Albert Bierstadt’s story runs counter to the romanticized idea of a passionate starving artist. He was strategic in his career, selecting imagery that he knew would appeal to U.S. audiences, and monetizing his art outside of selling paintings.

The Thomas Cole National Historic Site is a National Historic Landmark that includes the former home, also known as Cedar Grove, and the studio of painter Thomas Cole, founder of the Hudson River School of American painting. Located in the village of Catskill, NY, Thomas Cole lived and worked there between 1833 until his death in 1848. In 1965, the property was declared a National Historic Landmark and designated a National Historic Site in 1999. It is also considered an affiliated area of the National Park Service. Cedar Grove, a Federal Era house, was restored and opened to the public in 2001. Aided by historical photographs, sketches, and a painting, Cole's 'New Studio', originally built in 1846 and demolished in 1973, was reconstructed and reopened to the public in 2016. It currently is used for traveling exhibitions that change periodically. The house and the studio are open for tours, events and workshops throughout the year. Three years later, in partnership with the Olana State Historic Site and the New York State Bridge Authority, the Hudson River Skywalk was opened, creating a pedestrian walkway across the Rip Van Winkle Bridge connecting Olana with the Thomas Cole Historic Site. There is also the Mawignack Preserve, a park along the Catskill Creek that is operated by the Greene Land Trust, which contains signage about Thomas Cole as it was one of his favorite places to paint. This was all possible through a dedicated team of volunteers led by Elizabeth Jacks, an Executive director of the site for over two decades. She joins the Nature Calls: Conversations from the Hudson Valley to talk about how the site's history and how it has evolved thanks to the many partnerships that have been formed over time. During her tenure, Betsy expanded the campus from one building to six and grew the organization's operating budget tenfold. She emphasizes that historic sites are actually for the living, to help us all better understand the past and how history has helped to shape how we see the world today.

If you've never walked into an interior which caused your jaw to drop then you haven't witnessed the overwhelming effect a built environment can have. There are few of these places extant and even fewer here in the United States. I'm lucky to live just a few miles from one - the hilltop home of the Hudson River School painter Frederic Church, Olana. Perched on a mountaintop overlooking the Hudson River, it's sited facing southwest to take in the views of the Catskill Mountains to the west and the winding path of the river down towards NYC. Olana is a sight to behold. Church was the most famous painter in America in the late 19th century. His massive paintings of the natural world wooed critics and the masses alike. Olana was his masterpiece. 250 acres of woodlands, lakes and carriage roads with a house unlike any built before. Its design was wrested from his imagination after trips to the Middle East. Exotic doesn't even begin to describe it. Its architecture and interior colors are unique. You've never seen a home as colorful as this. It shouldn't work, yet it does. Until you get the opportunity to visit Olana listen in. It's the next best thing.

Rocks are any naturally occurring solid mass or aggregate of minerals. There are three major types of rock: igneous which are formed through the cooling of lava sedimentary which are formed by the accumulation or deposition or mineral or organic particles metamorphic which result from the transformation of existing rock to new types of rock as a result of extreme temperatures or pressure Studying rocks provides us with a primary record of much of the geological history of the Earth. Geology describes the structure of the earth and the processes that have shaped that structure. By studying the earth's structure, geologists determine the relative ages of rocks found at a given location. They use a wide variety of methods to understand this, including fieldwork, rock description, geophysical techniques, chemical analysis, and more. The Hudson River School was a mid-19th-century American art movement embodied by a group of landscape painters who created a realistic, detailed, and sometimes idealized portrayal of nature, often juxtaposing peaceful agriculture and wilderness, which was fast disappearing from the Hudson Valley just as it was coming to be appreciated The study of art along with geology can provide insights into the past culture, especially when you combine the Hudson River School paintings with our local geologists, Robert and Johanna Titus. By studying the paintings of Thomas Cole, Frederic Church and others, the Tituses help to provide additional insights into some popular tourist and cultural locations in the Catskills and the Hudson Valley. Robert Titus, PhD, is a paleontologist by training, and a retired professor at Hartwick College in the Geology Department, who has don considerable professional research on the fossils of New York. Johanna Titus, MS, has a degree in molecular biology, also a retired professor from SUNY Dutchess. Together, they have authored multiple books (The Hudson Valley in the Ice Age; The Catskills in the Ice Age; The Catskills: A Geological Guide; and The Hudson River Schools of Art and Their Ice Age Origins). They are also regular columnists for The Mountain Eagle newspaper. They joined the Nature Calls: Conversations from the Hudson Valley team in a delightful conversation about the Art of Rocks.

"I am influenced by many things—1980's guitars, VHS tapes, World War I battleships, sunrise/sunset gradients, moiré patterns, and more. Over the past 3 years, ‘notions of cycle' have played an increased role in the development of my paintings; and I'm curious how the avant-garde succeeds and fails within popular culture. Currently, I'm interested in how the landscape has been depicted throughout American culture. Whether it's Thomas Cole and Albert Bierstadt of the Hudson River School, Georgia O'Keeffe's monumental work at the Art Institute of Chicago, or an Instagram post of a sunset—each conveys a romanticized view of our world. The most recent paintings are an amalgamation of experiences that I've had within the American landscape; with each painting flowing freely between representation and abstraction."

