Burchfield Penney Art Center

The Burchfield Penney Art Center, or just the Burchfield Penney, is an arts and educational institution part of Buffalo State University, located adjacent to the main campus in Buffalo, New York, United States. Dedicated to the art and vision of American painter Charles E. Burchfield, it was founded in 1966 as the Charles E. Burchfield Center. The center features a museum, library, and activity space for the arts. It maintains the world's largest collection of Burchfield's work, as well as many other distinguished artists of Buffalo, Niagara and Western New York. It is engaged with every aspect of Buffalo and the region's rich cultural activity. History Originally named the Charles E. Burchfield Center, the museum held its official opening ceremonies on 9 December 1966 in Rockwell Hall, with Burchfield himself in attendance. Burchfield died just a month and a day after the museum's inauguration. The museum moved to a new home located on 4.9 acres (20,000 m2) of land at the corner of Elmwood Avenue and Rockwell Road in Buffalo, New York in November 2008. The Burchfield Penney opened in its new location on November 22, 2008, with a 31-hour non-stop grand opening event. The new 84,000-square-foot (7,800 m2) museum is designed by Gwathmey Siegel & Associates Architects. Today, one of the Burchfield Penney's main goals is to be unique and inviting to the public. Its "Front Yard" exhibit features three tall steel projectors which project constantly-changing artwork onto the exterior of the building. According to Buffalo News critic Colin Dabkowski, "The Front Yard thwarts immediate judgement because it is always in a state of becoming something else." (para. 16). The museum continually connects to educational institutions, specifically Buffalo State University. Collection The museum's permanent collection spans the late 19th century through today. The collection includes the world's largest collection of Burchfield's works, as well as a large archive of his drawings, notes and journals. Although the museum focuses on the work of Burchfield, it is the only museum dedicated completely to the art and artists of Buffalo, and features more than 18 exhibitions each year. Other components of the collection range from traditional mid-nineteenth century work to contemporary media arts. Notable artists in the collection also include Claire Shuttleworth, Virginia Cuthbert, Charles Cary Rumsey, Steina Vasulka, Paul Sharits, Ruth Erb Hoffman, and many others. It also includes work by Hallwalls founders: Charles Clough, Robert Longo, Diane Bertolo, Nancy Dwyer, Cindy Sherman, and Michael Zwack. The collection also includes one of the world's largest collections of the documentary photographer Milton Rogovin, paintings and prints by J.J. Lankes (who was a native of Buffalo), and work by Arts and Craft artisans from Roycroft. The center has also hosted screenings of experimental film and video works by artists connected to Buffalo media study, including Tony Conrad, Steina and Woody Vasulka, James Blue, Paul Sharits, and Hollis Frampton.

Parrish Art Museum

Das Parrish Art Museum ist ein Kunstmuseum in Water Mill, New York, östlich von New York City auf Long Island. Geschichte des Museums Die Grundlagen des heutigen Museums wurden im Jahre 1897 geschaffen, als der Quaker und erfolgreiche Anwalt Samuel Longstreth Parrish ein Gebäude durch den Architekten Grosvenor Atterbury für seine Sammlungen bauen ließ, die aus Gemälden der Renaissance Italiens und Kopien von Skulpturen der Antike und der Renaissance bestanden. Das Museum entstand auf Long Island im Southampton Village östlich der Stadtgrenzen New Yorks. Nach Erweiterungen des Museums in den Jahren 1902 und 1913 wurden die Sammlung und die Gebäude nach Parrishs Tod der Gemeinde Southampton Village vermacht. Durch weitere Vermächtnisse gelangten seit den 1950er Jahren wichtige Werke US-amerikanischer Maler wie William Merritt Chase und Fairfield Porter in den Besitz des Museums. Die Neuerwerbungen, darunter auch Werke von Künstlern der New York School, machten einen Neubau des Museums notwendig, der 2012 im Nachbarort Water Mill der Öffentlichkeit übergeben wurde. Der Neubau Da eine Erweiterung am alten Standort in Southampton nicht möglich war, erwarb das Museum 2005 in etwa 4 km Entfernung vom alten Standort die Grundstücke einer ehemaligen Baumschule und eines Weingutes und schrieb den Neubau aus. Unter den 65 Teilnehmern des Wettbewerbs konnte sich der Entwurf des Schweizer Architekturbüros Herzog & de Meuron durchsetzen. Infolge der Finanzkrise der Jahre 2007 und 2008 mussten die Pläne der Architekten für den Neubau gekürzt werden. Der seit November 2012 genutzte Neubau erinnert in seiner Form an eine große Scheune. Er beherbergt im Westen die Empfangsräume einschließlich Museumsladens und Museumscafés, die Ausstellungsräume in zwei parallelen Abschnitten in der Mitte und die Verwaltung im Osten. Die durch Tageslicht beleuchteten Ausstellungsräume umfassen ca. 700 m² Ausstellungsfläche für die Dauerausstellung und ca. 420 m² Fläche für Wechselausstellungen. Sammlungen Das Museum enthält die größte öffentliche Sammlung von Werken von William Merritt Chase, ein großes Archiv zum Werk und Wirken des Künstlers. Die Erben Fairfield Porters überließen der Sammlung 250 Arbeiten. Weitere Höhepunkte der Sammlungen bilden Werke von Ralph Albert Blakelock, James McNeill Whistler, William Glackens und Arthur B. Davies. Das Museum plant, weitere Werke der Vertreter des Abstrakten Expressionismus, wie zum Beispiel von Alice Aycock, zu erwerben. Ausstellungen 2012: Malcolm Morley: Painting, Paper, Process 2013: Alice Aycock Drawings: Some Stories Are Worth Repeating, Katalog. Weblinks Offizielle Website (en.) Einzelnachweise

