Zinc Sculpture in America, 1850-1950

By: Carol A. Grissom

Introduced in the United States as a new material for statuary in the mid-nineteenth century, zinc has properties that allowed replication at low cost. It was used to produce modestly priced serial sculpture displayed throughout the nation on fountains, public monuments, and war memorials. Imitative finishes created the illusion of more costly bronze, stone, or polychrome wood. This first comprehensive overview of American zinc sculpture is interdisciplinary, engaging aspects of art history, popular culture, local history, technology, and art conservation. Included is a generously illustrated catalogue presenting more than eight hundred statues organized by type: trade figures and Indians, gods and goddesses, fountain figures, animals, famous men, military figures, firemen, cemetery memorials, and religous subjects. The compilation of data on these statues will be valuable to scholars, filling the current void in research libraries. The author's experience as a conservator will also make the an essential resource for historic preservationists seeking to repair statues now damaged by years of outdoor exposure. This book has 555 illustrations, 354 of which are in color. Carol Grissom is Senior Objects Conservator at the Smithsonian's Museum Conservation Institute.

African Economic Reform

The External Dimension

By: Carol Lancaster

This study proposes a new initiative involving the cancellation of concessional rescheduling of public bilateral debt of reforming African countries through a new international mechanism that would replace existing ones such as the Paris Club and the World Bank Consultative Groups. Each of a series of Adjustment Review Consortia would bring together representatives of donor and creditor governments international aid and development agencies, and an African government to coordinate debt relief, aid, and reform initiatives. Properly implements, ARCs would contribute to building a system in which economic need and performance, not political favoritism, play the principal roles in how debt and external financing in general are managed.
