paragraph: Edward Hutchinson (captain)

paragraph: Edward Hutchinson (1613–1675) (sometimes referred to as "junior" to differentiate him from his uncle) was the oldest child of Massachusetts and Rhode Island magistrate William Hutchinson and his wife, the dissident minister Anne Hutchinson. He is noted for making peace with the authorities following his mother's banishment from Massachusetts during the Antinomian Controversy, returning to Boston, and ultimately dying in the service of the colony that had treated his family so harshly.

paragraph: Born in Alford, in eastern England, Hutchinson sailed to New England at the age of 20, a year ahead of the remainder of his family. Following the events of the Antinomian Controversy, he, his father, and his uncle Edward were among 23 signers of a compact for a new government which they soon established at Portsmouth on Rhode Island. Young Hutchinson only remained there a short while, and had returned to Boston to occupy the family house. Here he had 11 children with two wives.

paragraph: He became a charter member of the Military Company of Massachusetts (today known as the Ancient and Honorable Artillery Company of Massachusetts in 1638 and became its lieutenant (second in command) in 1654. He was elected the Company's captain (commanding officer) in 1657 and served a one-year term.

paragraph: He also served as a Deputy to the General Court in 1658, and in this capacity voiced his opposition to the persecution of the Quakers that took place in the late 1650s.

paragraph: During King Phillips War, in 1675, Captain Hutchinson and Captain Thomas Wheeler were given an assignment to negotiate with the Nipmuck Indians to keep them out of the war. While searching for the tribal chief, Muttawmp, the two captains, with a company of men, were ambushed, and both were wounded. Two weeks later Hutchinson died from his wounds, and was interred in a cemetery in Marlborough, Massachusetts.

paragraph: Hutchinson is the ancestor of three United States presidents, as well as the loyalist governor of Massachusetts, Thomas Hutchinson.

paragraph: Section::::Early life.

paragraph: Baptized in Alford, Lincolnshire, England on 28 May 1613, Edward Hutchinson was the son of cloth merchant and magistrate William Hutchinson and his famed wife Anne Hutchinson. Edward was the oldest of the Hutchinson's 15 children, and in 1633 when Edward's pregnant mother realized that she was going to emigrate from England, she allowed Edward to travel to New England a year ahead of the family, and he sailed aboard the "Griffin" with his uncle Edward Hutchinson (Sr.) and wife, also being on the same ship as the Reverend John Cotton who soon became teaching minister in the Boston church. While Edward's uncle, Edward, was admitted to the Boston church in 1633, the young Edward wasn't admitted until 10 August 1634, just about the time that the remainder of the family arrived in Boston from England.

paragraph: In 1636 Hutchinson sailed back to England, and while there he married Katherine Hamby, likely in Lawford in Essex. His father-in-law, Robert Hamby, had been a legal counselor in Ipswich. With his wife, he returned to the colonies later the same year, and it was about this time that his mother became embroiled in the events of the Antinomian Controversy. As the controversy came to a peak, his mother was brought to trial in November 1637, then sentenced to banishment by the General Court of the colony. She was not allowed to leave, however, until enduring a second trial in March 1638, this time by the clergy, and she was held in detention in the interim. Many members of the colony who shared the views of Mrs. Hutchinson, including Edward, met on 7 March 1638 to sign a document establishing a new government, and most of the signers left the Massachusetts colony shortly thereafter to go build houses on Aquidneck Island. Edward was one of the few family members who stayed in Boston in March, and was present at his mother's church trial, when he argued on her behalf that she should not be condemned for holding opinions in which she was not yet settled. It was then deemed by the church that since he showed natural love for his mother, that he too should be admonished, along with a few others who were also close to Mrs. Hutchinson, and by removing the dissent from the family members, the ministers were able to proceed with the excommunication against her.

paragraph: Hutchinson likely accompanied his mother and siblings from Boston to Aquidneck Island in early April 1638, and there he became one of the founding settlers of the island community that was initially named Pocasset, but was soon renamed Portsmouth. However, since no charges were ever preferred against him by the Massachusetts authorities, he soon returned to Boston, and he and his young family became the residents and caretakers of the family house there. Ownership of the house went to his uncle, Richard Hutchinson, ironmonger of London, who never came to New England, but had many land and business interests there.

