Claire Van Vliet (born 1933 in Ottawa, Ontario) is a fine artist, illustrator and typographer who founded Janus Press in San Diego, California in 1955. Van Vliet received the Bachelor of Arts in 1952 from San Diego State College, and the Master of Fine Arts from Claremont Graduate School in 1954. In 1955 she moved to Europe, shortly after her first publications, then returned to the United States in 1957. She worked for John Anderson of Lanston Monotype Company in Philadelphia before moving to Madison, Wisconsin. She made several trips back to Europe and continued her education in hand typesetting and compositing. She taught drawing and printmaking classes at the Philadelphia Museum School of Art and Philadelphia Museum College of Art from 1965-1966. In 1967 she established a typographic workshop in Madison, Wisconsin. The Janus Press has been based in Newark, Vermont since Van Vliet settled there in 1966. Ruth Fine, recently retired curator of special projects in modern art at the National Gallery of Art, Washington, DC, currently is the consulting curator and lead author of the National Gallery’s multi-volume catalogue raisonné of Mark Rothko's works on paper. She is also engaged with research on Jasper Johns' personal archive of proofs for his prints, recently acquired by the Gallery, where selections were on view in the 2010 exhibition Editions with Additions: Working Proofs by Jasper John. Fine coordinated the Gallery’s 1994 catalogue raisonné of Roy Lichtenstein's prints (revised 2002) and was co-coordinator of the 1999 Georgia O'Keeffe catalogue raisonné, undertaken with the Georgia O'Keeffe Foundation. She also coordinated The Dorothy and Herbert Vogel Collection: Fifty Works for Fifty States project, following their donations to the National Gallery. From 1980 through 2002, as curator of modern prints and drawings at the National Gallery, Fine organized exhibitions of work by American artists including Romare Bearden, Helen Frankenthaler, Jasper Johns, Roy Lichtenstein, John Marin, and Georgia O'Keeffe; contemporary print-publishing workshops Crown Point Press, Gemini G.E.L., and Graphicstudio, U.S.F.; and the collections of Lessing J. Rosenwald and Dorothy and Herbert Vogel. She has contributed essays to catalogues for exhibitions of art by Mel Bochner, Richard Diebenkorn, Robert Rauschenberg, James Rosenquist, and James McNeill Whistler, and about Tyler Graphics and The Brandywine Print Workshop, among others. From 1972 to 1980, Fine served as curator of Lessing J. Rosenwald's collection of prints and drawings, a major gift to the National Gallery that was housed at Rosenwald's Alverthorpe Gallery in Jenkintown, PA, until his death in 1979., The Stinehour Press, 1992, 2.5, New York: Stativ, 2006. Signed/Inscribed. Softcover. NF; signed/inscribed on title page by Michael Somoroff. Oblong, black, illustrated wraps with color image and French flaps. 115 pp. with color photographs throughout. A Rothko Chapel Book. In 2006, the Rothko Chapel in Houston, Texas, invited Michael Somoroff to place his majestic sculptural installation, Illumination I on the campus grounds. It was the first such invitation ever made by the Chapel, and the only addition to it since Barnet Newman's Broken Obelisk was placed there some 30 years prior. This book tells the story of this groundbreaking installation, from its conceptualization through its unveiling--in formal and documentary photographs, diagrams and studies. The art historian and author of Mark Rothko's catalogue raisonné, David Anfam, contributes a text, as do Rothko's son, Christopher Rothko, and the artist. Michael Somoroff was born in New York City in 1957. He works in photography, installation, filmmaking, writing and a variety of new media technologies. His work is in the collections of The Museum of Modern Art, New Yor; The Houston Museum of Fine Arts; and the Smithsonian Institution, Washington, D.C., Stativ, 2006, 4, New Haven/London: Yale University Press/National Gallery of Art, Washington, 1999. .
