# Nikolaos Koutouzis

Nikolaos Koutouzis, or Koutousis (Greek: Νικόλαος Κουτούζης; 1741 – 1813) was a Greek painter, poet and priest. He was part of the Heptanese School, but also a member of the Modern Greek Enlightenment in art. His teacher was the painter Nikolaos Doxaras. Koutouzis has 136 paintings attributed to him. He was one of the last Greek painters to incorporate the Venetian style during its decline, due to the Fall of the Republic of Venice. He was the teacher of Nikolaos Kantounis, who was heavily influenced by his style.

## Biography

He was born in a part of Greece that was under Venetian, rather than Ottoman control. He appears to have taken his first art lessons from Nikolaos Doxaras, who lived on Zakynthos during the 1750s. At the age of sixteen, under his direction, Koutouzis painted decorations at the Churches of Saint John of Damascus and Saint Demetrius, both of which have since been destroyed. He may have lived in Venice from 1760 to 1764, and been apprenticed to Giovanni Tiepolo. If so, he was definitely back at Zakynthos in 1766, painting the "Procession of Saint Dionysius".
He also wrote satirical poems on local affairs and scandals, which often contained sharp lampoons of his contemporaries. In 1770, this led to an assault, during which he was wounded in the face. To hide the scar, he grew a beard. This event is also cited as his reason for becoming a priest, but it was seven years later before he took up priestly duties on Lefkada. He subsequently became a parish priest at several locations on his native island.
Nevertheless, he continued to write satirical poetry. This, combined with what was considered a theatrical manner of conducting church services, led to clashes with his superiors and parishioners. Eventually, he was charged with "misconduct and violation of the Orthodox ritual" and was defrocked in 1810. Three years later, some of his accusers recanted and he was reinstated but refused to take up his duties. He died a few months later. Although he focused on religious painting, his portraits were better known during his lifetime. He also took in the occasional student, most notably Nikolaos Kantounis.

# Jan O. Karlsson

Jan Olov Karlsson (1 June 1939 – 19 September 2016) was a Swedish politician; former Minister for Development Cooperation, Migration and Asylum Policy (2002-2003) and acting Minister for Foreign Affairs (11 September-10 October 2003), following the murder of Anna Lindh. He also served as President of the European Court of Auditors.

## Career

Jan O. Karlsson studied economics, political science and history at Stockholm University, before becoming an undersecretary at the Ministry of Agriculture in 1962. In 1968 he transferred to the Office of the Prime Minister where he worked as an advisor. From 1973 he served as secretary to the Deputy Mayor of Stockholm and in 1977 he became the deputy secretary for the presidency of the Nordic Council. Following the election in 1982 when the Social Democrats returned to power he was made state secretary at the Ministry of Finance. Following the election in 1988 he was instead made chairman for the government commission of inquiry on metropolitan areas, and in 1990 once again advisor and coordinator at the prime minister's Office.
Between 1991 and 1994 when the Social Democrats were in opposition Karlsson worked as an advisor for the party parliamentary group. In the autumn of 1994 the Swedes went to the ballot box on two occasions. The first swept the Social Democrats back to power and in the second Sweden joined the European Union. As a consequence of this Jan O. Karlsson was nominated by the Swedish Government as its representative to the European Court of Auditors in 1995, and on 18 January 1999 he became President of the Court. As the head of a principal organ in the European Union he held one of the most senior position within the European Union, number five in the top hierarchy. He held this position until 31 December 2001 when he resigned after being offered a cabinet post. He died on 19 September 2016 at the age of 77.

## Minister

Jan O. Karlsson's tenure as minister was far from smooth, his relation with the local press was troublesome, often attributed to his late father, who also was a high ranking social democratic politician, who died of a heart attack during an interview with a journalist. In spite of a number of minor political scandals – he, among other things, referred to George W. Bush as "that damn Texan geezer" ("den där jävla texasgubben") and abruptly murmured (with a microphone attached to his jacket) "now we better see an end to these fag issues" (nu får det väl vara slut på de här bögfrågorna) during a SIDA conference – he was able to maintain the trust of prime minister Göran Persson and keep his place in the Cabinet. His appointment as acting Minister for Foreign Affairs following the death of Anna Lindh on 11 September 2003, was a short-term solution. Changes in government, effective on 10 October the same year, forced him to resign his post.

