Georgia O'Keeffe, Photographer
A groundbreaking introduction to the photographic work of an iconic modern artist The pathbreaking artist Georgia O'Keeffe (1887-1986) is revered for her iconic paintings of flowers, skyscrapers, animal skulls, and Southwestern landscapes. Her photographic work, however, has not been explored in depth until now. After the death of her husband, the photographer Alfred Stieglitz, in 1946, photography indeed became an important part of O'Keeffe's artistic production. She trained alongside the photographer Todd Webb, revisiting subjects that she had painted years before--landforms of the Southwest, the black door in her courtyard, the road outside her window, and flowers. O'Keeffe's carefully...
Navigating Women’s Friendships in American Literature and Culture
This volume presents a collection of critical essays that center women’s friendship in women’s literary and artistic production. Analyzing cultural portrayals of women’s friendships in fiction, letters, and film, these essays collectively suggest new models of literary interpretation that do not prioritize heterosexual romance. Instead, this book represents friendships as mature and meaningful relationships that contribute to identity formation and political coalition. Both the supportive and competitive aspects of friendships are shown to be crucial to women’s identities as individuals, political citizens, and artists. Addressing the complexities of how 20th- and 21st-century cultural texts construe women’s friendships as they navigate patriarchal institutions, this collection advances scholarship on friendship beyond men and masculine models.
The Art of Music
"The Art of Music takes the relationship between two of the more prominent and oft-intersecting branches of artistic creation as its subject. The liaison between music and the visual arts has inspired countless generations of artists. The two have had manifold complex interactions across all periods of history, in Western and non-Western contexts alike, yet their intersection has only become a rich vein for research by art historians and musicologists in the last thirty years. By tracing these relationships, new insights into the affinities of the arts become clear"--

Charles Reiffel
Charles Reiffel (1862-1942) is widely regarded today as one of the foremost figures of the California plein air school of landscape painting. This catalogue, accompanying an exhibition of the same name at The San Diego Museum of Art and San Diego History Center, aims to reevaluate Reiffel as a leading practitioner of Post-Impressionism in the United States. Reiffel trained as a lithographer and traveled, worked, and studied in Europe before establishing himself as an independent artist in Silvermine, Connecticut. He finally settled in San Diego in 1925. THere, he immersed himself for the remainder of his life in the landscape of Southern California, its coast and rolling hills, discovering i...

Zuiver en ontroerend beweegloos
Met Zuiver en ontroerend beweegloos. Prerafaëlitische sporen in de Belgische kunst en literatuur gaat de auteur op zoek naar restanten van de beroemde Engelse kunststroming uit het midden en de tweede helft van de negentiende eeuw in de Belgische kunst (schilderkunst) en literatuur van het fin de siècle. Cruciaal daarin zijn van prerafaëlitische zijde figuren als Dante Gabriel Rossetti, Ford Madox Brown en John Ruskin. Maar er waren een aantal continentale katalysatoren nodig die het prerafaëlitisme kenden en filterden in functie van een cultuurhistorische transfer naar onze contreien. Figuren als Pol de Mont, Jozef Muls, de gebroeders Khnopff, Charles van Lerberghe of Maurice Maeterlinc...
