Art or Craft? Page or Book? Essential or Ancillary? As these pairings propose, illustration engages the viewer in complex interrelated processes and hence functions very differently than other art forms. Image and text operate both independently and in combination as signifiers. Perhaps that is partially why we lack a critical framework with which to assess illustrated books. In this online course, we will use digital tools and collaborative technologies to develop evaluative criteria for the illustrated book and then apply this critical framework to an individually-selected case study. In addition to online learning, you will be handling books in Temple’s significant collection and encouraged to visit other rare book rooms in the area. The seminar will also assess relevant factors impacting the development of illustrated books, such as cultural diffusion and interchange; patterns of literacy and education; production markets and aesthetic value of craft. Additionally, in the last half of the course, the focus shifts to post-1850. We will consider arts and Crafts, livres d’artistes and contemporary artist’s books, addressing publishing technologies, current issues as well as noteworthy avant-garde exemplars. The course is designed to be relevant to Art History, MFA and MEd graduate students. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55a52ee4e4b0cfa99454163e/6a9bb8e9-629c-41b5-a3e5-0fd14848826f/IMG_1737.small.jpg Research, Teaching and Commentary https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55a52ee4e4b0cfa99454163e/1436900365756-GMF8SSQ6S3DN91J7NZ98/P1010114.JPG Research, Teaching and Commentary https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55a52ee4e4b0cfa99454163e/1436963788487-SJ7TXM1LW7PU30X8V4NC/IMG_0549.JPG Research, Teaching and Commentary https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55a52ee4e4b0cfa99454163e/1436964180775-MCQUL8FHT6PRP0PX6X35/Klimt+Judith-I+1901.jpg Research, Teaching and Commentary - Gustav Klimt, Judith I (Judith and Holofernes), 1901 Klimt portrays the heroine without the weapon she used in the biblical account and removed from the urgent need to save her people. Instead of being a warrior, she is a seductress in an erotic fantasy.

Burns and Alice M. Rudy Price. Routledge, 2021. ORDER This book offers microhistories related to the transnational circulations of impressionism in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The contributors rethink the role of "French" impressionism in shaping these iterations by placing France within its global and imperialist context and arguing that impressionisms might be framed through the mobility studies’ concept of "constellations of mobility." Artists engaging with impressionism in France, as in other global contexts, relied on, responded to, appropriated, and resisted elements of form and content based on fluid and interconnected political realities and market structures. Written by scholars and curators, the chapters demand reconsideration of impressionism as a historical construct and the meanings assigned to that term. This project frames future discussion in art history, cultural studies, and global studies on the politics of appropriating impressionism. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55a52ee4e4b0cfa99454163e/1436902650095-UIIIW4J2N0014WIPTB9G/Br%C3%B8ndums+Anneks Research, Teaching and Commentary - Reframing Anna Ancher Anna Ancher, Interior, Brøndum’s Annex, c. 1920. Link to Google Art Project file Reframing Anna Ancher: Danish Symbolist, Modernist and Independent Artist.” Ph.D. Dissertation. Temple University, Tyler School of Art. http://search.proquest.com/docview/1548981937. (Spring 2014) Historical analysis of artist Anna Ancher distorted her formal innovations and misidentified the cultural context due to a significantly biased lens, dominated by the written records of her husband and keyed to the goals and aspirations of the Modern Breakthrough. The chronological approach of my thesis facilitates examination of Ancher’s art in tandem with shifts in modernism and important relevant contextual developments beyond the immediate art colony in Skagen. Ancher never fully embraced any single modernist tendency, but through most of her life, a significant body of her painting conversed with the most recent discussions of what was new, experimental or innovative. Photographs and painted portraits of the artist indicate both her awareness of shifting fashions from the urban centers and of the associated change in gender roles, design concerns and normative expectations that accompanied the sartorial variations. Ancher kept abreast of cosmopolitan developments in art, theory and culture. http://www.alice-price-reframing-art.net/about daily 0.75 2026-06-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55a52ee4e4b0cfa99454163e/1436904771570-N7696JT61SY83FMMKOG2/Kystmuseet About Kystmuseet Denmark, September 2013 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55a52ee4e4b0cfa99454163e/607391d6-648d-4e1d-8010-277b1e6cde3a/IMG_2082.jpeg About - Make it stand out Exhibition poster for “Lifetime: Mature Women in the Arts”