# British Colonial Research Committee

The British Colonial Research Committee (or the Colonial Research Council after 1947) was an advisory organisation of the British state which existed between 1942 and 1959. 16 volumes consisting of the archives of this body are kept at The National Archive. It was established under Lord Hailey.
The Committee was established in June 1942 to offer advice on how the Secretary of State for the Colonies should spend funds allocated by the Colonial Development and Welfare Act 1940. Its role was to co-ordinate research of various sub-committees and cover any areas which came to light beyond the purview of these sub-committees. It was also inspired by the Institut Francais de l'Afrique Noire to establish regional research institutes located in colonial countries. After February 1948 This work was taken over by the Colonial Research Council. This in turn was dissolved in 1959 and replaced by the Overseas Research Council, who advised the Committee of the Privy Council on Overseas Research.
The Committee established a series of more focused committees:
# Jacob J. Hinlopen

Jacob J. Hinlopen (1582 – 1629 in Amsterdam) lived in a house with Hinlopen in the gable, now at 155 Nieuwendijk. He traded in cloth and Indian wares. In 1602 he was co-founder of the Dutch East India Company in Enkhuizen: his descendants inherited very old stocks. In 1617 he became the first person of Flemish origin to obtain a seat on the City Council.

## Jacob J. Hinlopen, father

Jacob J. Hinlopen became a friend of Joost van den Vondel, at that time also an Arminian. His wife was Sara de Wael (1591–1652), the daughter of a Haarlem burgomaster, beer brewer and investor in the new development, the Lastage. The couple inhabited Herengracht 130, a double-wide canal house.
His brother Frans traded with Dutch Loango-Angola; his brother Tijmen, for whom the Hinlopen Strait on Svalbard was named, was the director of the Noordsche Company and traded with Moscovy. His brother-in-law, Johan de Wael, burgomaster of Haarlem, was imprisoned for some weeks in 1650 at Loevestein Castle with Jacob de Witt, before the raid on Amsterdam by stadholder William II of Orange.

## Jacob J. Hinlopen, son

After the death of their mother, the two sons inherited the mansion, designed by Philips Vingboons. Today Pijnenburg in the surroundings of Soest is still the largest domain in private possession. The ancestral house near the harbour was sold. The brothers bought lots in the Jordaan, hired a carpenter, and speculated in the construction of cheap houses.
Jacob became commissioner of the Desolate Boedelkamer (Chamber of Insolvent Estates) and was involved in the selling of Rembrandt possessions and the inheritance of Titus van Rijn, the son of Rembrandt.
Like his brother Jan, Jacob J. Hinlopen (1621–1679) is also known as a collector of paintings, including a Samson, and The Woman Taken in Adultery, both by Rembrandt. The latter work was bought in 1657 for 1500 guilders at auction from Johannes de Renialme, an art trader. It was, at that time, held in higher regard than any other work by Rembrandt.
Jacob lived on the Kloveniersburgwal, opposite Jan Six, who was related to his wife, Anna Tholinx. Jacob J. Hinlopen was, until his death, tutor to Johanna Maria and Sara, the two children of his brother Jan J. Hinlopen. After his burial, the paintings formerly belonging to his brother were assigned by lot to his nieces.

## Jacob J. Hinlopen, grandson

Jacob J. Hinlopen (1644–1705) married Deborah Popta. This Jacob had very many functions, among which director of the VOC, schout and burgomaster. He moved in 1680 to Golden Bend, in a house which is now the Goethe Institute. He was the owner of the renowned Rembrandt painting "The Storm on the Sea of Galilee". The fairly large painting was stolen in 1990 from the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in Boston.

