Superficie regada por provincias en España

 

1. El Mapa representa la superficie regada por provincias en España (en porcentaje sobre el total de tierras de cultivo). Analícelo y conteste a las siguientes cuestiones:

 

a) ¿Cuáles son las provincias que presentan más del 40,0% de sus tierras de cultivo en regadío?

 

León, Huesca, Lérida, Valencia, Alicante, Murcia, Almería, Jaén, Las Palmas y Santa Cruz de Tenerife.

 

b) ¿Qué tipo de cultivos son los que motivan la superficie regada en las provincias 1 y 2?

 

En la provincia n.º 1 (Jaén) el cultivo de regadío predominante es el olivo, un árbol propio de la agricultura de secano, pero con esta técnica su rendimiento resulta muy superior. Además su avance se vio estimulado por la concesión de subvenciones comunitarias.

 

En la provincia n.º 2 (Almería) existe una gran variedad de cultivos: hortofrutícolas (tomates, pimientos, berenjenas…), flores y plantas ornamentales (rosas, crisantemos, claveles…) y frutas de origen tropical (aguacate, chirimoya, mango…). El cultivo bajo plástico se inició en los años sesenta y cobró un gran impulso con la entrada de España en la Unión Europea (entonces C.E.E.) pues esta área pasó a abastecer a todo el continente de producciones tanto tempranas como de fuera de temporada.

 

c) ¿Qué condiciones naturales motivan el predominio de la superficie cultivada de regadío en el sureste peninsular?

 

Las condiciones, en principio, eran muy adversas, pues se trata del área con menos precipitaciones de toda la península. Además la distribución de las lluvias es muy irregular, alternando largos períodos de sequía con bruscas inundaciones que destruían la endeble infraestructura de regadío que se había podido establecer.

 

No obstante, las condiciones climáticas resultan particularmente benévolas para la actividad agrícola, pues los inviernos resultan suaves, con una práctica ausencia de heladas y los veranos, aunque calurosos, no alcanzan las temperaturas extremas de otras comarcas, como el Valle de Guadalquivir. Por otra parte, las escasas precipitaciones se traducen en muy pocos días de nubosidad, o sea en un elevado número de horas de insolación anuales.

 

Los suelos predominantes, por otra parte, son de tipo cambisol, que permite una gran variedad de cultivo, siempre que se garantice el suministro de agua. La forma de relieve más usual en esta parte de la península es la llanura aluvial, que resulta idónea para la práctica agrícola.

 

Tradicionalmente el regadío se reducía a la vega de los escasos ríos que atraviesan este territorio (en particular el Segura). Primero con la edificación de aljibes y, a partir del siglo XIX, con la construcción de embalses, se logró aumentar la superficie irrigada, si bien, los cultivos característicos siguieron siendo los de secano mediterráneo, como cereales, olivo, vid o cítricos.

 

La situación cambió en la década de 1960, cuando pudieron explotarse los acuíferos subterráneos gracias al empleo de modernas bombas de gran capacidad. El rendimiento agrícola aumentó con el empleo de otras tecnologías novedosas:

 

-El uso de enarenados que neutralizan los efectos de la sal del y mantienen la humedad del suelo y el calor más tiempo, lo que acelera su crecimiento.

-Los invernaderos que emplean plástico transparente que intensifica el calor y mantiene la humedad.

-La sustitución del riego a manta por el riego por goteo, reduciendo el despilfarro de agua y logrando una irrigación más eficiente.

 

Estas innovaciones permiten recoger cosechas un mes antes que en campo abierto y con más anticipación que en otras regiones, iniciando recolecciones en diciembre y permitiendo el crecimiento vegetal de las siembras de otoño-invierno hasta marzo, duplicando y, en ocasiones, triplicando el número de cosechas.

As a supplement to the Unsung Joe piece on Franklin Parker, a bit-part actor who had tiny roles as newspaper reporters in 30 or so films in the 30s and 40s, here's a front-page news story from 1938 that he featured in, which represents the peak of his fame.

 

The movie star of the headline is Lyle Talbot, a B-movie actor who you probably haven't heard of (I certainly hadn't). He was in "Plan 9 From Outer Space" (1959), though, so he probably counts as one of Hollywood's immortals.

 

Franklin and Lyle, both Nebraska boys, had met when Lyle was the leading man in the stock theatre company in Lincoln, Nebraska. Their friendship survived the transition to Hollywood and the fact that Lyle got plenty of decent work while Franklin made do with walk-ons.

 

Here's what appeared under that headline in the October 25, 1938, edition of the Centralia Daily Chronicle:

 

"BEVERLY HILLS, Calif -- Trapped by fire on the second floor of his pretentious home here early today, Lyle Talbot, handsome leading man of the films, and his house guest, Franklin Parker, also an actor, leaped to safety early today.

 

They were taken to the Beverly Hills receiving hospital suffering painful burns. Their condition was declared by attendants to be serious."

 

Did 'pretentious' have a different meaning in 1938? If not, that would seem to be a needlessly harsh thing to say about the house of a guy who's lying in hospital with serious burns. The article continued:

 

"Talbot's hair was burned from his scalp and Parker's back was severely burned. The house was nearly demolished by the flames after the pair made their 20-foot leap ... Police theorized the fire may have been started by a burning cigarette, left in the living room. Talbot had entertained last night, authorities said they had learned, but all of the guests except Parker had left the home when the fire broke out."

 

The following day's papers carried another AP wire story about Parker and Talbot, to which the Galveston Daily News gave the headline: "Burns Inflicted Rescuing Friend From Fire May End Talbot's Screen Career". The story read:

 

"The red badge of courage belonged tonight to Screen Actor Lyle Talbot, hero of a fire that destroyed his $50,000 home, but the penalty of his heroism probably is a blighted screen career.

 

Talbot's hands, neck, arms and head were burned so severely he may never appear again before the cameras. He saved the life of his house guest, Franklin D Parker, also an actor, by dragging him from a fiery, smoke-filled bedroom to a second-storey ledge and safety.

 

Witnesses saw Talbot, trapped on the second floor by flames that started at ground level, trying desperately to drag Parker's unconscious form out on a porch roof from a bedroom. Talbot, choking with smoke, his pajamas aflame, finally got Parker to safety and then leaped 20 feet to the ground to assist firemen who had been summoned by neighbors.

 

The condition of both men was critical, said physicians at Cedars of Lebanon Hospital."

 

The story went on to say that Talbot's wife was staying with a friend whose husband was out of town (so perhaps the party at Talbot's house had been a sort of gals-free stag-do sort of affair) and then recounted Talbot's career to date, noting that his last role was in "I Stand Accused" (1938), in which he played a gangster "and met the usual screen death at the hands of the law."

 

Of Franklin, it said only: "Parker played on the New York stage several years ago. He has had several bit roles and a few featured parts since coming to Hollywood."

 

Franklin Parker: even when he makes the front page, it's in a bit part.

 

It seems that the pair's burns were less serious than they appeared to be, because they both continued to work as steadily as they had ever done, and photographs of Lyle Talbot in later years show him with a full head of hair and no visible scars.

 

Franklin died of a heart attack in 1962, at the age of 60, and Lyle lived until he was 92, in 1996, when he died of 'natural causes'.

SERMON PREACHED AT MEMORIAL SERVICE

SUNDAY, OCTOBER 18, 1914

at

VAN WINKLE, MISSISSIPPI

 

By

 

REV. DR. E. T. EDMONDS

 

--o--

 

I want to read the Ninetieth Psalm:

 

"Lord, thou hast been our dwelling place in all generations.

 

Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God.

 

Thou turnest man to destruction; and sayest, Return, ye children of men.

 

For a thousand years in thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night.

 

Thou carriest them away as with a flood; they are as a sleep: in the morning they are like grass which growth up.

 

In the morning it flourisheth, and growth up; in the evening it is cut down, and withereth.

 

For we are consumed by thine anger, and by thy wrath are we troubled.

 

Thou hast set our iniquities before thee, our secret sins in the light of thy countenance.

 

For all our days are passed away in thy wrath: we spend our years as a tale that is told.

 

The days of our years are threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away.

 

Who knoweth the power of thine anger? Even according to thy fear, so is thy wrath.

 

So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.

 

Return, O Lord, how long? And, let it repent thee concerning thy servants.

 

O satisfy us early with thy mercy; that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.

 

Make us glad according to the days wherein thou hast afflicted us, and the years wherein we have seen evil.

 

Let thy work appear unto thy servants, and thy glory unto their children.

 

And, let the beauty of the Lord our God be upon us: and establish thou the work of our hands upon us; yea, the work of our hands establish thou it."

 

UNQUOTE

   

Let us pray.

 

Almighty God, we come into Thy holy presence at this time, feeling very much our sense of need and our deep and great dependence upon Thee; that in Thee we live and move and have our being, and that from Thee cometh life, and breath, and all things.

 

Oh, God, we know not what the day or the hour may bring forth. We are in Thy hands and our destiny is with Thee, and we pray Thee, Father, to make us faithful to the duty and service of life, and so by faith to follow the leading of Thy providence, and we pray that we may be thoroughly guided by Thy spirit, and walk in the ways of peace and righteousness. Our hearts are very sad today, our Father, and very lonely, and we feel that at this hour we miss the dear one, who has left us very much; and we pray, Father, that his spirit may be with us today and worship with us, and we pray that his kind and gentle life may linger with us as a gracious fragrance and a blessed memory; and that his beautiful example may ever before the people of this community; and that others, the men of this community especially, may realize how much his life has meant, that they too may make their lives fruitful in the service of the Lord and of our Christ. And, Father in Heaven, we pray for the dear ones who have given up to Heaven the father and the husband. We pray that thou wouldst give them "beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, and the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness."

 

And we pray, Father, that all of us, in our own way, may be faithful to the duty and service of life as he was; and when the hour shall come, if thou shouldst call us home in the morning, or at the midnight hour, we pray that we may be ready, as he was ready, to pass hence into the everlasting bliss beyond.

 

Oh, God, be with us, bless us, and lead us in Thine own wisdom. Help us to distrust ourselves and trust Thee and love Thee; and may Christ be ever regnant in our very hearts, and through His name and in His name, and by His blood, may we find peace and acceptance before Thee, and may Thy spirit be with us, fill us and possess us, and lead us, Father, to the eternal home, where thee shall be no death and no separation, and where we shall serve Thee world without end, through Jesus Christ. Amen.

   

Two verses of number five.

 

At the close of the service we will sing number two hundred eight, "Just as I am, Without One Plea."

 

I want to call your attention to a phrase in the Book of Isaiah, the sixty-foruth Chapter and sixth Verse: "But we are all as an unclean thin, and all our righteousnesses are a filthy rags, and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away."

 

"We all do fade as the leaf." There are a great many expressions in the Old Testament, especially about the brevity of life, and about the swiftness with which death may summon us to the beyond. We are told that our life is like a weaver’s shuttle; and we are told that death comes upon us like a flood. And we are told so frequently that we are like the grass and the flower of the grass, in the morning flourishing, in the evening cut down and withereth.

 

This phrase in the Book of Isaiah, "We all do fade as a leaf, "is a peculiarly suggestive expression that has often appealed to me, and especially at this season of the year. All the leaves fade.

 

I was brought up, friends, as a child and as a boy, until I was about twenty years old, indeed, in a country where the leaves never fade; where the bark changes on the tree, but the leaves are perpetually green---that is, the native trees. Of course imported trees that come from other continents bring with them their own habits. And so I must confess to the wonderment that came to me in the first autumn that I spent in Kentucky and beheld the fading leaves of the forest trees. All of the leaves fade: the leaves of the tiny bramble, and the leaves of the mighty oak. And so "death, with equal pace, knocks at the palace and the cottage gate."

 

And it is an important reflection, friends, to remember about the fading leaves, that they fade when their work is done. There is a very important office, if I may use that word, in the life and foliage of our trees. The animal creation is always pouring out a great tide of poisoned air from the lungs, taking out of the great animal economy all of the poison that, if left, would really destroy the bodies of all animal life, and the leaves through the hot summer continually absorb all those poisons; but when the summer season has ended, and the touch of frost has come to tell us of the coming winter, then the leaves fade when their work is done. And I think, friends, it is so beautiful for us to think of life that way, as fading when our work is done. And God only knows, beloved, when our work is done.

 

I remember when President Garfield was shot [July 2, 1881] in Washington, D. C., how the nation prayed for his recovery, and the whole world seemed to be in sympathy with the nation that was in grief. And yet he died. And yet, somehow, I think his death was wonderfully blest, for he died in the hope and triumphant expectation of Christian faith, and in the day when Ingersol was preaching his doctrine of materialism and opposing Christian hope. It was a great thing for us when he died to have a Christian die in public life, and in a public way, and in a public place. It helped the world to see the confidence of one’s faith in God.

 

I don’t know, friends, about the apostle Paul, --what I covet most about him. I think, you know, that he exemplified more of the Christian faith than any other man whose life is found upon the pages of the New Testament. You know he was in prison for a long time, and then he was let out of prison, and then when fierce persecution came, he was arrested and put in prison, [and] condemned to die. I love to think of Paul’s letters so much. I was writing to my brother the other day in Washington, D. C. I have not seen him for many years. But after I had written the letter on the typewriter, I thought of some little message, a little personal message. And I wrote that with a pen. I said to myself, "Now, he will think this is the dearest part of this letter, this little foot note." And that is true. In the very foot notes of Paul’s letters, friends, I find such beautiful things. In that love letter to Phillipians [Philippians] we find a beautiful story. Onesiphorus, who brought to Paul a gift from the Phillipians [Philippians], had been sick and had gotten well. Paul was sending him back. He wrote that beautiful letter to the Phillipians [Philippians], ---Paul’s love letter. At the bottom of the letter, I find this postscript: "All the saints salute you, chiefly they of Caesar’s household." The very soldiers that guarded Paul had become his own brethren. And when Paul wrote that letter he told them how much, how much he loved them. And so Paul added at the end of the letter, "All the saints salute you, chiefly those of Caesar’s household." And then when he was going to die, his life was fulfilled as God’s providence would seem to have it fulfilled. He wrote that final letter to Timothy---Timothy, that wonderful preacher, that young man Paul loved as he loved no other man.

 

You can tell a whole lot by a man’s friends, the kind of people who are his friends. I like to think of Paul’s friends. Paul’s friends are interesting. Timothy was one of them. He wrote this final message to Timothy. "I am now ready to be offered, and the time of my departure is at hand." He wrote, "I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith. Henceforth, there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness which God, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day, and not to me only, but to all of them also that love his appearing."

