Beacon Revisited
Beacon has long been recognized for its historic significance, scenic beauty, and vibrant diversity. Now, this city on the Hudson is undergoing a dramatic renaissance to become a center for the arts as home to one of the world's largest contemporary collections at Dia:Beacon, site of the renowned Tallix Art Foundry, and the address of an increasing number of independent galleries. In Beacon Revisited, informative text is artfully combined with more than two hundred illustrations-many of them never before published-to celebrate Beacon's rich history and its promising future.
Westfall Research
Jurien (George) Westfall (b.ca.1629) immigrated from Prussia to The Netherlands, and in 1642 immigrated to New Amsterdam, New York. He setted at Rensselaerwyck, New York, moving in 1653 to land near Kingston, New York, and married Maria Jansen. Includes other immigrant Westfalls, and some of their descendants.
Merleau-Ponty at the Gallery
Merleau-Ponty's phenomenological ontology engages deeply with visual art, and this aspect of his work remains significant not only to philosophers, but also to artists, art theorists, and critics. Until recently, scholarly attention has been focused on the artists he himself was inspired by and wrote about, chiefly Cézanne, Klee, Matisse, and Rodin. Merleau-Ponty at the Gallery expands and shifts the focus to address a range of artists (Giorgio Morandi, Kiki Smith, Cy Twombly, Joan Mitchell, and Ellsworth Kelly) whose work came to prominence in the second half of the twentieth century and thus primarily after the philosopher's death. Véronique M. Fóti does not confine her analyses to Merleau-Ponty's texts (which now importantly include his late lecture courses), but also engages directly with the art. Of particular concern to her is the art's ethical bearing, especially as related to animal and vegetal life. The book's concluding chapter addresses the still-widespread rejection of beauty as an aesthetic value.
