Wyeth and His Grandson, exhibition poster Signed lower right by Jamie Wyeth. A Legacy, Terra Museum of American Art, Chicago. Biography from the Archives of askART: The following is from The New York Times online edition, 1/25/2001: N.C. Wyeth (1882-1945), America's greatest illustrator as well as an accomplished easel painter, dedicated his career to depicting American subjects in a fresh, energetic manner uninfluenced by European art - "true, solid American subjects - nothing foreign about them," as he put it in 1903. Reflecting times in which unconditional loyalty to country was taken for granted and the American flag was a sacred symbol of freedom, N.C. executed works that encapsulated those very American qualities. As television anchorman Tom Brokaw points out in his catalogue essay, the patriarch of the Wyeth clan "was a man of the first half of the century, roughly from Theodore Roosevelt to Franklin Delano Roosevelt, when Americans seemed to be framed in red, white and blue bunting and the background music was "Yankee Doodle Dandy" or Kate Smith singing "God Bless America". N.C.'s lifelong veneration for America's historical traditions, growing out of his New England heritage and strengthened by his Chadds Ford residency in the history-rich Brandywine Valley, manifested itself in idealized, heroic images of such larger-than-life personalities as Paul Revere, George Washington, Nathan Hale, Thomas Jefferson, John Paul Jones and Abraham Lincoln. He painted stalwart views of Stonewall Jackson and Ulysses S. Grant and action-packed renditions of Civil War combat, suggesting valor and patriotism on both sides. Commissioned by the government during World War I to create recruiting and propaganda posters, Wyeth had an output that ranged from images of brave doughboys helping their wounded mates, in "WWI Poster" (1918), to dramatic paintings of terrified Huns surrendering to gun-toting American infantrymen in Kamerad! (1919). Along with other Americans, N.C. was horrified by stories of atrocities committed by the German Army. He responded with vivid, impassioned images, such as "The Abdication of Attila" (1917), done for Life magazine, that suggested that Kaiser Wilhelm had outstripped the infamous Attila the Hun as the epitome of "supreme evil" and the "arch-tyrant" of history. Pondering an offer from the War Department to become an official artist at the Western Front, Wyeth remarked, "I wouldn't mind a crack at a Boche or two, and would be tickled to death if I could disembowel their divine leader...." Responding with equal patriotic fervor to the challenge of World War II, Wyeth underscored the determination of Uncle Sam and our citizen army in Amateurs at War: The American Soldier in Action (1943) and the heroism of GIs in the Pacific in Marines Landing on the Beach (1944). He recognized the contributions of farmers to the Allied effort in Soldiers of the Soil (1942), an illustration for a Brown and Bigelow calendar, and in another calendar work, Our Emblem (1944), reflected the symbolism of the American eagle protecting a tranquil New England hamlet. Wyeth's colorful Buy War Bonds (1942), featuring an assertive Uncle Sam clutching Old Glory and urging on planes overhead and infantrymen on the ground, helped the Treasury Department sell a lot of bonds to back the war effort. One poster sold $200,000 worth of bonds, while another took in $1 million, according to Wyeth biographer David Michaelis. In a tempera-on-panel, The War Letter (1941) he depicted his parents on the bucolic grounds of their home in Needham, Mass. As his mother reads a letter from the morning mail and a newspaper describing overseas developments lies next to her, his father looks on. It is a poignant vignette reflecting keen home front concern about unfolding wartime events. To N.C. Wyeth, the choice between good and evil, freedom and tyranny in both World Wars was clear. His characteristically bold, forceful images, imbued with old-fashioned patriotism, helped spur an embattled America on to victory in both conflicts. exhibition poster Dimensions: 23 1/2"H x 19 1/4"W, 25 1/4"H x 21 1/4"W (frame)

- Xu Chunzhong (a.k.a. Paul Xu) (Chinese/
Xu Chunzhong (a.k.a. Paul Xu) (Chinese/ California b. 1938) "Lovely Hearts" and "God Bless American" 2005 oils on canvas from the series American Unite! each signed and dated lower right signed titled dated and inscribed en verso each 62 in. x 48 in. framed alike. Note: Dr. Chunzhong (Paul) Xu was born in Shanghai in 1938. He received his M.A. and Ph.D. from the Tokyo Art University and a B.A. and M.A. from the Central Academy of Fine Arts in Beijing. Xu is currently a professor of Art at the University of California Los Angeles; a consultant for the Bowers Museum Santa Ana; and President of Yan Huang Art Institute Shanghai. Shortly after Hurricane Katrina Xu was moved to paint a series of three works titled "America Unite!" depicting events in New Orleans and along the Mississippi Gulf Coast which he donated for the benefit of Hurricane Katrina Relief. The paintings offered here represent the last two of those three paintings. With his nationally acclaimed depiction of "The Heroic Death of Jin Xunhua " created in collaboration with artist Chen Yifei the young Xu came to be considered one of the most popular propaganda artists of the Chinese Cultural Revolution (1966-1976). Xu continues to create works depicting major events in world history. He recently completed a series of twelve oil paintings highlighting the role of Chinese-Americans in US history including their involvement in the Civil War in the building of railways and more recently in the war in Iraq. Encouraged by the success of that series Xu is now working on an oeuvre consisting of seventy paintings depicting "glorious moments in Chinese history." Xu was the first Chinese person to be awarded the American Red Cross Hero certificate by the US Congress for his series of three paintings covering the September 11 2001 terrorist attacks in New York City.