 

I was in the city of Rome in 1896 and went to the prison in which Paul very likely wrote this beautiful letter. Leaving the bright sunlight of Italy, on an August day, I went into a dungeon and there was just enough light to dimly light it up. Then the tonsured monk lighted a little taper, and we went down into a lower dungeon that has been there for centuries and centuries. And I thought of Paul in that dark dungeon writing this beautiful letter: "I am now ready to be offered and the time of my departure is at hand. I have fought a good fight, I have finished the course, I have kept the faith." And it seems to me, friends, that the very light of Heaven must have come in a flood into that dark dungeon in which he was writing. And so he added: "Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness which God, the righteous judge, has given to me, and not to me only, but unto all of them also that love his appearance." It is a great thing to finish life with our work done, and well done.

 

I thought I was going to die some years ago, friends, and there were perhaps six doctors, in the next room talking about my condition, and the doctors said I was in a very dangerous condition. I did not think so, but the doctors said so. But do you know the things that worried me as I thought of dying,--it was the unfinished tasks, the incompleted [uncompleted] things that I had started and had not finished. I was building a great church, a stone church. I had set my heart upon its completion. And Oh, I did pray to the Lord that I might finish that at least, and I did. And, you know, I think when we come to die, we will think very much of the things that are unfinished, the unfinished tasks of life; and Oh, I try now, friends, as I get older to hurry to completion everything I undertake, and leave it completed and finished. "I have fought a good fight, I have kept the faith, [and] I have finished the course." Oh, for a completed life, and Oh, for a satisfied sense of completed service when the Master calls us home.

 

And the leaf, friends, is brightest when it fades. You know a great many people think that spring time is the joy of life, that when these branches that have been singing their miserere [misery?] through the weary months of winter, put on their new foliage and every hillside has its carpeting of green, and the first flowers come and are sending out upon the passing breeze their fragrance, and giving color against the green patches of grass, that the spring time seems to be the welcome time of the year. But, you know, I love the fall of the year, I love the autumn, I love the season of the fading leaves. Walking from the station over here this afternoon, I felt I would have fifty times preferred to walk rather than to ride; to feel the joy of coming through the forest on an autumn day. There is a stillness, friends, about the woods, there is a stillness about the air, there is a carrying quality about the atmosphere in the fall of the year that I miss in every other season. And then, friends, I used to love, when I was in Arkansas, to go up into the Ozarks, in the fall of the year. As the train traveled up from the river level, up the mountain side, up and up, arising to an ascent of about sixteen hundred feet above the sea level, and then we could climb to a two thousand foot level. It was something worth while to look down upon the mountain when the first frost had tinted the leaves, and to behold that marvelous sunset of color, all the yellow and gold, and the green and all the mingling colors. That great mountain side seemed to me to be more beautiful than the sunset upon the Mediterranean Sea. That is the time, friends, when the appealing voice in the fading leaf somehow speaks to me a great message from the Father. The leaf is brightest when it fades. I think that is the way of life, friends; it ought to be.

 

Oh, it is sweet to take a little baby with its eyes of blue, its unfathomed mysteries as you look into the light of its eyes. There must have been, for Jesus took a little child and set him in the midst and said unless you become converted and become like this little child you cannot enter the Kingdom of Heaven. The purest thing under the canopy of Heaven, Jesus said, is a little child, that precious thing. But I love to think of life, friends, not in its childhood or youth, but as it is fading out; and as we are leaving behind the life of flesh and blood, the soul life, the divine life and the God life are speaking out their mysterious, wonderful something through the eye and through the hand, speaking to us of that life that is beyond, when we shall be transformed into the likeness, the image of Jesus Christ. It is brightest when it fades. And so, friends, as the fires of life dies, as the passions fade out, as the great physical powers are sinking, there seems to come up out of the soul, out of the inmost life, there seems to come up the likeness of the very Christ, and so out of the "muddy vesture of decay" we see the developement [development] of that spiritual life that is to find its home in glory. And then friends, the leaf fades in hope, in hope, in hope.

 

Next spring these dry, withered leaves, rattling through winter’s weary months, with every passing breeze, upon these oak branches---you will not have to cut them off; the swelling bud will push them off. They will fall to the ground. And so this life friends, fades in hope. And so the Christian fades in hope; and thus he passes away with the assurance and expectation of the joy that is beyond, "where never fading spring abounds and never withering flowers."

 

I never can forget, friends, an experience I had in traveling in Switzerland in the month of August, a few years ago, near the place where the river Rhone rises under a great glacier and flows into the great southern reaches of France. And I remember the night I was there. It was freezing a little all night. And early in the morning we got up and went to the Rhone glacier, and walked over a great bed of ice that had been there for centuries and centuries and centuries; and through the great crevasses we could hear the flowing stream and trickling drops, the beginning of the great Rhone river [River]. And then as the sun came up, what a glory! There was a great encircling range of mountains capped with eternal snow, and as the sun came up the peaks were crimsoned with the new light of day. After we had had breakfast, we walked over to the station, or traveled in a carriage, then too the train. Under the mountains there is a very long tunnel between eight and nine miles long. We went into the darkness of that tunnel. The difference between the elevation of the mountain and the valley below is so great that the descent would be too great to go straight down, so the tunnel winds around like a corkscrew and lets you down in that sort of way. And for twenty minutes we were in that darkness. It was almost as much as I could endure to live through those twenty minutes. I think it was the longest twenty minutes of my life. And yet there came all in a moment, as we left the tunnel at the other end, into a valley of Italy, there came the bright glory and glad sunshine, the flowers, the songs of the birds, and the leaping streams down the mountain sides. I said it is wonderful, it is wonderful. This, it seems to me, is what death means. We leave behind the sin and winter and the bitterness, and the momentary darkness is perhaps the experience of death, and then we are ushered into the glad light, into the eternal sunshine, into the never-fading glory of that world beyond that is so beautiful. We know not what we shall be, we do not; but we know that when he shall appear, "we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is."

 

Beloved friends, I do not want to start anew the fountain of tears. I would not make the aching heart sore again. Rather would I heal it.[?] Yet, I must confess to you that an awful sense of loneliness and loss came over me as I came into this little school house [This appears to be a metaphor for the church the Reverend was speaking in. However, read on.] this afternoon; an awful sense of depression. I felt as if one had left us whose face was always here; whose glad hand was always ready with its manly greeting and whose voice was always vibrant with truth and righteousness,--a manly Christian. And what a good man dear Brother Morson was! I think of him, friends, so much, as a man, as a good man. I was talking a moment ago at the Edwards House to a young man, and we were talking about a merchant, and I said, "He has a good stand for business," but he said, "That isn’t much of a stand," he said, "It is the man that is getting the business, it isn’t the stand at all." Do you know, friends, I have come to look at life that way very much indeed. Back of every contract I make I want to see the man. Back of every piece of goods I buy I want to see the man. Back of every promise and pledge I want to see the man. When I feel there is a man behind every transaction, I am not so particular about how the contract reads, or how the goods look; if I have the pledged word of the man, it means so much. Friends, the greatest thing we are doing in America is making men, making men, and our republic will never die and go into decay as long as we are rearing God-fearing men an women and have in every community such a citizen as this good man was, with the life that was always breathing the very spirit of Christ. What a valuable citizen he was! Why, they tell me in Jackson, when they had one of the meetings for this projected creamery [According to my Dad, A. A. Morson was in the Creamery business], after everybody had spoken, this modest man sat in the corner and said nothing. Somebody called on him to speak and they said he told them more about it than they had ever known about this enterprise. His few words of wisdom revealed a lifetime of experience tersely and clearly put and he sat down as the accepted authority upon the question.

 

I always felt, friends, that I wanted to know Brother Morson better, I knew him so slightly. You know, there are some people you meet and you do not want to meet them intimately again. And there are some people you meet, and the more you meet them the more you feel their faults and failings. And yet there are some other people the more you meet them the more you like them, and he was the kind of a man to me; the more I knew him the more I loved him, and the more I wanted to know him. He was one of those wonderful men, so simple, so modest, so true, and yet so wonderfully wise, I felt as if I wanted to know him and take him to my heart to love. I have never known a man for such a brief time, who made a deeper impression on my heart than he made. And I am sure you will miss him. You will miss him so much. But I am persuaded that his example and his life will remain in this community of years as a blessed fragrance of the Christ.

 

And then what a father he was! I have thought so much of this family of children that he and his dear wife [Bessie Eppie Dameron, 1860 - 1835] have brought up. These thirteen children [See list below]. And I have thought of these children, how they have developed, how they have gone out into life to find their place and reflected honor and credit upon their mother and father. And wherever they have gone they have carried his good name unsullied. I think it is a great thing.

You remember the old story in the Roman history we used to learn when we were children. The story of the Graechi,--the mother who lived in a great mansion, beautiful home,--her husband was an illustrious senator. Somebody said to her, when she had shown them everything, "Now, madam, where are your jewels?" She brought her two boys,[;] she said "These are my jewels." I tell you, fathers and mothers, it does not matter how many acres you own, how much bank stock you have, there is not anything that will give you credit quite as much as your noble sons and your splendid daughters,--your children, your children, who grow up to be noble men and women, to do Christ’s work, serve God, and their country. I am sure these children loved this dear father. I am sure they will love his memory. And I am sure our very heart goes out in sympathy and affection and love to this home that has lost the father, the husband and brother, and to this community that has laid away this noble citizen.

 

I am interested in what you are doing here. I pray that these men, noble men they are, may take up this work and carry it forward, and Van Winkle may feel the influence of the holy work you are doing in this little school house [this confirms it really was a school house and not a church]. And when your daughters and sons have gone forth into the world, may they look back to this place and say, "Right here in this little school house in Van Winkle, it is here I found God and came into the possession of the new life, and there was formed the might resolutions that made my character." I pray that God may bless you all in what you are doing.

 

Now, we are going to sing this beautiful hymn, "Just As I Am, Without One Plea;" we are going to sing just two verses, the first and last verses.

 

And I want to say this; if there are those here today who are not Christians, who have never given themselves to the Lord Jesus, while we sing these two verse if you feel you want to declare your faith in Christ, you may come forward and give me your hand and the Lord your heart.

 

And now may the God of Peach, that brought again the Lord Jesus from the dead, that great Shepherd of the Sheep, through the blood of the everlasting Covenant, make you perfect in all things to do His will, working in you that which is well pleasing to His will, through Jesus Christ, the Lord Amen.

“THE VISIBLE VAGINA”

 

FRANCIS M. NAUMANN FINE ART

and DAVID NOLAN GALLERY

  

January 28 – March 20, 2010

Wednesday, January 27, 2010, 6-8 pm at Francis M. Naumann Fine Art

Thursday, January 28, 2010, 6-8 pm at David Nolan Gallery

 

THE VISIBLE VAGINA is an exhibition jointly organized by Francis M. Naumann and David Nolan. It is scheduled to open at Francis M. Naumann Fine Art (24 West 57th Street) and at David Nolan Gallery (527 West 29th Street) on January 28, 2010. Both shows will run concurrently, ending on March 20, 2010.

  

As the title of the exhibition suggests, the show is designed to make visible a portion of the female anatomy that is generally considered taboo―too private and intimate for public display. If shown at all, this part of a woman’s body is usually presented in an abject fashion, generally within the context of pornography, intended, in almost all cases, for the exclusive pleasure of men. The goal of this exhibition is to remove these prurient connotations, implicit even in works of art, ever since the pudendum was prudishly covered by a fig leaf. This gesture of false modesty, it should be noted, was devised and enforced entirely by men (not only in the case of classical sculpture, but also in the Bible, in which, immediately after their disobedience in the Garden of Eden, Adam and Eve cover their genitalia with fig leaves). Indeed, until recently, virtually all depictions of the frontal nude female figure were made by men, but as this exhibition will demonstrate, that has changed dramatically in recent years.

  

The catalogue for THE VISIBLE VAGINA will trace this motif in art history from prehistoric to modern times. It includes an introduction by the exhibition organizers, as well as a highly informative and provocative essay by Anna C. Chave, Professor of Contemporary Art and Theory at the Graduate Center of the City University of New York. Inspiration for both the show and its catalogue came from Eve Ensler’s The Vagina Monologues, a stage play that premiered off-Broadway in 1996, and was followed by various productions throughout the world (it appeared as a book in 1998). Ensler gave voice to countless women worldwide, honoring the complexity and mystery of their sexuality, basically encouraging them to consider their vaginas as powerful and expressive components of their physical selves, something not to be ashamed of, but to be proudly protected as an assertive and positive manifestation of their being. The idea for this show came from realizing that there was no better group to give vision to this goal than artists, many of whom had already incorporated imagery of the vagina in their works. Because of Ensler’s pioneering work in this field, the catalogue is dedicated to her, and proceeds from its sale shall be donated to V-Day, the organization she founded to end violence against women and girls throughout the world.

 

The following is a list of the artists whose work will be included in the exhibition (as well as a number whose work is only reproduced in the catalogue): Magdalena Abakanowicz, Ghada Amer, Beth B, Judie Bamber, Tracey Baran, Nancy Becker, Hans Bellmer, Mike Bidlo, Louise Bourgeois, Robert Brinker, Judy Chicago, Carol Cole, Maureen Connor, Gustave Courbet, Tee Corinne, John Currin, Sarah Davis, James Dee, Jay Defeo, Jim Dine, Leo Dohman, Marcel Duchamp, Carroll Dunham, Tracy Emin, India Evans, John Evans, Valie Export, Robert Forman, Neil Gall, Kathleen Gilje, Guerrilla Girls, Nancy Grossman, Barbara Hammer, Jane Hammond, Mona Hatoum, Stanley William Hayter, Sandra Vásquez de la Horra, David Humphrey, Paul Joostens, Pamela Joseph, Mel Kendrick, Elisabeth Kley, Jeff Koons, Mark Kostabi, Shigeko Kubota, Zoe Leonard, Sherrie Levine, Lee Lozano, Henri Maccheroni, Chema Madoz, Réné Magritte, Gerard Malanga, Man Ray, Robert Mapplethorpe, Marcel Mariën, André Masson, Sophie Matisse, Ana Mendieta, Allyson Mitchell, Cathy de Monchaux, Vik Muniz, Wangechi Mutu, Gladys Nilsson, Yoko Ono, Pablo Picasso, Chloe Piene, Richard Prince, Daniel Ranalli, Oona Ratcliffe, Niki de Saint-Phalle, Katia Santibanez, Peter Saul, Naomi Savage, Egon Schiele, Carolee Schneemann, Mira Schor, Michelle Segre, Tom Shannon, Cindy Sherman, James Siena, Laurie Simmons, Kiki Smith, Julie Speed, Nancy Spero, Betty Tompkins, Kiyoshi Tsuchiya, John Tweddle, Tabitha Vevers, Douglas Vogel, Robert Watts, Hannah Wilke, Terry Winters, Beatrice Wood.

