An exhibit featuring The Wizard of Oz, at the Academy of Motion Pictures in Los Angeles, Sept. 22, 2021. While the cinematic objects on display fascinate, the much-delayed institution opens with an emphasis on diversity and pluralism, not past and present sins. Justin Chung/The New York Times.
by Manohla Dargis
LOS ANGELES, CA.- Tucked in the new Academy Museum of Motion Pictures, which opened Thursday in Los Angeles, is a surprisingly modest exhibit of significant Oscars. The museum, after all, is the latest venture of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, the organization that each year entertains, inflames and invariably stupefies movie lovers of every taste and critical persuasion with that gaudy bacchanalia of self-love known as the Oscars. Given the academys focus on all things Oscar, its latest production could have played up the event even more than it does. Yet while the awards invariably loom large, as does Hollywood this is very much an academy endeavor, as the many nods to Steven Spielberg underscore the long-delayed museum has embraced a tricky, complicated brief to accentuate the positive, to borrow the title of an Oscar-nominated song. The industrys ugliness, its racism and sexism, is directly addressed, but the emphasis is on diversity and plural ... More |

Susan Schwalb (b. 1944), Parchment (4V81). Copperpoint fire smoke on clay coated paper.
LONDON.- The Courtauld announced that it has acquired eight drawings by the American artist Susan Schwalb (b.1944), one of the foremost figures in the revival of the metalpoint technique. The new acquisitions represent Schwalbs career from the earliest Parchment (4/V/81) of 1981 to Harmonizations #3 of 2017. Seven of the metalpoint drawings have been purchased through a generous gift of the Tavolozza Foundation, with one further work donated by the artist. The works are a significant addition to The Courtaulds small collection of metalpoint drawings, and enhance the representation of female, as well as American, artists in the gallerys collection of contemporary works on paper. In May 2019, Schwalb was invited by The Courtaulds Research department to give a seminar on the metalpoint drawing technique and it was this close encounter with her work that generated The Courtaulds interest in her ...

This exhibition surveys 38 works in abstraction across a variety of disciplines including oil on canvas, charcoal on paper, ink on rice paper and silkscreen print. The works on display which were done from 2006 and 2019 exemplify Ho Kans unique lexicon of treating geometric abstraction (commonly referred to as cold abstraction) with the warmth of calligraphy and Eastern thoughts. Minimalism and geometric abstraction were responses in formulating our aesthetics in accordance with standardized production in the post-industrial era. This perspective is designed to be appreciated without a focal point or center of gravity; any color field ... More | |

Julian Onderdonk (American, 1882-1922), In the Mesquite Brush, South West Texas, 1915 (detail). Oil on canvas laid on board, 12 x 18 inches. Estimate: $30,000 - $50,000.
DALLAS, TX.- Rare works by two of the most popular and important Texas artists each could bring $50,000 or more in Heritage Auctions' Texas Art event Oct. 23. "The popularity of Julian Onderdonk and David Bates is as high as ever," Heritage Auctions Texas Art Director Atlee Phillips said. "They're sold in Texas because Texas collectors are so passionate about them, and they are so identified as Texas. But that doesn't mean they don't fit in to the larger story of American Art, and they couldn't sell easily in one of our American Art auctions. "Texas art is a really big category, and it's as diverse as the state itself, and the works in this auction really reflect that diversity. Part of the appeal is that, because people have such strong feelings for the artists and for the state itself, people really want to keep it and not let it go. So when you have a ... More | |
Katie van Scherpenberg, Vista sobre o amazonas [Overlooking the amazon], 2010 - 2017 (detail). Tempera, oil and collage on marine plywood, 112 Ã 162 cm.
LONDON.- Cecilia Brunson Projects is presenting Overlooking the Amazon, the first exhibition of Katie Van Scherpenberg in the UK. With a career spanning more than five decades, Van Scherpenberg is one of the most remarkable painters to have emerged in Brazil during the second half of the 20th century. An important figure in the Rio de Janeiro art circuit in the 1970s and 1980s, the artist was never affiliated to any groups or movements. Instead, she pursued an extremely original and coherent trajectory which remains largely unknown to international audiences. Born in São Paulo in 1940 to a diplomat father, Katie Van Scherpenberg spent her childhood and youth between Brazil and Europe, initially returning to Rio de Janeiro in 1964 after having spent two years (1961-63) studying in Munich with Georg Brenninger (1909- ...

