His dramatic transformation into a graffiti artist who works on canvas rather than on the streets is an established part of the scholarly and popular record. What is largely unknown and revealed by the Archives of American Art’s Bojórquez Papers is that the years leading up to this transition in the artist’s practice were filled with explorations of clouds. The papers document Bojórquez’s “lasting interest in clouds,” expressing his attachment to continuous motion, energy, and contradictory properties. They also highlight his developing belief that art should function as a tool of human communication and cultural empowerment. Consideration of the artist’s early cloud imagery discloses a burgeoning ethos of universalism that would be articulated more fully in his graffiti-based paintings. In these later works, Bojórquez embraced the local aesthetics of the Avenues as a means of connecting with a global audience.","PeriodicalId":41204,"journal":{"name":"ARCHIVES OF AMERICAN ART JOURNAL","volume":"90 1","pages":"28 - 47"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2018-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76164438","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

He applied this question to the case of nineteenth-century American painter John Quidor, whose historical and literary subjects scholar Ross Barrett has connected to the artist’s fervor for land speculation. Nemerov commended Barrett for deftly yoking Quidor’s art to his social context, supported by archival evidence. Yet Nemerov maintained that art can still be “a thing apart” from the social realm, marked by its “otherness” and thus not wholly explained by the archive. These ideas have sparked much debate among art historians, and so we invited a selection of them to respond with their own questions and case studies. The eleven texts featured here represent a variety of research areas and methodologies, and conclude with reflections by both Barrett and Nemerov.","PeriodicalId":41204,"journal":{"name":"ARCHIVES OF AMERICAN ART JOURNAL","volume":"5 1","pages":"62 - 77"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2018-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75543906","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Both independently and with support from the Latino Center, the Archives’ permanent staff and a network of expert associates have conducted and collected dozens of oral histories of Latino artists, scholars, collectors, and curators in California, Texas, and Southern Florida since the mid-1990s. In 2015, I inherited a collection rich in Latino content on which I continue to build, now in the role of the Archives’ national collector. Some of the documents highlighted in this essay derive from acquisitions that predate my tenure at the Archives, while others entered the collection over the course of the two-year Latino collecting initiative I oversaw from 2015 to 2017. A common thread runs through each example: evidence that Latino art is integral to the story of American art. The Archives’ Latino holdings not only add quantitatively to the histories of American art legitimized at a national level by their presence at the Smithsonian, but also alter fundamentally the terms and categories we use in defining the field.","PeriodicalId":41204,"journal":{"name":"ARCHIVES OF AMERICAN ART JOURNAL","volume":"78 1","pages":"78 - 93"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2018-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82497243","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
