Remembering Grandma Moses by Beth Moses Hickok Pdf

This is a portrayal, not of Grandma Moses's primitive paintings, but the woman herself: a crusty, feisty, upstate New York farmwife and grandmother, as remembered in affectionate detail by Beth Moses Hickok, who married into the family at 22, and raised two of Grandma's granddaughters. Set in 1934, four years before Grandma was discovered as an artist and soon gained national renown, the book includes treasured family snapshots, and an album of photographs that evoke the landscape of Eagle Bridge, New York, Grandma Moses's home for most of her long life. The cover depicts a rare colorful yarn painting given to the author as a wedding present by the artist.

Designs on the Heart by Karal Ann Marling Pdf

"In this book Karal Ann Marling looks at Grandma Moses as a cultural phenomenon of the postwar period and explores the meaning of her subject matter - and her astonishing fame. What did the "Greatest Generation" see in her simple renderings of people, young and old, tapping maple trees for syrup, making apple butter, gliding across snowy fields on sleighs? Why did Bob Hope, Irving Berlin, and Harry Truman all love her - and the art czars' of New York openly despise her? Through the flood of Moses merchandise - splashed across Christmas cards, dishware, yard goods, and gewgaws of every kind - Marling traces the resonances that these "primitive" images struck in an America awkwardly adjusting to a new era of technology, suburbia, and Cold War tensions.".
