  • Publication Details

    Book, Hood Museum of Art, Dartmouth College, 2008
  • Description

    Black Womanhood examines an especially charged icon - the black female body - and contemporary artists’ interventions upon historical images of black women as exotic Others, erotic fantasies, and supermaternal Mammies. Peeling back layers of social, cultural, and political realities, Black Womanhood explores how historic icons inform contemporary artistic responses to the black female body through an examination of themes such as beauty, fertility and sexuality, maternity, and women’s roles and power in society.

George Inness And The Visionary Landscape

  • George Inness And The Visionary Landscape

  • Publication Details

    Book, 1st ed, National Academy of Design, 2003
  • Description

    The landscape painter George Inness (1825-1894) was one of the foremost American artists of his generation. During a trip to Italy in the early 1870s, Inness began to structure his landscapes around geometric forms, a development that may have reflected the Swedenborgian idea that the natural world corresponds to the spiritual world and that geometric forms possess spiritual identities. George Inness and the Visionary Landscape includes forty color reproductions of Inness’s most important paintings and presents both a chronological overview of Inness’s life and a more focused treatment of the artist’s main philosophical and religious preoccupations.