Documenta From Wikipedia,

 

The Fridericianum during documenta (13)

documenta is an exhibition of contemporary art which takes place every five years in Kassel, Germany. It was founded by artist, teacher and curator Arnold Bode in 1955 as part of the Bundesgartenschau (Federal Horticultural Show) which took place in Kassel at that time.[1] It was an attempt to bring Germany up to speed with modern art, both banishing and repressing the cultural darkness of Nazism.[2] This first documenta featured many artists who are generally considered to have had a significant influence on modern art (such as Picasso and Kandinsky). The more recent documentas feature art from all continents; nonetheless most of it is site-specific.

 

Every documenta is limited to 100 days of exhibition, which is why it is often referred to as the "museum of 100 days".[3] Documenta is not a selling exhibition. It rarely coincides with the three other major art world events: the Venice Biennale, Art Basel and Skulptur Projekte Münster, but in 2017, all four were open simultaneously.

  

Etymology of documenta

The name of the exhibition is an invented word. The term is supposed to demonstrate the intention of every exhibition (in particular of the first documenta in 1955) to be a documentation of modern art which was not available for the German public during the Nazi era. Rumour spread from those close to Arnold Bode that it was relevant for the coinage of the term that the Latin word documentum could be separated into docere (Latin for teach) and mens (Latin for intellect) and therefore thought it to be a good word to describe the intention and the demand of the documenta.[4]

 

Each edition of documenta has commissioned its own visual identity, most of which have conformed to the typographic style of solely using lowercase letters, which originated at the Bauhaus.[5]

 

History

 

Stadtverwaldung by Joseph Beuys, oaktree in front of the museum Fridericianum, documenta 7

Art professor and designer Arnold Bode from Kassel was the initiator of the first documenta. Originally planned as a secondary event to accompany the Bundesgartenschau, this attracted more than 130,000 visitors in 1955. The exhibition centred less on "contemporary art“, that is art made after 1945: instead, Bode wanted to show the public works which had been known as "Entartete Kunst" in Germany during the Nazi era: Fauvism, Expressionism, Cubism, Blauer Reiter, Futurism and Pittura Metafisica. Therefore, abstract art, in particular the abstract paintings of the 1920s and 1930s, was the focus of interest in this exhibition.

 

Over time, the focus shifted to contemporary art. At first, the show was limited to works from Europe, but soon covered works by artists from the Americas, Africa and Asia. 4. documenta, the first ever to turn a profit, featured a selection of Pop Art, Minimal Art, and Kinetic Art.[6] Adopting the theme of Questioning Reality – Pictorial Worlds Today, the 1972 documenta radically redefined what could be considered art by featuring minimal and conceptual art, marking a turning point in the public acceptance of those styles.[7] Also, it devoted a large section to the work of Adolf Wolfli, the great Swiss outsider, then unknown. Joseph Beuys performed repeatedly under the auspices of his utopian Organization for Direct Democracy.[8] Additionally, the 1987 documenta show signaled another important shift with the elevation of design to the realm of art – showing an openness to postmodern design.[9] Certain key political dates for wide-reaching social and cultural upheavals, such as 1945, 1968 or 1976/77, became chronological markers of documenta X (1997), along which art's political, social, cultural and aesthetic exploratory functions were traced.[10] Documenta11 was organized around themes like migration, urbanization and the post-colonial experience,[11] with documentary photography, film and video as well as works from far-flung locales holding the spotlight.[7] In 2012, documenta (13) was described as "[a]rdently feminist, global and multimedia in approach and including works by dead artists and selected bits of ancient art".[12]

 

Criticism

documenta typically gives its artists at least two years to conceive and produce their projects, so the works are often elaborate and intellectually complex.[13] However, the participants are often not publicised before the very opening of the exhibition. At documenta (13), the official list of artists was not released until the day the show opened.[14] Even though curators have often claimed to have gone outside the art market in their selection, participants have always included established artists. In the documenta (13), for example, art critic Jerry Saltz identified more than a third of the artists represented by the renowned Marian Goodman Gallery in the show.[14]

 

Directors

The first four documentas, organized by Arnold Bode, established the exhibition's international credentials. Since the fifth documenta (1972), a new artistic director has been named for each documenta exhibition by a committee of experts. Documenta 8 was put together in two years instead of the usual five. The original directors, Edy de Wilde and Harald Szeemann, were unable to get along and stepped down. They were replaced by Manfred Schneckenburger, Edward F. Fry, Wulf Herzogenrath, Armin Zweite, and Vittorio Fagone.[15] Coosje van Bruggen helped select artists for documenta 7, the 1982 edition. documenta IX's team of curators consisted of Jan Hoet, Piero Luigi Tazzi, Denys Zacharopoulos, and Bart de Baere.[16] For documenta X Catherine David was chosen as the first woman and the first non-German speaker to hold the post. It is also the first and unique time that its website Documenta x was conceived by a curator (swiss curator Simon Lamunière) as a part of the exhibition. The first non-European director was Okwui Enwezor for Documenta11.[17]

2012's edition was organized around a central node, the trans-Atlantic melding of two distinct individuals who first encountered each other in the "money-soaked deserts of the United Arab Emirates". As an organizing principle it is simultaneously a commentary on the romantic potentials of globalization and also a critique of how digital platforms can complicate or interrogate the nature of such relationships. Curatorial agents refer to the concept as possessing a "fricative potential for productive awkwardness," wherein a twosome is formed for the purposes of future exploration.[23]

 

Venues

documenta is held in different venues in Kassel. Since 1955, the fixed venue has been the Fridericianum. The documenta-Halle was built in 1992 for documenta IX and now houses some of the exhibitions. Other venues used for documenta have included the Karlsaue park, Schloss Wilhelmshöhe, the Neue Galerie, the Ottoneum, and the Kulturzentrum Schlachthof. Though Okwui Enezor notably tried to subvert the euro-centric approach documenta had taken, he instigated a series of five platforms before the Documenta11 in Vienna, Berlin, New Delhi, St Lucia, and Lagos, in an attempt to take documenta into a new post-colonial, borderless space, from which experimental cultures could emerge. documenta 12 occupied five locations, including the Fridericianum, the Wilhelmshöhe castle park and the specially constructed "Aue-Pavillon", or meadow pavilion, designed by French firm Lacaton et Vassal.[24] At documenta (13) (2012), about a fifth of the works were unveiled in places like Kabul, Afghanistan, and Banff, Canada.[13]

 

There are also a number of works that are usually presented outside, most notably in Friedrichsplatz, in front of the Fridericianum, and the Karlsaue park. To handle the number of artworks at documenta IX, five connected temporary "trailers" in glass and corrugated metal were built in the Karlsaue.[25] For documenta (13), French architects Anne Lacaton and Jean-Philippe Vassal constructed the temporary "Aue-Pavillon" in the park.

  

Rahmenbau (1977) by Haus Rucker und Co.

A few of the works exhibited at various documentas remained as purchases in Kassel museums. They include 7000 Eichen by Joseph Beuys; Rahmenbau (1977) by Haus-Rucker-Co; Laserscape Kassel (1977) by Horst H. Baumann; Traumschiff Tante Olga (1977) by Anatol Herzfeld; Vertikaler Erdkilometer by Walter De Maria; Spitzhacke (1982) by Claes Oldenburg; Man walking to the sky (1992) by Jonathan Borofsky; and Fremde by Thomas Schütte (one part of the sculptures are installed on Rotes Palais at Friedrichsplatz, the other on the roof of the Concert Hall in Lübeck).

 

documenta archive

The extensive volume of material that is regularly generated on the occasion of this exhibition prompted Arnold Bode to create an archive in 1961. The heart of the archive’s collection comes from the files and materials of the documenta organization. A continually expanding video and image archive is also part of the collection as are the independently organized bequests of Arnold Bode and artist Harry Kramer.

 

Management

Visitors

In 1992, on the occasion of documenta IX, for the first time in the history of the documenta, more than half a million people traveled to Kassel.[26] The 2002 edition of documenta attracted 650,000 visitors, more than triple Kassel's population.[27] In 2007, documenta 12 drew 754,000 paying visitors, with more than one-third of the visitors coming from abroad and guests from neighboring Netherlands, France, Belgium and Austria among the most numerous.[28] In 2012, documenta (13) had 904,992 visitors.[21]

lumbung

Short concept by ruangrupa for documenta 15

"We want to create a globally oriented, cooperative, interdisciplinary art and culture platform that will remain effective beyond the 100 days of documenta fifteen. Our curatorial approach aims at a different kind of collaborative model of resource use—economically, but also in terms of ideas, knowledge, programs, and innovation."

  

ruangrupa’s central curatorial approach for documenta fifteen is based on the principles of collectivity, resource building, and equal sharing. They aim to appeal not just to an art audience but to a variety of communities, and to promote local commitment and participation. Their approach is based on an international network of local, community-based organizations from the art and other cultural contexts and can be outlined by the Indonesian term lumbung. lumbung, directly translatable as “rice barn,” is a collective pot or accumulation system used in rural areas of Indonesia, where crops produced by a community are stored as a future shared common resource and distributed according to jointly determind criteria. Using lumbung as a model, documenta fifteen is a collective resource pot, operating under the logics of the commons. It is an agglomeration of ideas, stories, (wo)manpower, time, and other shareable resources. At the center of lumbung is the imagination and the building of these collective, shared resources into new models of sustainable ideas and cultural practices. This will be fostered by residencies, assemblies, public activities, and the development of tools.

 

Interdisciplinarity is key in this process. It is where art meets activism, management, and networking to gather support, understand environments, and identify local resources. These elements then create actions and spaces, intertwine social relations and transactions; they slowly grow and organically find a public form. This is a strategy “to live in and with society.” It imagines the relations an art institution has with its community by being an active constituent of it. Strategies are then developed based on proximity and shared desires.

 

The main principles of the process are:

• Providing space to gather and explore ideas

• Collective decision making

• Non-centralization

• Playing between formalities and informalities

• Practicing assembly and meeting points

• Architectural awareness

• Being spatially active to promote conversation

• A melting pot for and from everyone’s thoughts, energies, and ideas

Jack Kerouac Alley Mural

by Sue Walsh

 

Perhaps as you stroll along Columbus Avenue in North Beach, you pay little attention to the sixty-foot-long Jack Kerouac Alley, aptly situated between the landmark City Lights Bookstore and legendary Vesuvio Café. The passageway that served as a transportation shortcut from Chinatown to North Beach was once a refuge for back-alley drinkers and rotting garbage. Today, Jack Kerouac Alley is transformed into an inviting pedestrian-only thoroughfare complete with decorative lampposts and poetry from eastern and western cultures inscribed on the brick walkway connecting the two neighborhoods. The renovated alley was opened to the public on March 31, 2007, under the funding and direction of the Chinatown Alleyway Improvement Project.

 

Pre and post alley renovation, since October 1999 the mural Vida y sueños de la cañada Perla (Life and Dreams of the Perla River Valley) has adorned the wall of the City Lights Bookstore that faces Jack Kerouac Alley. This mural is a reproduction of Mexico City artist Sergio Valdéz Rubalcaba’s original work that was painted in the jungle village of Taniperla, home to the Tzeltal Mayan indigenous people in Chiapas, Mexico.

 

Depicted in the painting are revolutionary leaders Emiliano Zapata and Ricardo Flores Magon and ski-masked rebels observing routine daily life activities in the community. The mural represents local autonomy of this indigenous group and was painted on the wall of the new municipal headquarters for the Zapatista National Liberation Army (EZLN) in the village of Taniperla. EZLN fought for indigenous land rights, education, and social welfare in the late 1990s.

 

At dawn on April 11, 1998, one thousand Mexican Army troops stormed the village of Taniperla and occupied the territory. Cornfields, coffee plantations, and houses were burned; local leaders were arrested. Artist Sergio Valdéz Rubalcaba was among those arrested and beaten. The mural was destroyed by the Mexican Army. Charged with rebellion, Rubalcaba was sentenced to nine years in prison for designing the mural. Due to international protests and pressure from human rights groups, he was released from prison after a year and a half and did not complete his full sentence.

 

In solidarity with the indigenous people’s fight for justice and dignity, global human rights workers who witnessed the demolition of the original mural and invasion of Taniperla canvassed locations throughout the world to paint reproductions of Vida y sueños de la cañada Perla. In addition to the location on the outside wall of City Lights Bookstore, other reproductions may be found in Oakland; Barcelona, Madrid, and Bilbao, Spain; Florence, Italy; and Mexico City.

ROBERT CRUMB

 

Mr. Natural's Creator Visits the World of Art

By RANDY KENNEDY

 

"The R. Crumb Handbook," by R. Crumb and Peter Poplaski (MQ Publications, Ltd.)

Still truckin': "The R. Crumb Handbook," a memoir, was published this month.

 

Joe Tabacca for The New York Times

R. Crumb, whose memoir was written with Peter Poplaski, listening to a question at the New York Public Library.

 

The cartoonist R. Crumb has never been sure what to make of praise for his work from the noncomics art world. He once drew a pitiful buck-toothed portrait of himself wearing a beret and a bewildered look, exclaiming in a half-literate word bubble: "Broigul I ain't ... Let's face it." And his view of most fine art is equally dismissive: he calls it a land of "cake eaters," rolling his eyes behind his trademark Coke-bottle glasses.

 

But in a rare public appearance on Thursday night at the New York Public Library, Mr. Crumb took the stage with one of the more famous cake eaters in the art world, the critic Robert Hughes, who has compared Mr. Crumb not only to Bruegel but also to Goya, one of Mr. Hughes's favorite artists and the subject of his latest book. In 1994 Mr. Hughes appeared as a talking head, a kind of lone voice from the establishment art world, in Terry Zwigoff's hit documentary "Crumb," but until Thursday night, the two men had never met. Introduced as "two very naughty boys" before a sold-out crowd, they made an odd couple.

 

Mr. Hughes, 66, barrel-chested and blustery, commanded the stage and in a mostly dogged manner tried to plumb the depths of the funny, disturbing cartoons that have honestly and bleakly chronicled Mr. Crumb's own life. Mr. Crumb, 61, still as thin and gangly as his cartoons portray him, often slumped in his chair, politely made fun of himself, Mr. Hughes and the whole pretense of an art discussion, and occasionally fumbled with his tie, making his clip microphone emit a loud thump that caused him to jump comically.

