ABC NO RIO

ABC NO RIO é um espaço cultural em Nova Iorque. História Em 30 de dezembro de 1979, vários artistas entraram em um edifício abandonado de dois andares, construído em 1916, na Rua Delancey em Lower Manhattan, que pertencia ao Município de Nova Iorque . A primeira ação foi uma exposição de arte em homenagem à Elizabeth Mangum, uma mulher negra de 35 anos que sido sido assassinada por um policial durante um despejo em Flatbush (Brooklyn - Nova Iorque), no início daquele ano, essa exposição continha críticas aos proprietários de imóveis de Nova Iorque e pretendia expressar solidariedade com as pessoas oprimidas. No dia 2 de janeiro, a Prefeitura retomou o imóvel e ofereceu aos artistas outros imóveis onde eles poderiam realizar suas atividades. No entanto, os artistas, após avaliar os imóveis oferecidos, recusaram todas as ofertas. Em meados de janeiro, aceitaram a oferta de outro imóvel também na Rua Delancey, a 50 metros do imóvel originalmente ocupado. Em março, eles mudaram para a Rua Rivington, onde adotaram o nome de "ABC NO RIO", a inspiração para o nome veio de uma placa que tinha umas letras apagadas, na qual estava inicialmente escrito: "ABOGADO NOTARIO". Em 1997, após diversas tentativas de remover o grupo do local, a Prefeitura de Nova Iorque aceitou vender o prédio ao grupos por 1 dólar, com a condição de que fossem feitas reformas no local no valor de 100.000 dólares em um prazo determinado. Os interessados passaram a promover campanhas de arrecadação de recursos, que no entanto não conseguiam levantar o suficiente no prazo concedido, então eram concedidos novos prazos nos quais eram exigidos maiores montantes. Em outubro de 2004, já haviam sido arrecadados 300.000 dólares, principalmente através de pequenas doações, e teve início a etapa final do processo de transferência do edifício, que foi concluída em junho de 2006. Em junho de 2009, a Prefeitura de Nova Iorque concedeu um financiamento de 1.650.000,00 para que o edifício fossem completamente reconstruído. Características No local ocorreram diversas apresentações de bandas de punk-rock. A cultura do local teve um caráter anti-homofóbico, anti-racista e feminista. A tomada de decisões importantes era feita com base no sistema de consenso modificado, as principais decisões exigiam aprovação unânime em reuniões mensais, enquanto que decisões administrativas rotineiras podiam ser tomadas por representantes eleitos. Outra característica do lugar era a solidariedade com os sem-teto do bairro.

A Photographer's Gallery

A Photographer's Gallery (March 1955 – 1957), 48 West 85th Street, on the Upper West Side of Manhattan in New York City, founded and opened by Roy DeCarava, was an early effort to gain recognition for photography as an art form. It exhibited art photography intended for walls in homes, and offices, along with paintings. Exhibitions Exhibitions at A Photographer's Gallery lasted four to six weeks, unusual at the time. Roy DeCarava believed that artists deserved an opportunity to have their work interact with as broad an audience as possible. To that end, he was committed to showing exhibitions in an environment that was respectful to the artists and thus had a dedicated, clean wall gallery space. There were a number of one-man exhibitions, but most of the time the gallery featured group shows, giving both new and more established photographers the opportunity to show, and to interact with, others in the exhibition process. Photographers Some of the photographers who were exhibited at A Photographer's Gallery, in addition to Roy DeCarava, were: Berenice Abbott, Hugh Bell, Hal Berg, Ruth Bernhard, Lou Bernstein, Harry Callahan, Van Deren Coke, Rufus Graham, Sid Grossman, Scott Hyde, Raymond Jacobs, Art Kane, Harry Lapow, Leon Levenstein, Ralph Eugene Meatyard (whose national career was established by his exhibition at the gallery), Jay Maisel, Lisette Model, David Vestal, Dan Weiner, Minor White, and Tad Yamashiro. There were other participating photographers, but the guest book that contained all exhibition invitations (and signatures of guests) was recently lost. Invitations to the exhibitions were usually designed by the photographer being exhibited. However, Roy DeCarava designed several invitations, since he had an extensive graphic arts background. The gallery The gallery was housed in a traditional New York City brownstone building on the ground level, and had its own entrance. This was an apartment that DeCarava and his then wife, Anne, converted utilizing more than 500 square feet (46 m2) of white walls, with a tall free-standing room divider, that added considerably more gallery wall space. This arrangement enabled him to support the gallery inasmuch as sales were slight and prints sold for very little. However, a seasonal group show designed to encourage the purchase of signed, and sometimes numbered, photographic prints for Christmas gifts was exceptionally successful. Roy DeCarava always believed that art should be available and affordable to all people and so his commissions were kept low, generally 10% or less of the sale price. He continued exhibiting his own work during that period while also holding a 9 to 5 job in an ad agency. The gallery closed in June 1957 after the marriage of DeCarava to Anne Strasser ended in divorce. She later remarried and became Anne Kurakin. Roy DeCarava went on to have a world-renowned career as an artist References