Jesus Christ left heaven to enter this sin-cursed world as a human being to open the doorway back into the presence of God. - SERMON TRANSCRIPT - This fall I was visiting my family, the part of my family that lives up in Boston and my daughter Carolyn, and I went to the Boston Museum of Fine Arts. In one of the galleries there we saw a painting that just arrested me and seized my imagination and caused me to ponder for a long time. The painting was entitled, Expulsion from the Garden of Eden, and it was painted by Thomas Cole. It's a dramatic scene, of course, depicting the most tragic event in human history. Adam and Eve's sin in the Garden of Eden leading to God's curse on them and on the world and the judicial sentence of death descending on them. God then righteously expelled them from the Garden of Eden and put a guardian cherub with a flaming sword flashing back and forth to guard the way into the Garden lest any of them or their descendants should eat from the Tree of lLife. Thomas Cole, who painted that painting was an ardent evangelical Christian who lived in the first third of the 19th century, and he painted this masterpiece in the year 1828. Cole was a founder of the Hudson River School of Landscape Painting. He dearly loved the pristine beauty of nature all over the world, but especially in his home area of the Catskill Mountains in upstate New York. Cole's painting of the expulsion of Adam and Eve from the Garden of Eden is basically divided in half. The right half of the painting is the beautiful Garden of Eden with clear blue skies, fair weather, clouds, stunningly beautiful snow cap, mountains in the distance and alluring lake in the valley between the mountains, lush greenery, abundant with colorful flowers in the foreground, paradise lost. The left half of the painting is bleak with dark colors of volcano erupting lava in the distance, flashes of lightning coming from the ominous storm clouds, a straggly apparently dead tree dominating the foreground with apparently dead animals at the foot of that tree. Adam and Eve themselves are tiny, barely noticeable as they hurry from the Garden of Eden into the dark dying world that their sin destroyed. They hurry into that cursed world across a stone bridge that spans a deep chasm shrouded in darkness. The waters of a flood seem to be hurdling down the chasm toward them. Between the brilliantly light right side of the painting and the dark left side is a passageway, like a doorway made of stone, like the entrance it seems to a cave. In the center of that doorway, brilliant light emanates with overpowering rays. Those rays perhaps represent the glory of God chasing the two sinners from paradise, or perhaps the flaming sword in the hands of the guardian cherub ready to kill them if they should try to double back. It is of the expulsion from the presence of God and of this brilliantly lit passageway back into the presence of God that I want to speak tonight. It was in order to open this doorway back into the presence of God that Jesus Christ left heaven and entered this sin curse world as a human being. My texts tonight are Ephesians 2:13 and Hebrews 10:19-22. Hear them again, Ephesians 2:13 says, "But now in Christ Jesus, you who once were far away have been brought near through the blood of Christ." And again, Hebrews 10:19-22, "Therefore, brothers, since we have confidence to enter the most Holy place by the blood of Jesus, by a new and living way opened for us through the curtain that is his body. And since we have a great priest over the house of God, let us draw near to God with a sincere heart in full assurance of faith, having our heart sprinkled to cleanse us from a guilty conscience and having our bodies washed with pure water.” I. Expelled From Eden First expelled from Eden, Adam and Eve were created perfect by God in the image of God and placed in that perfect world in which everything had been declared very good by God. Adam was formed first from the dust of the earth and put in the Garden of Eden to serve and protect it. Adam was clearly commanded by God, you are free to eat from any tree in the garden, but you must not eat from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil for when you eat of it, you'll surely die. This freedom to eat from any tree in Eden was evidence of the lavish generosity and love of God. The fruit was varied, it was delicious, it was nourishing. The prohibition to eat from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil was evidence of the holiness of God and his absolute sovereignty, his right to put limits and boundaries to our freedoms. It is also more evidence of his love because He knew perfectly well what unleashing evil into the history of the world would do. Tragically, we all have an increasing sense of what happened. Eve was deceived by the serpent and was lured to eat from the forbidden fruit. She gave some to her silent and passive husband who was with her and who utterly failed to protect his wife, his unborn children, and the Garden of Eden, indeed the entire world from the devastating effects of the serpents lies. They both ate. Their eyes were open to their nakedness, they were stripped of the glory that they had been given by God and they began to hide from each other and from God. God confronted Adam and condemned him for his sin. They both came under instant spiritual death and would live the rest of their lives under a temporarily deferred but absolutely certain death penalty. As Thomas Cole depicted, the whole world fell into the dark curse of decay and death because of Adam's sin. Adam and Eve were expelled from the presence of God as Genesis 3, tells us. The Lord God banished him from the Garden of Eden to work the ground from which he had been taken. After He drove the man out, He placed on the east side of the garden of Eden cherubim and a flaming sword flashing back and forth to guard the way to the Tree of Life. II. Distant From God The infinite loss that day was to be driven not only from the beautiful Garden of Eden, but from the glorious presence of a loving and Holy God, distant from God. The Bible reveals that all of us are naturally distant from God because of our sin. Psalm 138:6 says, "Though the Lord is on high, he looks upon the lowly, but the proud he knows from afar." From afar. Also, Proverbs 15:29 says, “The Lord is far from the wicked.” This is relational language because we know the Bible teaches that God is omnipresent." It says in Acts 17, He is not far from each one of us, "For in him we live and move and have our being." But the Holy God is infinitely far from wickedness and evil corruption and sin from darkness itself. Habakkuk 1:13 says, "Your eyes are too pure to look on evil. You cannot tolerate wrong." Our text in Ephesians speaks of the immeasurable distance between us as unconverted people and this Holy God. Ephesians 2 says, "Remember that at that time you separate from Christ excluded from citizenship in Israel and foreigners to the covenants of the promise without hope and without God in the world." And it says in the next verse, "You who were once far away." A picture of this distance between a Holy God and a sinful people was established in the Tabernacle and then later the Temple of the Old Covenant. The lessons of the Old Covenant may be summed up in the first command that God gave to Moses at the burning bush. In Exodus 3:5 God said to him, "Do not come any closer. Do not come any closer." Then he said, "Take off your sandals for the place where you're standing is Holy ground." Again and again, the Holy God has been saying to sinful humanity, “do not come any closer.” Before He descended in fire on Mount Sinai, the Lord commanded Moses to erect a barrier, a fence line around the base of the Holy mountain so that no one could ascend that mountain because God would have to kill them. The Tabernacle represented God's desire to dwell in the midst of a sinful people, but it was made of curtains that represented barriers between a Holy God and a sinful people. We are not welcome, “this far you may come and no farther.” So as sinners, we were distant from God. "The Tabernacle represented God's desire to dwell in the midst of a sinful people, but it was made of curtains that represented barriers between a Holy God and a sinful people. We are not welcome, “this far you may come and no farther.” So as sinners, we were distant from God." III. Christ Has Drawn Near To Us Third, Christ has drawn near to us. Christ has drawn near to us. In the incarnation of Jesus Christ, this Holy God has drawn near to us. “Emanuel,” which we sang about this morning and again tonight means “God with us.” God gave his only-begotten Son a body with blood so that a doorway could be open into his presence by means of that body and that blood. The incarnation means “the Word became flesh” with a literal human body. But why? What was the reason? The reason was to bring sinners near to a Holy God by the blood and by the body of Jesus. Listen again to Ephesians 2:13, "But now in Christ Jesus, you who once were far away have been brought near through the blood of Christ." Again, Hebrews 10, "Therefore brothers, since we have confidence to enter the most Holy place by the blood of Jesus by a new and living way open for us through the curtain that is his body. And since we have a great priest over the house of God, let us draw near to God with a sincere heart and full assurance of faith, having our heart sprinkled to cleanse us from the guilty conscience and having our bodies washed with pure water." The incarnation means that God, the Son, took on a body with blood so that the death penalty we deserve for our sins could be paid in full. By the baby, wrapped in swaddling clothes and laid in the manger, we are brought near to a Holy God. IV. Christ Has Brought Us Near To God Christ, fourthly, has brought us near, so therefore, let us draw near. By faith in Christ we who were on the outside excluded, exiled, banished, cast out, evicted from the paradise of God's glorious presence by faith in the blood of Christ shed on the cross, we have been brought near. That is exactly what Ephesians 2:13 tells us. If you have trusted in Christ, you have been brought near positionally and for all eternity to God, one with Christ by faith in Christ, by faith. Speaking of nearness to God, Ephesians 2:13 tells us we have been brought near once for all into the presence of God, into the Holy of Holies, into the throne room of God, into a reconciled relationship with God. "By faith in Christ we who were on the outside excluded, exiled, banished, cast out, evicted from the paradise of God's glorious presence by faith in the blood of Christ shed on the cross, we have been brought near." But Hebrews 10, exhorts “Let us draw near to God.” So the one is positional and can never change. The other is experiential, relational by faith in Christ, drawing near to God in relational closeness, in a sense of intimacy with a loving God. So draw near brothers and sisters, let us draw near by faith. Let us have our bodies washed with the pure water of the Word. Let us have our hearts sprinkled from a guilty conscience. Sense that you are dearly loved. Draw near, draw near to a Holy God, draw near by Jesus's work, draw near by immersing your mind in Scripture as it testifies to Jesus. Draw near by prayer, confessing your sins with confidence of a perfect cleansing. Draw near by repentance and by the power of a changed life through the Holy Spirit. Draw near, the author to Hebrews tells us in full assurance of faith that God dearly loves you. He cannot love you more and will never love you less. Draw near now through the ordinance of the Lord's Supper, recognizing by faith, the body and the blood of Christ in these elements, symbolically, yes, but by faith recognizing that the incarnation came so that we who are far away might draw near. Close with me, this time of meditation in the Word with prayer, and then we'll turn to the Lord's Supper. Father, we thank you for the amazing truths of the Word of God. We can never plumb their deaths. We can never fully understand these themes. We can never fully understand what it meant to be expelled, to be exiled, to be aliens, to be distant from you and to fully understand in this world what it means now in Christ to be brought in here. Help us to understand these things by faith in your Word. And now as we have the opportunity to partake in the Lord's Supper, bless this time. In Jesus' name, Amen. We're going to partake in the Lord's Supper. We have an unusual way on Christmas Eve of celebrating it. These tables just set up and whereas ordinarily at the Lord's Supper, we send deacons out with the elements and pass them through the pews and you stay where you are. On Christmas Eve we invite you to draw near and to stand around the tables. And so what we do is we just have people come and stand and as the table is reasonably full, then we serve those people and then those folks go and sit down and the next group comes up. We would ask that only people who have testified, who have come to personal faith in Christ and testified to that by baptism, partake. If not, we ask that you refrain. But this is a time for us to enjoy the Lord's Supper. And so I'm going to read the words of institution and then we will celebrate in groups around the tables. Hear now what the Lord said, "For I receive from the Lord what I also passed on to you." The Lord Jesus on the night he was betrayed, took bread. And when he had given thanks, he broke it and said, "This is my body, which is for you, do this in remembrance of me." In the same way after supper, he took the cup saying, "This is the cup. This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this whenever you drink it in remembrance of me. For whenever you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord's death until he comes." Now, let us pray. Father, we thank you now for the opportunity that we have to draw near through the body and blood of Christ and to partake by faith in this symbolism of your life, of your death, and also of your resurrection. We pray that you'd bless it now and add the blessing by the power of the Spirit through faith in the Word. In Jesus' name, Amen.