 

But as different as the men were, they discovered that they had a lot of common ground in their disdain for much of contemporary art. In fact, despite his subversive, counterculture reputation, Mr. Crumb came off as even more conservative in his opinions about art than Mr. Hughes, who generally likes his art "cake" well aged.

 

"I thought that nobody hated Warhol and what he stood for more than me," Mr. Hughes said at one point, "but my, oh my, you do."

 

The discussion was Mr. Crumb's only public speaking appearance in the United States to promote his new book, "The R. Crumb Handbook," a memoir in collaboration with his friend, Peter Poplaski, published this month. While Mr. Crumb, who now lives in southern France, has often shunned popular culture (he famously turned down offers to be the host of "Saturday Night Live" and to design an album cover for the Rolling Stones, saying he hated that band), he has ventured much further into public in recent years, partly because of the urging of his wife, the cartoonist Aline Kominsky-Crumb.

 

Mr. Crumb, who has said he loathes the fashion world, recently helped the designer Stella McCartney make a limited-edition T-shirt with his comics on the front that sells for more than $150. He has appeared at lavish parties for the T-shirt in London and New York. He now has a Web site, www.crumbproducts.com, where fans can buy a Mr. Natural table lamp for $825. And to promote the new book, its publisher, MQ Publications of London, is conducting an R. Crumb look-alike contest in the United States. (The winner gets a "date" with Ms. Kominsky-Crumb.)

 

During the discussion with Mr. Hughes - which did not stint on classic Crumb references to fellatio, beheaded nuns, near-severed penises and throwing up while on LSD - Mr. Crumb often seemed to be of two minds about his fame and increasing acceptance in the gallery-art world, which ignored him for so long. He said that as a disaffected young man, if he had not had the outlet of drawing, he probably would have ended up sketching his lurid, big-bottomed female characters "on some prison wall or in a lunatic asylum someplace, or I'd be dead."

 

"Now I'm better," he said, adding that "getting famous helped." But then he immediately countered that it could be "hell on earth," and in one exchange with the audience - which included his fellow cartoonists Art Spiegelman and Bill Griffith - he mocked his contradictory needs.

 

"I want everyone to love me," he said, half-mockingly, after explaining that he was once shocked to learn that the racial stereotypes and violence toward women he portrayed in his work were hurtful to many people. "Please love me," Mr. Crumb added.

 

A woman in the audience then shouted, "We love you!," and Mr. Crumb held up his hands, cringing, to stop the applause.

 

"O.K., you love me," he responded, laughing. "You're killing me, you love me so much. You're choking me. Now back off."

 

After the discussion, Mr. Crumb quickly ducked out of the library, avoiding a throng of fans, and later joined Mr. Hughes for dinner, where they took a while to warm up to each other, but by the end were in a spirited discussion about Hitler's architect, Albert Speer, whom Mr. Hughes interviewed in the late 1970's.

 

Mr. Hughes told about an exchange in which Speer said that architecture was certainly one way to unite a people, but that if the Nazis had had television, there would have been no stopping them.

 

Mr. Crumb, finishing his plate of baked chicken, beamed. "Oh, that's great," he said. "It's true."

 

Art in Review

 

By ROBERTA SMITH

Published: December 17, 1993

 

R. Crumb Alexander Gallery 980 Madison Avenue (near 76th Street) Through Jan. 15 (closed Dec. 24 to Jan. 4)

 

This exhibition confirms the influential, obsessive, self-flagellating and highly productive talent of R. Crumb, one of the grandfathers of underground cartooning. It is not definitive, but with nearly 200 works -- ranging from the early 1960's, when Mr. Crumb was a talented teen-age malcontent in Cleveland, to the present -- it will give most people interested in his work more than enough to look at.

 

The show includes finished and published strips, erotica, and pages and pages from Mr. Crumb's many notebooks and sketch pads. It also has less familiar items, like some unsuccessful attempts at what he considered fine art (for his first exhibition, at an art center in Peoria, Ill.) and examples of his work for American Greeting Cards in Cleveland, his first job.

 

Especially noteworthy are several examples of the handmade comic book Arcade, the letters in the form of comics that Mr. Crumb sent to his best friend and mentor, Marty Pahls, after Mr. Pahls went away to college. They are interesting because they show Mr. Crumb using color, which is rare, and using it well, and because they indicate he was something of a prodigy.

 

The show's one incontestable masterpiece is "The Big Yum-Yum Book," the small bound book, each page meticulously drawn and colored, that Mr. Crumb gave to his first wife. ROBERTA SMITH

Mr. Natural Goes to the Museum

PHILADELPHIA — What a long, strange trip it’s been. Over the course of his five-decade career the comic artist R. Crumb has gone from hero of the hippie underground to toast of the international art world. Founder of the deliriously psychedelic and ribald Zap Comix during the Haight-Ashbury wonder years, he has more recently contributed comic strips made in collaboration with his wife, Aline Kominsky Crumb, to The New Yorker. In 2004 he was included in the Carnegie International and had a career retrospective at the Ludwig Museum in Cologne, Germany.

R. Crumb’s Underground One of the more than 100 works in this exhibition at the Institute of Contemporary Art in Philadelphia.

 

Now the Institute of Contemporary Art here offers “R. Crumb’s Underground,” an excellent opportunity to ponder Mr. Crumb’s incredible journey. This enthralling selection of more than 100 works from all phases of his career was organized by Todd Hignite, the publisher and editor of Comic Art magazine, for the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts in San Francisco, where it was on view in 2007.

 

Mr. Crumb is not the only artist to cross over from the comic-book ghetto to the fine-art museum. Gary Panter, Chris Ware and Daniel Clowes are just three of the better-known contemporary cartoonists who have helped to make the comic book a form to be taken seriously by sophisticated adults. But Mr. Crumb — a draftsman of transcendent skill, inventiveness and versatility, a fearlessly irreverent, excruciatingly funny satirist of all things modern and progressively high-minded, and an intrepid explorer of his own twisted psyche — remains the genre’s gold standard.

 

Born in Philadelphia in 1943, Mr. Crumb (first name, Robert) never went to art school. He learned to draw under the tutelage of his older brother, Charles, also an aspiring comic artist. In the early 1960s he designed greeting cards for the American Greetings Corporation in Cleveland. In 1967 he moved to San Francisco, where he would create some of the most memorable characters in cartoon history, including the irascible guru Mr. Natural and his hapless foil Flakey Foont; the suave, shamelessly randy Fritz the Cat; the angry amazon Devil Girl; and R. Crumb himself, a figure comparable to the autobiographical alter egos of Woody Allen and Philip Roth. Since the early 1990s Mr. Crumb and his wife have lived in the South of France.

 

The exhibition is full of wild sex. Mr. Crumb makes no bones about his lust for big, muscular women, and his uncensored erotic fantasy life is not only entertaining but also liberating. See “How to Have Fun With a Strong Girl” (2002), a suite of 12 drawings in which the scrawny Mr. Crumb climbs like a monkey all over a powerfully built young woman. We should all be so open to, and forgiving of, our libidinous fantasies.

 

But sex is not Mr. Crumb’s only preoccupation. He is also a great lover of early-20th-century popular music and a fanatical collector of old 78-r.p.m. records. A section of the exhibition devoted to his musical interests includes extended narratives about the sadly foreshortened lives of the blues musicians Charlie Patton and Tommy Grady. There is a humane, deeply moving tenderness to these works.

 

The influence of LSD, which Mr. Crumb has called his “road to Damascus,” is evident in works of funky surrealism from the ’60s and ’70s. The classic “Meatball” (1967), in which ordinary people from all walks of life are hit from out of the blue by consciousness-altering meatballs, is mysteriously trippy.

 

But what is also appealing in Mr. Crumb’s work is how often it is grounded in mundane reality. “Lap o’ Luxury” (1977), at 10 pages one of his longer productions, tells in detail all the events in one afternoon in the life of a little boy at home with his mom and his pesky younger brother. At one point he becomes sexually aroused by the cowboy boots on a woman who comes for a brief visit, but otherwise it is all good, clean fun.

 

Viewers should set aside two or three hours to take in this show. It requires a lot of reading, which brings up another of Mr. Crumb’s virtues: he is a gifted writer with a great ear for vernacular speech. An argument can be made that Mr. Crumb’s work is best consumed in book form. But there really is no substitute for seeing the original drawings, most of which are made with a fine black Rapidograph pen. The liveliness of his curiously old-fashioned draftsmanship comes across in print, but no reproduction can capture his subtlety of touch and alertness to the act of drawing.

 

Whatever the aesthetic and formal attractions of his work, Mr. Crumb’s penchant for barging past the limits of good taste and political correctness into psychologically juicy and dangerously complicated territory is still the main draw. His most amazingly provocative creation is Angelfood McSpade, a young, inky black, big-breasted African woman in a palm leaf skirt who was inspired by racist caricatures of the ’20s and ’30s. Sweet-tempered and dimwitted, the long-suffering Angelfood is subjected to all kinds of sexual abuse in various episodes Mr. Crumb has drawn. In one hilarious strip in the exhibition she is abducted and molested by aliens in a U.F.O.

 

Mr. Crumb’s outrageous play with the Angelfood character hinges on a theory that all people are at least unconsciously racist and that bringing racist fantasies fully to light is the best way to expose how stupid and cruel yet insidiously compelling they can be, especially when mixed with sexual fantasies. Kara Walker and Robert Colescott have toyed with racist stereotypes to similar ends.

 

But Angelfood represents something else for Mr. Crumb too. At the end of a zanily eventful four-page narrative from 1968 we see her dancing in the forest. “She spends her time bopping around in the jungle,” reads the caption, “just a simple, primitive creature! But if you dig her, go get her! If you dare!” In the final panel a man in a suit and tie hurries along a path in the opposite direction from a sign pointing to “Schmarvard Law School.” The words on his suitcase say, “Darkest Africa or Bust!”

 

Angelfood, in other words, is a symbol of modern man’s yearning for reconnection to his own misplaced instinctual life. In a sense that has been Mr. Crumb’s own lifelong mission: to stay imaginatively alive to his own deepest and most urgent desires, however embarrassing, distasteful or offensive they may appear to polite society. Angelfood is R. Crumb’s soul.

 

“R. Crumb’s Underground” continues through Dec. 7 at the Institute of Contemporary Art, 118 South 36th Street, Philadelphia; (215) 898-7108, icaphila.org.

Reflection for Today: Does a Church Appearing Fervent Mean That It Has the Work of the Holy Spirit?

 

Several months ago, I witnessed the pastors in our church vying with each other for the sake of fame and gain and jockeying for position, so much so that they even verbally attacked and disparaged each other during sermons. Their sermons were not enjoyable to listen to, and our spirits went unnourished. Furthermore, there was widespread cooling of the faith of brothers and sisters; they pursued wealth, they coveted physical pleasures and they followed worldly trends, giving all their attention to eating, drinking and having fun. Most of the time, some brothers and sisters simply did not attend gatherings, but instead only came when a disaster occurred in their lives or when there was some important holiday … Faced with this situation in our church, I left to look for a church that had the work of the Holy Spirit . I searched in many places, however, and discovered that most churches were just the same, and I began to lose hope. I recently found a church, however, which often put on shows and held events, and it even had pastors come from overseas to give sermons. The atmosphere in this church was very warm and enthusiastic, and many people attended each gathering. Looking at this church that was so ardent and at the brothers and sisters who attended gatherings so enthusiastically, I thought this must be a church that had the work of the Holy Spirit. It wasn’t long, however, before I discovered that, although appeared ardent, the sermons preached by the pastors were unable to provide benefits for the lives of brothers and sisters and were unable to satisfy our spirits. The singing and dancing that went on only had the effect of changing the atmosphere in the church—while it was going on, we all felt very energetic, but as soon as we sat down to listen to a pastor give a sermon, we would begin to doze off. Moreover, brothers and sisters were always trying to outdo each other with donations and prayers. Whoever donated a lot was considered to be someone who loved , and whoever prayed for a long time and said nice words in their prayers was considered to be a spiritual person…. In this kind of church, the brothers and sisters not only had no honesty or humility but, on the contrary, their vanity just got stronger and stronger and they became more and more hypocritical. They focused on expressing themselves and showing off in front of others and were exceedingly self-righteous and arrogant. Whenever they encountered an issue, they just dealt with it however they wanted, and they didn’t listen to anyone else—they were just not keeping to the Lord’s teachings at all. Faced with this kind of situation in the church, I couldn’t help but wonder: Could such a church that appears to be so fervent from the outside have the work of the Holy Spirit? This question has always perplexed me, so I’d like to ask if you could answer it for me.

 

recommenda to you: what is the holy spirit

 

From A Noise Within's web site:

 

"Constructed in the mid-fifties, the Stuart Pharmaceutical building was listed on the National Register in 1998. As provided in the National Register Registration Form, the property is significant at the state level "as an outstanding example of mid-century modern architecture in California, one of the earliest expressions... of the New Formalist (or Neo-Formal) style and of architect Edward Durell Stone's philosophy and work."

 

In 1958, The Stuart Pharmaceutical Building won the American Institute of Architecture's (AIA) prestigious Honor Award and appeared on the cover of Time Magazine alongside architect Edward Durell Stone. Noteworthy for its dramatic perforated facade screen, golden columns, reflecting pools and fountains, cantilevered eves, light filled atrium, and ingenious landscaping (designed by Thomas Church), the building operated under the ownership of Stuart Pharmaceutical Company until 1993.

 

Thomas Dolliver Church (1902-1978) was a pioneer in American landscape design and opened the door to the modern movement in landscape architecture with what came to be known as the "California Style." In 1951, Church received the Fine Arts Medal of the American Institute of Architects in recognition of his contribution to modern landscape architecture. "

 

The new theater was therefore built behind the existing facade, and its low to the ground construction preserves the look of the property. The old wall is now one side of a really neat breezeway, with sliding glass doors on the other side. You can sit out there. This, too, is very Old Socal.

 

Compared to the former venue in The Monolith, which was essentially a Masonic mastaba, the openness of this venue is most striking.

 

I like it.

 

Commemorative Air Force: Arizona Wing Lockheed PV-2 Harpoon configured as a RAF B-32 Ventura.

 

Derived from the PV-1 Ventura model, the PV-2 Harpoon made modifications on the previous model by increasing the wing area giving it more load-carrying capability. The redesign came about from weaknesses found in the PV-1 from poor-quality takeoffs with a full load of fuel. Armament was also upgraded to a standard five forward-firing machine gun arrangement. The bombardier's position from early PV-1s was also removed as part of the redesign in the PV-2. Due to the added weight, and the use of the same engines as the PV-1s, the Harpoon was unable to meet anticipated speed statistics. Initial stress tests on the wings uncovered a tendancy to dangerously wrinkle. As a result, deliver to the Navy was delayed until the redesign of the wings was completed.

