  • Keeping Up Appearances: A Lacanian Perspective on American Mythmaking in Augustus Saint-Gaudens’ 'The Puritan' (1886)

    Descripción/Resumen:
    Beneath the severe bronze of Saint-Gaudens' 'The Puritan' (1886) lies a fracture in an American myth. This paper reads the statue through the Lacanian concept of the Name-of-the-Father, revealing a national fantasy subtly unraveling at its seams. What at first conveys ancestral virtue is exposed as a compensatory myth-- an Imaginary projection built atop repression. Through patronage, iconography, and psychoanalysis, this study brings to light the scaffolding of Gilded Age mythmaking.

  • Saints and Sons: Painting Power, Piety, and the Performance of Nobility in Zurbarán’s Saint Peter Nolasco Recovering the Image of the Virgin of El Puig.

    Descripción/Resumen:
    The young boy in Francisco de Zurbarán’s (1598-1664) Saint Peter Nolasco Recovering the Image of the Virgin of El Puig (1630) has been suggested to be either Zurbarán’s son, Juan de Zurbarán (1620–1649), or the son of James I of Aragon, Alfonso of Castile (1229–1260). Despite visual dominance, most scholars do not address the boy, and those who do offer conflicting identifications. This paper bridges the gap between these varying opinions, and concretely identifies the most formally important figure in this commission that defined Zurbarán’s career. The argument is built on the writings of Zurbarán scholar Martin S. Soria, as well as a comparison to Zurbarán’s body of work at large, primarily his tendency to create from life, and his suspected self-portrait, The Crucified Christ with a Painter (1650). I conclude that the child in the piece is likely a culmination of Juan and Alfonso and explore the implication of Zurbarán depicting his child in the noble and pious role of James the Conqueror’s son, paying witness to the rediscovery of the Virgin of El Puig. The combined figure of Juan and Alfonso gains significance through an exploration of historical context surrounding the legend of the Virgin of El Puig and its key figures. By drawing parallels between 17th-century Spanish colonialism contemporary to Zurbarán’s time and 13th-century Reconquista depicted in the painting, Zurbarán uses this composite figure to assert a vision of his lineage as triumphant and divinely favoured. Ultimately, this paper continues and expands upon Soria’s writings on the subject, and places Zurbarán within a Baroque tradition of artists, such as Velázquez, who used painting to assert their profession as divinely-inspired, nobel, and distinct from craftsmen.

  • The Art of Unveiling: DeCamp’s Nude as a Sculptural Study

    Descripción/Resumen:
    While DeCamps "Woman Drying Her Hair (1898)" may appear at first glance to be a conventional nude, its composition, technique, and context suggest that DeCamp intended it as a deep investigation into form and style- a study rather than a narrative work. Through his study in Europe like Munich, Germany and mentorship provided by Frank Duveneck, DeCamp refined his ability to portray the figure in a way that was both perpetually rigorous and resonant to anatomical paintings in America.

    Descripción/Resumen:
    Ohio currently has 2 extinct, 5 extirpated, 5 threatened, and 10 endangered bird species. 36% of the birds on the lists call the prairie landscape home. In the 1700s Ohio had over 1,000,000 acres of prairies, today it is less than 10% of it. This project inspires and teaches people to bring prairies back into the modern landscape and bring nature back into these areas where they have been pushed out.

    Descripción/Resumen:
    The way plants have been utilized in interior spaces has shifted from stand-alone houseplants to incorporating them within functional aspects of the home. This can be seen in interior green walls and indoor gardening. This project expands how green design can be incorporated within home decor items that maintain functionality and promote interaction with natural elements to promote mental well-being. Proximity to the proposed plants has been proven to promote psychological well-being.
