By considering those periods of creative inspiration we find hints of ways to perceive what a garden is--not only what was unique about the Japanese garden historically but also kernels of knowledge for garden designers now."--introduction ; textured blue-grey and yellow boards with white lettering in color photographic dustjacket ; AS NEW <br/> <br/> Rutland, Vermont ; Tokyo : Charles E.

Many of the early students also brought their slaves to the college with them. Upon Emancipation some of the African Americans of the community--mostly women--stayed on as servants forming what is now called the Hollins Community. Although the servants played an integral part in the college's success students were strongly discouraged from acknowledging them as people. Rules forbidding any 'familiarity' with the servants perpetuated a prejudicial attitude toward the African American community that would persist well into the 1940s. Determined to give voice to the African American community that served as the silent workforce for Hollins College Ethel Morgan Smith herself a graduate of Hollis College succeeded in finding individuals to step forward and tell their stories."--jacket ; VG/VG <br/> <br/> Columbia : University of Missouri Press, 2000. hardcover

The first of these objectives was technical. It was the design of certain components of a control system for an unmanned lunar rover a test vehicle to be used in development and test of these components and a soil sampler. The second objective was educational. The desire was to provide professional engineering candidates with as real a design situation as would be possible within an educational institutions.TECHNICAL OBJECTIVE.

Kauffer, E (Edward) McKnight; Alexey Brodovitch [Expatriate Art] [WWII Poster art] [Graphic Design] [Antifascism]
Libertad de Cultos: Una de Las Cuatro Libertades Por Las Que Luchan Los Aliados; Libres de Miseria: Una de Las Cuatro Libertades Por Las Que Luchan Los Aliado; Libertad de Palabra: Una de Las Cuatro Libertades Por Las Que Luchan Los Aliados Three Posters
Washington DC: El Coordinador de Asuntos Interamericanos 1942. Poster. Good. A suite of three WWII posters 20" x 14". Each poster has been mounted to a thin cardboard. With some creasing and occasional small losses from the edges. The largest loss is from the top right corner of the "palabra" poster measuring 4" x 3". The posters also have a general layer of light glue-staining.<br /> <br /> Three American WWII posters depicting the themes of Freedom of Worship Freedom from Want and Freedom of Speech. These posters were meant to highlight Franklin D. Roosevelt's four freedoms here three and to sway Latin American opinion against Germany Italy and Japan.<br /> <br /> The Spanish text at the foot of each poster reads: "One of the 4 liberties for which the allies fight." Edward McKnight Kauffer 1890-1954 was an American artist and graphic designer who worked mostly in the realm of poster art. He was born in Montana however he moved to England and became an expatriate. He was very influential in Europe however he was only known in the United States by a handful of those well versed in the study of design. Interestingly despite his obscurity in America in 1937 the Museum of Modern Art gave him a prestigious one-man show. At the time of the exhibition copy agents were continuing the tradition of using posters with romantic imagery and only a few designers were able to gain any attention from breaking free of this type of imagery. Still remaining in obscurity Kauffer returned to England only returning to New York City after the war broke out in 1940. He only received honors in the United States posthumously when he finally received an AIGA award.<br /> <br /> Russian born American artist Alexey Brodovitch 1898-1971 was most known for holding the art director's position at Harper's Bazaar fashion magazine during the years of 1934-1958. Like Kauffer Brodovitch played a significant role in introducing the United States to a substantially simplified modern design already popular in Europe. While at Harper's Brodovitch used art created by Man Ray Salvador Dali and A.M. Cassandre. Brodovitch received an AIGA award in 1987.<br /> <br /> Three boldly modern posters created by two artists who helped pioneer the modern poster in the United States with its symbolic imagery and social relevance.

Taubert, Eberhard; Fritz Hippler (Design)
Illustrierter Film-Kurier: Der ewige Jude "THE ETERNAL JEW"
Berlin: Vereinigte Verlagsgesellschaften Franke & Co. KG 1940. First edition. Softcover. Very good condition. Quarto. 8pp. Original photo-illustrated wraps with white lettering on cover. Illustrated promotional supplement of the periodical Illustrierter Film-Kurier in gravure. The 1940 film "Der ewige Jude" is a propaganda documentary about the world Jewry after an idea by Eberhard Taubert.<br /> <br /> As part of Goebbels' anti-Semitic strategy this film followed the 1937 art exhibition "Der ewige Jude" in Munich and the publication of a book in the same year and with the same title both with derogatory captions asserting the "degenerate Jewish race." Goebbels took an active role in the production of the film and insisted on Fritz Hippler as the director for the film. After the invasion of Poland Goebbels instructed Hippler to send camera crews to Poland to collect footage of Polish Jews. The film starts with an "impressive" foray through the Jewish ghettos in Poland depicting the Jews in filthy living conditions making a living through profiteering instead of honest work. The footage was manipulated in a way to show the Jews as originating in Palestine and from there flooding the earth drawing parallels to the way rats spread through new territory stressing the Jew's ability to adapt to various life styles. <br /> <br /> The promotional is illustrated with photomontages depicting Jews from various walks of life Polish street scenes a Rabbi holding up a knife in line with the brutal depiction of a Shechita as the face of Jewry juxtaposed with gleaming pictures of content German people and thankfulness towards a government willing to solve the "Jewish problem." Text in German. Slight wear along edges small closed tear at bottom of last page and some minor chipping along edges. Vereinigte Verlagsgesellschaften Franke & Co. KG unknown