 

The PV-2 Harpoon saw combat as part of the US Naval Reserve in the Pacific Theater up until the later 1940s. Surplus models ended up being supplied to nations such as Portugal, Peru, the Netherlands, Italy and Japan. Many models were converted into civilian VIP transport aircraft by the Howard Aero Services, while even more were coverted into mosquito-spray planes. Today, only a few remain in flying condition as historical warbirds.

 

The PV-2 Harpoon was a major redesign of the Ventura with the wing area increased from 551 ft² to 686 ft² giving an increased load-carrying capability. The motivation for redesign was weaknesses in the PV-1, since it had shown to have poor-quality takeoffs when carrying a full load of fuel. On the PV-2, the armament became standardised at five forward-firing machine guns. Many early PV-1s had a bombardier's position, which was deleted in the PV-2. Some other significant developments included the increase of the bombload by 30% to 4,000 lb. Another development was the ability to carry eight 5 in HVAR rockets under the wings.

 

While the PV-2 was expected to have increased range and better takeoff, the anticipated speed statistics were projected lower than those of the PV-1, due to the use of the same engines but an increase in weight. The Navy ordered 500 examples, designating them with the popular name Harpoon.

 

Early tests indicated a tendency for the wings to wrinkle dangerously. As this problem could not be solved by a 6 ft reduction in wingspan (making the wing uniformly flexible), a complete redesign of the wing was necessitated. This hurdle delayed entry of the PV-2 into service. The PV-2s already delivered were used for training purposes under the designation PV-2C. By the end of 1944, only 69 PV-2s had been delivered. They finally resumed when the redesign was complete. The first aircraft shipped were the PV-2D, which had eight forward-firing machine guns and was used in ground attacks. When World War II ended, all of the order was cancelled.

 

With the wing problems fixed, the PV-2 proved reliable, and eventually popular. It was first used in the Aleutians by VP-139, one of the squadrons that originally used the PV-1. It was used by a number of countries after the war’s end, but the United States ceased ordering new PV-2s, and they were all soon retired from service.

From www.circusesandsideshows.com/circuses/clydebeattycolebros...

 

1957 was a year of major changes for circuses, the economy had taken a dive in 1956 and circuses suffered through their seasons. In 1957 John Ringling North and Arthur Concello made the decision to leave the Ringling Bros. and Barnum &Bailey Circus tents behind and begin showing in buildings.

 

Also in 1957 the Clyde Beatty railroad circus was purchased by Frank McClosky, Walter Kernan, Jerry Collins and Randolph Calhoun. The show was moved from rails to trucks and began wintering in DeLand. FL., at the old Johnny J. Jones Shows, (a large carnival) winter quarters.

 

The partners in the new circus formed the "Acme Circus Operating Corporation", obtained the Cole Bros. title and took the show on the road as the Clyde Beatty Cole Bros. Circus in 1957. With it's excellent organization, experienced and dedicated staff and solid financial backing, the new show became a major player in the circus industry for the next 20-plus years.

 

The show was a beautiful site on the lot, with it white tents, (new canvas was purchased annually, brightly painted and well maintained equipment.

 

Randolph Calhoun, passed away 1n 1961, Walter Kernan in 1963 and Frank McClosky 1n 1979. After Frank McCloskey died the remaining owner Jerry Collins donated the show in it's entirety to the Florida State University in 1981 stating his disire to "..benefit people of all ages. I want to preserve the tented circus for children and also to help the students at Florida State.".

 

Johnny Pugh, who been a manager on the show since the mid-1960 purchased the show from FSU and has been operating it ever since, dropping "Clyde Beatty"from the title and operating it as the Cole Bros Circus

Pasting from Wikipedia: Maserati Coupé:

 

The Maserati Coupé and Spyder are grand tourers[1][2] produced by Italian automaker Maserati from 2002 to 2007. They have now been replaced by the GranTurismo.[3] The two nameplates refer to the four-seater coupé and two-seater roadster versions, respectively. Both models were based on the 3200 GT,[4][5] which was sold in Europe, but not in the United States. The Coupé and Spyder are both commonly referred to as the 4200 GT,[6][7] which is an evolution of the prior model name and a reference to the increase in engine displacement from 3.2 L (3217 cc) to 4.2 L (4244 cc).[8]

 

The Spyder was first unveiled to the public at the 2001 Frankfurt Auto Show with the Coupé's debut following shortly thereafter at the 2002 Detroit Auto Show.[9] Sales in the United States began in March 2002 for the Spyder and in May for the Coupé.[10] The release of the Spyder heralded Maserati's return to the North American market after an 11 year hiatus. Almost as soon as it was introduced, the Spyder was selected by Forbes as the Best GT for 2001.[2]

 

The Coupé and Spyder were designed by Giorgetto Giugiaro of ItalDesign, who also designed the Maserati Ghibli.[11] The cars were built at the Viale Ciro Menotti plant in Modena, Italy.

Design

 

The Maserati Coupé is a true four-seater capable of comfortably seating two adults in the back.[6][12] It has a wheelbase of 104.7 inches (2,660 mm) which is about three inches longer than a Jaguar XKR and twelve inches (305 mm) longer than a 996 Series Porsche 911.[4] Overall vehicle length is 178.1 inches (4,520 mm), width is 71.7 inches (1,820 mm), and height is 51.4 inches (1,310 mm). Total curb weight is 3,700 pounds (1,700 kg).[4]

 

The Maserati Spyder is a soft-top convertible that is electronically operated by a pushbutton on the center console. The top automatically stows beneath a hard cover that sits flush with the body in front of the trunk. Both deployment and stowage of the top takes about 30 seconds.[13] Arch-type roll bars are provided behind each seat. The Spyder's 96.1-inch (2,440 mm) wheelbase is 8.6 inches (220 mm) shorter than the Coupé's. Overall length is 169.4 inches (4,300 mm), width 71.7 inches (1,820 mm), and height 51.4 inches (1,310 mm). Curb weight is 3,792 pounds (1,720 kg).[14]

 

Equipment

 

The Maserati Coupé and Spyder utilize the same vehicle systems – engine, transmission, suspension, and interior driver and front passenger controls and safety equipment. Their performance specifications are almost identical, with some reviewers claiming that the Coupé has better performance due to its lesser weight and more rigid body structure,[1] while others measured faster performance from the Spyder.[4] Both models came standard with 18 inch alloy wheels that originally had a 15-spoke design, but after 2003 most buyers chose the optional 7-spoke sport wheels which became standard by 2005.[15] Maserati offered sixteen exterior colors, ten shades of leather interior[16] along with the ability to select among colors for various interior details such as the piping and stitching used.[17] Five colors for the Spyder's convertible top were also offered.[16]

 

Engine

 

Both models utilize the shared platform based Ferrari/Maserati 4244 cc engine which develops 390 hp (291 kW; 395 PS) at 7000 rpm with a peak torque of 333 foot-pounds force (451.5 N·m) at 4500 rpm.[18]

 

Significant changes from the prior 3200 GT engine were the larger displacement resulting from an increased cylinder bore diameter and the move to a naturally aspirated intake that replaced the twin-turbo approach Maserati had used for the previous 20 years, fundamentally because the powertrain is now Ferrari based.[19][20] The engine operates at a compression ratio of 11.1:1 with the cylinders configured in a 90° V8. The cylinder bore diameter is 92 millimetres (3.62 in) and piston stroke length is 80 millimetres (3.15 in).[18] The engine shares many of the design features of modern racing engines, including dry sump lubrication, a pump assembly located outside the crankcase, and four valves per cylinder.[21] The 32-valve DOHC utilizes chain-driven, twin-overhead camshafts that provide valve actuation in less than 0.15 seconds, with the intake cams being controlled by variable valve timing.[22] The crankcase and cylinder heads are made from an aluminum and silicon alloy, giving the engine a relatively light weight of 405 pounds (184 kg).[1]

 

Transmission

 

The manual transmission is a six-speed that was available either as a GT (manual stick shift) or CC (Cambiocorsa) using paddle shifters. The GT version utilizes a foot operated clutch, whereas the Cambiocorsa (Italian, meaning "race change")[23][24] is a electrohydraulic manual transmission that uses a Formula One-type gearbox with hydraulic operation and electronic management operated by F1-style paddles behind the steering wheel.[25] The system allows the driver to choose between four different operating modes: Normal, Sport, Auto and Low Grip. Each of these programs is selected by means of console-mounted buttons, corresponding to different types of operating mode. By switching between the Normal and Sport modes, the driver can select between different electronic stability control settings and, if installed, different active suspension settings.[25] The Normal mode provides a more comfortable ride, whereas the Sport mode stiffens up the suspension and provides fast gear shifts of around a quarter of a second.[23][26] Automatic mode electronically handles shifting of the transmission, but allows the driver to rapidly revert to manual using the F1-style paddles.[25] The Low Grip, or Ice mode, allows for smooth starting and gear changes on snow and ice.

 

The transmission gearbox is located at the rear of the vehicle and is integrated in with the differential. This gives both the Coupé and Spyder a 48/52% weight distribution between the front and rear axles.[25]

 

Suspension

 

The Maserati Coupé and Spyder both have a light alloy double wishbone suspension. The rear suspension is fitted with a toe-in regulator bar which enhances the precision of the drive train and provides balanced cornering. The front suspension layout incorporates “anti-dive” features to prevent nose-diving when braking. The suspension system is completed by front and rear anti-roll bars.[27][28]

 

Perhaps the most highly-regarded option is a computer-controlled suspension damping system called "Skyhook".[29] This adaptive damping system uses coil-over shock absorbers and a set of six accelerometers that continually monitor the movement of the wheels and car body and transmits this information to a control unit.[30] The vehicle's computer analyzes this data and coordinates it with the Cambiocorsa transmission and other Maserati safety systems. Skyhook then calculates, and recalculates, the data at least 40 times per second and instantaneously adjusts each shock absorber accordingly.[31] When placed in the Sport mode, the suspension firms up for better cornering.

 

Safety

 

Both vehicles are equipped with front and side driver and passenger airbags as well as seat belt pre-tensioners.[32] Driving stability is provided by Maserati Stability Program (MSP) which became standard on the 2004 models and controls the engine and brakes to help the driver control the vehicle in extreme driving situations.[33] The MSP system integrates four different vehicle systems - the anti-slip regulation traction control (ASR), the motor spin regulation (MSR), electronic brake force distribution (EBD), and anti-lock braking system (ABS).[33][34] The wheels employ a high-performance Brembo braking system with light alloy four-piston calipers and cross-drilled large ventilating discs.[35]

 

Interior

 

The Coupé and Spyder came standard with an information center that combines audio and climate controls.[36] An optional GPS navigation system and hands-free GSM phone were also available as options integrated into the info center.[37][38] Additional optional equipment includes xenon headlights, upgraded audio system and CD changer, electrochromic rear view mirror, rear parking sensors, seat heaters, and cruise control.[39] Various interior trim packages were offered, including a leather headliner featuring a grosgrain pattern, and either a carbon fiber kit or Briar wood kit sporting wood portions of the steering wheel, door trim, and shifter.[17] Purchasers could even order custom Maserati luggage, made to match their car's interiors.[40]

 

GranSport

 

The Maserati GranSport is a modified version of the Coupé and Spyder that was first unveiled at the 2004 Geneva Motor Show.[41] It is equipped with aerodynamic body cladding, a chrome mesh grille, carbon fiber interior trim, and special 19-inch (480 mm) wheels. It uses the Skyhook active suspension, with a 0.4 inch (10 mm) lower ride height, and the Cambiocorsa transmission is recalibrated for quicker shifts. The exhaust is also specially tuned to "growl" on start-up and full throttle.[42]

 

It is powered by the same 4244 cc, 90° V8 petrol engine used on the Coupé and Spyder. However, the engine develops 395 hp (295 kW; 400 PS) at 7000 rpm due primarily to a different exhaust system and improvements on the intake manifolds and valve seats.[43] A six-speed paddle shift transmission comes as standard. The car is 178.1 inches (4,520 mm) long, 71.7 inches (1,820 mm) wide, 51.0 inches (1,300 mm) high and weighs 3,704 pounds (1,680.1 kg).[44]

Preserved and on display at Musee Delta, Orly Airport, Paris, France

 

Concorde 02 F-WTSA was fourth aircraft to be manufactured, and the second of preproduction aircraft.

 

Sierra-Alpha was the first to have dimensions and the shape of future the production aircraft: it had the extended tail cone fitted as well as the production specification secondary engine nozzle, with the thrust reverse buckets.

 

02 was the first Concorde to be visit the United States when she visited Dallas, Texas on September 20, 1973. It returned to Europe by carrying out the first crossing of the North Atlantic, between Washington and Orly, under the conditions of a passenger flight, with 32 passengers invited on his board on the September 26, 1973. The flight time was in 3 hours and 33 minutes of effective flight, with a block time of 3 hours and 47 minutes.

 

For several years during testing the aircraft was painted in British Airways colours on one side and Air France's 1970's livery on the other, although still being registered as a French aircraft. Today it has an Air France colour scheme

 

The aircraft completed its 313rd and final test flight on January 29, 1976. Its work took in such areas as the development of new engines, and a considerable number (134) rolling runway tests for amongst other things the certification of the new carbon brakes, the water deflectors and thrust reversers...etc?

 

F-WTSA's final flight was between Toulouse and Paris Orly on May 20, 1976. Takeoff was at 15:19 ans seh arrived into at Orly 16:26, where an ADP team will take over responsibility for the aircraft. It was gifted to ADP, the operator of Orly and other Paris airport in 1976 to replace a full size wooden replica that was originally on show at the airport, which was destroyed by fire a few years earlier.

 

The aircraft was decommissioned with the engines and of many parts being recovered to be used as spares on the Air France fleet. As the aircraft was going on public display its test equipment installations were removed, and its cabin was reconfigured to give her the interior of an in-service aircraft.

 

In 1988, ADP, the Orly airport operator decided that Concorde 02 was no longer a priority and condemned it to be scrap and to be cut out of pieces. Athis-Paray-Aviation saved Sierra Alpha from this tragedy, and since April 12, 1988, it has been on display at the Museum Delta in Athis-Mons, just outside the airport.

From the notecards:

About Imago Anatopism:

 

The project tells the tale of Volund, a nordic, elf, a symbol following Joseph Campbell's "Hero with a Thousand Faces." Volund undergoes many persona changes during his travels in which he encounters several others that shape and transform him.