paragraph: Hutchinson's mother, Anne Hutchinson, and many of his younger siblings perished in an Indian massacre in New Netherland in August 1643, and he likely learned of this in early September, about the same time that Governor John Winthrop recorded it in his journal. It is not clear when he learned that one of his siblings survived the attack and was taken hostage, but it was two and a half years after her capture that Winthrop wrote, "A daughter of Mistress Hutchinson was carried away by the Indians near the Dutch." After several years of living with the Siwanoy natives, Edward's young sister Susanna was released in an exchange, and brought back to Boston. While no record has survived detailing which of her siblings took her in, Kirkpatrick believes that it was Edward's house where she came to live.

paragraph: Hutchinson's wife had seven children before her untimely death about 1650, and he soon after married the widow Abigail Button. Court records from the time show that in 1656 Abigail testified against Eunice Cole at her witch trial, Cole likely being the only woman convicted of witchcraft in New Hampshire.

paragraph: Section::::Later life.

paragraph: In the late 1650s strict laws had been enacted against the Quakers by the Massachusetts colony, but this didn't prevent Quaker evangelists from coming into the colony from outside. It was during this period that Hutchinson served for a year as a Deputy to the General Court from Boston, elected in 1658. While the magistrates were the most zealous enforcers of the laws against the Quakers, the general population was more sympathetic to their plight, and the Deputies, of which Hutchinson was one, made their opposition to the law known. Hutchinson's first cousin, 11-year-old Patience Scott, the daughter of Providence Quakers Richard and Katherine Scott, had arrived in Boston unaccompanied. It then became Captain Hutchinson's "undertaking to send her home," and the Court took no action against her. Historian James Savage stated that Hutchinson "deserves honor for his firmness in opposing cruelty to the Quakers," and he was also tolerant of the Baptists, signing a 1668 petition for the release of those who were imprisoned.

paragraph: In November 1659, Hutchinson was admitted to an equal share with the seven original purchasers of the Humphrey Atherton land investment company for lands in the "Narragansett Country" (later North Kingstown, Rhode Island), with his share being about 1000 acres. The land was in disputed territory, with the three colonies of Connecticut, Rhode Island and Plymouth all staking claims to the area. Whether Hutchinson actually occupied his land is uncertain, but he and two others were appointed by the Connecticut colony as selectmen to the area which was given the name Wickford in 1663. Hutchinson's youngest living sister, Susanna, with her husband John Cole, left Boston to become caretakers of his property, and they ended up staying there for the remainder of their lives.

paragraph: Section::::Military service.

paragraph: Hutchinson was active in the militia of the colony. In 1638, he was one of the charter member of the Military Company of Massachusetts (today known as the Ancient and Honorable Artillery Company of Massachusetts) and in 1641 he was a junior sergeant in the company. In 1654 he was elected and commissioned as the lieutenant (second in command) of the Company and, three years later, in 1657, he was elected as the captain (commanding officer) of the Company.

paragraph: As a captain in the militia, Hutchinson was called to active service during King Philip's War in 1675, and was given command of a company which fell under the overall command of his brother-in-law, Major Thomas Savage. On 28 July 1675 he co-lead an expedition with Captain Thomas Wheeler and a small company of men to negotiate a peace settlement with the Nipmuc sachem Muttawmp. The natives evaded the party, however, until on the 2nd of August, near the town of Brookfield, the captains and their men were ambushed in what became known as Wheeler's Surprise. Hutchinson was seriously wounded during the engagement, and Wheeler was also wounded, but the survivors managed to get to a garrison house in Brookfield, where they spent over a week, while being continuously attacked by the natives.

paragraph: With some reinforcements, they eventually escaped from Brookfield, and Wheeler later recounted Hutchinson's fate: "We came to Marlborough on August the 14th when Capt. Hutchinson being not recovered of his wounds before his coming from Brookfield, and over-tired with his long journey, by reason of his weakness, soon grew worse, and more dangerously ill, and on the 19th day of the same month, died, and was there the next day after buried..." He was buried in the town cemetery, now the Springhill Cemetery, where a marker was erected in his honor in 1926. Commenting on his giving his life for the cause of the Massachusetts colony, historian Oliver Roberts noted that "he, who, with his mother, was persecuted, poured out his blood in the service of that uncharitable country."

