Shapiro Michael Edward; Hassrick Peter H.; McCullough David; Burke Doreen Bolger; Seelye John Essays
Frederic Remington: The Masterworks
Saint Louis and New York: The Saint Louis Art Museum - Aberdale Press - Harery N. Abrams Inc. Publishers 1991. 171 Pages Fully Indexed. Light blue boards. No defects noted and the Jacket price $39.95 is not clipped. Includes 180 illustrations including 83 plates in full color. The ultimate coffee table book. A Dash for the Timber The Stampede Last Lull in the Fight are the very titles of Frederic Remington's paintings and sculptures that convey the excitement of the American West. Between 1889 and 1909 the last years of the wild riding cowboy and the trooper of the plains this extraordinarily talented American artist produced images of life in the West that still fire our imagination. But in such works as The Bronco Buster and Episode of a Buffalo Hunt Remington went beyond the descriptive realism that his titles suggest to convey a sense of relentless conflict between human and natural forces. David McCullough sketches a striking portrait of Remington a man of powerful and complex personality. Doreen Burke Curator in the American Wing of The Metropolitan Museum of Art places him in the context of his artistic generation at home and abroad. Peter Hassrick author of the standard monograph on Remington and Director of the Buffalo Bill Historical Center traces the artist's development from a magazine illustrator to a brilliant and versatile painter. Michael Shapiro Chief Curator at The Saint Louis Art Museum shows that Remington's dazzlingly cantilevered bronzes were at the forefront of developments in sculpture in Europe and America. Made expressly for this book the superb color plates that accompany Shapiro's essay open new avenues of interpretation and visual experience for admirers of Remington's work. Enhancing the text are more than 100 reproductions in color and in high quality black and white of Remington's paintings' drawings photographs and sculptures. There are fascinating views of the artist painting and adventuring in the West or working in his studio filled with props and memorabilia. First Edition. Hard Back. Near Fine/Near Fine. 9 X 11 1/2.

Shattuck Roger
Candor and Perversion: Literature Education and the Arts
New York: W W Norton & Co Inc. New with no dust jacket. 1999. First Edition. Softcover. This book contains many essays on literature education and the arts. It is written based on Shattuck's seminal "Nineteen Theses" and form the philosophical basis of this volume. A few of these theses are: Across millions of years we have evolved a fairly stable human nature which contains an elusive element of freedom; Literature ranges from simple songs and saying to elaborate and extended tales of human deeds; Works that have survived for centuries cannot be dismissed out of hand; Nothing will survive unless it has been uttered; We teach what we hope to learn; In a free society the primary role of education is the transmission of a heritage not its primary subversion; There is no literary "canon. " Tastes and curricula keep changing. It is our love of literature that remains constant. From these three major sections unfold: Intellectual Craftsmanship A Critic's Job of Work and America Africa and Elsewhere in which several essays address individual personalities including O'Keefe and Stieglitz Man Ray Leopold Senghor Octavio Paz Arthur Miller and others. 415 pages including credits source of illustrations and an index. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. .