 

Stage 1: At the start of the tale Volund, a Norsk elf who is probably born on the edge of the world between Midgaard – the home of humans, and Utgaard – the home home of giants, is still a young boy who is taken by his father to a mountian where a tribe of dwarfs are to teach him the craft of blacksmithing.

 

At this early stage all Volund gets are the basics: Skin, shape, eyes and a pair of shoes.

 

Stage 2: This is the stage in which Volund is refuses the call to the adventure. He is still a timid boy who does not hear, or misinterprets the call or may even misuse the call since he is not yet mature enough to make his own decisions and only follows the decisions of others. All this leads to the murder of his father which makes Volund realise life's dangers and the magnitude of his task.

 

Symbolizing this blindness, at stage 2 Volund only gets a mask as an attachment.

 

Stage 3: Setting out on his adventure, Volund goes back to the mountain in order to learn further secrets of forging and the creation of magic tools from the dwarf. Such supernatural aids are both good and bad and once Volund puts on his magic belt and helmet he realizes that it is the dwarfs that killed his father. This makes them his enemy and he has a narrow escape as he leaves the mountain.

 

Thus, at stage 3 Volund gets a magic belt and helmet as two new attachments.

 

Stage 4: The idea of the entering another world is often symbolized by the belly of the whale. Volund is no different in this regard, and he throws himself into the ocean to float away to the unknown.

 

Thus, at stage 4 Volund gets a harpoon as a new attachment.

 

Stage 5: It is at this stage that Volund starts discovering his strength and power. He now has the ability to forge magic objects, such as life-like statues and wonderful weapons. It is at this stage that Volund meets a valkyrie (in this instance, a symbol for the concept of "goddess"), whom he first sees as a swan who is taking off her feathers in order to bathe in lake. Volund hides her feathers and makes her his first wife. However she leaves him at the end of 7 years when she finally finds her feathers and flees away.

 

"She is the mother, sister, mistress, bride," Campbell writes of the goddess. But she is also the death of of everything that dies. Campbell continues: "Woman, in the picture language of mythology, represents the totality of what can be known. The hero is the one who comes to know."

 

At stage 5 Volund gets a big present that he gives to the goddess as an offering as a new attachment.

 

Stage 6: Volund gets 9 rings from the valkyrie, which is a symbol of union. However these ring are also things that he can measure his own forging up against.

 

Stage 7: Volund is now supposed to start his journey back home, with newly gained wisdom. However, he faces yet another obstacle through the king who tries to hinder Volund from leaving by crippling him.

 

Thus, unsurprisingly, at this stage Volund gets a cane. There are several versions of this with different poses.

 

Stage 8: Volund gets his revenge upon the king by raping his daughter.

 

To quote Campbell again: "And always, after the first thrills of getting under way, the adventure develops into a journey of darkness, horror, disgust and phantasmagoric fears."

 

And so, at this stage Volund gets a caged bird with which he can seduce the king's daughter.

 

Stage 9: Volund has now made the king's daughter pregnant. However, in order to ensure that his own son inherits the throne, Volund also takes the precaution of killing the king's two sons.

 

Thus, at this stage the new attachment that Volund gets is a sword.

 

Stage 10: We are now nearing the end of the story and Volund sits bird-like on a roof, and tells the king what has happend and what the future will be.

 

Stage 11: While Volund started his journey in the ocean his return home is through the sky. He forges himself a huge pair of wings with which he flies back home.

 

Stage 12: We have come to the end of the tale and Volund has finally returned home as a wiser, older man who now deserves to put on the shiled and mantle of the hero.

 

Campbell writes: ”The hero is the champion of things becoming, not of things become, because he is.” And later ”Having died to his personal ego, he arose again established in the Self”.

Any reference to (RoH) means the Roll of Honour Website, to which I am deeply indebted.

 

www.roll-of-honour.com/Norfolk/Aylsham.html

The Roll of Honour site refers to the War memorial in the churchyard. Although there is also a wooden memorial plaque in the church, this appears to be identical in practically every detail, other than adding that the Korean War individual died in 1952.

His 28 year old mother, Sophia, (marital status listed as Single), is also resident, along with possibly a sister of Sophia, Sarah, aged 22 who is described as “feeble-minded”. All were born in Cawston.

On the Day the 1st Norfolks were engaged in the battle of St Julian, (part of 2nd Ypres), which had seen the first use of poison gas on the Western Front. This part of 2nd Ypres was coming to an end, with troops being pulled back to more defensible lines after several holes had been punched in the Allied front. I can find no reference specifically to the 1st Norfolks on this date, but the 1st Bedfords, in the same Brigade were definitely in the front line and being subject to gas attack.

1901 Census The 10 year old Cecil Civel is living at The Street, Ingworth and is recorded as being at School. There is no place of birth shown for him, but it is likely that it is Martham, the same as his sister

Dora Daymer, (aged 24 and a Draper). Their parents are William, (aged 49 and a Police Pensioner from Cawston), and Emily, (aged 47 and a Grocer from Ingworth).

<On the DayOn 12th October 1915 the Battalion moved from billets to a line in front of the St Elie Quarries, taking over from the Coldstream Guards. The attack was planned to go ahead the following day under a smoke cloud with the Norfolks closing on the German trenches from both ends of their position thus straightening their line, their own trenches being in a semi-circle. The left side of the Battalion was also tasked with bombing a German communications trench. A bright sunny day with an ideal wind for moving the smoke towards the enemy positions, the artillery bombardment began at 12:00 and was intensive by 13:45. 54 heavy and 86 field howitzers and 286 field guns fired on enemy trenches in the area of the Hohenzollern Redoubt, Fosse 8, the Quarries, Gun Trench and the positions south to Chalk Pit Wood. It failed to cause sufficient damage to the enemy positions. The smoke barrage went wrong and ceased by 13:40, twenty minutes before the attack was launched at 14:00 and was thus very thin. German machine gun fire from in front and from the direction of Slag Alley, opposite the Norfolks right flank, enfiladed their attack. Whilst they gained a foothold in the Quarries and consolidated the position they were unable to advance further. In the battalions first serious engagement they lost 5 Officers killed or died of wounds and 6 wounded, and 66 other ranks killed, 196 wounded and 160 missing.

The attack on Gavrelle was commenced on 23 April and was carried out by the 189th and 190th Brigades. At 4.45 a.m. Nelson and Drake battalions went over the top under cover of an artillery barrage. The first line of German trenches was quickly taken, and an hour later the attack was ceased at the edge of the village.

 

The artillery barrage was relocated across the village, which was reduced to rubble. Other battalions from the brigade were moved forward. House to house fighting led to the taking of Gavrelle, at the cost of 1,500 casualties.

Virtually all the remaining reservists of the original Royal Naval Division lost their lives at Gavrelle. They were the veterans who had survived the fighting at Gallipoli and at the Ancre.

This points us to a possible match on the CWGC database - Charles Herbert Lee who was 26 when he died on the 14/11/1918. His wife had re-married, and was now living at Aldborough, but Charles is buried in the Churchyard of St Giles, Colby, Norfolk. Charles is on the Colby War Memorial. He had served as a Pioneer in the Royal Engineers.

On the Day 19th April 1917 During the 2nd Battle of Gaza,

Facing the Tank Redoubt was the 161st Brigade of the 54th Division. To their right were the two Australian battalions (1st and 3rd) of the Imperial Camel Corps Brigade who had dismounted about 4,000 yards from their objective. As the infantry went in to attack at 7.30am they were joined by a single tank called "The Nutty" which attracted a lot of shell fire. The tank followed a wayward path towards the redoubt on the summit of a knoll where it was fired on point blank by four field guns until it was stopped and set alight in the middle of the position.

The infantry and the 1st Camel Battalion, having suffered heavy casualties on their approach, now made a bayonet charge against the trenches. About 30 "Camels" and 20 of the British infantry (soldiers of the 5th (territorial Battalion of the Norfolk Regiment) reached the redoubt, then occupied by around 600 Turks who immediately broke and fled towards their second line of defences to the rear.

The British and Australians held on unsupported for about two hours by which time most had been wounded. With no reinforcements at hand and a Turkish counter-attack imminent, the survivors endeavoured to escape back to their own lines.

Documenta From Wikipedia,

 

The Fridericianum during documenta (13)

documenta is an exhibition of contemporary art which takes place every five years in Kassel, Germany. It was founded by artist, teacher and curator Arnold Bode in 1955 as part of the Bundesgartenschau (Federal Horticultural Show) which took place in Kassel at that time.[1] It was an attempt to bring Germany up to speed with modern art, both banishing and repressing the cultural darkness of Nazism.[2] This first documenta featured many artists who are generally considered to have had a significant influence on modern art (such as Picasso and Kandinsky). The more recent documentas feature art from all continents; nonetheless most of it is site-specific.

 

Every documenta is limited to 100 days of exhibition, which is why it is often referred to as the "museum of 100 days".[3] Documenta is not a selling exhibition. It rarely coincides with the three other major art world events: the Venice Biennale, Art Basel and Skulptur Projekte Münster, but in 2017, all four were open simultaneously.

  

Etymology of documenta

The name of the exhibition is an invented word. The term is supposed to demonstrate the intention of every exhibition (in particular of the first documenta in 1955) to be a documentation of modern art which was not available for the German public during the Nazi era. Rumour spread from those close to Arnold Bode that it was relevant for the coinage of the term that the Latin word documentum could be separated into docere (Latin for teach) and mens (Latin for intellect) and therefore thought it to be a good word to describe the intention and the demand of the documenta.[4]

 

Each edition of documenta has commissioned its own visual identity, most of which have conformed to the typographic style of solely using lowercase letters, which originated at the Bauhaus.[5]

 

History

 

Stadtverwaldung by Joseph Beuys, oaktree in front of the museum Fridericianum, documenta 7

Art professor and designer Arnold Bode from Kassel was the initiator of the first documenta. Originally planned as a secondary event to accompany the Bundesgartenschau, this attracted more than 130,000 visitors in 1955. The exhibition centred less on "contemporary art“, that is art made after 1945: instead, Bode wanted to show the public works which had been known as "Entartete Kunst" in Germany during the Nazi era: Fauvism, Expressionism, Cubism, Blauer Reiter, Futurism and Pittura Metafisica. Therefore, abstract art, in particular the abstract paintings of the 1920s and 1930s, was the focus of interest in this exhibition.

 

Over time, the focus shifted to contemporary art. At first, the show was limited to works from Europe, but soon covered works by artists from the Americas, Africa and Asia. 4. documenta, the first ever to turn a profit, featured a selection of Pop Art, Minimal Art, and Kinetic Art.[6] Adopting the theme of Questioning Reality – Pictorial Worlds Today, the 1972 documenta radically redefined what could be considered art by featuring minimal and conceptual art, marking a turning point in the public acceptance of those styles.[7] Also, it devoted a large section to the work of Adolf Wolfli, the great Swiss outsider, then unknown. Joseph Beuys performed repeatedly under the auspices of his utopian Organization for Direct Democracy.[8] Additionally, the 1987 documenta show signaled another important shift with the elevation of design to the realm of art – showing an openness to postmodern design.[9] Certain key political dates for wide-reaching social and cultural upheavals, such as 1945, 1968 or 1976/77, became chronological markers of documenta X (1997), along which art's political, social, cultural and aesthetic exploratory functions were traced.[10] Documenta11 was organized around themes like migration, urbanization and the post-colonial experience,[11] with documentary photography, film and video as well as works from far-flung locales holding the spotlight.[7] In 2012, documenta (13) was described as "[a]rdently feminist, global and multimedia in approach and including works by dead artists and selected bits of ancient art".[12]

 

Criticism

documenta typically gives its artists at least two years to conceive and produce their projects, so the works are often elaborate and intellectually complex.[13] However, the participants are often not publicised before the very opening of the exhibition. At documenta (13), the official list of artists was not released until the day the show opened.[14] Even though curators have often claimed to have gone outside the art market in their selection, participants have always included established artists. In the documenta (13), for example, art critic Jerry Saltz identified more than a third of the artists represented by the renowned Marian Goodman Gallery in the show.[14]

 

Directors

The first four documentas, organized by Arnold Bode, established the exhibition's international credentials. Since the fifth documenta (1972), a new artistic director has been named for each documenta exhibition by a committee of experts. Documenta 8 was put together in two years instead of the usual five. The original directors, Edy de Wilde and Harald Szeemann, were unable to get along and stepped down. They were replaced by Manfred Schneckenburger, Edward F. Fry, Wulf Herzogenrath, Armin Zweite, and Vittorio Fagone.[15] Coosje van Bruggen helped select artists for documenta 7, the 1982 edition. documenta IX's team of curators consisted of Jan Hoet, Piero Luigi Tazzi, Denys Zacharopoulos, and Bart de Baere.[16] For documenta X Catherine David was chosen as the first woman and the first non-German speaker to hold the post. It is also the first and unique time that its website Documenta x was conceived by a curator (swiss curator Simon Lamunière) as a part of the exhibition. The first non-European director was Okwui Enwezor for Documenta11.[17]

2012's edition was organized around a central node, the trans-Atlantic melding of two distinct individuals who first encountered each other in the "money-soaked deserts of the United Arab Emirates". As an organizing principle it is simultaneously a commentary on the romantic potentials of globalization and also a critique of how digital platforms can complicate or interrogate the nature of such relationships. Curatorial agents refer to the concept as possessing a "fricative potential for productive awkwardness," wherein a twosome is formed for the purposes of future exploration.[23]

 

Venues

documenta is held in different venues in Kassel. Since 1955, the fixed venue has been the Fridericianum. The documenta-Halle was built in 1992 for documenta IX and now houses some of the exhibitions. Other venues used for documenta have included the Karlsaue park, Schloss Wilhelmshöhe, the Neue Galerie, the Ottoneum, and the Kulturzentrum Schlachthof. Though Okwui Enezor notably tried to subvert the euro-centric approach documenta had taken, he instigated a series of five platforms before the Documenta11 in Vienna, Berlin, New Delhi, St Lucia, and Lagos, in an attempt to take documenta into a new post-colonial, borderless space, from which experimental cultures could emerge. documenta 12 occupied five locations, including the Fridericianum, the Wilhelmshöhe castle park and the specially constructed "Aue-Pavillon", or meadow pavilion, designed by French firm Lacaton et Vassal.[24] At documenta (13) (2012), about a fifth of the works were unveiled in places like Kabul, Afghanistan, and Banff, Canada.[13]

 

There are also a number of works that are usually presented outside, most notably in Friedrichsplatz, in front of the Fridericianum, and the Karlsaue park. To handle the number of artworks at documenta IX, five connected temporary "trailers" in glass and corrugated metal were built in the Karlsaue.[25] For documenta (13), French architects Anne Lacaton and Jean-Philippe Vassal constructed the temporary "Aue-Pavillon" in the park.

