterpreted. The presentation—and its companion exhibition—features artists from all of the Southern states, including Dusti Bongé, Anne Goldthwaite, Anna Hyatt Huntington, Ida Kohlmeyer, Loïs Mailou Jones, Alma Thomas, and Helen Turner. These essays examine how the variables of historical gender norms, educational barriers, race, regionalism, sisterhood, suffrage, and modernism mitigated and motivated these women who were seeking expression on canvas or in clay. Whether working from studio space, in spare rooms at home, or on the world stage, these artists made remarkable contributions to the art world while fostering future generations of artists through instruction, incorporating new aesthetics into the fine arts, and challenging the status quo. Sylvia Yount, the Lawrence A. Fleischman Curator in Charge of the American Wing at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, provides a foreword to the volume. Contributors: Sara C.

An exciting study of the social and landscape phenomena of the Estate Landscape. In recent years, the post-medieval landscape has attracted new interest from archaeologists, historians, and geographers concerned to understand the development of the historic environment. One of the key structuring elements within these landscapes from the sixteenth century until the aftermath of the Second World War was undoubtedly the landed estate. However, it was not until the late nineteenth century that any systematic attempt to quantify the presence of these estates was undertaken, prompted by the move to democratic reform and the persistent link between political power and landed wealth. Yet the importance of the landed estate in structuring power, social relationships, and both agricultural and industrial production was not limited to the UK. From the eighteenth century, the link between the UK estates and patterns of landholding and exploitation in the colonies became increasingly complex and recursive. This volume explores the relationships between the form and structure of British and Colonial estate landscapes, their agricultural management and the political structures and social relationships they reproduced. The articles address themes as diverse as the creation and development of the agrarian landscape, improvement, ornamental landscapes and gardens and estate architecture. Overall, it highlights the wealth and diversity of existing scholarship and suggests new directions for post-medieval archaeology in this dynamic area of research.

"In 1875 Anne Whitney traveled to Florence, Italy, to select the marble for a statue of Samuel Adams commissioned for the U.S. Capitol. That summer, in a small village outside Paris, she noticed a woman who worked as a model for the local sculptors. Not the typical artists model, the woman was quite old and would often drowse while sitting for them, her kerchiefed head fallen forward in sleep. Later, when Whitney returned to America, she brought with her not only the completed statue for her respectable commission but the far less conventional Le Modèle, a deeply human image of the old woman. Created at a time when such subjects as the old and the poor were rarely given attention, Whitney's sculpture is highly innovative for its day. Charlotte Streifer Rubinstein's American Women Sculptors: A History of Women Working in Three Dimensions chronicles the lives and works of hundreds of women such as Anne Whitney, telling of their public successes, their private sensibilities and visions, their unique contributions to their chosen art form as women and as individuals. Rich in anecdote and analysis, the book brings to life their personal stories and the times they lived in to create an intimate yet wide-reaching portrait. It is the first comprehensive survey of the American woman's generous contribution to the sculpted form. From small garden bronzes and portrait busts to large-scale equestrian monuments and war memorials, the works of American women sculptors stand in parks, plazas, and public buildings across the country. Often struggling to overcome the persistent obstacle of sexism - and for women of color, racism - these women took part in every significant art movement of their time: they were neoclassicists who worked in marble in Rome, modernists who brought cubism and abstract sculpture to the United States, leaders among the artists of the Harlem Renaissance, and abstract expressionists, minimalists, and installation artists. Yet despite this continuous history of achievement, their stories have gone largely untold, their contributions often unrecognized. As Rubenstein writes in her introduction, "How many of the thousands who pass Bethesda Fountain in Central Park know that it was created by a woman?" Rubenstein takes as her starting point in this history the expressive masks, basketry, and ceramics of pre-Colonial Native American women rarely included in traditional art surveys. Following are Patience Wright, considered by many to be America's first professional sculptor; the women sculptors of the Gilded Age, whose creativity flourished under the influence of the suffrage movement; the women who worked for the Federal Art Project during the Depression, among the founding members of the Sculptor's Guild, and such important abstract sculptors as Louise Nevelson and Louise Bourgeois. The author concludes with the contributions of such young contemporary sculptors as Maya Lin, whose Vietnam Veterans Memorial Wall has become one of the country's landmarks. Both major and lesser-known artists are included, and the more conventional definitions of sculpture expanded to consider artists working in a variety of three-dimensional forms. Rubinstein discusses the works of weavers, potters, furniture carvers, and even performance artists, acknowledging the enormous influence women have had in these endeavors. Throughout the book Rubinstein illuminates the works themselves and the artists' techniques with detailed description and commentary, while the text is complemented by more than 300 illustrations. American Women Sculptors will be valued for the author's meticulous research and enjoyed for her appreciation of storytelling. It celebrates a rich, lively history." --