Thomas Cole (1801-1848) was a Christian painter and the founder of the Hudson River School of landscape painting. His work is a testament to God's sacred touch in nature..When I paint the sky, I make it blue with a yellow sun..When Thomas Cole painted the sky, he made it endless with breezy clouds melting in the distanceand dancing, sparkling, playful sun raysstreaking and warming the balmy air..When I paint the ground, I make it green with flowers here and there..When Thomas Cole painted the ground, he tickled it with brambling grassthat had giggles of earthy colorson land that dipped and soared..When I paint a mountain, I make it brown in a triangular shape..When Thomas Cole painted mountains, he made them mighty with shadows and cracks,tangled weeds and rich shades of stone and rock..When I paint water, I make it blue with wavy edges..When Thomas Cole painted water, he made it shine, glowing and shimmering, lit from within..When I paint a tree, I make a brown trunk with a puffy green top..When Thomas Cole painted trees, he made them gracefulwith sweeping branches, strong and solid mixed with dainty and twiggy. They streeeeetch toward the skyor cradle meadows and pastures..After seeing how Thomas Cole painted nature in his art, I still paint the same as I always do..But, now I see art in nature. I see God's sacred touch..I see leaves falling and sprouts rising, sacrifice and new life..I see possibilities, growth, light, and infinite love.And I feel grateful for this wonderful world. • Kelly Bakshi.• Close your eyes and listen. Can you hear the air moving or birds singing? Can you feel the sunshine... or a breeze on your skin? Deeply breathe in, then exhale. What else do you notice about the creation around you? How do those created things point to the One who made them?.• Thomas Cole used his gift to rejoice in and honor God's power. How could you use your gifts to honor Jesus, the King and Creator of the universe? (Colossians 1:15-23) .In his hand are the depths of the earth, and the mountain peaks belong to him. The sea is his, for he made it, and his hands formed the dry land. Psalm 95:4-5 (NIV)

