  SIR DOUGLAS HAIG
  by OTIS PORRITT

  Pop Art is a visual art movement that emerged in the mid 1950s in Britain and in parallel in the late 1950s in the United States. Pop Art challenged tradition by asserting that an artist’s use of the mass produced visual commodities of popular culture is contiguous with the perspective of Fine Art since Pop removes the material from its context and isolates the object, or combines it with other objects, for contemplation. The concept of Pop Art refers not as much to the art itself as to the attitudes that led to it.

  Chapel
  by Richard Stephan Bergquist

  This four-figured statue, rising twelve feet from the base to the tip of the flag, is the exhibit prepared to present the California National Guard at the (1939) California World’s Fair on Treasure Island in San Francisco Bay. / / The statue is the product of the artistry of Haig Patigian, famous San Francisco sculptor. Among his well known works are statues of Gen. Pershing and Helen Wills. / / Seen in this picture are a Guardsman, left, and, at the right, an armored woman bearing sword and flag, representing ‘Patriotism.’ / / Completing the statue and not seen from this view are two other feminine figures: one, adult, in the rear, and the other, adolescent, to the fore. This portion of the statue has been termed ‘Humanity’ by the sculptor. Whereas the Junoesque figure of ‘Patriotism’ gazes bravely and fearlessly forward, head upraised, the adult of ‘Humanity’ looks tenderly and benignantly downward toward the bowed head of the sorrowful girl. One need not draw heavily on the imagination to see in this section of the statue a dispirited refugee afforded sympathetic sanctuary from calamity, war, or racial intolerance. The fiqures of the statue are seven feet in height. The base is four feet high and three feet in diameter. In the background is the base chapel. Camp San Luis Obispo, California.

  Captain Spaulding
  by ROUBLE RUST

  This is a gift for my dear ZOMBIE and the GRINDHOUSE group. A portrait of Captain Spaulding. 24×30 cm / Acrylics, Gouache & Watercolours on canvas board / Full view please Captain Spaulding was born on April 13, 1918 in Ruggsville, Texas with the name Johnny Lee Johns. He spent a small part of his childhood in the Ruggsville County home for orphaned boys until being adopted by a black family. Johnny Lee would soon grow very close to his adoptive brother Charlie. Johnny Lee developed an interest in sideshow deformities and violent crime photography, foreshadowing his Captain Spaulding persona. He began his murder spree as Mr. Ding Dong a Bo-Bo using his clown character’s name. Charlie would refer to him as Cutter after Johnny Lee stabbed a man to death, which he would take as his name. Around the fall of 1947, Cutter met Mother Firefly, who at the time took the alias Eve Wilson. She already had two children of her own, Rufus and Tiny. Cutter lived with Eve Wilson, even raising their daughter Vera Ellen together. During the summer of 1965, Otis B. Driftwood, wandered into Ruggsville County. He and Otis quickly became close companions and rivals. The two would often fight for control of the family. Otis was asked to live with the family; whom Otis called The Fireflys and it was he who also nicknamed Cutter, Captain Spaulding.
