13 lutego przypada rocznica urodzin Granta Wooda (1891–1942), amerykańskiego malarza związanego z regionalizmem. Jego „American Gothic” to prawdopodobnie jedno z najbardziej znanych dzieł sztuki w USA. Wood portretował życie na Środkowym Zachodzie z ironią i dbałością o szczegół.

Ale że coś do "Historii sztuki w komiksie" trafi się w "G.I. Joe", to, przyznaję, się nie spodziewałem.

"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...
