“Two

Nora
Speyer, painter / Joe Stefanelli, painter |
| |
|
|

The
Artists’ Club and the Cedar Bar provided a rich haven
of unforgettable experiences for the many artists who
gathered there during the 40s and 50s including both Stefanelli
and Speyer. Stefanelli states, “ I learned more about
making art at the Cedar Bar than in all my years in art
school.” Speyer reports, “We would start out at the Artists’
Club on a Friday night and when that closed Sideo and
I would then head over to the Cedar Bar. Until early hours
of the morning everyone danced and fought like cats and
dogs, we had a ball”. |

“Act
of Creation” |
| Speaker |
|
|
|
Stephen Schlesinger,
author and director of the New School University’s World
Policy Institute, |
| |
|
|
|
Schlesinger
will talk about his most recent book, “Act of Creation
: The Founding of the United Nations. A Story of Superpowers,
Secret Agents, Wartime Allies and Enemies, and Their Quest
for a Peaceful World”, Westview Press, 2003. Steven Schlesinger
tells a pivotal and little-known story of how Secretary
of State Edward Stettinius and the new American President,
Harry Truman, picked up the pieces of the shattered campaign
initiated by Franklin Roosevelt to create a "United Nations."
Using secret agents, financial resources, and their unrivaled
position of power, they overcame the intrigues of Stalin,
the reservations of wartime allies like Winston Churchill,
the discontent of smaller states, and a skeptical press
corps to found the United Nations. The author reveals
how the UN nearly collapsed several times during the conference
over questions of which states should have power, who
should be admitted, and how authority should be divided
among its branches. By shedding new light on leading participants
like John Foster Dulles, John F. Kennedy, Adlai Stevenson,
Nelson Rockefeller, and E. B White, Act of Creation provides
a fascinating tale of twentieth-century history not to
be missed. |

“The
New York Art World in the Mid 1940s As Seen By Two Very
Yound Painters: Paul Resika and David Loeffler Smith”
|
| Speakers |
|
|
|
Paul
Resika, painter/ David Loeffler Smith, painter |
| |
|
|
|
A
high School friendship leads to afternoons in the galleries
and museums at this extraordinary time for American art.
Paul Resika was studying with Hans Hofmann and David Smith,
son of the painter, Jacob Getlar Smith, grew up among
New York artists. Recent inquiries concerning Peggy Guggenheim’s
gallery, “Art of This Century” suggests their memories
would be of interest to others. |

“James
Gahagan” |
| Speakers |
|
|
|
Bob Henry,
painter / Kathy Shorr, writer |
| |
|
|
|
Following
in Hofmann’s footsteps, Gahagan, 1927 –1999, was an accomplished
painter, a beloved teacher and mentor to others. Inspired
by nature, his sensitivity to color relationships and
spatial dynamics made him one of the most skillful American
colorists. He attended the Hans Hofmann School of Art
and became involved with the then-burgeoning abstract
movement. His visual vocabulary developed during his years
as Associate Director of the Hofmann School and as Hofmann's
assistant during the creation of two major mosaic murals
in New York City. His work has been exhibited extensively
in New York, Provincetown, San Francisco, Los Angeles,
Paris and is represented in the public collections of
the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York; The Chrysler
Museum in Norfolk, Virginia; and the University Art Museum
in Berkeley. |
