September's theme: Labor
HAROLD WESTON (1894 - 1972), “Building the United Nations #1, Steelwork of Secretariat”, 1949. Smithsonian American Art Museum, Washington DC.
#arthistory #art #Labor #UnitedNations #NYC

Weston was stricken by polio in 1911 that left his left leg paralyzed. Unable to serve in uniform during World War I, he volunteered through the YMCA as a liaison to the British Army in Baghdad, bringing entertainment activities including art classes to the soldiers; he soon became the Official Painter for the British Army in the Middle East. These years impressed upon him the perils of food insecurity, famine and disease and he spent the rest of his life organizing humanitarian food relief efforts. Back in the US, Weston withdrew to a rustic cabin in the Adirondack Mountains, where he relished the quiet and communed with nature. The outbreak of World War II drew him to Washington DC, where he founded Food for Freedom to combat war-related famine abroad. After the war, he made a series of six paintings (1949 – 1952) of the construction of the United Nations complex in New York City. Unsurprisingly, the UN’s mission aligned perfectly with his personal philosophy of working cooperatively to create a more peaceful world; he believed the United Nations was the “greatest hope for a better world”. “Building the United Nations #1, Steelwork of Secretariat” is bathed in the golden light of optimism. Weston painted in a modernist style, showcasing technology that moves civilization forward. His construction scene is filled with activity as the structure rises up towards the sky, with laborers working together to make this dream building a reality. In addition to his food relief activities, Weston also advocated tirelessly for government support of the arts and the creation of the National Endowment for the Arts; the NEA became a reality when legislation passed in 1965.
