Howard Chandler Christy -- The Barracks Centennial 2009 at his former home in Blue Rock, Ohio
On the evening of June 27, 2009, over a 200 people came to The Barracks, the former Ohio home of legendary American illustrator and painter Howard Chandler Christy (1872-1952), to celebrate his life and works and the centennial of his studio barn which he used from 1909 until 1915. It was in that barn that he created some of the most iconic illustrations of that era for Cosmopolitan magazine and popular books such as Alfred Lord Tennyson's The Princess, Rex Beach's The Ne'er Do Well, James Whitcom Riley's When She Was About Sixteen, and Mary Roberts Rinehart's The Man in Lower Ten. In the years following, Christy would go on to paint some of the most famous and important people of his time, from U.S. presidents to European royalty, and from movie stars to living legends.
Jim Head, the presenter of this speech on Christy, has written a trilogy on the life of Christy, titled An Affair with Beauty -- The Mystique of Howard Chandler Christy. To learn more, please go to ANAFFAIRWITHBEAUTY.COM

This video rotates for specific reasons, breaking the focus of a typical video. This video is not about the young woman.
Each repetition focuses upon a different element. First, woman is oblivious to her own behavior. Eventually you view that which she is viewing. You replace her, The is a suspension of time depicted in this video, the sound of the child singing is ones own childhood when thing were such a wonder, the footsteps a passage of time.
I try to describe what is otherwise indescribable.
Its about the act of viewing, about being suspended into the moment, forgetting the self. Its about YOU being confronted with something wonderful.

wiberforce University
Wilberforce University is a private, coed, liberal arts historically black university (HBCU) located in Wilberforce, Ohio. Affiliated with the African Methodist Episcopal (AME) Church, it was the first college to be owned and operated by African Americans. It participates in the United Negro College Fund.
The founding of the college was unique as a collaboration in 1856 by the Cincinnati, Ohio Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church and the African Methodist Episcopal Church (AME). They planned a college to provide classical education and teacher training for black youth. Leaders of both races made up the first board members.
When the number of students fell due to the American Civil War and financial losses closed the college in 1863, the AME Church purchased the institution to ensure its survival. Its first president, AME Bishop Daniel A. Payne, was one of the original founders. Prominent supporters and the US government donated funds for rebuilding after a fire in 1865. When the college added an industrial department in the late 19th century, state legislators could sponsor scholarship students.
The college attracted the top professors of the day, including W. E. B. Du Bois. In the 19th century, it enlarged its mission to include students from South Africa. The university supports the national Association of African American Museums to broaden the reach of its programs and assist smaller museums with professional standards.........
History[edit]
Located three miles (5 km) from Xenia, Ohio in the southwestern part of the state, the founding of Wilberforce University was a collaboration among leaders of the Cincinnati Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church and the African Methodist Episcopal Church. They planned to promote classical education and teacher training for black youth. Among the first 24 members of the Board of Trustees in 1855 were Bishop Daniel A. Payne, Rev. Lewis Woodson and Messrs. Ishmael Keith and Alfred Anderson, all of the AME Church.[4] Also on the Board were Salmon P. Chase, then Governor of Ohio and a strong supporter of abolition; a member of the Ohio State Legislature, and other Methodist leaders from the white community. They named the college after the British abolitionist and statesman, William Wilberforce.[5]
As a base for the college, the Cincinnati Conference bought a hotel, cottages and 54 acres (220,000 m2) of a resort property, named Tawawa Springs after a Shawnee word for clear or golden water. European Americans had founded the health resort because of the springs, which historically the Native Americans had long used. Because of its location, the resort attracted summer people from both Cincinnati and the South. Some people in this area of abolitionist sentiment were shocked when wealthy Southern planters arrived at the resort with their entourages of enslaved or free African-American mistresses and mixed-race natural (illegitimate) children.[6]
Given migration patterns, this was also an area where numerous free people of color settled, many having moved across the Ohio River from the South to find better work and living conditions. In addition, some southern states prohibited free blacks from settling. Xenia had quite a large free black population, as did other towns in southern Ohio, such as Chillicothe, Yellow Springs and Zanesville. Free blacks and anti-slavery white supporters used houses in Xenia as stations on the Underground Railroad in the years before the war. Wilberforce College also supported freedom-seeking slaves.
The college opened for classes in 1856, and by 1858 its trustees selected Rev. Richard S. Rust as the first President.[5] By 1860 the university had more than 200 students.[7] Most were from the South rather than Ohio or northern states. They were the natural mixed-race sons and daughters of wealthy white planters and their African-American mistresses.[7] The fathers paid for the education denied their children in the South.[6] They were among the fathers who did not abandon their mixed-race children but provided them with the social capital of education and sometimes property.

Window On Collecting Art & Antiques: #2 - Weller Sicard Pottery & Jacques Sicard
Window On Collecting Art & Antiques: Weller Sicard Pottery & Jacques Sicard. This is episode #2 in the video series by fine artist and collector, Paul J. Katrich.
Jacques Sicard was an unique pottery decorator, who developed his own glazes and methods to achieve extraordinary colors with iridescent, satin-matte surfaces. He first developed these glazes and techniques in the late 1800's while working with the important studio potter, Clement Massier in France. Then in the early 1900's, Sicard came to the United States and designed works for the Weller Pottery in Zanesville, Ohio. There he produced the famous Weller Sicard line of pottery, also known as Sicardo. Jacques Sicard produced this pottery in secret, and when he left Weller Pottery in 1907, they were unable to continue his methods.
The video series, Window On Collecting Art & Antiques is written and presented by Paul J. Katrich. He has a lifelong passion for art and antiques, both as a collector and a fine artist. Paul Katrich started collecting antiques as a teenager, at the same time as becoming an accomplished painter. He then earned a degree in Art History and a Graduate Certificate in Archival Administration. For a few years Mr. Katrich owned a business restoring antiques, when he learned various techniques and inspirations of other artists, including methods to create ceramics. Finally in 1995 he decided to start a modern studio pottery, Katrich Studios, where he developed his own formulas and techniques for luster ceramics. Today Paul Katrich creates unique works that continue 1000's of years of ceramic traditions and progress. Luster Pottery by Paul J. Katrich can be seen in other videos. His pottery is available at The Showplace galleries in New York City, and at fine antiques & arts shows, listed at his website, Katrich.com.
