Peter Blume: The Rock (1948)
[ send me this paper ]
(5 pp) It has been suggested that Peter Blume was
one of the first Americans to favor surrealism, in
his mature work. He has also been labeled a
"magic realist," which has a nice ring to it but
doesn't really tell us much. In this discussion we
will look at his 1948 painting, "The Rock," a
reaction both against the bombing of Hiroshima,
and a tribute to the human's tenacity to survive
man-made disaster.
Bibliography lists 7 sources plus 1 visual

Photographer Lewis Hine
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 3 page paper discussing the photography and the social issues addressed by Lewis Hine. Photographer Lewis Wickes Hine (1874-1940) was not only a photographer who achieved a certain artistry within his photographs but also addressed important social issues regarding humanity in the first half of the 20th century. Through his insightful images of the immigrants on Ellis Island at the turn of the century, the child laborers across the country, the devastating human aspects of World War I and the building of the Empire State Building during the Great Depression, Hine managed to open a nation’s eyes to the humanist concerns important within an industrial society which values its luxury but often has little regard for the human price to be paid in the production of such luxury.

Resistance to “Progress”
[ send me this paper ]
An 8 page paper discussing how resistance influences change. Two authors, Kenneth Frampton and Karsten Harries, discuss both change and the lack of change in architecture. Each finds reasons for resistance to change over time; Frampton attributes that resistance to regionalism. Where regionalism is strong (such as in New England), there are many restrictions, both written and unwritten. Where regionalism is not as strong (1920s California, as example), individuals are more willing to take risks with architecture. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