Художественный музей Пэрриша

Художественный музей Пэрриша (англ. Parrish Art Museum) — художественный музей в США, расположенный в городке Уотер Милл, округ Саффолк, штат Нью-Йорк. В музее широко представлены работы художников арт-колоний South Shore и North Shore, расположенных на Лонг-Айленде. C 2008 года главой музея является Terrie Sultan, сменившая на этом посту Trudy Kramer, проработавшего директором 26 лет. История Музей был основан в 1897 году Самуилом Пэрришем (англ. Samuel Longstreth Parrish), успешным адвокатом и квакером, который начал коллекционировать произведения искусства в начале 1880-х годов, основавший в собственном. Здание музея было спроектировано архитектором Grosvenor Atterbury и построено в 1897 году в местечке Саутгемптон в округе Саффолк, штат Нью-Йорк. Одной из причин для создания музея стало открытие художником Уильямом Чейзом рядом расположенной летней школы в Шиннекок Хиллс. Здание музея расширялось дважды — в 1902 и 1913 годах. После смерти Пэрриша в 1932 году, здание и коллекция были завещаны Саутгемптону, но без трудов хозяина музей перестал процветать. Так было до 1950-х годов, когда был создан Совет попечителей, во главе которого стала Rebecca Bolling Littlejohn. Признавая важность этого культурного заведения, она начала кампанию по укреплению фондов музея, который стал возрождаться. После её смерти музей насчитывал более 300 художественных работ. В 1981 году в него были добавлены почти 200 произведений искусства местного художника Fairfield Porter (1907—1975), подаренные его женой Анной в память о муже. Долгое время многие работы музея находились в хранилище, так как не хватало выставочных площадей. В 2000 году музей приобрел здание библиотеки Rogers Memorial Library, которая переехала в другое место. На новое здание было потрачено $1,1 млн долларов из более чем $3 миллионов, пожертвованных Carroll Petrie. Однако эти здания всё равно были малы для музейной коллекции. В 2012 году экспонаты музей были перенесены из Саутгемптона в местечко Уотер Милл этого же округа в новое оригинальное здание, спроектированное швейцарским архитектурным бюро Херцог и де Мёрон. Выставочная площадь музея — более 1000 м², при общей площади постройки более 3000 м². В настоящее время коллекция музея включает более чем 3000 произведений искусства от XIX века до современности — американских художников и скульпторов. Примечания Ссылки Официальный сайт (англ.)

Bush-Lyon Homestead

Bush-Lyon Homestead is a historic home located at Port Chester, Westchester County, New York. The earliest part was built about 1720. It is a 1+1⁄2-story, five-by-two-bay, frame residence faced in shingles and clapboards. It has a center stone chimney. The rear kitchen wing and 1-story north wing were added about 1800 and the house given its saltbox configuration. In the mid-19th century, the present porch was added with its Doric order piers and a 1-story, gable-roofed wing added. Also on the property are a carriage house, former slave quarters, and a storage building/corn crib. The property was purchased by the village in 1925 from the Bush estate. One of the reasons for the purchase was its association with Revolutionary War hero Israel Putnam: the house served as headquarters for General Putnam in 1777–1778. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1982. History of the Homestead : The home may have been built by John Lyon II, born 1693, who had considerable farm land that included the area now called Lyon Park. There is considerable evidence that the house existed before the marriage of his daughter Ruth Lyon to Abraham Bush, who made the house their homestead. It may have been occupied by one or more of John Lyon II's sons. John Lyon II's children were: John Lyon (1713-1790); Roger Lyon (1715-1797); Elizabeth (Lyon) Treadwell (1718-1772); James Lyon (1720-1804); Ruth Lyon (1724-1802). Ruth Lyon and Abraham Bush were married c.1744. They had seven children, all born at the house between 1747 and 1766. Their son Gilbert Bush (1753-1831) married Sabrina Seymour and had one daughter Mary Emeline Bush (born about 1799, died 1893), who inherited the house. Emeline married Gershom Bulkley of Port Chester, from a family of sea merchants in the area. They had seven children born in the house, all of whom pre-deceased Mary Emeline. Upon her death, questions arose as to the ownership and preservation of the home, and after a series of court hearings involving distance relatives, the house and property were purchased by the Village of Port Chester in 1925 and preserved as a park. The Port Chester Historical Society maintains its headquarters at the homestead and welcomes any visitors to tour the homestead when the homestead is open to the public.

Bush Terminal

Bush Terminal - Industry City är ett stort system av bryggor, fartygsdockor, lagerlokaler, fabriker och godsbangårdar i Greenwood Heights i västra Brooklyn i New York. Området var som mest cirka 200 acres (cirka 81 hektar) stort och var det första i sitt slag i New York. Bland industriområden av den kategori som har många hyresgäster och verksamheter, har Bush Terminal varit USA:s största. Industriområdet har fått sitt namn efter dess grundare Irving T. Bush, vars familj härstammar från Jan Bosch, en man från Nederländerna som immigrerade till New Amsterdam (nuvarande New York) 1662. Bush Terminal har alltså ingen koppling till den politiska släkten Bush. Under såväl första som andra världskriget användes Bush Terminal för militära ändamål. Ett mer sentida namn på området är Industry City. Referenser Den här artikeln är helt eller delvis baserad på material från engelskspråkiga Wikipedia, tidigare version.
