Farmer's Almanac as Art?

Posted by rhonda in Exhibitions

rhonda

Farmers Almanac Ran across a site showcasing antique farmer's almanacs used as art. They also have a gallery . From the site...

The Farmers’ Almanac has been used as a guide post for weather forecasting for centuries (the first Farmers Almanac was published in 1818!) Its influence continues to be strong today, despite the availability of modern weather forecasting on TV, or up-to-the-minute updates on the internet.

The Farmers’ Almanac, an annual North American publication, was just released this week, and the popularity of the search term “Farmers Almanac” proves its influence remains strong.

Profile: Emily Kame Kngwarreye

Emily Kngwarreye PhotoAboriginal Artist Emily Kame Kngwarreye

 In the 1990s Emily Kame Kngwarreye (c.1910-1996) emerged as one of Australia's leading painters of modern times. Kngwarreye's prominence is no overnight sensation; it finds its roots in a lifetime of ritual and artistic activity. Her energetic paintings are a response to the land of her birth, Alhalkere, north of Alice Springs - the contours of the landscape, the cycles of seasons, the parched land, the flow of flooding waters and sweeping rains, the patterns of seeds and the shape of plants, and the spiritual forces which imbue the country. Kngwarreye's vision of the land is unique; her paintings challenge the way we look at art by Aboriginal Australians.

Profiles - The Historic Arkansas Museum

Posted by bconverse in profiles

bconverse
Historic Arkansas Museum Historic Arkansas Museum , formerly known as Arkansas Territorial Restoration, is a historic site museum located in the heart of downtown Little Rock.  On its grounds are some of the oldest buildings in the state, on their original sites: the 1830s Hinderliter Grog Shop, the 1840s McVicar and Brownlee Houses, and the 1820s Arkansas Gazette print shop are joined by the transplanted Plum Bayou Log House, an 1830s plantation house from Scott, Arkansas. These carefully restored and furnished buildings preserve Arkansas’s heritage and reveal an important truth about the state’s most exciting period – that the rough-and-ready frontier territory and fledgling state also had its touches of elegance and refinement.

Each day the museum offers expertly guided tours on the hour (except noon). The