paragraph: Section::::Family.

paragraph: Hutchinson had 11 children with two wives. His first wife was Katherine Hamby (Hanby/Hambie/Hemby) whom he married shortly after 19 October 1636 (the date of the marriage license), probably at Lawford, Essex, England. Katherine was baptized at St. Matthews parish in Ipswich, Suffolk on 10 December 1615, the daughter of Robert Hamby and Elizabeth Arnold, her father being a "counsellor at law in Ipswich, in England."

paragraph: Of the seven children of Edward and Katherine, Elishua was baptized in Boston on 5 November 1637 and probably died young, and Elizabeth (1639-1728) married Edward Winslow, the son of John Winslow and Mary Chilton, and grandson of Mayflower passenger James Chilton. Elisha (1641-1717) married first Hannah Hawkins, and second Elizabeth (Clark) Freak, and had 12 children. Anne (1643-1717) married first Samuel Dyre (Dyer), the son of William Dyer and Mary Barrett, then married second Daniel Vernon, and had a total of 11 children with both husbands. William, baptized 18 January 1645 and Katherine, baptized 14 May 1648 both probably died young. Susanna (1649-after 1716) married Nathaniel Coddington, the son of Rhode Island Governor William Coddington and his wife Anne Brinley, and the couple had six known children.

paragraph: Katherine died sometime after 10 June 1649 when her last child was born, but by 1650 when Hutchinson was married to his second wife. His second wife was Abigail (Fermayes) Button, the daughter of Alice (Blessing) Fermayes (or Vermais), and widow of Robert Button. The oldest child of this marriage was Edward, who was born 4 January 1651 and died unmarried in 1692. Katherine, born in 1653, married Henry Bartholomew and was still living about 1730; and Benjamin, born at Boston 2 June 1656 probably died young. The youngest child of this marriage was Hannah, born at Boston 16 May 1658, who married Peter Walker, probably at Taunton; the couple had six children.

paragraph: Descendants of Hutchinson, through his son Elisha, include United States Presidents Franklin D. Roosevelt, George H. W. Bush and George W. Bush, as well as the loyalist governor of the Province of Massachusetts Bay, Thomas Hutchinson.

paragraph: Lionel Percy Smythe

paragraph: Lionel Percy Smythe (4 September 1839 in London – July 1918) was a British artist, and etcher.

paragraph: Section::::Life and work.

paragraph: Lionel Percy Smythe was the illegitimate son of Percy Clinton Sydney Smythe, 6th Viscount Strangford and Katherine Benham (later Mrs Wyllie). He was born in London in 1839 and spent his early years in France, where his younger sister and brother were born. The family returned to London in 1843 and lived in Gloucester Crescent, Camden). Smythe was educated at King's College School. He was also partly educated in France and spent holidays there at Wimereux in Normandy with his stepfather William Morrison Wyllie and family. He trained in art at the Heatherley School of Fine Art. He was half brother of the artists William Lionel Wyllie and Charles William Wyllie.

paragraph: Smythe exhibited at the Royal Academy from 1863 (becoming a member in 1911) and the Royal Institute of Painters in Watercolours from 1881 (becoming a member in 1880) - he eventually transferred his allegiance to the Royal Watercolour Society in 1892, becoming a member in 1894. Smythe painted rural landscapes, genre and maritime scenes, people and animals in both oils and watercolours, and became associated with the Idyllists.

