In Sabah politics, the conflict is fundamental: 🩵 local parties fight for MA63 rights and state autonomy against 💜 federalist coalitions whose priorities often align with Peninsular interests rather than Sabahan sovereignty.

Tenant Farmer

The discussion examines Andrew Wyeth's artwork, focusing on "Tenant Farmer" and its misinterpretation through an Emersonian lens. Critics struggle to appreciate Wyeth's psychological depth, mistaking it for regionalism. Close visual analysis highlights ambiguity in themes of decay and haunting rather than simplistic readings of nature and transcendentalism.

One thing we know about cities and suburbs is they fight over everything. But what if all their leaders came together once a year to talk about regional problems and get to know one another? Would that help? The Detroit area has been doing this for decades with its Mackinac Policy Conference. Now Atlanta is giving it a try. https://saportareport.com/arc-convening-inaugural-regional-assembly-of-public-officials/sections/reports/maria_saporta/ #regionalism

"Stone City, Iowa," Grant Wood, 1930.

Wood (1891-1942) was THE great American Regionalist painter. He's best known for "American Gothic" but so much else he did is worth looking at.

This painting of an idyllic village is actually a depiction of a town in transition. Stone City had been founded as a company town for a limestone quarry, but the limestone business declined with the rise of Portland cement, so the town shrank and shifted into agriculture. This is a fairly idealized scene showing the town now in harmony with its environment, and a place where Wood established an art colony for a couple of years.

Looks like the perfect landscape for an autumn drive...

From the Joslyn Art Museum, Omaha, NE.
