EDWARD H. SPICER EDITOR WITH ESSAYS BY ELEANOR BAUWENS MARGARITA ARTSCHWAGER KAY MARY ELIZABETH SHUTLER LOUDELL F. SNOW
Ethnic Medicine In The Southwest
University of Arizona Press Tucson: 2016. Softcover. Brand new book. Health is a major concern to all people. In this volume four writers examine the medical arts of Yaqui Anglo Black and Mexican American communities to further understand the relationship between alternative and scientific medicine. Edward H. Spicer's informative Introduction sets the stage for comparing "popular" and "scientific" medicine. "Graduates of medical schools have been taught that their body of knowledge is the one true medical tradition. The world has many medicines and thousands of practitioners who do not believe that "Western" medicine is a universal cure-all. These practitioners may be as certain that what they practice is the one true medical tradition" says Spicer. In the communities studied the belief is that illnesses may be caused by overwork withcraft or sin and treatment may include herbs prayer or massage. Practitioners are successful and respected although they are not licenses in the legal sense. In these alternative medical traditions "Western" medicine may find a key to new growth and effectiveness. Ethnic Medicine in the Southwest is a fascinating look at commonly practiced arts that will interest not only ethnic and health services specialists but all those interested in cultural traditions.

New Forms: The Avant-garde Meets The American Scene 1934-1949 Selections From The University Of Iowa Museum Of Art
University of Iowa Museum of Art Iowa City: 2014. Softcover. Brand new book. In this fascinating exhibition catalogue the authors discuss how 1930s and 1940s American modernism was a diverse blend of styles artists and points of views. Addressing a core of the University of Iowa Museum of Art collection from Jackson Pollock's 1943 Mural and other gifts from collector Peggy Guggenheim to works by Grant Wood the essays provide a broad cultural overview of the terms and motivations of American Modernism with specific focus on Iowa as a hotbed of controversy and innovation a place where the American Scene clashed with the avant-garde in ways that were central to the ongoing national debate over the future of American art. Hardly a provincial regional outpost the University of Iowa was uniquely positioned as a nexus of the modern art world with prominent individuals and events that helped define the era and set aesthetic and ideological standards for the decades that followed. During this remarkable period the University was simultaneously the center of the Regionalist art movement with Grant Wood as its most prominent and exemplary spokesman and an emerging hub of the most progressive forms of modern art. In the early- to mid-1940s new professors and students Lester Longman Horst W. Janson Philip Guston and Mauricio Lasansky set different standards positioning Iowa's art collection as the repository of some of the most significant images of the twentieth century. Seminal paintings by Pollock Guston and Mark Rothko are discussed in detail as are the influences of New Deal art projects surrealism and the print workshop Atelier 17. An exhibition list of more than ninety objects is included. Contributors: Kathleen A. Edwards is chief curator of the University of Iowa Museum of Art and former director of The Print Center in Philadelphia. She has curated over 75 exhibitions including Lil Picard and Counterculture New York and Acting Out: Melodrama and Contemporary Photography. Erika Doss art historian and head of American Studies at Notre Dame University is the author of Benton Pollock and the Politics of Modernism and Memorial Mania: Public Feeling in America among other books chapters articles and essays. University of Iowa School of Art and Art History professor Joni L. Kinsey is the author of the award winning books Thomas Moran's West: Chromolithography High Art and Popular Taste and Plain Pictures: Images of the American Prairie. With Edwards Kinsey is co-curator of the New Forms exhibition. University of Iowa Museum of Art, Iowa City: 2014 paperback
