Title A name given to the resource The Ken Trevey Collection of American Realist Prints Description An account of the resource The AD&A Museum is indebted to UC Santa Barbara alumnus Ken Trevey for this significant contribution to the Museum’s holdings in graphic arts. The Ken Trevey Collection tells the stories of Americans across a broad socio-economic spectrum during the 1930s and 1940s. In addition, the Trevey Collection provides the vehicle for an in-depth investigation into the history of printmaking during the Great Depression in the United States. As a body of prints created during the first period of significant government support for the arts, the Trevey Collection is of value to students and scholars across numerous disciplines, including art history, American history, race and gender studies, and economic history. In its inaugural exhibition at the Museum, works from the Trevey Collection were grouped around several themes: realistic urban dramas countered by idealized country settings, women in the world, men in industry, couples and lovers, old boys’ clubs, and the preoccupation with body image as rendered in scenes of sports and medicine. At the center of these thematic groupings, one finds in the Trevey Collection numerous images of African-American life. In their treatment of the African-American experience, the prints vacillate between a growing yet complicated acknowledgment of the hardships of racism and stereotyped imagery reflective of the limited white perceptions of black realities. “Prints…are the most democratic form of pictorial art,” wrote the organizers of the print section at the New York World’s Fair in 1939. The Trevey Collection of American realist prints exemplifies this statement through its diverse depictions of rural and urban, black and white, male and female, empowered and impoverished. Ken Trevey was a television screenwriter and his interest in stories is felt clearly in these prints. Physical Object An inanimate, three-dimensional object or substance.

Title A name given to the resource Women Beyond Borders Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived Women Beyond Borders Art Collection founded by Lorraine Serena Description An account of the resource Donated in 2023, Women Beyond Borders showcases the transformative gift of the archives and artworks from the multisite, cross-cultural exhibition project, Women Beyond Borders, founded by UCSB alum, Lorraine Serena (B.A. ’63, M.F.A. ‘75) in 1991. The project started with a small wooden box (measuring 3 1/2 by 2 by 2 1/2 inches) and an enticing invitation to women around the world—to transform this small container to one's liking. More than 900 people across 50 countries accepted it. The exhibition explores how Women Beyond Borders fostered experimental spaces for doing-it-oneself and doing-it-together, highlighted artistic media often dismissed for being in the realm of women, and challenged—through feminist practice and collectivity—hurdles for artistic freedom and expression in a wide array of geopolitical contexts.

Title A name given to the resource ASAOKA, Akané Description An account of the resource Until Death Do Us Part, 1995 Wood box, paint, fabric, thread "In my home country, Japan, there is a legend for girls that says that their prospective husbands have their little toes tied up to them with an invisible red thread. I used to believe in this legend as well. In my opinion, it is wonderful to be able to believe in such a thing. Since we're infants, we are educated to play a role either as a woman or as man. I still remember when I used to play house-dolls with my friends and how much we enjoyed playing the mother's role, like all the mothers of every mother. It is a simple but very pleasing memory that all women have inside. However, nowadays I often feel a victim of the male order and often wonder what I can do about it. I was thinking of this as I was making this box and I felt like I was playing with dolls again because I was doing typical housework tasks such as sewing, washing, and ironing. I hope you will tender my piece during the traveling exhibition as if it were our collective memory, which men will never be able to understand. And please, wash it and iron it when needed." - Akané Asaoka Created in Spain Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 1995 Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource ASAOKA, Akané b.
