The Meadows Foundation (Dallas)

The Meadows Foundation is located at 3003 Swiss Avenue in the Wilson Historic District in Dallas, TX., and was incorporated as a private philanthropic institution in 1948 by Virginia and Algur H. Meadows. The purpose of the foundation is "to benefit the people of Texas", and their mission is "to assist the people and institutions of Texas improve the quality and circumstances of life for themselves and future generations." The foundation has distributed "more than $1.1 billion in grants and direct charitable expenditures to more than 2,000 Texas institutions and agencies." History In the 1930s, Algur Meadows built General American Oil Company of Texas, a Delaware company headquartered in Dallas, into one of the nation's largest independent oil and gas production companies. The company had amassed refineries, oil fields, and gas plants across the nation before it sold to Phillips Petroleum Company in 1983. Al Meadows survived the Great Depression, and became a wealthy oilman through his investments. He and Virginia were quite generous with their wealth, and during their lifetime, had donated to many charitable causes. They wanted to continue the gift of giving in perpetuity, and in 1948, chartered the Meadows Foundation to be operated "under the guidance and direction of family members and trusted advisors.".

Bygones (sculpture)

Bygones is an abstract, geometric sculpture created by Mark di Suvero in 1976, and installed at the Menil Collection in Houston in 1987. It consists of two Cor-ten steel girders and a rectangular steel plate. The girders intersect at almost a 90-degree angle and the structure is stabilized by the base. History Bygones was created in 1976, shortly after a turbulent period in di Suvero's career. Having protested the Vietnam War and been arrested twice, di Suvero left the United States in 1971 in self-imposed exile, living and working in Europe until the war's end in 1975. Upon returning, he opened a studio in Petaluma, California and in late 1975 was the subject of an important retrospective at the Whitney Museum of American Art. Bygones was among the first works he created after this return, made in Grand Rapids, Michigan, alongside Motu Viget and parts of Pre Natal Memories, before being temporarily installed near his Petaluma studio. Around 1978, Dominique de Menil acquired the sculpture for what would become the Menil Collection. Her family's connection to di Suvero had been established during this same period: her son François co-produced, with art historian Barbara Rose, the documentary North Star: Mark di Suvero (1977), which followed di Suvero from his final years of exile through his return to New York. It was during the making of this film that François first met the artist. Dominique de Menil would later write, in a 1984 letter, that Bygones was "one of the great sculptures of its time". In 1985, the sculpture was loaned to the Storm King Art Center in New York for a major exhibition of di Suvero's work, where it was installed on a sloping hill. In 1987, it was permanently installed at the newly opened Menil Collection in Houston. Materials and restoration Cor-ten develops a velvety, rust-colored patina when exposed to alternating humid and dry weather. Houston's high humidity makes maintenance particularly important for Bygones and other artwork made of Cor-ten, because the material tends to rust too much and decay on the inside. In addition to this concern, over the decades the sculpture's concrete pads were slowly sinking into the clay-rich soil, which allowed the Cor-ten to be submerged in rainwater after storms. In 2015, Bygones underwent an extensive conservation treatment. It was entirely dismantled, cleaned, given a coating to protect it, repaired, and installed on new foundations. This was a large undertaking that involved teams of metal-workers, concrete and landscaping experts, engineers, conservation scientists, and radiographers.

Kiest Park

Kiest Park is a 263-acre (106 ha) park in southern Dallas, Texas, United States, established in 1931 by Edwin John Kiest, publisher of the Dallas Times Herald and a member of the Dallas Park Board in the 1930s who donated the land for the park. Named in memory of Kiest's late wife, artist Elizabeth Patterson Kiest, it is the largest City of Dallas Park in Oak Cliff and features hike-and-bike trails, tennis courts, baseball diamonds, playgrounds, picnic tables and several Works Progress Administration-era structures, including stone gates at three entrances to the park, a stone picnic shelter and a stone field house. The WPA also built a formal garden at the heart of Kiest Park. A pergola was built at the head of the garden in 1934 with WPA funds but fell into ruin and was cleared away. The nonprofit organization Friends of Oak Cliff Parks restored the historic garden and the City of Dallas rebuilt the pergola in 2014 based on the original plans, using $2 million in bond funds. In 2017, the nonprofit Texas Recreation and Park Society named Kiest Park a Lone Star Legacy Park, which marks it as “a park that holds special prominence in the local community and the State of Texas.” The same year, the park became the site of Spanish artist Casto Solano's sculpture honoring Oak Cliff natives Stevie Ray Vaughan and Jimmie Vaughan. The Vaughan family home was located at 2557 Glenfield Avenue, one-half mile away. Boundaries and accessibility The park is bounded by Perryton Dr to the north, Rugged Dr to the east, W Kiest Blvd to the south and S Hampton Rd to the west. It is connected by trail to Elmwood Parkway to the north, and plans exist to extend that trail to Tyler/Vernon_station through Elmwood, Dallas. References

