Lists: To-dos, Illustrated Inventories, Collected Thoughts, and Other Artists' Enumerations from the Smithsonian's Archives of American Art | Liza Kirwin
46 posts | 1 read
From the weekly shopping list to the Ten Commandments, our lives are shaped by lists. Whether dashed off as a quick reminder, or carefully constructed as an inventory, this humble form of documentation provides insight into its maker's personal habits and decision-making processes. This is especially true for artists, whose day-to-day acts of living and art-making overlap and inform each other. Artists' lists shed uncover a host of unbeknownst motivations, attitudes, and opinions about their work and the work of others. Lists presents almost seventy artifacts, including "to do" lists, membership lists, lists of paintings sold, lists of books to read, lists of appointments made and met, lists of supplies to get, lists of places to see, and lists of people who are "in." At times introspective, humorous, and resolute, but always revealing and engaging, Lists is a unique firsthand account of American cultural history that augments the personal biographies of some of the most celebrated and revered artists of thelast two centuries. Many of the lists are historically important, throwing a flood of light on a moment, movement, or event; others are private, providing an intimate view of an artist's personal life: Pablo Picasso itemized his recommendations for the Armory Show in 1912; architect Eero Saarinen enumerated the good qualities of the then New York Times art editor and critic Aline Bernstein, his second wife; sculptor Alexander Calder's address book reveals the whos who of the Parisian avant-garde in the early twentieth century. In the hands of their creators, these artifacts become works of art in and of themselves. Lists includes rarely seen specimens by Vito Acconci, Leo Castelli, Joseph Cornell, Hans Hofmann, Franz Kline, Willem de Kooning, Lee Krasner, H. L. Mencken, Robert Motherwell, Barnett Newman, Jackson Pollock, Richard Pousette-Dart, Robert Rauschenberg, Ad Reinhardt, Mark Rothko, Clyfford Still, and Andrew Wyeth.

Thanks for the tag @Crazeedi
My 3 quirks!
1- I‘m a neat freak - everything has to be in its place !
2- I‘m wary of food that has an odd texture!
3- I can only read one book at a time!

Thank you for my wonderful list @peaKnit I was considering reading Yellowface recently as it's been such a big book this year and wanted to see what the fuss was all about so this has given me the perfect opportunity.

Thank you @monalyisha for hosting this event. Love it as it has enabled me throughout the years to read some great books. 📚📖

I haven't had nearly as much time during this vacation to plan my reading challenge reading for 2022 so since there are lots of fresh, new prompts, I've added some books I'm just excited about in hopes they'll fit in somewhere. And there's always the 5 free spaces should I need them.

Anyone else identify with this?

I have so many shelves on GoodReads that correspond with reading challenges and I LOVE making the list and feeling organized, but then I tend to get overwhelmed (maybe underwhelmed is more accurate!) at the thought of actually getting them completed.

No more lists until I complete one! .o0(Yeah right!)

Amandajoy I had 283, but there were definitely some odd picks. I would like to see a “1000 books you might have read if you‘re active on Litsy” checklist. 4y
dainarmb I got 119, which is apparently better than 52% of users and yet still somehow below the average score of 131. I also don't remember which books I didn't read by certain authors in high school, and I own so many of them but they're in my endless TBR pile 😅 4y
Chrissyreadit @Chrys yes- it was odd! 4y
Chrissyreadit @eanderson ha! Many were children‘s books. There were far more on my TBR- and quite a few that I would not choose to read. 4y
Chrissyreadit @dainarmb yes- there were a few books that I think I read many years ago but could not remember do left them unchecked. 4y
Chrissyreadit @GondorGirl that‘s a lot of books!! 4y

LeahBergen Right?? What an odd list. 😆 4y
Avanders I had 220.... but there are a fair number of those books on my shelves waiting to be read 😁😁 I thought it was based on the number of people rating the book on Goodreads — is the top 1000 books rated (though prob not the top 1000-rated books... hehheh 😜) 4y
Chrissyreadit @Avanders yes- I think I have about 100 of them on shelves. But some of them seemed odd to have higher ratings than others not on the list. I think you‘re right about how they were chosen. 4y

#top6reads for 2019 so far. Not surprising, non-fiction is outweighing fiction this year.