  

Rahmenbau (1977) by Haus Rucker und Co.

A few of the works exhibited at various documentas remained as purchases in Kassel museums. They include 7000 Eichen by Joseph Beuys; Rahmenbau (1977) by Haus-Rucker-Co; Laserscape Kassel (1977) by Horst H. Baumann; Traumschiff Tante Olga (1977) by Anatol Herzfeld; Vertikaler Erdkilometer by Walter De Maria; Spitzhacke (1982) by Claes Oldenburg; Man walking to the sky (1992) by Jonathan Borofsky; and Fremde by Thomas Schütte (one part of the sculptures are installed on Rotes Palais at Friedrichsplatz, the other on the roof of the Concert Hall in Lübeck).

 

documenta archive

The extensive volume of material that is regularly generated on the occasion of this exhibition prompted Arnold Bode to create an archive in 1961. The heart of the archive’s collection comes from the files and materials of the documenta organization. A continually expanding video and image archive is also part of the collection as are the independently organized bequests of Arnold Bode and artist Harry Kramer.

 

Management

Visitors

In 1992, on the occasion of documenta IX, for the first time in the history of the documenta, more than half a million people traveled to Kassel.[26] The 2002 edition of documenta attracted 650,000 visitors, more than triple Kassel's population.[27] In 2007, documenta 12 drew 754,000 paying visitors, with more than one-third of the visitors coming from abroad and guests from neighboring Netherlands, France, Belgium and Austria among the most numerous.[28] In 2012, documenta (13) had 904,992 visitors.[21]

lumbung

Short concept by ruangrupa for documenta 15

"We want to create a globally oriented, cooperative, interdisciplinary art and culture platform that will remain effective beyond the 100 days of documenta fifteen. Our curatorial approach aims at a different kind of collaborative model of resource use—economically, but also in terms of ideas, knowledge, programs, and innovation."

  

ruangrupa’s central curatorial approach for documenta fifteen is based on the principles of collectivity, resource building, and equal sharing. They aim to appeal not just to an art audience but to a variety of communities, and to promote local commitment and participation. Their approach is based on an international network of local, community-based organizations from the art and other cultural contexts and can be outlined by the Indonesian term lumbung. lumbung, directly translatable as “rice barn,” is a collective pot or accumulation system used in rural areas of Indonesia, where crops produced by a community are stored as a future shared common resource and distributed according to jointly determind criteria. Using lumbung as a model, documenta fifteen is a collective resource pot, operating under the logics of the commons. It is an agglomeration of ideas, stories, (wo)manpower, time, and other shareable resources. At the center of lumbung is the imagination and the building of these collective, shared resources into new models of sustainable ideas and cultural practices. This will be fostered by residencies, assemblies, public activities, and the development of tools.

 

Interdisciplinarity is key in this process. It is where art meets activism, management, and networking to gather support, understand environments, and identify local resources. These elements then create actions and spaces, intertwine social relations and transactions; they slowly grow and organically find a public form. This is a strategy “to live in and with society.” It imagines the relations an art institution has with its community by being an active constituent of it. Strategies are then developed based on proximity and shared desires.

 

The main principles of the process are:

• Providing space to gather and explore ideas

• Collective decision making

• Non-centralization

• Playing between formalities and informalities

• Practicing assembly and meeting points

• Architectural awareness

• Being spatially active to promote conversation

• A melting pot for and from everyone’s thoughts, energies, and ideas

VENICE BIENNALE / VENEZIA BIENNIAL 2013 : BIENNALIST

www.emergencyrooms.org/biennalist.html

 

Biennalist is an Art Format by Thierry Geoffroy / Colonel debating with artistic tools on Biennales and other cultural managed events . Often those events promote them selves with thematics and press releases faking their aim . Biennalist take the thematics of the Biennales very seriously , and test their pertinance . Artists have questioned for decade the canvas , the pigment , the museum ... since 1989 we question the Biennales .Often Biennalist converge with Emergency Room providing a burning content that cannot wait ( today before it is too late )

august 6, 1945

contrary to the 1923 hague convention concerning the rules of aerial warfare wich make it expressly illegal to bomb civilians and their property and prohibits the use of bombing for the puposes of terrorizing civilians, the united states of america drop an atomic bomb on the japanese city of hiroshima.

a non military target.

resulting in the death of an estimated 100,000 persons.

three days later, another 50'000 or more people are annialated when the united states of america drops a second bomb on the civilian population of nagasaki.

it is formerly declared that these actions were undertaken to avoid invasion of the japanese mainlandand could potentialy avoid the loss of a half million americans and perhaps 3 times as many japanse.

even though japan had been attempting to reconcile the terms of surrender months prior to the bombing.

For the Panel

 

June 16, 1945

You have asked us to comment on the initial use of the new weapon. This use, in our opinion, should be such as to promote a satisfactory adjustment of our international relations. At the same time, we recognize our obligation to our nation to use the weapons to help save American lives in the Japanese war.

 

(1) To accomplish these ends we recommend that before the weapons are used not only Britain, but also Russia, France, and China be advised that we have made considerable progress in our work on atomic weapons, that these may be ready to use during the present war, and that we would welcome suggestions as to how we can cooperate in making this development contribute to improved international relations.

 

(2) The opinions of our scientific colleagues on the initial use of these weapons are not unanimous: they range from the proposal of a purely technical demonstration to that of the military application best designed to induce surrender. Those who advocate a purely technical demonstration would wish to outlaw the use of atomic weapons, and have feared that if we use the weapons now our position in future negotiations will be prejudiced. Others emphasize the opportunity of saving American lives by immediate military use, and believe that such use will improve the international prospects, in that they are more concerned with the prevention of war than with the elimination of this specific weapon. We find ourselves closer to these latter views; we can propose no technical demonstration likely to bring an end to the war; we see no acceptable alternative to direct military use.

 

(3) With regard to these general aspects of the use of atomic energy, it is clear that we, as scientific men, have no proprietary rights. It is true that we are among the few citizens who have had occasion to give thoughtful consideration to these problems during the past few years. We have, however, no claim to special competence in solving the political, social, and military problems which are presented by the advent of atomic power

MEMORANDUM ON THE USE OF S-1 BOMB:

 

Ever since I have been in touch with this program I have had a feeling that before the bomb is actually used against Japan that Japan should have some preliminary warning for say two or three days in advance of use. The position of the United States as a great humanitarian nation and the fair play attitude of our people generally is responsible in the main for this feeling.

 

During recent weeks I have also had the feeling very definitely that the Japanese government may be searching for some opportunity which they could use as a medium of surrender. Following the three-power conference emissaries from this country could contact representatives from Japan somewhere on the China Coast and make representations with regard to Russia's position and at the same time give them some information regarding the proposed use of atomic power, together with whatever assurances the President might care to make with regard to the Emperor of Japan and the treatment of the Japanese nation following unconditional surrender. It seems quite possible to me that this presents the opportunity which the Japanese are looking for.

 

I don't see that we have anything in particular to lose in following such a program. The stakes are so tremendous that it is my opinion very real consideration should be given to some plan of this kind. I do not believe under present circumstances existing that there is anyone in this country whose evaluation of the chances of the success of such a program is worth a great deal. The only way to find out is to try it out.

The written order for the use of the atomic bomb against Japanese cities was drafted by General Groves. President Truman and Secretary of War Stimson approved the order at Potsdam.

 

The order made no mention of targetting military objectives or sparing civilians. The cities themselves were the targets. The order was also open-ended. "Additional bombs" could be dropped "as soon as made ready by the project staff."

Description :The Bengali Language Movement: and in Bangali Trnslation to ভাষা আন্দোলন

  

The Bengali Language Movement: Can read In Bangoli here]ভাষা আন্দোলন, also known as the Language Movement (Bengali: ভাষা আন্দোলন; Bhasha Andolon), was a political effort in Bangladesh (then known as East Pakistan), advocating the recognition of the Bengali language as an official language ofPakistan. Such recognition would allow Bengali to be used in government affairs.When the state of Pakistan was formed in 1947, its two regions, East Pakistan (also called East Bengal) and West Pakistan, were split along cultural, geographical, and linguistic lines. In 1948, the Government of Pakistan ordained Urdu as the sole national language, sparking extensive protests among the Bengali-speaking majority of East Pakistan. Facing rising sectarian tensions and mass discontent with the new law, the government outlawed public meetings and rallies. The students of the University of Dhaka and other political activists defied the law and organised a protest on 21 February 1952. The movement reached its climax when police killed student demonstrators on that day. The deaths provoked widespread civil unrest led by the Awami Muslim League, later renamed the Awami League. After years of conflict, the central government relented and granted official status to the Bengali language in 1956. In 2000,UNESCO declared 21 February International Mother Language Day for the whole world to celebrate[1], in tribute to the Language Movement and the ethno-linguistic rights of people around the world.The Language Movement catalysed the assertion of Bengali national identity in Pakistan, and became a forerunner to Bengali nationalist movements, including the 6-point movement and subsequently the Bangladesh Liberation War in 1971. In Bangladesh, 21 February is observed as Language Movement Day, a national holiday. The Shaheed Minar monument was constructed near Dhaka Medical College in memory of the movement and its victims

 

Background

 

The present nations of Pakistan and Bangladesh were part of undivided India during the British colonial rule. From the mid-19th century, the Urdu language had been promoted as thelingua franca of Indian Muslims by political and religious leaders such as Sir Khwaja Salimullah, Sir Syed Ahmed Khan, Nawab Viqar-ul-Mulk and Maulvi Abdul Haq.[2][3] Urdu is an Indo-Aryan language of the Indo-Iranian branch, belonging to the Indo-European family of languages. It developed under Persian, Arabic and Turkic influence on apabhramshas (last linguistic stage of the medieval Indian Aryan language Pali-Prakrit)[4] in South Asia during the Delhi Sultanate and Mughal Empire.[5] With its Perso-Arabic script, the language was considered a vital element of the Islamic culture for Indian Muslims; Hindi and the Devanagari script were seen as fundamentals of Hindu culture.[2]While the use of Urdu grew common with Muslims in northern India, the Muslims of Bengal (a province in the eastern part of British Indian sub-continent) primarily used the Bengali language. Bengali is an Eastern Indo-Aryan language that arose from the eastern Middle Indic languages around 1000 CE[6] and developed considerably during the Bengal Renaissance. As early as the late 19th century, social activists such as the Muslim feminist Roquia Sakhawat Hussain were choosing to write in Bengali to reach out to the people and develop it as a modern literary language. Supporters of Bengali opposed Urdu even before the partition of India, when delegates from Bengal rejected the idea of making Urdu the lingua franca of Muslim India in the 1937 Lucknow session of the Muslim League. The Muslim League was a British Indian political party that became the driving force behind the creation of Pakistan as a Muslim state separate from British India.[7]

MILT CANIFF

The King of the Comic Strips

 

Milton Caniff

From The Early Years To Terry and the Pirates

Milton Caniff, to most comics fans, will always be regarded as the major leading light of the syndicated comic strip. He was a pioneer of a visual style of story telling that's widely imitated but seldom achieved, establishing innovations that would become a yardstick for all that followed in his footsteps. No major comics artists today remain untouched by his influences.

 

Milton Caniff was born on February 28, 1907 in Hillsboro, Ohio. His art career began in a significant way when, as a young boy, he discovered a trunk containing drawings by the early newspaper cartoonist, John T. McCutchen. "This was my first inspiration as an artist in wanting to draw pictures at all, " Caniff would recall. The trunk discovery was significant in another way, in the kind of coincidence that usually only happens in fiction, because years later McCutchen helped to launch the famous Terry and the Pirates!

 

It's likely that Caniff would have become a cartoonist without the trunk. From the very beginning he displayed a talent for art that was amply displayed in school journals and by the eighth grade he had already had a cartoon published in a local paper. By high school he was already freelancing for a newspaper art department, and by the time he reached college Caniff was providing art on the side for the Dayton Journal, the Miami Daily News, and the Columbus Dispatch, while still finding time to attend classes and participate in theatrical productions.

 

After graduating college Caniff found full time work at the Dispatch, spending nights working on a few abortive comic strip attempts. The new job only lasted a short time when the Depression struck, forcing the Dispatch to downsize.

 

Caniff's unemployment only lasted a short while; fortunately the Associated Press of New York had noticed clippings of the young artist's work and offered him a job. The timing was right; Caniff arrived in the Big Apple just in time for 1932's Presidential campaign, and his published portrait of Franklin D. Roosevelt appeared in papers all across the country, his first national exposure. While at AP the artist met a fellow worker who would equal his own success as a cartoonist, Al Capp. (Appropriately enough it was on April Fool's Day.) The two men became life-long friends and when Capp left the unfunny strip he had been assigned, Mr. Gilfeather, Caniff inherited the feature, turning it into the more palatable The Gay Thirties.

 

In addition to the single panel feature on life in America, Caniff was given a multi-paneled adventure strip to work on, Dickie Dare. The strip began in July 1933 and featured Dickie's daydreams of fighting along side Robin Hood and his Merry Men, hunting treasure with Long John Silver, and adventuring with Robinson Crusoe. Caniff lasted a year on the strip, which was to continue on until the late fifties, capably handled by Coulton Waugh and his wife, Mabel "Odin" Burvik.

 

Caniff had gotten a better offer from Colonel Patterson of the Chicago Tribune-New York News Syndicate in the fall of 1934. The new job offer came about thanks to another cartoonist who had noticed Caniff's clippings, John McCutchen, the same artist who drew the inspirational cartoons that Caniff had discovered in his mother's trunk!

 

Patterson had been looking for something similar to Dickie Dare, and exotic adventure strip that featured a leading adult and a youthful sidekick. Caniff filled that bill with Terry and the Pirates, which first appeared on October 22, 1934. The continuity opened with the story of Terry Lee, an American boy, his adult pal Pat Ryan, and a clever Chinese servant named Connie, "chief cook and philosopher." The three set out for an abandoned treasure mine but soon find themselves stranded and penniless in a China swarming with brigands, warlords, and hostile Japanese troops.

 

Caniff's early work on the strip was good enough for the times but crude in comparison to what would come later. A big boost in his evolution as an artist came from teaming up with another young comics legend, Noel Sickles, the artist on the AP Scorchy Smith strip.

