Carlberg, Zoe R. "Walking Los Angeles." Scholarship @ Claremont, 2012. http://scholarship.claremont.edu/pomona_theses/55.

Abstract:

This paper is about my experience walking through Los Angeles County. My principal motivations were to explore what it means to be a pedestrian in an urban landscape that generally does not recognize walkers and to give value to often overlooked spaces. The paper includes a brief history of the Los Angeles region, methodology, an analysis of some other art projects that have been done about walking, and a vignette of the experience.

Shearer, Katherine. "The "Postmodern Geographies" of Frank Gehry's Los Angeles." Scholarship @ Claremont, 2017. http://scholarship.claremont.edu/scripps_theses/1031.

Abstract:

This thesis examines the ways in which Frank Gehry’s architectural contributions to Los Angeles’ social and built environment have shaped the region’s “postmodern geographies” throughout the 20th and 21st century. Through a focused exploration of three of Gehry’s postmodernist structures in Greater Los Angeles—a house, a library, and a concert hall—this thesis analyses how Gehry and his designs reflected and affected the artistic and socio-spatial development of Los Angeles’ “decidedly postmodern landscape.”

Abstract:

The history of the Mexican American population of the United States has involved a succession of socio-political phases since the beginning of the twentieth-century. One phase termed the 'Chicano era' emerged in mid-century culminating in the 1960s period of civil-rights activism. In this unified social movement acting for change of the historical situation of oppression, the crucial role of the arts contributed to the formation of the Chicane art movement. This thesis concerns developments in Chicano art production following the civil rights era from the 1970s to the present day. Through its

Abstract:

Determining whether the arts are beneficial to a student’s education is a widely, and hotly debated topic every year in the United States, with many studies published each year demonstrating the impact that the arts have on various educational outcomes, from increased test scores to higher graduation rates. This paper examines previous research on the efficacy of incentives and how students’ participation in extracurricular activities, from sports to the arts, could impact graduation rates. It also develops a model for analyzing the present value of a high school education to a student using a

Abstract:

Visually, Baldessari’s art mirrors the schoolroom chart, the cinematic storyboard, the Surrealist collage, the sensationalist graphics of the tabloid, and the grid format of the textbook. Black and white photography, performance, collage, bright prints, film, drawing, and painting: Baldessari has done it all. The artist has consistently demonstrated an inventiveness and sense of play in his work, and it is unlikely that he would stick to any one mode of artmaking for an extended period of time. It is probable that the explicit critique of contemporary Conceptualists of the text paintings mello

In addition to portraying the histories of minority races, ethnicities, religions and sexuality, the piece was created by a diverse team of community members who each contributed their own viewpoints to the piece.

Abstract:

<p> In 2008, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art's collection of pre-Columbian artifacts was re-installed in a gallery designed by contemporary artist, Jorge Pardo. The history of these ancient objects dates back over three thousand years, but new meanings emerged and critical issues unfolded when these culturally displaced objects were staged within Pardo's flamboyant design. This collision of indigenous and contemporary cultural narratives is examined on three levels: the problems inherent in the constructed knowledge of ancient objects; the changes that have taken place in systems of ethno

Abstract:

This paper explores the historical and contemporary situation of waterways in Los Angeles. It examines the birth and growth of metropolitan LA and contrasts this narrative with the current and pressing issues of drought and gentrification. This contrast raises the question of the sustainability of human growth in resource-scarce regions. From this analysis it forwards a nuanced perspective of the hypothesis that the dynamics of environmental degradation in the LA region threaten human growth. It suggests that this degradation comes as a result of egocentric human development projects by the el

This study examines Maya Angelou as a powerful African-American woman in the twentieth century who impacted generations of African Americans. Her biographies and selected works speak strongly and wisely about gender and racial empowerment. This empowerment was sown in her childhood and could be traced throughout her life. It is also a fact that seldom does the realization of one’s race and gender take place at such an early age as with Maya Angelou. She was highly marginalized not only in terms of gender but also in terms of race with acute consciousness.

Abstract:

<p> The Mental Health Services Act (MHSA) of 2004 was analysed using David Gil’s (1992) analytic framework.

This analysis found that there have been some improvements in the provision of services to TAY as a result of the MHSA (2004).

Each chapter examines both authors?? treatments of a specific room in the house.

Abstract:

L'elaborato mira a ricostruire, accanto alla figura e all’attività di Angelo Alessandri – pittore che visse e operò a cavallo tra la fine dell'Ottocento e l'inizio del Novecento – l’ambiente veneziano in cui egli si mosse e al quale, unitamente ad altre figure di spiccato rilievo – non solo cittadino – diede un contributo determinante sul piano dello sviluppo artistico, economico e culturale.