Welcome, Kyle DeCiccio-Carey to In-Focus Podcast Number 132! Kyle is the Library Director at the Millicent Library in Fairhaven, Massachusetts, and will be speaking with us about celebrated Fairhaven resident and painter Lemuel D. Eldred. This is the first of five, Fairhaven Cultural Council grant-supported podcasts with Kyle who will be telling us about some of the town's artists from days gone by. Lemuel Eldred is a great artist to begin this mini-series of podcasts! Lemuel was born and raised in Fairhaven, Massachusetts. The town shares the harbor with New Bedford. He was a marine painter and etcher and had studied with another outstanding Fairhaven painter, William Bradford, and for a short time, at the Academie Julian in Paris (1880). Eldred's work is typical of the late Hudson River School. He moved to Boston in 1876 to establish a studio. Lemuel Eldred was a sought-after and quite popular marine painter. He much enjoyed Bradford's Quaker beliefs and manner but did not join Bradford in his exploratory polar expeditions. His work may be seen in Fairhaven Town Hall, The Millicent Library, the Peabody Essex Museum in Salem, Massachusetts, the New Bedford Whaling Museum, and the Kendall Whaling Museum. The Artists Index Website Project features the In-Focus Podcasts – up close and personal conversations with the makers, performers, supporters, and cultural impresarios of this remarkable creative community. Each week, we feature a Visual, Performing, or Literary Artist who lives, works or is somehow connected to the South Coast of Massachusetts. We discuss their backgrounds, passions, and dreams.

Ancram Opera House presents INVASION! a satirical comedy by Jonas Hasse n Khemiri, translated by Rachel Willson-Broyles, and directed by Jeffrey Mousseau. All performances take place at AOH August 5 - 21, Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays at 8 pm, and Sundays at 3 pm. "INVASION! is a subversive satire that constantly upends expectations and calls into question how we inherently view one another based upon a person's name or skin color," Mousseau explained. "And with increasing violence and harmful rhetoric in public spaces arising in response to America's shifting demographics, the play is as urgent today as ever." INVASION!'s satirical comedy centers on a name: Abulkasem. What is introduced as an amorphous word of many meanings spirals and shape-shifts into a kaleidoscopic range of identities. Abulkasem is an uncle visiting from Lebanon, a renowned theater director, an asylum-seeking apple picker, the world's most dangerous terrorist. In a whirlwind of interconnected vignettes, we search for the answer. Who is Abulkasem? With biting comedy and multilayered storytelling, INVASION! confronts prejudices about identity, race, and language. The multinational company of actors, all making their Ancram debuts, are Ali Andre Ali, Abuzar Farrukh, Sophie Zmorrod Laruelle, and Ahmad Maher. Abuzar Farrukh is an actor, born and raised in Lahore, Pakistan. Abuzar is absolutely honored to be making his Ancram Opera House debut. Select credits: Disgraced (Chester Theatre Company), Refugee (Joakim Interfest, Serbia), Mitigating Damages (Castillo Theatre), Much Ado About Nothing (Brown Box Theatre Project). He holds a BA in Theatre from UMass Amherst, where he was the recipient of the Ed Golden Acting Award. The production team includes lighting designer Jess Elliott, costume designer Rashidah Nelson, scenic designer Sarah Edkins and sound designer Brendan Doyle, Hannah Schiffer wil stage Manage. INVASION! is underwritten by Gerry Fultz and Claudia Perles. Tickets are $40 each, available at www.ancramoperahouse.org or by calling (518) 329-0114 INVASION! is generously sponsored by Claudia Perles and Gerry Futz.

