Today’s post comes from Taylor Shoolery, class of 2012 and Art Center student docent.
On Saturday Steve Brodner, political cartoonist, illustrator, and Thomas Rowlandson enthusiast, joined us at the Art Center to lead a private tour of the Rowlandson exhibit. Brodner’s talk was informed by his own unique experience as a satirist. Brodner praised Rowlandson’s artistic mastery commenting on the balance of freedom and control manifest in the prints and drawings. However, Brodner also noted that Rowlandson “was not a crusading cartoonist,” but rather he was happy to satirize any and all political figures. “He doesn’t give a damn,” said Brodner, “and that is where we differ.” But even given Rowlandson’s lack of political devotion, Brodner regarded each work with reverence. As we stood in front of the watercolor, The Prize Fight Brodner commented, “The closer you look, the more surprises you will find.” Indeed, that is true of all of Rowlandson’s intricate images. The exhibition closes on June 12, so hurry in to get a last look at the works that have inspired the satire we know today.
To read more about Brodner’s visit to the Art Center you can go to his blog.
I love what you guys are usually up too. This sort of clever work and reporting! Keep up the awesome works guys I’ve added you guys to my personal blogroll.
Hey would you mind letting me know which web host you’re using? I’ve loaded your blog in 3 completely different browsers and I must say this blog loads a lot faster then most. Can you recommend a good hosting provider at a fair price? Many thanks, I appreciate it!
Really helpful info. Thanks.
Fantastic site you have here but I was wanting to know if you knew of any discussion boards that cover the same topics discussed in this article? I’d really like to be a part of online community where I can get comments from other experienced individuals that share the same interest. If you have any recommendations, please let me know. Many thanks!
My developer is trying to persuade me to move to .net from PHP. I have always disliked the idea because of the expenses. But he’s tryiong none the less. I’ve been using WordPress on a number of websites for about a year and am concerned about switching to another platform. I have heard fantastic things about blogengine.net. Is there a way I can transfer all my wordpress content into it? Any help would be really appreciated!
Greetings from Florida! I’m bored at work so I decided to check out your blog on my iphone during lunch break. I enjoy the knowledge you present here and can’t wait to take a look when I get home. I’m shocked at how quick your blog loaded on my mobile .. I’m not even using WIFI, just 3G .. Anyhow, awesome site!
This is really amazing, glad to have found it. Thanks, http://www.holiday-and-fly.at/

Hey would you mind sharing which blog platform you’re working with? I’m planning to start my own blog soon but I’m having a hard time making a decision between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask is because your design seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for something unique. P.S Sorry for being off-topic but I had to ask!
Amazing, it’s just what I was looking for. Thanks. http://onlinepokerau.com/

Hmm it seems like your website ate my first comment (it was super long) so I guess I’ll just sum it up what I submitted and say, I’m thoroughly enjoying your blog. I too am an aspiring blog writer but I’m still new to the whole thing. Do you have any helpful hints for inexperienced blog writers? I’d certainly appreciate it.
Hi there! Do you know if they make any plugins to help with Search Engine Optimization? I’m trying to get my blog to rank for some targeted keywords but I’m not seeing very good gains. If you know of any please share. Thank you!
Good day! I know this is kinda off topic but I was wondering which blog platform are you using for this site? I’m getting tired of WordPress because I’ve had problems with hackers and I’m looking at options for another platform. I would be fantastic if you could point me in the direction of a good platform.

Hi, I think your site might be having browser compatibility issues. When I look at your blog in Chrome, it looks fine but when opening in Internet Explorer, it has some overlapping. I just wanted to give you a quick heads up! Other then that, amazing blog!
That makes perfect sense honestly. Thanks.
Really appreciate your contribution!
Would love to see more posts soon…

My spouse and I absolutely love your blog and find nearly all of your post’s to be exactly what I’m looking for. can you offer guest writers to write content to suit your needs? I wouldn’t mind publishing a post or elaborating on most of the subjects you write related to here. Again, awesome web log!

Thanks for sharing some of your knowledge.
Amazing! This blog looks exactly like my old one! It’s on a entirely different subject but it has pretty much the same layout and design. Outstanding choice of colors!
There are some interesting points in this post but I don’t know if I see all of them heart to eye
There is some validness but I will hold opinion until I look into it further.
It was a very nice idea! Just wanna say thank you for the information you have diffused.
Howdy! I could have sworn I’ve been to this site before but after reading through some of the post I realized it’s new to me. Nonetheless, I’m definitely delighted I found it and I’ll be book-marking and checking back often!
I will always bookmark your blog and may come back down the road!!

Hi! This is kind of off topic but I need some guidance from an established blog. Is it very hard to set up your own blog? I’m not very techincal but I can figure things out pretty quick. I’m thinking about making my own but I’m not sure where to begin. Do you have any ideas or suggestions? Many thanks
Hey there! Someone in my Facebook group shared this website with us so I came to take a look. I’m definitely loving the information. I’m book-marking and will be tweeting this to my followers! Terrific blog and amazing style and design.
Good posting indeed, keep it up.
I know this if off topic but I’m looking into starting my own weblog and was curious what all is needed to get setup? I’m assuming having a blog like yours would cost a pretty penny? I’m not very web savvy so I’m not 100% certain. Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated. Appreciate it

Howdy this is kinda of off topic but I was wondering if blogs use WYSIWYG editors or if you have to manually code with HTML. I’m starting a blog soon but have no coding experience so I wanted to get advice from someone with experience. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
I like this website very much so much good information…
I like reading this website got some really useful stuff on it!

I have not checked in here for some time because I thought it was getting boring, but the last few posts are good quality…
Thomas Rowlandson’s “The Prize Fight” was a beautiful piece of work with such artistry. He created a wonderful art with just a watercolor and a pen.
Hmm it looks like your website ate my first comment (it was super long) so I guess I’ll just sum it up what I submitted and say, I’m thoroughly enjoying your blog. I too am an aspiring blog writer but I’m still new to everything. Do you have any points for first-time blog writers? I’d really appreciate it.
You really know your stuff… Keep up the good work
