The Bicycle Logs of Walter Anderson by John Anderson Pdf

Before The Horn Island Logs of Walter Anderson, the islander came ashore. An explorer as well as an artist, Walter Anderson consistently kept logs and created artwork on his journeys. Whether he was walking through China toward Tibet, sailing a small boat out to camp on a wilderness island, or bicycling two thousand miles, his travels are fascinating and paint an image of a unique life. The Bicycle Logs of Walter Anderson give an extraordinary opportunity to look through the eyes of an artist as he is becoming an artist. Through this extensive collection of mostly never-before-seen art and writings, we can travel along with him on his adventures and share in his intense love of life. Walter's son, John G. Anderson, sets the Logs in context with historical events to show what was happening in his life when each one was being written. Because these logs span his whole life, they provide a complete timeline and give readers an opportunity to understand him better by reading his own words and looking through his eyes. By revealing why he lived, this book opens the door to exciting new questions about him and about his world. 300 pages, hardcover.

Walter Anderson by Robert St. John,Anthony Thaxton Pdf

Robert St. John and Anthony Thaxton have produced a beautiful new volume of art and family stories highlighting the prolific and reclusive Walter Inglis Anderson. It is a stunning collection filled with beautiful imagery and writings from an artist some critics have called "America's Van Gogh." Though featured in countless books and exhibitions (including a 2003 retrospective show at the Smithsonian Institution on the centennial of his birth), Walter Anderson has not yet achieved his deserved place in American art history. This book shines light on all the facets of Anderson's unbelievable output and presents a thoughtful progression of his life and art.With complete access to the Anderson family archives and the vaults of the Walter Anderson Museum of Art, this comprehensive volume brings together much of the artist's finest work as well as paintings and photographs which have never before been published. Also included with the purchase of this book are complimentary download links to the acclaimed documentary film and soundtrack. Walter Anderson: The Extraordinary Life and Art of The Islander is an eye-opening and inspiring book to be treasured and dipped into again and again.

Walter Anderson's Illustrations of Epic and Voyage by Walter Inglis Anderson Pdf

A further relevation of the especial talents of the Ocean Springs, Mississippi, artist, Walter Inglis Anderson. The Horn Island Logs of Walter Inglis Anderson (Memphis, 1973), A Painter’s Psalm (Memphis, 1978) and the award-winning film, The Islander (1978) examined Anderson as a poet, writer, potter, naturalist, watercolorist, and muralist. Here Redding Sugg introduces us to Anderson as an illustrator of classic literature. Walter Anderson’s legacy includes at least 9,500 graphic ren­derings of characters and scenes from classic literature. From this prodigious output Sugg has selected 120 pen-and-ink illus­trations for this book. In his Introduction Sugg provides a bio­graphical sketch plus an analytical evaluation of this fascinating artist’s work. The book is divided into three categories: “Figures and Atti­tudes,” composed of single figures such as Polydamas, Priam, Ros-cranna, Orlando, Angelica, and Don Quixote; “Scenes,” featuring interactions between characters; and “Sequences,” consisting of series from Pope’s Iliad, Don Quixote, Paradise Lost, and Bullfinch’s Legends of Charlemagne. Each series creates the illusion of movement, as in an animated cartoon. Other illustrations are from Paradise Regained, Temora from The Poems of Ossian, The Rime of the Ancient Mariner, Faust, and Darwin’s The Voyage of the Beagle. Anderson drew at night, often working into the morning. Drawings accumulated, littered the table, fell to the floor. There he was content to abandon them, but his wife collected them each morning. Mrs. Anderson describes a typical scene: “Sometimes in the very early morning, when he was just stopping, I would catch him quietly feeding, with a teaspoon, coffee to a couple of very large oaktree cockroaches who seemed to be his pets, and he would laugh, gently but pointedly, when I objected… He said they were his ‘familiars.’ The illustrations seemed, certainly, to take the place of any interest in more usual things such as sex. Often, we would hear him singing Beethoven’s Seventh Symphony or the Emperor Concerto; he often worked to his own or someone else’s music.” Walter Inglis Anderson (1903–1965) studied at Parsons In­stitute, New York; was graduated from the Pennsylvania Acad­emy of the Fine Arts, Philadelphia; and studied in France on a Cresson Award. A retrospective traveling exhibition, “The World of Walter Anderson” which included ceramics, drawings, oils, prints, sculpture, and watercolors was mounted in 1967 by Brooks Memorial Art Gallery, Memphis.
