Connection through cultivation: a comprehensive design for St. James Place community garden

Brewster, Ashley January 1900 (has links)
Master of Landscape Architecture / Department of Landscape Architecture/Regional and Community Planning / Katherine Nesse / Many cities around the United States struggle with racially segregated neighborhoods (USA on Race 2013). The existence of isolated neighborhoods continues to reinforce racial distrust and promotes stereotypes. Some of the primary negative consequences associated with residential segregation include unequal job opportunities, greater health risk, high concentrations of poverty, educational constraints, and high building and lot vacancy rates. Residential segregation is an issue in Kansas City, Missouri along Troost Avenue. Troost Avenue is a stark racial dividing line within the city core. West of Troost Avenue, whites account for 88 percent of the population while blacks make up 93 percent of the population to the east (Troost Village Community Association 2013). The intent for this project is to create a resource to help establish and promote social interaction within the Troost Avenue neighborhoods by creating a purpose-driven community garden at the St. James Place apartment complex. The site’s unique location, positioned adjacent to other apartment complexes and subdivisions in the Citadel Neighborhood, had the potential to attract many types of users to the garden site. Through a process of literature review, surveys, interviews, and precedent study analysis, design goals were established. The design proposals for the St. James Place Community Garden focus on increasing site activity, establishing accessibility, and promoting originality.

Peinture et comédie : les scènes de théâtre de Cornelis Troost (1696-1750)

Cadotte, Julie 10 1900 (has links)
Le présent mémoire porte sur l’un des peintres néerlandais les plus connus de son époque, Cornelis Troost (1696-1750). Celui-ci tire son succès du traitement et de l’originalité de ses sujets dans la confection de ses scènes de théâtre, dont cinq sont abordées ici. Troost fut lui-même acteur de profession avant de se consacrer au métier de peintre. Tout comme les œuvres de Troost, l’art hollandais du XVIIIe siècle est un sujet rarement abordé en histoire de l’art. Plusieurs éléments historiques des Pays-Bas, notamment certains des bouleversements politiques, sont indispensables afin d'acquérir une meilleure compréhension des œuvres théâtrales de Troost. Dans ses scènes de théâtre, Troost embrasse le côté théâtral de celles-ci. Ses œuvres portent le même titre que les pièces desquelles elles sont tirées. De plus, Troost introduit ses personnages de près et cette particularité met l'accent sur les émotions des personnages et sur l’action. Un parallèle est tracé avec Jan Steen et Gérard De Lairesse, eux-mêmes des artistes hollandais s’inspirant du théâtre. La narration dans les œuvres de Troost est également un point important afin de bien comprendre ses scènes de théâtre. / This master’s thesis focuses on one of the most famous Dutch painters of his time, Cornelis Troost (1696-1750). Troost’s success derives from the originality of his subjects in the theatrical scenes he depicts five of which are discussed here. Troost himself was a professional actor before devoting himself to the art of painting. Dutch art of the eighteenth century is a topic rarely discussed in art history. Several elements of Netherlandish history, including political changes, are essential in order to acquire a better understanding of Troost's theatrical work. Troost embraces the theatrical source. His works of art bear the same title as the plays from which they are drawn. Troost puts the emphasis on his characters, and this feature helps to put the focus on the emotions of the characters and the action. A parallel is made with Jan Steen and Gerard De Lairesse, other Dutch artists who were inspired by the theatrical world. The narrative aspect in the works of Troost is also an important aspect which needs to be approached in order to understand his theater scenes.