paragraph: Smythe and his wife Alice made frequent trips to France and eventually settled in Normandy in 1879, in an old Napoleonic fortress on the coast at Wimereux - until the building was inundated by the sea. Subsequently, they moved, in 1882, to the "Château d'Honvault" on a hill between Wimereux and Boulogne. The couple had three children, of whom Minnie Smythe also became a painter. Smythe lived and worked here until his death in 1918, the countryside and rural life of the area becoming the main inspiration for his art.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: Tsugaru Chikatari was the fourth son of Kuroda Naoyuki, "daimyō" of Kururi Domain in Kazusa Province, (part of present-day Chiba Prefecture) and was born in that domain’s Edo residence. In 1805, he was adopted as the posthumous heir of Tsugaru Tsunetoshi (1789–1805), the 7th Lord of Kuroishi, a 4000 "koku" "hatamoto" dependency of Hirosaki Domain. However, in April 1809, the Tokugawa shogunate raised the status of Kuroishi to a full "han" as part of its agreement with Tsugaru Yasuchika over dispatch of troops to guard the Ezo frontier, and Chikatari saw his revenues increase by an additional 6000 "koku", and allowing him to join the ranks of the "daimyō".

paragraph: In 1825, he retired, turning administration of the domain to his adopted son, Tsugaru Yukitsugu. He died in 1849 at the clan’s residence in Edo. His grave is at the clan temple of Shinryō-in (a subsidiary of Kan'ei-ji) in Taitō-ku, Tokyo.

paragraph: David Prentice

paragraph: David Prentice (4 July 1936 – 7 May 2014) was an English artist and former art teacher. In 1964 he was one of the four founder members of Birmingham's Ikon Gallery.

paragraph: Prentice's work features in the collections of the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery, the Art Institute of Chicago, the Albright-Knox Art Gallery in Buffalo, New York and the Museum of Modern Art in New York City. Ashmolean Oxford, Bass Museum Miami, House of Commons Acquisition Committee Westminster, Betty Parsons New York, The Rank Organisation, Miami Dade Community College Miami, Arts Council of Great Britain and many private collections. He is four times winner of the Sunday Times Watercolour Competition - First Prize 1990, Second Prize 1999 and third prizes in 1996 and 2007.

paragraph: He was married to the quilt artist Dinah Prentice and since 1990 had lived and worked in Malvern, Worcestershire.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: Prentice was born in Solihull and educated at Moseley Road Secondary School of Art, Birmingham between 1949 and 1952, and Birmingham School of Art between 1952 and 1957. In 1957 he did National Service in the Royal Artillery, returning to the Birmingham School of Art to teach from 1959. Prentice taught at the Faculty of Birmingham Polytechnic between 1971 and 1986, initially in charge the experimental workshop, and has been a visiting artist at Trent Polytechnic, the University of Nottingham, the Ruskin School and the Birmingham Institute of Art and Design. -

paragraph: Prentice held solo exhibitions at the Royal Birmingham Society of Artists in 1961 and 1963, and in the same year as the second featured in the "Four Letter Art" exhibition organised by Trevor Denning. Prentice has since held over forty solo exhibitions.

paragraph: It was at Prentice's 1963 solo exhibition that his painting "Kate and the Waterlilies" was bought by Angus Skene for £25, with Prentice delivering the painting to Skene's house in Selly Oak strapped to the side of his Vespa scooter. Over the subsequent meal the two discussed the lack of support provided to local artists by Birmingham's existing galleries, and decided to start a new organisation to "invigorate the city with progressive ideas about art". Prentice recruited three fellow artists from the School of Art - Jesse Bruton, Robert Groves and Sylvani Merilion - and in 1965 the four established the Ikon Gallery in a kiosk in Birmingham's Bull Ring. Prentice later said of Ikon's founders:

paragraph: Ambrose Madtha

paragraph: Ambrose Madtha (2 November 1955 – 8 December 2012) was the Roman Catholic archbishop of Naissus and the Nuncio to Ivory Coast. He was the sixth Indian to become an Apostolic Nuncio.

paragraph: Section::::Early life.

paragraph: Ambrose Madtha was born in Belthangady, on 2 November 1955 to Joseph Madtha and Mary Madtha. Joseph Madtha (circa 1917 - 28 January 2007), son of David Madtha and Angeline Madtha was a humble and religious man. He lived a decent life with his wife Mary Madtha near the Most Holy Redeemer Church, Belthangady. He did his schooling at Church Higher Primary School, Belthangady which was near his home.

paragraph: Section::::Spiritual life.

paragraph: Madtha was ordained as a priest on 28 March 1982. He entered diplomatic service in June 1990 and served apostolic nunciatures in Ghana, El Salvador, Georgia, Albania and Republic of China(Taiwan).