Inspired by the philosophies and techniques of the 19th century Hudson River School of artists, Ian's artistic vision is one of revival. He works to restore the classical landscape movement with a modern insight on preservation ethics and reverence for wild spaces. Ian's goal is not to create a perfect likeness of wild places, rather to communicate the unique feeling of time and place. More often than not, his creative process involves skiing, hiking, or biking to plein air painting locations across the American West.

Two landmarks to American art history sit on either side of the Rip Van Winkle Bridge over the Hudson River -- the homes of visionary artists Thomas Cole and Frederic Edwin Church.Cole and Church were leaders of the Hudson River School, a collective of 19th century American painters captivated by natural beauty and wide-open spaces. Many of these paintings, often of a massive size, depicted fantastic views of the Hudson River Valley where many of the artists lived.In this episode, the final part of the Bowery Boys podcast mini-series Road Trip to the Hudson Valley, Greg and Tom head up to the historic towns of Catskill and Hudson to celebrate a pioneering artist and his star pupil, two men who transformed the way we look at nature and revolutionized American art. They're joined on this show by Betsy Jacks on the Thomas Cole National Historic Site and Amy Hausmann and Dan Bigler of the Olana State Historic Site.For more information on the places we visited today, head over to the websites for the Thomas Cole National Historic Site and the Olana State Historic Site.

Thomas Cole was an early American artist who founded the Hudson River School of landscape art. Since this is a painter and Anchor now supports, video, this episode is a video presentation.
We answer many questions like, "what was the first album you ever bought" and "what happens when a sub 60 minute half double half marathoner sets his sights on a 50k" and "where is the best place in New England to view paintings from the Hudson River School". We also mention that Barkleys is going on but it will be over when this drops. But mostly we try to focus, but fail miserably on the upcoming Highlights Train Festival, so at least we provided a link and included it in the episode title with the usual click bait stuff.

Plein Air artist Crista Pisano is known for her tiny paintings and big personality. Tim and Jess ask Crista about her origins as a young ballerina, her job painting German Christmas ornaments, and her trademark yellow Jeep (which is really more of a butterscotch color).

She graduated from the Lyme Academy College of Fine Arts in 2000, receiving a Bachelors Degree of fine arts painting, and in 2003, received a Masters Degree of Fine arts Painting from the New York Academy Graduate School of Figurative Art. Crista paints landscapes mostly en plein air as well as in her studio in Nyack, NY, and is known for painting on a small scale. Influenced by the Hudson River School, she also loves the Macchiaioli, a group of Italian Painters active in Tuscany in the second half of the Nineteenth Century. Some of her favorite artists are George Inness, Jean-Baptiste Camille Corot, Martin Johnson Heade, and Edward Lear.

Vin Tabone is the New York film producer of a PBS-aired, two-part documentary on The Hudson River School: a genre of dramatic, mid-19th century landscape paintings depicting the grandeur & the divine in America's wildernesses. We learn about: the main artists in the movement starting with founder Thomas Cole; the reception from New York City critics; their adventuresome travels to jungles, icebergs, Europe & the Wild West; their use of reoccurring symbols such as storm clouds & tree stumps; and the moral & religious messages they strived to convey. Vin shares fond memories of his childhood on the Hudson, seeing the paintings for the first time, & trips to the unspoiled locations. For story time, he reads "The Bewilderment" from Thomas Cole's journal: a blind & dizzying account of being lost in a stormy, black forest. The last section takes a mystery-provoking sharp turn into a handful of Vin's uncanny & paranormal experiences, adding ever more wonderment to the Our Numinous Nature canon.

Right now there is a powerful, highly ambitious, and deeply relevant art show in New York that weaves together the histories of conservation and American art in a way most people haven't seen before. It's a quick jag from the city across the Rip Van Winkle Bridge into Catskill, New York, but light years away from the bustling metropolis, where on either side of the river are the historic homes of the famed Hudson River School painters Thomas Cole and Frederic Church in New York's Hudson River Skywalk Region. Inside those homes—the Thomas Cole National Historic Site and Olana State Historic Site—sprawls the show titled "Cross-pollination: Head, Cole, Church, and Our Contemporary Moment," with art that spans the mid-19th century to today, the exhibition is built around a suite of 16 bravura paintings of hummingbirds titled "The Gems of Brazil" by the little known Hudson River School artists, Martin Johnson Heade, and it takes flight from there exploring a network of interconnections between art, science, and the natural world. It also provides rich insight into the story of the relationships at the heart of the show between Heade, Thomas Cole, and Frederic Church, three of the greatest visionary artists America has ever known. This week on the podcast, Andrew Goldstein is joined by Thomas Cole National Historic Site curator Kate Menconeri to discuss how these historic artists first began thinking about ideas of conservation and preservation, and how contemporary artists have taken up the mantle to encourage a new generation not only to appreciate nature, but how to give back what for years we've been taking from it.