@cinfhen

Amiable I‘m right there with you. This year so far my nonfiction reads have far outpaced the fiction ones. Guess it‘s a nonfiction kind of year! 🙂 5y
RamsFan1963 @amiable I need the escape of fiction, but I've stumbled on so many fascinating non-fiction stories, between #Libby and #Audible, that they have drawn more of my attention so far this year. 5y

sloanghost

Finally got around to sorting my unresearched books into my tbr, placing my litsy stack into my unresearched list, and culling books I've lost interest in from my tbr. Feels...somehow both tidy and out of control as the tbr swells further and further.

batsy Sounds good. I really need to get my Litsy TBR in order too, by removing some books I've lost interest in. But everytime I look in there it's like *stares into the void* 6y
sloanghost @batsy it would be easier I bet, if there was some way to select and delete or mass edit without having to go to every single book page! Not to mention sometimes the removal doesn't "take" and you have to do it again. 6y
batsy Yes! Also that it takes you back to the top of the list each time. 6y

So, this is not compulsory, but for the #MountTBRchallenge, if you would like to post your TBR list, now‘s the time to do it! You can list the whole shebang (!), just the first few or as many as you like. The books listed in my picture are ones I‘ve either already started or really must read this year. I probably will change it up quite a bit, because I‘m a mood reader.

What‘s yours?

jfalkens That sounds amazing 😍😍😍 one of my friends from a Harry Potter Facebook group had a Harry Potter wedding and recently baby announcement. 7y
brutalbookworm I'm extremely excited about it, he actually welded me the backdrop of Hogwarts and we are lighting it up from behind. That's what our cupcakes (instead of cake) will be resting by 7y

I'm no good with lots of tech and I can't commit to journaling so I make lists. Here's my old school index card catalog of books I've read since 2007. 10 books on each card, 2 kids in between and I've already read as many books at this point in 2017 as I read in all of 2016! #ThanksLitsy #blameitonlitsy #mytribe #noyourockandyouknowthat

1. Beaufort, SC - originally from Arizona.
2. I think a @bookriot article? It was only on iPhones then, but I got the app as soon as it was on Android.
3. Persuasion is perfection in both book and movie form (the Amanda Root version!)
4. No, but I babysat one when I was a kid and it was weird and cute.

Jess_Read_This I love Beaufort!!! The Lowcountry Marketplace is one of my favorite lunch stops! 7y
ferskner @Jess_Read_This I work next door! I have to be careful how often I go because it's so tempting and delicious. Have we talked about Beaufort before? You stop here on the way to Savannah, right? 7y
Jess_Read_This @ferskner Haha! Yes that's me! I feel like 10 Second Tom from that Drew Barrymore movie that introduces himself every 10 seconds... except it's every time you say you live in Beaufort. 😂😂😂 7y

ferskner @Jess_Read_This Haha! I think we've only talked about it once, and I'd totally forgotten. For a minute I was excited that there were TWO Littens who love LCP as much as I do! 7y
Jess_Read_This @ferskner I crave their tomato pie and Caesar salad... and pimento cheese spread. I do buy their spreads, jams, and relishes online though to get my fix. 7y
ferskner @Jess_Read_This YES. I get the Ooey Gooey (grilled pimento cheese, bacon, and hot pepper jelly), or if I'm feeling virtuous, the Lobeco chicken salad. There's really nothing mediocre there. 7y
saguarosally Hey I know about places in Arizona anyway. 😄 7y
tpixie @Jess_Read_This @ferskner you 2 are making me hungry! 7y
Jess_Read_This @ferskner Omigosh. I wish I was there now. 7y
Jess_Read_This @tpixie Oh.. the food is so good there. Well worth the trip from wherever you are in the world! 🍽😁 7y
tpixie @Jess_Read_This Kansas - I've got to travel to that 1/2 of USA 🇺🇸! 7y
ferskner @Jess_Read_This @tpixie Everyone come visit and we'll have lunch there and then go to Nevermore Books! 7y

Really looking forward to browsing through this book. And maybe it will make me more productive. (Not likely, I know.)