Iconic Moon landing image rockets past previous records in September auction
DALLAS, TX.- In the summer of 1969, NASA's Apollo 11 lunar landing mission famously resulted in "one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind." Now, more than 50 years later, an iconic photograph from the groundbreaking mission has experienced a giant leap of its own. On Sept. 24, during Heritage Auctions' Images of Apollo: The J.L. Pickering Collection Signature Auction, the legendary image known simply as "Visor" landed a winning bid of $125,000 a record-breaking price for a vintage print of the history-making photograph and possibly a record for any 8x10 NASA photo. "The bidding for this photo was unforeseen," says Brad Palmer, consignment director/cataloger for Heritage's Space Exploration department. "We can't find anything close to it. These prints are becoming more and more coveted among collectors." Part of space historian ... More
Norman Rockwell's 1945 masterwork Home for Thanksgiving makes its auction debut
DALLAS, TX.- For years, the painting hung in the hallway of a Massachusetts American Legion Post alone, unattended, on a wall near the front door. "Where anyone could have walked out with it," Ken LaBrack says with a small laugh. For years, no one cared too much about the fate of the painting, because they thought it was nothing more than a reproduction of Norman Rockwell's Home for Thanksgiving, which first appeared on the cover of the Nov. 24, 1945, issue of The Saturday Evening Post. LaBrack, a past commander at the Eugene M. Connor Post 193 of Winchendon, Mass., says it wasn't until someone walked in and offered $500 for the work that the post's officers began reconsidering their position: Maybe this was far more than just a beautiful fake. So one day in the early 1970s, the painting was pulled from the wall and driven to the Norman ... More
The small Rolls-Royce design that princes covetted in the 1930s for sale with H&H Classics at Buxton
LONDON.- One of just 22 Rolls-Royce 20/25 chassis to be fitted with the highly desirable Owen Sedanca coachwork, this graceful car attracted commissions from the likes of King George Vs three sons and Prince Ali Khan, the husband of film star Rita Hayworth. Damian Jones of H&H Classics says: This is a rare opportunity to acquire one of the most sought-after pre-WW2 small Rolls-Royces ever made. It is offered for sale with V5 Registration Document, copy RREC build records and lots of invoices for servicing and some repair work. The London coachbuilder J. Gurney Nutting & Co Ltds luring of designer A.F. McNeil away from the shipbuilder Cunard was instrumental in it being appointed Motor Body Builders to His Royal Highness The Prince of Wales during 1931. Possessed of a fabulous sense of proportion and a real eye for detail, McNeil ... More

Summers Place Auctions to sell historically important Winnie-the-Pooh bridge
LONDON.- The iconic bridge, forever associated with A.A. Milne's Winnie the Pooh books and E.H. Shepard's illustrations, was built around 1907 in Ashdown Forest. A replacement was built in 1999, but the original bridge is now fully restored and coming up for auction on Tuesday, 5th October with an estimate of £40,000 - 60,000. It provides a unique opportunity to buy a piece of literary history in the year Pooh Bear is celebrating his 100th Birthday - he was given to Christopher Robin Milne on his first birthday in 1921. Constructed as a sturdy river crossing for horses and carts as well as pedestrians in the forest and originally known as Posingford Bridge, it rose to fame when the famous children's author A.A. Milne got his inspiration when his son Christopher Robin played on it as a child in the 1920's and they invented the game of Poohsticks. This ... More
Artist Janet Zweig asks "What Do We Have in Common?" in new public art installation in Boston
BOSTON, MASS.- In celebration of the Friends of the Public Gardens 50th anniversary in Boston, famed public artist Janet Zweig unveiled a large, participatory public sculpture a hand-crafted, double-sided, wooden cabinet with removable illuminated markers that invite discussion about ownership for an installation called What Do We Have In Common? on historic Boston Common until Oct. 22. The Boston Common is a powerful backdrop for this experience. Prior to the arrival of Europeans, the land that became the Common was occupied by the Massachusett tribe that considered all land to be held in common. As Americas first public park, it has 387 years of history. It has witnessed executions, sermons, protests, and celebrations. It has hosted famous visitors and everyday gatherings of friends and family. The earliest townspeople ... More

Enescu, an underplayed composer, is still a star in Romania
BUCHAREST.- Romania has a long record of defying the catastrophes history has served up, so it certainly would not allow the pandemic to derail the George Enescu International Festival, devoted to its premier musical native son, which ended Sunday. At stake was not only the 25th edition of this countrys largest cultural event but also the renewal of a global artistic exchange that this still-marginalized part of Europe considers essential to its development. Stubbornly underappreciated elsewhere, Enescu (1881-1955), whose Oedipe runs at the Paris Opera through Oct. 14, remains a pervasive presence here, even beyond the musical realm. His face is on Romanias 5-lei note; Bucharests largest orchestra is the George Enescu Philharmonic. A sumptuous Beaux-Arts palace along the fabled Calea Victoriei that served briefly as his home ...