# Casting the Net

Casting the Net is an oil-on-canvas painting by French artist Suzanne Valadon, executed in 1914. It has the dimensions of 201 by 301 cm. It is held in the collection of the Museum of Fine Arts in Nancy.

## History and analysis

The painting was executed in 1914 and exhibited from March 1 to April 30, 1914, at the Salon des Indépendants. Valadon's son, the painter Maurice Utrillo, and her lover and model for this painting, André Utter, also exhibited there. During this exhibition, the canvas did not go unnoticed for its size and was subjected to some criticism. The Swiss writer and artist Arthur Cravan (known for scandalous outrageousness) subjected the picture and the artist herself to fierce criticism: “[she] knows all sorts of tricks well, but simplifying does not mean doing it in a simple way, old bitch!”. He was convicted of libel, and he later wrote: "Contrary to my assertion, Madame Suzanne Valadon is virtue itself".
Valadon was infatuated with the young artist André Utter, a friend of her son who was 25 years younger than Valadon, and who became her lover. They got married in 1914, when the painting was made. It is Utter who is depicted on the canvas, as a naked man, standing in three different poses and who reproduces the same gesture in each of them. He embodies youth; the canvas emphasizes the power of the model, in the action of casting a fishing net. The net actually serves as a pretext for depicting his naked body tense with effort. In the first two positions, the man leans on his left leg. The model's athletic body further enhances the erotic nature of the composition.
The canvas represents a classical composition on an academic theme and has a geometric design. This study of movement is reminiscent of the painting Dance (1910) by Henri Matisse (Hermitage Museum, Saint Petersburg). The pink mountain and the blue lake were inspired by the artist's stay in Corsica and are also reminiscent of Paul Cézanne's tones.
The artist uses outline, clearly delineating the silhouette of the model in space, a technique previously used, among others, by Edgar Degas and Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec. The colors of the painting are warm and sensual.
This is also the last painting where Valadon depicted a male nude. Subsequently, she became more interested in female and child nudes. Valadon was perceived as a symbol of a liberated and active woman, depicting a man as an object of desire. She breaks with the bourgeois conventions of her time by marrying a younger man and by depicting the male nude in her work.

## Provenance

The work was purchased from Madame Vigneron, who received it from the artist herself. The canvas was acquired by the Musée National d'Art Moderne in Paris in 1937, and in 1998 it was transferred to the Museum of Fine Arts of Nancy, for safekeeping.

# Max Coyer

Max Coyer (1954–1988) was an American artist, born in Hartford, Connecticut in 1954.

## Early life and education

Max Coyer attended Trinity College in his hometown of Hartford, Connecticut for two years, majoring in poetry. He moved to New York City in 1980 and began his life as a visual artist. He began exhibiting frequently at Harm Bouckaert Gallery in Tribeca.

## Synthetic art

"Synthetic Art" was the theory and term coined by Max Coyer to describe his work. His paintings were essentially an amalgamation of both academic and modernist art movements, heavily influenced by both and with neither of their methods. In a 1984 interview he stated "Synthetic art accepts other art."
Historical references, mark experimentation, stenciling, and symbolism were all prevalent techniques in Coyer's work. Notable series of works include the cone paintings, which he created after having a "strong and pleasant dream about flying in a spaceship" and depict a cone with its point down and two sides like an arc of a circle, which has been read as an abstract head with two shoulders; and the opium paintings which were supposedly inspired by Jean Cocteau's series of self-portraits that he drew during treatment for his addiction to the drug, opium. It is said that Cocteau's drawings were about the agonies of withdrawal from drugs, and Coyer's paintings served as metaphors for a type of artistic withdrawal from the tenets of modernism after "modernism became a habit."

## Exhibitions

Coyer's work has been exhibited all over the country. Throughout the 1980s, Coyer frequently exhibited in New York City and was represented by the Harm Bouckaert Gallery in Tribeca. Other notable exhibitions include the Dalsheimer Gallery of Baltimore and the Louis Newman Galleries of Beverly Hills.

## Death

Max Coyer died of AIDS in 1988. The remainder of his work currently resides with his family in Connecticut.