paragraph: Madtha was ordained archbishop on 27 July 2008, two months after his appointment. Around 4,000 people attended the ceremony at St Joseph's Cathedral, Lucknow, capital of Uttar Pradesh state, 500 kilometers southeast of New Delhi. They included a 12-member delegation from Taiwan, where Madtha was previously posted as Chargé d'affaires at the Taipei-based Apostolic Nunciature in China.

paragraph: On 8 May 2008 Madtha became Apostolic Nuncio in the Ivorian diplomatic corps after arriving in 2008. On 27 July 2008 he was ordained bishop by Cardinal Jean-Louis Tauran, president of the Pontifical Council for Interreligious Dialogue with Archbishop Albert D'Souza of Agra and Bishop Gerald J. Mathias of Lucknow as co-ordainers. More than 15 bishops from India and abroad joined the ceremony along with 300 priests and 600 nuns. On this occasion the new archbishop Madtha thanked people in Hindi, English, French and Chinese. Madtha also speaks Albanian, German, Italian, Kannada, Konkani, Russian and Spanish.

paragraph: Madtha tried to play a behind-the-scenes mediating role during Ivory Coast’s 2010-11 political crisis when the previous ruler, Laurent Gbagbo, refused to step down even though Alassane Ouattara was declared winner of presidential elections. The Catholic church was put in a delicate position since some of the country’s bishops favoured Laurent Gbagbo, who comes from the country’s majority Christian south. Alassane Ouattara is from the largely Muslim north. Ivory Coast and the Vatican agreed on "the role that the Catholic Church can offer for the good of the country, by encouraging and promoting human rights, dialogue and national reconciliation", the Vatican said in a statement at the time.

paragraph: Madtha was committed to finding a peaceful solution to the post-election crisis that out-going President, Laurent Gbagbo opposed, to the current head of state, Alassane Ouattara. During the attack of the forces of Alassane Ouattara, backed by French troops, the Presidential Residence where Laurent Gbagbo was barricaded, Madtha remained in the Nunciature, located at 200–330 meters from the palace, where Fides had contacted him. The Ivory Coast had not yet recovered from the political confrontation between the two factions. One of the areas most affected by latent insecurity for the presence of armed groups was precisely the west where Madtha died. He was to celebrate a Mass in Duékoué, a town on the border with Liberia, where during the crisis of 2010-2011 more than 3,000 civilians were massacred. In July 2012 several people were killed in the assault of a refugee camp in Nahibly, at the entrance of Duékoué. The Ivorian press mentioned that Madtha made a personal commitment on several occasions to come to the aid of refugees welcomed in a Catholic parish and other structures in the area.

paragraph: Section::::Death and funeral.

paragraph: Madtha, died on Saturday, 8 December 2012 in a car accident in the west of the Ivory Coast. The car carrying Madtha was involved in an accident on the road Man - Biankouma. He was returning to Man, where he spent the night, from the village of Odienné, where he presided over a Mass. The driver was also killed in the accident while the secretary and a religious woman were slightly wounded. The body of Madtha arrived on Sunday, 9 December 2012, at the seat of the archbishopric in Abidjan.

paragraph: Madtha's family and the parish priest of Belthangady parish, where Madtha belonged, sent an official request to the Apostolic Nunciature to India about their interest to perform the final rites at Most Holy Redeemer Church, Belthangady, which was granted. The body was brought to Mangalore by a special flight from Ivory Coast at around 1 pm on 15 December 2012, after a delay of about 24 hours due to a technical snag in the flight at Ethiopia. A public homage that was scheduled at Mangalore on Friday 13 December had to be cancelled due to the delay in flight. A requiem Mass was offered at Rosario Cathedral the same evening. On 15 December 2012 the remains Madtha were laid to rest amidst a gathering of nearly 3,500 people. Madtha's remains were laid to rest inside the church next to the altar. The funeral Mass was led by Apostolic Nuncio to India Salvatore Pennacchio with bishop of Mangalore Aloysius Paul D'Souza as the concelebrant. Auxiliary bishop of Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Delhi Franco Mulakkal read out the message by Pope Benedict XVI. In the message, the Pope said that as an archbishop, Madtha had put in good efforts to promote peace and unity. "We have lost a gem of a person. The Church has lost a good ambassador," the message stated. Ivory Coast minister of social affairs Anne Desiree Oulopo, president of Episcopal Conference Alexis Touabli Youlo and Archbishop of Abidjan Dr. Jean-Pierre Kutwa were among the delegates present. Bishop Lawrence Mukkuzhy from the diocese of Belthangady, Bishop Dr. Oswald Lewis from diocese of Jaipur, Bishop Gerald Isaac Lobo from Diocese of Udupi, Bishop Anthony Swamy from Diocese of Chikmagalur, Bishop Geevarghese Mar Divannasios of Diocese of Puttur, were among the other bishops present. Oscar Fernandes and his wife Blossom, MLA Vasanth Bangera and others paid their last respects.