Olana and the Thomas Cole National Historic Site are collaborating on a major national exhibition, titled "Cross Pollination: Heade, Cole, Church, and Our Contemporary Moment." It addresses the continuing influence of the Hudson Valley on American art and the cross pollination that is taking place across centuries. It stems from Martin Johnson Heade's unprecedented series of hummingbird and habitat paintings, The Gems of Brazil (1863-64), and explores their unique relationship to the epic landscapes of Hudson River School artists Thomas Cole and Frederic Church, and their continued relevance to artists working today. For more, we welcome curators Kate Menconari from the Thomas Cole Site, Will Coleman from Olana and Mindy Besaw from the Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art in Bentonville, Arkansas.
There is nothing new under the sun as they say and the the the "they" are sometimes the "we". Banksy made moves again. Banksy's homage to artist (Albert Bierstadt) ‘rallied against the industrial revolution's destruction of nature' goes at auction following concerns about its depicted subject. To create “Subject to Availability,” Banksy “hijacked” an 1890 painting by artist Albert Bierstadt, said a Christie's spokesperson. Though Bierstadt, a German American painter, lived in New York, he frequently visited — and painted — the American West during his lifetime. Bierstadt was a fitting conceptual reference for Banksy's reckoning with climate change. As a spokesperson for Christie's explained, Bierstadt was a member of the Hudson River School, a group of painters who “railed against the industrial revolution's destruction of nature.” Banksy built upon that commentary by adding an asterisk and a tiny bit of corporate-speak to the painting's bottom right-hand corner: “*Subject to availability for a limited period only.” OTHER STUFF TOO.....

In this Podcast, Stefan Baumann talks with his students about painting from your Imagination verses painting from a photograph. When painting from a photograph the artist is limmited by what is on it rarley adding anything to it that would depict the human emagination. We as humans love a story to bring us out of our every day life. Like children the more we put into it, or what I like to call it "PMI" the more we love the story. Painting from your Imagination brings the viewer to a different level of seeing, one that is from the heart and not from the eye.Stefan Baumann Artist of The Grand View PBS Television series discusses the importance of sharing your work with the public.

On today’s episode of the B&H Photography Podcast, we revisit our conversation with Stephen and Bette Wilkes in honor of the release of Wilkes’s great new book Day to Night, and the accompanying gallery show at the Bryce Wolkowitz gallery, in New York. We also spend a bit of time reflecting on a few of the legendary photographers who have died recently. The Day to Night series that Stephen Wilkes has been working on for ten years has received much-deserved attention and has grown from its New York roots to encompass locations in Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and Africa. These photographs, which capture a full 24-hour cycle in one frame, are awe-inspiring when viewed as a whole; fascinating when analyzed in detail; and monumental when considered as a production. On today’s episode of the B&H Photography Podcast, we speak with Stephen Wilkes and Bette Wilkes—his wife, business manager, and the behind-the-scenes producer of these incredible photographs. Our conversation is easygoing and bounces back and forth between Mr. and Ms. Wilkes, emphasizing their intertwined working relationship. With Mr. Wilkes, we speak of the genesis of the project and the influences he finds in the paintings of the Dutch Masters and the Hudson River School. We also discuss his process, which is physically and technically demanding. He speaks of a desire to “get lost” in the moment and ultimately how his images are “a representation of his memory” from the day and place. With Ms. Wilkes, we speak of the knotty and time-consuming process of arranging a shoot that will last more than twenty-four continuous hours in some of the world’s busiest and most desolate locations. We discuss many photographs, but concentrate on two images from the Day to Night series to highlight their complicated productions—the first is a photograph of New York City’s Flatiron Building and, in the second half of the show, we visit a watering hole in the Serengeti Plain. To see these images, please visit our website, and, if you are in New York prior to October 26, 2019, check out the Day to Night exhibit at Bryce Wolkowitz Gallery.

The Thomas Cole House is a National Historic site found between the Hudson River and the Catskill Mountains. The entire landscape embodies the vibrant style and presence of painter Thomas Cole, a major 19th-century English American voice and founder of the Hudson River School, and the site has recently embraced digitization and projection mapping from Second Story to breathe new life into the work for a new generation. The Thomas Cole home is split into two parlors. The East parlor now greets visitors with a large-scale projection presentation in which guests have an opportunity to experience all of Cole's work. In the West parlor, each guest is able to inhabit the space in Thomas Cole himself would host houseguests and discuss his creations. On this episode, Second Story's Technical Director Matt Arnold joins us to share how their team curated the projections within the Thomas Cole House and tastefully hid the technology in order to showcase the value of the paintings themselves. The project won Second Story a Bronze APEX Award at Digital Signage Expo 2019. For more case study information about project, click here.