Tommy Kirk, young star of 'Old Yeller,' is dead at 79
NEW YORK, NY.- Tommy Kirk, who was a busy star in the Disney universe as a child and young man, appearing in Old Yeller, The Shaggy Dog, Swiss Family Robinson and other movies in the late 1950s and early 60s, but whose career was derailed when his homosexuality became too widely known and when drugs and alcohol got the better of him, died Tuesday at his home in Las Vegas. He was 79. The Walt Disney Co. announced his death in a statement, which did not give a cause. Kirk got into show business by accident. An older brother was auditioning for a part in Eugene ONeills Ah, Wilderness! at the Pasadena Playhouse in California and took Tommy, then 12, along; the brother didnt get cast, but Tommy did (although not in the part his brother auditioned for). An agent came backstage and introduced himself and gave me his ... More
Review: The costume dramas of New York City Ballet
NEW YORK, NY.- It has been a long 18 months spent languishing in soft clothes, but, finally, fashion is making a comeback on the streets of New York City. It also returned to the stage of New York City Ballet. On Thursday, the company resurrected its Fall Fashion Gala at Lincoln Center with two new ballets dressed up in designer clothing from head or, in once instance, a headpiece veering into lampshade territory to pointe shoe. The question wasnt so much which dance wore its costumes better, but which one wore them brighter. (And sometimes bigger.) Apparently, coming out of a pandemic isnt the time to tone things down. And although I go all out for crazy clothes, the program, which began with Jerome Robbins Glass Pieces, didnt manage to push fashion or ballet in any innovative direction: The vibe was more Twilight ...

Review: In 'Persuasion,' how to lose lovers and influence people
NEW YORK, NY.- Never entrust the fate of your love life to a nosy family friend. In a hokey stage adaptation of Jane Austens Persuasion by the Bedlam theater company, a Victorian woman learns the hard way that some decisions are best made on ones own. That woman, Anne Elliott (Arielle Yoder), is bright and accomplished but, at the ripe old age of 27, shamefully unmarried. Why the life of spinsterhood? When Anne was 19 and engaged to Frederick Wentworth (Rajesh Bose), her godmother and family convinced her that marrying him, a young naval officer with no connections to speak of, would be a mistake. Several years later, she is still being pushed around or, worse, totally disregarded by her narcissistic father, Sir Walter (Randolph Curtis Rand); her obnoxious sisters, Elizabeth (Nandita Shenoy) and Mary (Shaun Bennet Fauntleroy); ...

The Philharmonic is out of its hall this year. It doesn't pack light.
NEW YORK, NY.- The New York Philharmonic had just finished a 90-minute concert, and backstage at Alice Tully Hall, Lawrence Tarlow, its principal librarian, went quickly to work, filing stacks of sheet music of works by Beethoven, Copland, Anna Clyne and George Walker into four trunks, each nearly as tall as Tarlow himself, ready to be loaded on a truck. Stagehands scurried around packing up cellos, basses, timpani, pianos and other equipment. With the Philharmonics home, David Geffen Hall at Lincoln Center, in the midst of a $550 million renovation, the orchestra is plunging into its new season as an orchestra without a hall of its own. With some good-natured grumbling Its like being on a tour for an entire concert season, said Tarlow, who is beginning his 37th season at the Philharmonic the orchestra cleared out of Alice Tully, at Lincoln ...

A year in the life: Who gets a master's degree in the Beatles?
LIVERPOOL.- On Wednesday morning, as a new semester began, students eagerly headed into the University of Liverpools lecture theaters to begin courses in archaeology, languages and international relations. But in lecture room No. 5 of the universitys concrete Rendall Building, a less traditional program was getting underway: a masters degree devoted entirely to the Beatles. How does one start a Beatles M.A.? asked Holly Tessler, the American academic who founded the course, looking out at 11 eager students. One wore a Yoko Ono T-shirt; another had a yellow submarine tattooed on his arm. I thought the only way to do it, really, is with some music, she said. Tessler then played the class the music video for Penny Lane, the Beatles tribute to a real street in Liverpool, just a short drive from the classroom. The yearlong course The ... More

Flashback On a day like today, French painter Pierre Bonnard was born October 03, 1867. Pierre Bonnard (3 October 1867 - 23 January 1947) was a French painter, illustrator, and printmaker, known especially for the stylized decorative qualities of his paintings and his bold use of color. He was a founding member of the Post-Impressionist group of avant-garde painters Les Nabis, and his early work was strongly influenced by the work of Paul Gauguin, and the prints of Hokusai and other Japanese artists.
