Thank you for your consideration.

Best,

Here is the essay that David wrote for the Sebastopol Arts catalogue. You are welcome to use it and you only need my permission to do so. I do not know if it is the same article that Americam Art Review published. Hope this is what you need. Tony

This letter gives TFAO the permission and rights to use an essay on their web site which was written by my brother, David Stary-Sheets, for a catalogue produced for an exhibit of our father's artworks of the 1930s and 40s. The exhibit was shown in Northern and Southern California at three separate venues. The Sebastopol Center for the Arts, Orange County Museum of Art, and the Ventura Museum of History and Art in 1997 and 1998. By brother and I curated the exhibit and own the rights to this essay.

A special TFAO emphasis is building an archive of material, authored by scholars and other informed individuals, beneficial for the study of art history in the United States. As a public service, without charge to readers, TFAO annually publishes a number of scholarly texts relating to American representational art in its publication Resource Library.

American Art Review, ISSN 0092-1327, is published on paper and noted for its scholarly content by both senior authors and younger scholars. Tel 913.451.8801. The time period focus of American Art Review is from the Colonial era through 1970. The first issue of Volume 1 of the magazine was published in September, 1973. Publication was suspended with Volume 4 in November, 1978. Publication resumed with Volume V in the Summer of 1992 and continues to the present. In the 19th century there was a journal with a similar title, The American Art Review: A Journal Devoted to The Practice, Theory, History and Archaeology of Art edited by S.R. Koehler.

From time to time, TFAO contacts copyright owners of American Art Review articles and requests permission to reprint catalogue essays from which the articles were derived. -- without illustrations -- in Resource Library. As an alternate, TFAO may obtain permission to reprint the American Art Review articles without illustrations.

Currently TFAO volunteers and contractors are reviewing articles published in American Art Review from 1992 through 1998 in alphabetical order by author's last name. Contractors enter into an independent contractor agreement with TFAO for processing specified texts. For information on contracting opportunities please click here.