I caught up with Scott Croft, Vice President Public Affairs at BoatUS, after he spent some time on the road assisting with BoatUS teams in Hurricane damaged Florida. When he is not out in the field, Scott is Responsible for all external publicity and media relations for the half-million member boating services, advocacy and safety organization. Duties cover all BoatUS departments, including Government Affairs, Consumer Affairs, Towing Services, Insurance as well as the BoatUS Foundation for Safety and Clean water. Scott learned to boat and ski on the great lakes as a youth and later in life spent 10 years in the US Air Force, which is where his love of boating was resurrected on the coast of Japan. After that Scott worked with some exciting travel and tourism clients like New York City, Puerto Rico, and Jamaica before his passion for boating delivered him to his current role at BoatUS. Scott and I discussed how he got into and re-entered the boating lifestyle, the variety of benefits BoatUS provides boaters, current issues that are important to boaters on capitol hill, the importance of boat insurance and more! Enjoy! On getting started in boating…..My grandad had a ski boat on Lake Erie when I was in my single digits. He got me up skiing. Then I got out of it for a while when I wasn’t near any water. I picked it up again when I went into the military. I was in the Air Force stationed in Japan and I had at my leisure a fleet of Yamaha 13 sailboats. It lit my passion again. On sailing in Japan…..I was in Okinawa. It’s ringed by coral so you had these reefs just a few hundred yards out or potentially several miles out and you’d sail from shore out to the reef and back. It was unbelievably clear, warm water, like something out of Jacques Cousteau. On learning to ski…..I remember getting pulled up many times and swallowing many gallons of Lake Erie water. We started knee-boarding and that progressed to two skis and it took me a couple summers to drop a ski. I always felt I would lose sight of where we would drop the ski but we always found it. On his current boating whereabouts…..I’m on the sail side now. I’m on the Hudson River. We have a wide expanse called the Tappan Zee and it’s spectacular. There’s 300, 400 foot cliffs on one side. If you’ve ever heard of the Hudson River School of painting, that still exists today. When I go out on the water I see these magnificent sunsets and majestic mountains, it just puts me in the right place. On coming together after the hurricanes…..I gotta tell you something about the human spirit. We were down there salvaging vessels. Every day we got to go home to our air conditioned hotel, these folks didn’t. But they’d come up to us with cold water and say ‘do you want a cold water?’ Neighbors were helping neighbors start to clean up. People were helping to push boats out of people’s front yards and driveways, it was heartening to see. On the importance of boat insurance…..I looked at this hurricane event as an educational moment for people to ask themselves what's in their policy. Boat insurance is unlike automobile or homeowners. It’s a lot less regimented and what features that you have in your policy can vary significantly. People either insure their boat with a policy that covers everything, that includes liability coverage. The second way is a liability portion only. It doesn’t pay for damage to fix your boat, only damage to others. The last way is they self-insure. They decide they don’t wish to have a policy and if it’s a total loss they can eat that loss. The only reason you have to have insurance is if your lender requires it or if you physically want that policy. I told people after Irma, even if you don’t have full hull coverage its really smart to get a liability only policy because it’s really affordable and it covers a lot. On why he loves boating…..Boating is in my heart. I live and breathe boating, it’s something I believe in - keeping the family together with all the things that compete for your time like technology and sports. Today boating still keeps the family together. On his favorite boating destination…..It’s going to sound crazy but Lake George has been at the top of my list pretty much my whole life. There used to be a bunch of boats at the south end of the lake and a marina there that rented boats. I talked my mom when I was 14 or 15 into signing on the dotted line and going out for an hour or two. Of all the places I’ve been in the world I still like the Adirondacks, I like Lake George, it’s the closest to my heart. On the benefits of BoatUS membership…..We are the nation’s largest advocacy services and safety group. The first part of our triad is looking out for the recreational boater’s interests. Whether that’s an advocacy issue or something going on in a state or federal level. The services we offer, of course, are insurance and on the water towing. We’re the largest on the water towing outift in the country with TowBoatUS. We have over 600 red tow boats at 300 locations so if you are going to break down on the water, and it’s a question of when not if, we’ve got your back. The BoatUS membership offers a lot of discounts on things like marina slips and fuel discounts. We have over 1,000 partner businesses and 600-700 of them are marinas. We also can’t forget BoatUS Magazine and to me that’s one of the biggest benefits. It simply gives you the best information to make your boating better. On what causes people to need their services…..The number one reason why 70,000 people called us last year for routine on the water help was engine trouble and part of that is unknown. Number two is battery issues. Its engine issues, electric issues, battery jumps and running out of gas in that order. It will happen and its really easy to get an on the water towing plan. Very much like a AAA for the water, we’ll come get you 24 hours a day. What we do is make a bad day go a lot better. On current advocacy efforts…..BoatUS is the only representative up on the hill representing recreational boaters. We try to make sure that when you go out on the water that day its as hassle free as possible. Ethanol is a big issue. There’s a movement that requires an increasing amount of ethanol in relation o our fuel supply. We have big challenges with that. Ethanol is scouring tanks and causing fuel related issues and that is still the #1 national issue with us. We’re not anti-farmer or anti-biofuels, we just want safe fuel for our boats. Coast Guard funding is a big thing right now on Capitol Hill. We have to ensure the things we need like the weather that NOAA provides or the rescue services are not cut. This is a game of numbers. Those with the most voices often get the attention they need. We want to create the largest advocacy group in the country. Join BoatUS and become part of that advocacy effort. Sign up for our email alerts that let you know about legislation going on in your state that will affect your boating. There is so much more useful information in this interview so give a listen and let us know what you think!