Abingdon Square Park

Abingdon Square Park is located in the New York City borough of Manhattan in Greenwich Village. The park is bordered by Eighth Avenue, Bank Street, Hudson Street and West 12th Street. Abingdon Square Park is one of New York City's oldest parks, and at 0.25 acres (1,000 m2), one of it smallest. It is maintained by the Abingdon Square Conservancy, a community-based park association, in cooperation with the New York City Department of Parks and Recreation. History New York City acquired the land on which the park resides on April 22, 1831, and it was enclosed with a cast-iron fence in 1836. In the 1880s, an effort was initiated by Mayor Abram Stevens Hewitt to expand public access to parks. Architect Calvert Vaux was part of a group that created a new design for Abingdon Square. The square was part of a 300-acre (1.2 km2) estate purchased by Sir Peter Warren in 1740. Abingdon Square was named for a prominent eighteenth-century area resident, Charlotte Warren, who married Englishman Willoughby Bertie, the 4th Earl of Abingdon and received the land as a wedding gift from her father. Although most explicitly British place names in Manhattan were altered after the Revolutionary War, Abingdon Square retained its name due to the well-known patriotic sympathies of Charlotte and the Earl. In 2005, the Greenwich Village Society for Historic Preservation recognized the park's then-recent renovation with a Village Award. On August 3, 2009, a small garden was established inside the park as a memorial to Adrienne Shelly, an actress and film producer who was slain in her office located in 15 Abingdon Square. Conservancy Abingdon Square Conservancy is a non-profit public charity exempt from federal income tax under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. The Conservancy's mission is to enhance and maintain the Square as a scenic and historic landmark. The Conservancy is solely dependent on private donations for its operations and receives no public funding. The Conservancy employs a horticulturalist to design and maintain plantings, provide gardening services, liaise with the City, and supervise maintenance in the park. A groundskeeper is employed to keep the Square clean. The Square is maintained in cooperation with the New York City Parks and Recreation Department, which collects trash and locks and unlocks the gates. Annual Conservancy events include a spring tulip display, Tulip Celebration (a member appreciation cocktail party), a carved Pumpkin Patch on Halloween night and a winter holiday decoration and light display. Transportation The M11, M12 and M14A SBS bus lines terminate at Abingdon Square. The New York City Subway's 14th Street/Eighth Avenue station is also nearby.

Abingdon Square foi nomeado em homenagem a Charlotte Warren uma residente local do século XVIII, que se casou com o inglês Willoughby Bertie, o quarto conde de Abingdon e recebeu a terra como um presente de casamento de seu pai. Embora a maioria dos nomes do lugar são de origem britânica, em Manhattan foram alteradas após a Guerra Revolucionária. A Abingdon Square Park manteve o seu nome devido à simpatias por Charlotte e por Earl. Em 1921, o escultor Philip Martiny, criou o Abingdon Square Memorial, que foi dedicado aos soldados de Greenwich Village que estiveram na Primeira Guerra Mundial, que foi inaugurado diante de uma multidão de 20 mil pessoas. Atualidade O parque é mantido pela Praça Abingdon Alliance, uma comunidade baseada em parques de associação, em cooperação com o New York City Department of Parks and Recreation e com a comunidade local. Além de ser usado como um espaço de lazer, também são desenvolvidas atividades que visam a proteção do meio ambiente, como o plantio de árvores. Também são realizadas feiras de alimentos, nos finais de semana, organizada pelos comerciantes locais e pelo New York City Department of Parks and Recreation. Em 2002, a comunidade votou duas vezes a favor de um projeto que faria uma renovação no parque, no valor de 760 000 00 dólares. Em 3 de agosto de 2009, um pequeno jardim foi criado em homengem a Adrienne Shelly, uma atriz e produtora de cinema que foi morta em seu escritório, localizado na 15 Abingdon Square.

Американ Радиатор-билдинг

Американ радиатор-билдинг, Американ-редиэйтор-билдинг (англ. American Radiator Building) — известный 23-этажный небоскрёб с многоярусной золоченой башней, расположенный по адресу Западная 40-я улица, дом 40, в Мидтауне, Манхэттен, Нью-Йорк, напротив Брайант-парка. Переименован в Американ стэндард-билдинг (англ. American Standard Building). Высота — 103 м (338 фута). Спроектирован архитекторами Рэймондом Худом и Жаком-Андре Фуиу. Сооружен в 1924 году для American Radiator Company, за пять лет до ее слияния со Standard Sanitary Manufacturing Company, в результате чего была образована American Radiator and Standard Sanitary Corporation, более известная как American Standard — крупный производитель сантехники. История. Описание Структурная форма здания основана на незавершенном конкурсном проекте Элиэля Сааринена Трибьюн-тауэр, который дополнен необычным использованием цвета. В проекте здания архитекторы соединили элементы готического стиля и ар-деко. Черный кирпич на фасаде здания (символизирующий уголь) был выбран, чтобы дать ощущение прочности и придать зданию массивный вид. Другие части фасада были выполнены из позолоченного кирпича (символизирующими огонь), а вход был украшен мрамором и черными зеркалами. Худ использовали для украшения скульптуры и орнаменты работы Рене Пола Шамбеллана, который часто с ними сотрудничал. В 1988 году компания-преемник American Standard продала небоскреб японской фирме. В 1998 году здание было продано Филиппу Пилевски за 150 миллионов долларов. Три года спустя офисное здание было преобразовано в отель (англ. Bryant Park Hotel) со 130 номерами и театром. Здание занесено в Национальный реестр исторических мест США. Наличие статуса архитектурного памятника требовало особого подхода к реновации. Часть предлагаемых изменений, например, большие окна комнаты для гостей, не были согласованы властями и воплощены. Здание изображено на известной картине Джорджии О’Киф — Radiator Building — Night, New York. Примечания Литература Джонс У. Американ Радиатор-билдинг // Как читать Нью-Йорк.
