Artists' Things: A Conversation about Everyday Objects and the Paris Art World
This event occurred on May 30, 2024.
Artists are makers of things. Yet it is a measure of the disembodied manner in which we generally think about artists that we rarely consider the everyday items they own. Katie Scott and Hannah William's innovative book, Artists' Things: Rediscovering Lost Property from Eighteenth-Century France, looks at objects that once belonged to artists, to reveal not only the fabric of the 18th-century art world in France but also unfamiliar-and sometimes unexpected-insights into the individuals who populated it.
In this virtual book launch, the authors presented object case studies that allow them to engage with fundamental historical debates about production, consumption, and sociability through the lens of material goods owned by artists.
They are joined by curators David Pullins and Marie-Laure Buku Pongo as well as the Getty Research Institute's Nancy Um for a conversation about their methodological approach to material histories; the collection, display, and provenance of artists' objects in museums; and the book's digital open-access publication platform.
Katie Scott is professor emeritus at the Courtauld Institute of Art, London. Her current interests focus on questions of ornament, technology, and the city in the field of early modern French art and architecture.
Hannah Williams is senior lecturer in the School of History at Queen Mary University of London. She is an art historian specializing in French art, material culture, and artistic communities in the long 18th century.
David Pullins is associate curator at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, where he is responsible for 17th- and 18th-century French, Italian, and Spanish painting. The Getty Research Institute will publish his book, The Mobile Image from Watteau to Boucher, in summer 2024.
Marie-Laure Buku Pongo is assistant curator of decorative arts at the Frick Collection, where she oversees the institution's collection of furniture, ceramics, textiles, enamels, clocks, and other objects. She previously held positions at the Palace of Versailles, Mobilier National, Élysée Palace, and the French government.
Nancy Um is associate director for Research and Knowledge Creation at the Getty Research Institute. She has published studies about trade, art, diplomacy, and gift exchange around the early modern Indian Ocean rim.

    Thank you, Mr. McIlwee! We wanted to drive by the house but missed it and got turned around. Pulled onto a street to figure out where we were. Looked around for a street sign and then up through our sunroof -- and there it was! From the back was a great view! Thank you for taking care of such a wonderful piece of art!

It isn't just the U.S. government that is responsible it is MAINLY the non elected "CITIZENS" of this country that bare the main responsibility with we Turtle Island people individually and collectively in ensuring that treaties are adhered to and reparations are settled for the THEFT of our land bases.

    Just one look at the Grolier Codex and I can tell you it was fake. The art does not come close to what is contained within the Dresden Codex. All of this examination of the colors and pigments is not necessary. The Dresden codex's art, although it appears to have borders that would suggest a geometric compliance to what we would call a "frame". I can tell you NONE of the lines are actually straight. This "un-straight line" drawing by the artist is intentional. Trace the lines with your eyes. On every page of The Dresden Codex, you will see that even the most obvious lines that appear to be straight, are not straight, as at the end of the lines (or the beginning of them) they "tail off" like that of which a brush would do. The lines of every mark made on every page start off wide and then narrow or vice-versa. Some lines might start out narrow, widen, then narrow again. There are no straight lines in the Dresden Codex as there are none in nature. An example of the appearance of an adherence to a geometric framing is The American Dollar. The one with George Washington on it. Look at the frame of the dollar. It's off-center. The edges of the dollar are not even. Not centered. That is intentional. Not to discourage counterfeiting, because it is more appealing to our eyes. When you watch a movie in a 16:9 aspect ratio, the focus of the shot is NEVER directly in the middle, as our eyes are not set in the middle of our head. You have a dominant eye. Look at a red dot on a piece of paper from about 8 inches away. Now close one eye. Now open both eyes. Now close your other eye. Did the dot move? If yes, your eye that was closed is your dominant eye. If it doesn't move, then the eye that was open is your dominant eye. The world is viewed from 5 different ways. Straight ahead, and from 4 different angles. Above, below, left and right. You can view each "shot" 5 different ways, 4 times, as you can turn the "shot" 90 degrees 4 times. So there's 20 different ways to view any object. This perception is used to produce the "contour rivalry" we see in Mayan srt-pieces. None of these "archeologists" are interested in revealing any truth to the public. They stand in the way of our understanding our world and lead us astray. That, is also, intentional.Not because they know, but because they will never undertand, and do not want anyone else to either... because they FEAR losing control of our minds that feed their parasitic ego. Visual constraints ... Arrested Perception... Unimaginative Joykillers... that can only laugh at a child getting their hand caught in the car door.

    Not much was said about first printed books in Dunhuang caves or " Mogao " caves- caves of the Magical people. China claimed that in 868 AD Chinese translation of the " Diamond Sutra"" was printed with use of engraved wooden blocks and it was done first time in the World. Nothing is said about translations on other languages also printed at the same time. In 868 AD Dunhuang was controlled by local Chinese Cao Dynasty that lost all connections with weakened Tang Empire.. In 848 AD Dunhuang was taken under protection of Uyghur Ganzhou Kingdom ( 848-1036), founded by Yaghlaqar branch of refugees from Uyghur Khaganate after 840, who repelled Tibetans from the area that was under Tibetan control almost a century. That Uyghurs were originally Manichaenians, but were actively converted to Buddhism in Gansu. In 866 Dunhuang was also claimed by Qocho Uyghurs (866--1389), who came from Orkhon Valley under leadership of Pan Tegin, who had blood of one of Tang princesses, given in marriage to Uyghur Khagans, and who quickly took control over all old Tang Empire outposts in Tarim Basin and also repelled all Tibetans from the area. Both newly-formed Uyghur states gave protection to Buddhism and books printed in Turpan in X century with use of movable engraved wooden plates on Uyghur script were all translations from Buddhist texts. German expeditions to Turpan in the beginning of XX century took these books to Berlin but, unfortunately, they all were burnt out in January 1945 during WWII.