Bosc Nacional Angelina

El Bosc Nacional Angelina (Angelina National Forest), localitzat a l'est de Texas (Estats Units), es compon principalment del pi melis (Pinus palustris), i el pi de fulles curtes (Pinus echinata) i el Pinus taeda. Hi ha dues àrees salvatges dins dels límits del bosc que envolta l'embassament Sam Rayburn. L'Angelina ofereix un hàbitat per al picot d'escarapel·la vermella que està en perill d'extinció i un hàbitat d'hivernada per al pigarg americà. Gestió El bosc es gestiona conjuntament amb altres boscos nacionals situats a Texas, incloent Davy Crockett, Sabine, Sam Houston, així com les Praderies Nacionals Caddo i Lyndon Baines Johnson al nord-est de Texas, i el Bosc Experimental Stephen F. Austin al nord de Lufkin. La seva seu (supervisor's office) es localitza a Lufkin mentre l'oficina de guardaboscos que serveix el Bosc Nacional Angelina es troba a Zavalla. Àrees salvatges Upland Island. El 1930, fusters havien talat gairebé tots el pins amb valor comercial, deixant només unes petites "illes" d'arbres immadurs. Però una espessa capa de pins frondosos de segon creixement ara omple aquesta àrea salvatge. Upland Island pot ser el terreny més interessant dins del boscos nacional situats a Texas, amb flora que inclou trampes de gerro, azalees silvestres i pogònies rosa (Pogonia ophioglossoides), un membre de la família de orquídies. Turkey Hill. Els visitants al bosc potser anticipen que galls dindi corrin pels turons de Turkey Hill, però han de conformar-se amb cérvols, serps i picades ocasionals d'insectes. Un espès bosc amb arbres de fusta dura i pins cobreix aquests suaus turons, així com els pendents més pronunciats cap al nord i l'est. El cim de Turkey Hill domina el racó sud-est de l'àrea salvatge, aconseguint una altitud de 91 metres. Vegeu també Llista de boscos nacionals dels Estats Units Referències
Angelina National Forest

Der Angelina National Forest ist ein im östlichen Texas gelegener National Forest. Mit einer Fläche von 619,9 km² ist es das kleinste der vier Bundeswälder in Texas. Wie alle National Forests ist er im Bundesbesitz und wird intensiv forstwirtschaftlich genutzt. Innerhalb des Wirtschaftswaldes gibt es diverse Freizeit- und Erholungsangebote. So gibt es vielfältige Wander- und Campingmöglichkeiten. Auf dem Stausee der Sam-Rayburn-Talsperre, an den das Gebiet grenzt, können zudem verschiedenste Wassersportaktivitäten ausgeübt werden. Flora und Fauna Das Gebiet zeichnet sich durch milde Sommer und Winter aus. Prägende Baumart des Waldes sind verschiedene Kiefernarten. Während im nördlichen Teil Fichtenkiefer und Weihrauch-Kiefer dominieren, kommen im südlichen Waldgebiet hauptsächlich Sumpf-Kiefern vor. Im Wald kommen über hundert Tierarten vor. Er bietet so unter anderem dem bedrohten Kokardenspecht eine Heimat. Die größte dort heimische Säugetierart ist der Weißwedelhirsch. Wilderness Areas Zum Angelina National Forest gehören zwei Totalreservate, die als Wilderness Area gewidmet sind: Turkey Hill Wilderness Upland Island Wilderness Geschichte Archäologische Funde belegen die erste menschliche Besiedlung des Gebietes auf ca. 6.000 Jahre vor Christus. Die Ausgrabungen wurden vom U.S. Forest Service durchgeführt, bevor die Sam-Rayburn-Talsperre erbaut wurde. Im Jahr 1936 wurde die Verwaltung der Bundeswälder in Texas durch National Forests neu geordnet. Zusammen mit dem Angelina National Forest wurden auch die drei anderen texanischen National Forests, der Davy Crockett National Forests, der Sam Houston National Forests und der Sabine National Forests eingerichtet.

