A mineral chart in the George Catlin Papers manifests the artist’s novel ethnogeological approach to depicting pipestone, a blood-red stone quarried on Dakota homelands. Catlin ignored Indigenous protocol to procure and popularize the sacred stone in ethnographic paintings and displays. This essay examines the Indigenous knowledge behind Catlin’s claimed “discovery” of pipestone in the context of Indigenous land dispossession.

The recent addition of materials to the Archives of American Art’s Worden Day Papers enlivens study of this fascinating artist’s life. Methodologically, this case study also addresses the challenge of researching American women modernists who lack significant archives.

This essay reconstructs the story of the Archives of Maine Art, from its founding at Colby College in 1961 to its rediscovery by the author in 2015. It asks how this regional archive went from being instrumental to a major exhibition at the Whitney Museum of American Art and the talk of the national arts scene to occupying the dustbin of history. By reading the Archives of Maine Art in relation to the history of the Archives of American Art, Sheehan reveals the work that regional histories performed in the mid-twentieth century and reflects on their critical revaluation in the late-twentieth century. She calls for an enlightened regionalism that embraces the transnational and global dimensions of the term “region” and repositions it as central to American art history’s current, outward-looking state.
本文重建了缅因州艺术档案馆的故事,从1961年在科尔比学院成立到2015年被作者重新发现。它问的是,这个地区性档案是如何从一个重要的工具变成了惠特尼美国艺术博物馆(Whitney Museum of American Art)的一个大型展览,以及国家艺术场景的讨论,到占据历史垃圾箱的。通过阅读缅因州艺术档案与美国艺术档案历史的关系,Sheehan揭示了20世纪中期地区历史的工作,并反思了他们在20世纪后期的批判性重新评估。她呼吁一种开明的地区主义,拥抱“地区”一词的跨国和全球维度,并将其重新定位为美国艺术史当前外向型状态的核心。

Robert Smithson’s text “The Monument” (ca. 1967) is an outline for an unrealized film, tracing the production and exhibition of his first Nonsite work. It reveals that archival material was an active element in Smithson’s practice, a material presence traversing archive and oeuvre, mirroring his theory of Site and Nonsite.

This text considers the productive yet puzzling relay between Louise Nevelson’s art and her use of titles. Do her titles secure meanings, or do they ultimately generate ambiguity? I propose that Nevelson’s working process is illuminated by a close investigation of her practice of titling, which demonstrates the same logic of seriality as her sculptures.
