Next stop at the @blantonmuseum - more iconic art on which to feast, ponder, and draw inspiration: 1) Dan Flavin, “monument” 2) Fred Wilson, “Grey Area” 3) Frank Stella, “Miniature Benjamin Moore Series” 4) Andy Warhol, “Macintosh, Paramount, Blackglama (Judy Garland), and Lifesavers” 5) Barbara Kruger, “Untitled (We Will No Longer Be Seen and Not Heard)” - she’s the OG meme-maker as far as I’m concerned 6) Jeff Koons, “Louis XIV” 7) Luis Jimenéz, “Longhorns” w/ Frederic Remington, “The Charge (A Cavalry Scrap)” 8) Sonya Clark, “Madame C.J. Walker” (made entirely of combs) 9) Andy Warhol, “Farrah Fawcett” 10) Cauleen Smith, “Light Up Your Life (For Sandra Bland)” which also alternately reads “I Will Light You Up”, which is what the cop said to her when he pulled her over for not signaling- you may recall she died of “suicide” in jail days later. . We looked at tons more art and didn’t even get to see it all because the collection is so impressive and we got there too late to see everything before closing. I can’t wait to come back again and see the rest- really impressive collection! . @joatwood @blantonmuseum @utaustintx #austin #texas #utaustin #blantonmuseum #art #modernart #contemporaryart #danflavin #fredwilson #frankstella #andywarhol #barbarakruger #jeffkoons #luisjimenez #fredericremington #sonyaclark #cauleensmith #sandrabland #nefertiti #madamecjwalker #judygarland #farrahfawcett #inspired (at Blanton Museum Of Art, University Of Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cpt8yudORRA/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

A Mexican Vaquero, Frederic Remington, 1890, Art Institute of Chicago: American Art

A trip to Mexico in 1889 provided Frederic Remington with a wealth of firsthand material for paintings and illustrations created later in his New York studio. Here Remington depicted a vaquero, a Mexican horseman similar to the cowboys of the American frontier. The figure sits astride his horse at an elevated position, his head and torso above the horizon, outlined by the pale blue sky behind him. Portraying the man with a direct gaze and his hand on the reins, Remington suggested that the vaquero was a fixture of the local terrain. The artist created a version of A Mexican Vaquero as a wood engraving, which appeared in Harper’s Monthly in 1891. George F. Harding Collection Size: 82.6 × 58.4 cm (32 1/2 × 23 in.) Medium: Oil on canvas

Bronco Buster, Frederic Remington, 19th century, Minneapolis Institute of Art: Decorative Arts, Textiles and Sculpture

Equestrian Figure Remington’s sculpture of a bronco buster (a cowboy who “breaks” horses so they can be ridden) is a metaphor for the conflict inherent in the idea of an American West. The horse struggling under the cowboy’s power represents the wild, untamed land that was home to Native Americans and wildlife. The cowboy stands for the pioneers and explorers who kept pushing west. Size: 24 x 19 x 12 in. (60.96 x 48.26 x 30.48 cm) Medium: Bronze

When Frederic Remington’s wild west art fell out of favor, he changed up his delivery by limiting illustrative narrative in which he told the story, to stark minimalism that let the viewer create his or her own story. That wolf see you. What happens next?  You come to the blog at vernellestudio.com, of course, to check out “Nocturnes: Remington Paints the Energy of the Night.”