El bosque nacional de Angelina (del inglés: Angelina National Forest) es un área protegida de Estados Unidos, uno de los cuatro bosque nacionales situados en el estado de Texas. Los 619,9 km² del bosque nacional de Angelina se encuentran en el este de Texas en algunas partes de los condados San Agustín, Angelina, Jasper y Nacogdoches.​ Se gestionan junto con los otros tres bosques nacionales en Texas (Davy Crockett, Sabine, y Sam Houston) por las oficinas del Servicio Forestal en Lufkin, Texas. Hay oficinas de distrito locales ubicados en Zavalla. El bosque se encuentra en la cuenca del río Neches y en las orillas norte y sur del reservorio Sam Rayburn. El bosque recibe su denominación por el condado de Angelina, y este a su vez fue llamado así debido a una indígena que en la época de los colonizadores españoles fue nombrada así por estos.

Sabine National Forest

Der Sabine National Forest ist ein US-amerikanischer National Forest, der im Osten des Bundesstaates Texas nahe an der Grenze zu Louisiana gelegen ist und ein Gebiet von mehr als 1608 Quadratkilometern umfasst. Er liegt in fünf Countys: Sabine County, Shelby County, San Augustine County, Newton County und Jasper County. Die nächstgelegenen Orte im Westen sind die texanischen Städte Hemphill, San Augustine und Shelbyville, im Osten die Städte Many, Zwolle und Converse in Louisiana. Der Forst wird zusammen mit den drei Nationalforsts Angelina National Forest, Davy Crockett National Forest und Sam Houston National Forest sowie den beiden Grünlandgebieten Caddo National Grassland und Lyndon B. Johnson National Grassland verwaltet. Der Forst wurde am 13. Oktober 1936 gegründet. Geschichte Die Artenvielfalt und naturräumliche Gestaltung des heutigen Nationalforsts geschah zum Teil schon vor über 10.000 Jahren. Die ersten Bewohner waren nomadische Jäger. Als die ersten Europäer das Land im späten 16. Jahrhundert erkundeten, trafen sie auf von der Landwirtschaft abhängige Bewohner, die große Dörfer besaßen und deren Leben von religiösen und sozialen Ritualen und Richtlinien geprägt war. Versuche der Spanier im 17. und 18. Jahrhundert, sich im Osten Texas’ niederzulassen, scheiterten regelmäßig an Auseinandersetzungen mit Ureinwohnern. Zu Beginn des 19. Jahrhunderts bestand von den ehemals über zwei Dutzend Indianerstämmen lediglich einer noch. Im späten 19. Jahrhundert entdeckten Bauholzproduzenten das Areal für sich und nutzten die alten und weitläufigen Baumbestände für ihre Produktionen. Durch den baldigen Ausbau des Eisenbahnnetzes wurde eine Grundlage geschaffen, die Holzressourcen des Gebietes weiträumig abzubauen. Als große Teile dieser profitablen Ressourcen erschöpft waren, zogen die Unternehmer weiter. Heute sind im Nationalforst noch alte Spuren der Eisenbahntrasse zu finden. 1934 wurden in Texas Gesetze geschaffen, um bereits dezimierte Naturbestände fortan vor weiterer Ausnutzung zu schützen. Ab 1935 wurden große Areale, zu denen heute auch der Sabine National Forest sowie die anderen parallel verwalteten Forste gehören, erworben und geschützt. Neben einem Feuer- und Erosionsschutz wurden auch Bestände gesichert und neue Bäume gepflanzt. Bis heute hat sich ein weitläufiger Sekundärwald entwickelt. Freizeit Der Nationalforst bietet eine Vielfalt an Freizeitmöglichkeiten. Dazu gehören Camping, Angeln, Reiten und Klettern. Darüber hinaus besteht ein 45 Kilometer langes Netz aus Wanderwegen. Ein mehr als 260 Quadratkilometer großes Wildtier-Areal ist zur Jagd geöffnet. Über 120 Quadratkilometer sind als Totalreservat von jeglichen menschlichen Eingriffen geschützt.