 

The two men, who had once shared a studio in Ohio, worked in tandem, writing and drawing for each other's strips, in the process developing a novel and time saving method for indicating detail, using a impressionistic brushwork technique known as "chiaroscuro." The technique became Caniff's trademark. As Jules Fieffer once said, "Black is Milton Caniff's primary color."

 

Caniff's mastery of light and dark, his talent for action scenes and camera angles, and his flair for dramatic storytelling all contributed to the popularity of Terry and the Pirates. Another strength of the strip has been its reliance on realism.

 

Caniff realized that potential fan interest must be immediately captured in a strip's first year. "Since a person must read the balloons to get the story," Caniff once said, "I thought I could catch them with vivid color and illustrations rather than straight cartoons. This meant that there'd have to be absolute authenticity."

 

Caniff worked long hours to achieve his goal, consulting with experts in every field. In one sequence involving an amphibious invasion, Caniff dug into thirty-eight books in order to nail down such details as to what military hospitals looked like and whether or not Japanese bombers veered to the right or left when launched from aircraft carriers.

 

Caniff read every book he could find the Orient, becoming more concerned with the problems China faced from the Japanese invaders, predicting in his strip that an inevitable conflict would break out between the U.S. and Hirohito's Imperial forces.

 

Pat and Terry shared the strip with an intriguing cast of supporting characters. To name just a few, there was Captain Judas, Burma, Big Stoop, Chopstick Joe, Dude Hennick, Cherry Blaze, Cue Ball, and one of the greatest of femme fatales, The Dragon Lady, who often played both sides of the fence. Caniff was a master of characterization; readers really got to know and care about many of his cast.

 

This point was amply illustrated in a famous 1941 episode, the death of Raven Sherman. A full week of continuity passed as Raven, wounded by the treacherous Captain Judas, slowly ebbs away on a lonely trail in China until finally, "as it must to every one," she dies. And then, as Caniff says, "The roof fell in!" Caniff was flooded with flower deliveries, mock memorial services, petitions of condolence signed by disparate groups as factory workers and entire colleges, as well as a lot of irate letters. For years afterwards the cartoonist would continue to get black-edged cards on the anniversary of Raven's death. Proving that perhaps, as Caniff put it, "the impacts of both picture and words drives more deeply into human awareness than any anthropologist has yet cared to note."

 

Perhaps so. But Caniff also noted that Raven was killed in October 1941. "If it had happened two months later, nobody would even remember her name today." Milton Caniff, to most comics fans, will always be regarded as the major leading light of the syndicated comic strip. He was a pioneer of a visual style of story telling that's widely imitated but seldom achieved, establishing innovations that would become a yardstick for all that followed in his footsteps. No major comics artists today remain untouched by his influences.

 

Two months after Milton Caniff's famous death-of-Raven sequence, the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor and the United States' role in the Second World War had begun. Caniff had depicted Japan's aggression in China (as well as Japanese-Nazi collaboration) in Terry and the Pirates years before war broke out. "There was no general realization of impending war between Japan and the United States," said Caniff, "but anyone who could read newspapers could put it together. The Sino-Japanese war just served as a beacon for future sequences. I foresaw a terrific struggle for the Allies."

 

Terry joined in that struggle, having finally grown to young adulthood, and got his wings, becoming a pilot in the air force in China. Pat Ryan, his buddy and mentor, was phased offstage to join the Navy, replaced by another father figure, Colonel Flip Corkin. With the change Terry Lee finally became the sole lead in the strip bearing his name, but the "Pirates," like Pat Ryan, also disappeared.

 

Caniff stepped up the wartime action, with Terry occasionally joining forces with his old nemesis, the Dragon Lady ("tough as a hash-heavy top sergeant"), as well as a new friend in the strip, the very hip, wise-cracking Hot-Shot Charlie.

 

Terry and the Pirates soared in popularity during the war years, thanks to Caniff's storytelling and his incredible attention to detail (once buying film reels from the Army Signal Corps to check on a detail about aircraft carriers). Voluntary informants, readers from around the world, aided the artist. Men and women in the armed services provided invaluable information on anything thing from logistics to military uniforms. Caniff returned the favor by designing countless logos and insignias, designing a large number of instruction manuals and posters, and winning numerous citations from the Navy, War, and Treasury Departments.

 

If Terry and the Pirates helped the war effort by informing and entertaining the civilians, Caniff's Male Call did wonders for the guys in uniform. The strip, which ran uncensored in service newspapers, was heavy on cheesecake and featured the voluptuous Miss Lace, a kind of volunteer Morale Officer, who did her best to cheer up the men, usually by dressing in very low-cut outfits.

 

The strip's popularity peaked during the war years. During that time Terry had been adapted to radio and comics, and in 1940 James W. Horne directed a movie serial version (in the 1950s there was also a Terry TV series). After the war ended Caniff ran into contractual problems with his syndicate and went over to King Features, with a hefty salary increase and the added bonus of owning whatever strip he created. On December 29, 1946, the last of Milton Caniff's Terry and the Pirates appeared. George Wundar inherited the strip, which would continue on (in some years inked by E.C. artist George Evans) for another 25 years, finally folding in 1973. In 1995 Tribune Media Services resurrected Terry, which was written by Michael Uslan and illustrated by Greg and Tim Hildebrandt, later replaced by comics veteran

Dan Spiegle.

 

Steve Canyon, Caniff's new strip, debuted on January 7, 1946, opening simultaneously in 125 papers throughout the country, a unique distinction for a new strip, but understandable given Caniff's reputation. Steve was a compulsive hero ("the kind of guy who doesn'tlike to see people kicked around"). As Caniff described him in a Time magazine interview, Canyon was intended to be a "sort of modern Kit Carson, the strong silent Gary Cooper plainsman type. He'llhave lots of gals, one at every port."

 

Canyon was to be, in Caniff's words, "a picaresque novel," like Cervantes' Don Quixote; a traveler moving from one adventure to the next, accompanied by a friend the hero can talk to (and talk to the reader). In this case, Sancho Panza turned out to be a scrappy oldster, Happy Easter. Caniff also decided to bring in another Terry figure, the teenage Reed Kimberly -- after all, if Steve ever settled down to married life, Caniff needn't abandon any boy-meets-girl plot riffs.

 

Canyon did meet a lot of women. Many of them, like the cold-blooded Copper Calhoun (a nasty version of Daddy Warbucks), Cheetah (a totally amoral bargirl who would steal Reed's heart and then cheerfully step on it), the hapless Summer Olson (hopelessly in love with Steve and always abused by Ms. Calhoun, her employer), and cousin Poteet Canyon (a teenage version of Happy Easter). "Ninety-five percent of the interest in any fiction is what happens to the women, not what happens to the men," Caniff believed.

 

Like many other comic strip adventurers, Steve Canyon went on to become a Cold Warrior with the advent of the nineteen fifties, reentering the air Force after the outbreak of the Korean war. Steve found time between adventures in various Third World hotspots to finally marry Summer Olson in 1970 and after the Vietnam war became entangled in a number of marital problems that eventually resulted in a separation.

 

The Vietnam war also caused a number of problems for the strip itself, as the mood of the many Americans was definitely not in tune with military adventures. And as newspapers around the country began to shrink the panel size of their strips to make room for all-important advertising, Caniff's strip, like most realistic strips, began losing its effectiveness. As the aging Caniff began experiencing health problems, he was forced to drop penciling chores, which were then handled by Dick Rockwell (nephew of illustrator Norman Rockwell) and concentrate on writing and inking it.

 

Although ill heath couldn't keep the artist from the drawing board, he finally succumbed to lung cancer in 1988. Steve Canyon survived him by several weeks, after 41 years of continuity. Caniff's awards, which included two Reubens for his two strips, were numerous but the last Steve Canyon, dated June 4, was a final, wonderful tribute: it was two panels, one drawn by the legendary war cartoonist Bill Mauldin, the other signed by 78 fellow artists of the field he loved. Milton Caniff will be long remembered.

Milton Arthur Paul Caniff (February 28, 1907-May 3, 1988) was an American cartoonist famous for the Terry and the Pirates and Steve Canyon comic strips.

 

Early life

 

Caniff was born in Hillsboro, Ohio. He was an Eagle Scout and a recipient of the Distinguished Eagle Scout Award from the Boy Scouts of America. Caniff had done some cartoons for local newspapers as a teenager, while studying at Stivers School for the Arts. Shortly after matriculating at the Ohio State University, from which he graduated in 1930, Caniff began a career in journalism by applying to the Columbus Dispatch. There he worked with the noted cartoonist William "Billy" Ireland until Caniff's position was eliminated.

 

While at Ohio State, Caniff joined the Sigma Chi Fraternity, and later provided illustrations for The Magazine of Sigma Chi and The Norman Shield (the fraternity's pledgeship/reference manual).

  

Cartoonist

 

In 1932, Caniff moved to New York City to accept an artist position in the Features Service of the Associated Press. He did general assignment art for several months, then inherited a panel cartoon called Mister Gilfeather in September 1932 when Al Capp left the feature. Caniff continued Gilfeather until the spring of 1933, when it was retired in favor of a generic comedy in a panel cartoon called The Gay Thirties, which he produced until he left AP in the fall of 1934. In July 1933, Caniff began an adventure fantasy strip, Dickie Dare, influenced by series such as Flash Gordon and Brick Bradford.[1] The eponymous central character was a youth who dreamed himself into adventures with such literary and legendary persons as Robin Hood, Robinson Crusoe and King Arthur. In the spring of 1934, Caniff changed the strip from fantasy to "reality" when Dickie no longer dreamed his adventures but experienced them as he traveled the world with a freelance writer, Dickie's adult mentor, "Dynamite Dan" Flynn.

 

In 1934, Caniff was hired by the New York Daily News to produce a new strip, Terry and the Pirates, the strip which made Caniff famous.[1] Like Dickie Dare, Terry began the strip as a boy who is traveling in China with an adult mentor and freelance writer, Pat Ryan. But over the years the title character aged and by World War II he was old enough to serve in the Army Air Force. During the twelve years that Caniff produced the strip, he introduced many fascinating characters, most of whom were "pirates" of one kind or another--Burma, a blonde with a mysterious possibly criminal past; Chopstick Joe, a Chinese petty criminal; Singh Singh, a warlord in the mountains of China; Judas, a smuggler; Sanjak, a lesbian; and then boon companions such as Hotshot Charlie, Terry's wing man during the War years; Connie and Big Stoop, a Chinese Jeff and Mutt (in stature) who followed Terry and Pat Ryan around the country; and April Kane, a young woman who was Terry's first love. But Caniff's most memorable creation was the Dragon Lady, a pirate queen; she was seemingly ruthless and calculating, but Caniff encouraged his readers to think she had romantic yearnings for Pat Ryan.

During the war, Caniff began a second strip, a special version of Terry and the Pirates without Terry but featuring the blonde bombshell, Burma. Caniff donated all of his work on this strip to the armed forces -- the strip was only available in military newspapers. After complaints from the Miami Herald about the military version of the strip being published by military newspapers in the Herald's circulation territory, the strip was renamed Male Call and given a new star, Miss Lace, a beautiful woman who lived near every military base on the planet and enjoyed the company of enlisted men, but not officers. Her function, Caniff often said, was to remind service men what they were fighting for, and while the situations in the strip brimmed with double entendre, Miss Lace was not, as far as she appeared in the strip, a loose woman, but she "knew the score." Far more so than civilian comic strips which portrayed military characters, Male Call was notable for its honest depiction of what the servicemen were up against: one strip showed Miss Lace dating a soldier on leave who had lost an arm; another strip had her escorting a blinded ex-serviceman. Caniff continued Male Call until seven months after V-J Day, ending it in March 1946.[2]

 

The year 1946 also saw the end of Caniff's association with Terry and the Pirates. While the strip was a major success, it was not owned by its creator but by its distributing syndicate, the Chicago Tribune-New York Daily News, a common practice with syndicated comics at the time. And when Caniff was offered the chance to own his own strip by Marshall Field, publisher of the Chicago Sun, the cartoonist left Terry to produce a strip for Field Enterprises. Caniff produced his last strip of Terry and the Pirates in December 1946 and introduced his new strip Steve Canyon in the Chicago Sun-Times the following month.[1] At the time, Caniff was one of only two or three syndicated cartoonists who owned their creations, and he attracted considerable publicity as a result of this circumstance.

  

Steve Canyon

 

Like his previous strip, Steve Canyon was an action strip with a pilot as its main character. Canyon was originally portrayed as a civilian pilot with his own one-airplane cargo airline, but he re-enlisted in the Air Force during the Korean War and remained in the Air Force for the remainder of the strip's run.

 

Milton Caniff's Steve Canyon, although not gaining the popularity of Terry and the Pirates, nevertheless enjoyed greater longevity.

 

While Steve Canyon never achieved the popularity that Terry and the Pirates had at its height as a World War II military adventure or the cult fame Terry generated over the years, it was a successful comic strip with a greater circulation than Terry ever had. A short-lived Steve Canyon television series was produced in 1958, marking the height of the strip's fame. The title character's dedication to the military (Steve Canyon was often termed the "unofficial spokesman" for the Air Force) produced a negative reaction among readers during the Vietnam War, and the strip dropped in circulation as a result. Caniff nonetheless continued to enjoy enormous regard in the profession and in newspapering, and he produced the strip until his death in 1988. The strip was continued for a couple months after he died, but it soon expired, too, in June 1988.

  

Recognition and awards

 

Caniff was one of the founders of the National Cartoonist Society and served two terms as its President, 1948 and 1949. He also received the Society's first Cartoonist of the Year Award in 1947, nominally for his new comic strip, Steve Canyon, but since the award covered work published in 1946, it embraced Terry and the Pirates as well. Caniff would be named Cartoonist of the Year again, receiving the accompanying trophy, the Reuben, in 1972 for 1971, again for Steve Canyon. He was also named to the Will Eisner Award Hall of Fame in 1988. He received the National Cartoonist Society Elzie Segar Award in 1971, the Award for Story Comic Strip in 1979 for Steve Canyon, the Gold Key Award (the Society's Hall of Fame) in 1981, and NCS has since named the Milton Caniff Lifetime Achievement Award in his honor.

 

Caniff died in New York City.

Along with Hal Foster and Alex Raymond, Caniff's style would have a tremendous influence on the artists who drew American comic books in the first half of the 20th century. Evidence of his influence can be clearly seen in the work of comic book artists such as Jack Kirby, Frank Robbins, Lee Elias, Bob Kane, Mike Sekowski, Dick Dillin,John Romita,Sr. and Johnny Craig to name just a mere handful.