F-Stop Collaborate and Listen - A Landscape Photography Podcast
Episode 017 with Washington-based landscape photographer, Candace Dyar. When Candace agreed to be on the podcast, I was quite excited! I've been following her amazing work for years and could not wait to have a conversation with her. Candace was born and raised in Ohio and has had an intense love for the natural world. As a young adult, Candace grew a fondness for the fine arts and went on to attain a degree in Art History. The Hudson River School, and great landscape painter Albert Bierstadt inspired her and she was also drawn to the highly imaginative, dream-like atmospheres from Surrealist artists such as Giorgio de Chirico and Salvador Dali. Her artistic background significantly contributes to her vision as a photographer and it is a goal of hers to portray a “painterly” type of style within her work. Based in Washington State for over a decade, Candace first discovered her passion for photography while venturing out in the wilderness of the Pacific Northwest. An avid hiker, she constantly yearns to explore new areas while also hoping to provide a unique vision through her photography, and is passionate about photographing the diversity of wilderness areas in their entirety. Her goal as a photographer is to reach viewers on an emotional level, while also spreading awareness of the necessity and vitality of the natural and last true wild places that many either take for granted or might never experience at all. We covered some really great topics, including conservation, connection to the landscape as a photographer, how photography is a therapeutic tool, what it is like to be a woman landscape photographer, and more. I know you'll enjoy this one. As usual, please find some links to various topics we covered below: The photography of Iron Tazz Scaggs Yankee Boy Basin Candace's work can be found on: Facebook Her website Instagram Here's some examples of her amazing photography.

Brian met up with Peter Demos at Journal Gallery to discuss all things painting. His show 'Horizon' set up the backdrop to a chat about painting, minimal electronic music and even a return to the Hudson River School.
Art Historian Peter Mooz discusses his new book “Religion in American Painting.” Although artists after the Renaissance gravitated to more secular themes, Dr. Mooz explains that American painters have been painting religion from the time of the first documented American painting in 1663 to today. Dr. Mooz explores the ways 19th-century artists like Thomas Cole, who founded the Hudson River School of painting, pursued religious themes of transcendentalism, and explains the religious symbols in the abstract-expressionist work of Mark Rothko.
Politics in Art? Although we might think that creative types get along, in the late nineteenth century a battle was taking place between the members of the Hudson River School and Impressionists to gain the public’s interest and reap financial rewards. Curator of American Art, Dr. Kevin Murphy, explains the dynamic conflict between artists and cultural elites in the Gilded Age through William Merritt Chase’s reverential portrait of Worthington Whittredge.
How have our perspectives changed towards nature? Horticulturist Cody George and Director of Education Niki Stewart discuss how perspectives on nature have shifted, from the Hudson River School of painting to a twenty-first-century interpretation in Roxy Paine’s outdoor sculpture, Yield.
National Gallery of Australia | Audio Tour | Turner to Monet: the triumph of landscape
Three bands make up the painting: a blue sky, pink and grey clouds, the green meadow. A tree at left frames the composition, the central haystack provides a point of focus, a few animals add extra interest, and some exquisite reflections persuade us of the artist’s painterly skills. If we were to follow the thin, flat bayou meandering through the marshland, where would it take us? The distant hills have none of the grandeur or drama expected of landscapes at this period. Even the hand of the artist seems peculiarly absent. We are left with a haystack at the centre of the painting which, on closer examination, is a rather strangely shaped mound. Where, exactly, are we? Marshlands – at the mouth of the Parker River in Ipswich, Massachusetts, or Hoboken in New Jersey, or Southport, Connecticut – held a great fascination for Heade; he produced more than a hundred paintings of the subject. These canvases have various descriptive titles: passing or approaching storms, sudden shower, after the rain, sunrise, sun breaking through, after the rain. Our attention is drawn to the natural forces and meteorological phenomena that shape these environments. Clearly, it was the changing atmospheric conditions and variations in light that attracted the artist. Is this what fascinates us still? Heade began painting salt marshes in about 1858 and continued to paint them for more than four decades, in pairs, thematic groups, or as long series. He worked on marshland subjects intermittently, alternating them with Romantic mountain, tropical, southern or northern landscapes.1 At times, for variety, Heade included duck hunters or their hutches, hayricks or covered haystacks in his marsh scenes – he even created still-life paintings of marsh canvases propped up on trestles.2 Despite all these variants, even with staffage, the best of Heade’s paintings are characterised by a mysterious emptiness. Just as a marsh is a transitional zone between land and water, Heade’s Luminist paintings sit slightly apart from those of the Hudson River School. Like many of his contemporaries, Heade travelled widely: in his early twenties he spent two years in Rome, travelled in Brazil from 1863 to 1864 and his life in the United States was peripatetic. Sunlight and shadow, the Newbury Marshes encapsulates both major European aesthetic traditions: idyllic, light-filled scenes or intense, northern specificity. Looking at Heade’s marsh paintings, those who value stillness may be think of Friedrich’s The Great Preserve c. 1832. Conditions of light in both paintings – twilight in Friedrich’s, the combination of sunlight and shadow in Heade’s – liberate colour from naturalism, contributing an intriguing violet tinge to each scene. Both artists use unnatural colour palettes, and only a few motifs. But like composers, they obtain seemingly endless variations from these notes. In Sunlight and shadow, the Newbury Marshes, Heade makes the ordinary exotic. Lurid colours give the painting a hallucinatory quality, the solitary haystack takes on mystical power, and the deceptive simplicity of the scene makes it seem hyper-real. Here the Sublime verges on the transcendental. Lucina Ward 1 Heade and Church were close friends – Church passed his studio, in a 10th St New York, to Heade – and Church also encouraged his interest in South America. 2 See Gremlin in Studio II c. 1871–75, Wadsworth Atheneum, Hartford; for this and others, see Theodore E. Stebbins et al., The life and work of Martin Johnson Heade: a critical analysis and catalogue raisonné, New Haven: Yale University Press, 2000.
