"This beautiful book brings together ten years of research on a superb collection of 18th-century French masterworks, which was formed by the late Michael L. Rosenberg and is now on deposit at the Dallas Museum of Art. This research, originally presented in lectures at the museum by an impressive roster of scholars and curators of European art, combines close studies of individual paintings by such artists as François Boucher, Jean-Baptiste Greuze, and Louis Leopold Boilly with rich accounts of the historical, cultural, and political climates of their time. The works, many of which have not yet been widely published, span elegant portraits, intimate genre paintings, erotic canvases depicting mythological themes, and bloody images of the hunt. Through careful reconstructions of the lives of these artworks--from their first audiences to their contexts of display--the essays in this book unfold the history of a century of French art"-- "Since 2004, the Dallas Museum of Art has been the repository of the renowned collection of eighteenth-century French art assembled by the late Michael Rosenberg. The long-term loan of these masterpieces greatly enhances the collection of European art at the Museum, and the series of scholarly lectures funded by the Foundation, the Michael L. Rosenberg Lecture Series, gives a powerful boost to its European art program. Those lectures, presented by top scholars in the field of European art history, are re-presented in this volume"--

"Indigenous American art has a long history at the Dallas Museum of Art. The DMA, formerly the Dallas Museum of Fine Arts (DMFA), first acquired early twentieth-century paintings and watercolors on paper by Indigenous North American artists in 1933. These works depicted Indigenous life and ceremonies. In 1950, human and animal ceramic effigies from Nicaragua were added, followed by two Chimú featherworks, several other pieces of ancient Andean pottery, Veracruz ceramics, and contemporary Inuit soapstone sculptures. These eclectic beginnings set the foundation for a collection that to date totals some 3,615 works of art and cultural significance and composes nearly 15 percent of the DMA's total collection. Created by Indigenous peoples from Alaska to the Andes, and with over 145 distinct cultural groups represented, the large number of objects in the collection by no means implies exhaustive coverage of the artistic accomplishments of peoples across the great geographic and socio-politically diverse expanse of the Americas. The artworks span nearly 4,500 years; the oldest artifacts in the collection are small human figurines attributed to the so-called prehistoric Valdivia culture that occupied the Pacific coastal lowlands of Ecuador from approximately 3500-1500 BCE. The DMA holds multiple works ascribed to Valdivia. The most recently created work is Multiplicity (2019), a striking gourd-shaped ceramic vessel portraying a futuristic narrative by Cochiti Pueblo artist Diego Romero. While the works in the Indigenous American collection include both ancient and contemporary examples, ancient and ancestral works predominate and are the focus of this catalogue"--
