Ensor article and more!

From your colleague Kathleen Steiger,

“This ArtDaily Newsletter has a great article on James Ensor and an upcoming exhibit featuring the other copy of Intregue as well as a 6 minute video on conserving a large Japanese scroll at the MFA.  Both are excellent and worth the time it takes to read and view.”

Euro-American Art, readings for Nov. 9th class

Access to PDF of American Paradise: The World of the Hudson River School by Avery, Kevin J., Oswaldo Rodriguez Roque, John K. Howat, Doreen Bolger Burke, and Catherine Hoover Voorsanger (1987):

American Paradise: The World of the Hudson River School

Please click on “Read Online” to bring up a copy on your computer OR click the “Download” button, to download a PDF for your use (the PDF is too large for me to post on the IPE site). For class, read the article in this catalog titled “The Exaltation of American Landscape Painting” by Oswaldo Rodriguez Roque, pp. 21-48.

Also, please review the attached document, with links to a series of five short illustrated essays on the Metropolitan Museum site:

Book Recommendation on Visual Intelligence

From your colleague Sara Wagner, a book recommendation:

Visual Intelligence     Sharpen Your Perception, Change Your Life     By Amy E. Herman

I mentioned this book after Jane Oden Stull talked to our class about touring with teens.  She mentioned the author who trains people (NYC Police, FBI, etc) to perceive and communicate better through viewing art.  She is an art historian who teaches others to hone their “visual intelligence,” a set of skills we all possess but few of us know how to use effectively.
