abstract: After the opening of Japan in the mid-1800s many foreigners flocked to the nation. San Franciscan Helen Hyde (1868-1919) joined the throng in 1899. Unlike many of her predecessors, however, she went as a single woman and was so taken with Japan she made it her home over the span of fourteen years. While a number of cursory studies have been written on Helen Hyde and her work, a wide range of questions have been left unanswered. Issues regarding her specific training, her printmaking techniques and the marketing of her art have been touched on, but never delved into. This dissertation will explore those issues. Helen Hyde's success as a printmaker stemmed from her intense artistic training, experimental techniques, artistic and social connections and diligence in self-promotion and marketing as well as a Western audience hungry for "Old Japan," and its imagined quaintness. Hyde's choice to live and work in Japan gave her access to models and firsthand subject matter which helped her audience feel like they were getting a slice of Japan, translated for them by a Western artist. This dissertation provides an in depth bibliography including hundreds of primary newspaper articles about Hyde who was lauded for her unique style. It also expands and corrects the listing of her printed works and examines the working style of an American working in a Japanese system with Japanese subjects for a primarily American audience. It also provides a listing of known exhibitions of Hyde's works and a listing of stamps and markings she used on her prints. / Dissertation/Thesis / Doctoral Dissertation Art History 2016

Esta pesquisa apresenta uma investigação sobre a série de xilogravuras de minha autoria, intitulada Brumas, realizada entre 2009 e 2011. Parte das relações entre fotografia e gravura para averiguar como os procedimentos de marcar superfícies e transferir imagens trazem problematizações conceituais para a produção. São articuladas relações entre as linguagens adotadas, através da maneira como elas incitam a presença de um outro. O uso da paisagem se constituiu como fio condutor entre os trabalhos, nos quais procurou-se apontar um estado de suspensão decorrente do velar e revelar imagens. Por fim, para a verificação da estrutura da produção foram identificadas considerações sobre as relações que envolvem tempo e memória durante o processo de criação. / This research project investigates my print series Brumas produced between 2009 and 2011. Based on the relationships between photography and printmaking, it investigates how procedures of marking surfaces and transferring images also involve conceptual issues for production. The relationships between these languages are addressed through the way in which they instigate the presence of an other. The common thread of these works is the use of landscape, which seeks to indicate a state of suspension arising out of concealment and revelation of images. The structure of production was verified by identifying considerations about relationships which involve time and memory during the creative process.

[pt] Esta dissertação analisa as transições de usos pelas quais passaram as técnicas de reprodução de imagens. São identificadas as diferentes roupagens funcionais assumidas por tais fazeres e, dentre elas, privilegiadas as abordagens especificamente artísticas: aquelas que se valem de técnicas que perderam sua utilização funcional e aquelas que se apropriam de técnicas até então marcadas estritamente por esta funcionalidade. Nesse contexto, é então estudada a atuação da Lithos Edições de Arte, oficina gráfica fundada em 1973, no Rio de Janeiro. Ao longo de 35 anos, a Lithos vem trabalhando junto a importantes nomes das artes brasileiras, oferecendo-os a possibilidade de realizar trabalhos em série em serigrafia e litografia. Desde 2005, esta oficina realiza uma pioneira experiência com a nova técnica de gravação digital de matrizes de off-set, o CTP, computer-to-plate. Desenvolvidas e direcionadas para a industria gráfica, na Lithos, essas matrizes são adaptadas e impressas em uma prensa litográfica Marinoni, do século XIX. / [en] This dissertation analyzes the transitions of uses that the techniques of reproduction of images have passed through. The study identifies different functional outwardness assumed for such doings, and, among them, it privileges the specifically artistic approaches: those using techniques that lost their functional use and those that appropriate of techniques strictly marked until then by this functionality. In that context, it is, then, studied the performance of Lithos Edições de Arte, graphic workshop founded in 1973, in Rio de Janeiro. Along 35 years, Lithos is working close to important names of the Brazilian arts, offering them the possibility to carry out serial works in screen-printing and lithograph. Since 2005, this workshop accomplishes a pioneer experience with the new technique of digital recording of offset matrices, CTP, computer-to-plate. Developed and addressed for the graphic industry, in Lithos, those matrices are adapted and printed in a lithographic press Marinoni, of the century XIX.

From the body of ideas as poetic space we draw a path of trials with the titled dry lithography technique, alternative printing technique that refers to the subversion of traditional techniques, because it seeks to establish dialogues between the technique and its materialities bringing to the body element, questioning him in clippings and paths that overlap from one image to another, such as leather, fabrics film, an intimate walk towards the time and the place called body, which permeate the "speeches" and "truths" of society and culture . The materials used for this research were materials discarded by consumer society and information, such as offset plates, which in the recent past were a generating surface images now reused to generate new images; skins; films; tissues; voile; paraffins; stone; instruments for drawing; papers of varying textures, with the intention to provoke, evoke bodily surfaces memories. The weights on the use of diverse materials such as propellants contemporary and relevant reflections to the immense universe of images producer; sensitive body concept understood in its phenomenological relation between subject and object; reflection on the research methodology in visual poetics; and poetic concepts in physical space and the folds, which put us in an opportunity to make connections with dry lithography technique called, were the main theoretical framework that guided the construction of this research. / A presente dissertação de mestrado visa pensar a gravura e o corpo como formas de construir uma poética que dialoga com o duplo conceito de matriz, quais sejam como possibilidade de instaurar temporalidades advindas do sentido do corpo gerador de imagens e espaços expressivos de percepções do sujeito/objeto artista e pesquisador, construtor de sentidos. A partir das ideias de corpo como espaço poético traçamos um percurso de experimentações com a técnica intitulada litografia a seco, técnica de impressão alternativa que remete à subversão das técnicas tradicionais, pois busca estabelecer diálogos entre a técnica e suas materialidades trazendo como elemento o corpo, problematizando-o em recortes e caminhos que se sobrepõem de uma imagem à outra, como peles, películas tecidos, num passeio íntimo em direção ao tempo e ao lugar chamado corpo, onde perpassam os “discursos” e “verdades” da sociedade e da cultura. Os materiais utilizados para a realização desta pesquisa foram materiais descartados pela sociedade de consumo e informação, como as placas offset, que no passado recente foram uma superfície geradora de imagens, agora, reaproveitadas para gerar novas imagens; peles; películas; tecidos; voal; parafinas; pedra; instrumentos para desenhar; papéis de texturas variadas, com a intenção de provocar, evocar lembranças de superfícies corpóreas. As ponderações sobre o uso de materiais diversificados como propulsores de reflexões contemporâneas e pertinentes ao imenso universo produtor de imagens; o conceito de corpo sensível compreendido em sua relação fenomenológica entre sujeito e objeto; a reflexão sobre a metodologia de pesquisa em poéticas visuais; e os conceitos de poética no espaço corpóreo e as dobras, as quais nos colocam em oportunidade para fazer conexões com a técnica chamada litografia a seco, foram os principais aportes teóricos que guiaram a construção desta pesquisa.

Convenience stores in their various forms are not only commercial outlets of foodstuffs and sundry items but are also experiential in nature; the act of going to a convenience store is a culturally shared experience. In homage to these spaces, Cozy Mart is a public art installation and performance which recreates this shared experience in an idealized form. Based on do-it-yourself culture, appropriation of public space, and artistic traditions of sculpture and printmaking, Cozy Mart invites interaction with art outside of the traditional gallery space and capitalizes on alternative methods of art distribution.
