Just because you missed the World's Fair of 1893 doesn't mean that you have to miss celebrating the artwork that was on display in the Palace of Fine Arts. The World's Fair of 1893 enthralled millions of 19th-century visitors with electricity, technology, and the Midway Plaisance. It also featured a fantastic collection of art from celebrated painters and sculptors around the world. Originally published in 1893, this rare guide to the artworks featured at the World's Columbian Exposition was prepared with the sanction and under the direct supervision of the Art Department and Charles M. Kurtz, Assistant Chief of the Art Department. Some of the celebrated artists featured on display in this guide include: William Merritt Chase John Everett Millais Louis Comfort Tiffany Walter M. Gay Charles Sprague Pearce Childe Hassam Gerke Henkes Jean Paul Sinibaldi Elizabeth Nourse Madeleine Lemaire Augusto Corelli John Enneking Maurice Realier-Dumas Henry Scott Tuke Charles Edward Perugini Edwin Lord Weeks Albert Neuhuys Walter L. Dean Augusto Corelli Miss Laura Alma-Tadema Albert Maignan Jose Jimenez Aranda Luis Jimenez Aranda Anton Mauve Richard Friese Edmund C. Tarbell This guide features more than 300 crisp black and white photographs from the time scanned from an original leather-bound source. The introductory retains the original, classic type font. This special edition printing features enlarged pages, and a new cover design fit for display. Writers and editors at the time organized most of the reprints beside each artist's name and nationality for easy identification. Styles and subject matter in the collection include Realism, American Impressionism, Landscape Paintings, Genre Paintings, History Paintings, Portraiture, Religious Scenes, Seascapes, and much more.

'The Aestheticization of History and the Butterfly Effect: Visual Arts Series' introduces the audience to philosophical concepts that broach the beginning of the history of Western thought in Plato and Aristotle to that of more modern thought in the theoretician Jacques Rancière in which the main conceptual framework of this anthology is predicated. The introduction is mainly concerned with Rancière’s concept of the distribution of the sensible, which is the arrangement of things accessible to our senses, what we experience in real-time and space— compartmentalization and categorization of all things. These things do not just involve tangible items, but audible speech, written language, and visibilities. Rancière’s theory of the regimes of art is undertaken as the unfolding of the distribution. Such is evoked in the various genres of visual art forms, from two-dimensional paintings to three-dimensional sculptures and architectures. Understanding the aesthetic regime of art is crucial for grasping how art performs time travel. One way of understanding this phenomenon is in terms of embodied philosophy imbued vis-à-vis art forms, which are subsequently challenged by contemporary artists. The contributing essays examine these reiterations, reevaluations—performances. Aesthetics is a term deriving from the 18th-century European Enlightenment. It is here that aesthetics as the study of beauty is probed for its political potential after the failure of the French Revolution. Many major thinkers during this period signed on to the aesthetic moment, recognizing that Reason in its present state failed to develop humankind beyond barbarism. J.E.B. Stuart's statue is part of an equestrian theme that approximates the Western canon of power and class in the pursuit of domination. But such power and domination will be dethroned in the restaging of history and the redistribution of said canon. This reimagining of the form not only alters perception but constitutes a new narrative.

Robert W. Rydell contends that America's early world's fairs actually served to legitimate racial exploitation at home and the creation of an empire abroad. He looks in particular to the "ethnological" displays of nonwhites—set up by showmen but endorsed by prominent anthropologists—which lent scientific credibility to popular racial attitudes and helped build public support for domestic and foreign policies. Rydell's lively and thought-provoking study draws on archival records, newspaper and magazine articles, guidebooks, popular novels, and oral histories.