paragraph: Cecil Pryor

paragraph: Cecil Lemuel Pryor, Jr. (October 7, 1947 – September 13, 2005) was an American football player. He played professional football for the Montreal Alouettes of the Canadian Football League in 1973 and for the Memphis Grizzlies of the World Football League from 1974 to 1975. He played college football at the University of Michigan from 1967 to 1969.

paragraph: Section::::Early years.

paragraph: Cecil Pryor was born in Nueces County, Texas, in 1947, the son of Cecil L. Pryor, Sr., and Fannie McCuller. He was the eldest of four children including his brother, Rundy Pryor and his two sisters, Leah Pryor and Barbara Pryor (Tatum). He was raised in Corpus Christi, Texas, and attended King High School. The major schools in Texas did not recruit African-American players at the time, and Pryor opted instead to play football at the University of Michigan, where a former coach Y C McNease had become an assistant coach under Bump Elliott.

paragraph: Section::::Michigan.

paragraph: He played for the Michigan Wolverines football team from 1967 to 1969. He was recruited as a quarterback, but began his collegiate career as a linebacker for the 1967 Michigan Wolverines football team. As a junior, he started eight games at defensive right end and one at offensive right end for the last Michigan football team coached by Bump Elliott.

paragraph: Bo Schembechler took over as Michigan's head coach for Pryor's senior season. Pryor started all 11 games at right defensive end for the 1969 Michigan Wolverines football team and also started two games at the end position on offense. He played in the 1969 Michigan vs. Ohio State football game, considered one of the biggest upsets in college football history. The unranked Wolverines defeated the No. 1 Buckeyes by a 24-12 score. The day before the game, a fight broke out between players from the two teams as they passed each other in the tunnel at Michigan Stadium. Schembechler and Woody Hayes separated the players, and Schembechler later wrote that he knew his players no longer feared the Buckeyes when he heard Cecil Pryor yell, "And we're gonna kick your ass tomorrow, too!" Pryor proved to be one of the defensive standouts of the game. "Sports Illustrated" noted at the time: "The Wolverines' ends, [Mike] Keller and Cecil Pryor, kept [Rex] Kern so well contained that he gained only 28 yards in 11 runs after his initial 25-yard effort." Pryor also recovered an Ohio State fumble in the final minute to seal the victory. Interviewed in 1993, Pryor recalled, "That was probably the greatest game I ever participated in my life, and I had been playing since the fourth grade."

paragraph: With the victory over Ohio State, Michigan won the Big Ten Conference's spot in the 1970 Rose Bowl. Pryor showed his sense of humor in the pregame introductions for the Rose Bowl. Teammate Jim Brandstatter recalled, "When it was Cecil's time for his intro, he looked directly into the camera, and with a serious, professorial scowl said, 'Cecil Pryor, defensive end, Corpus Christi, Texas, senior, majoring in nuclear physics.'" According to Brandstatter, "Cecil hadn't been anywhere near the physics building in his four years at Michigan." On the field, the team learned shortly before the game that coach Schembechler had suffered a heart attack the night before the game and was in the hospital. The team was reported to be "an emotional wreck", with Pryor crying at the news. Playing in his final game for Michigan, Pryor led the team with 15 tackles, but the Wolverines's offense was unable to get on track, and Michigan lost by a score of 10-3. After the game, a writer in "The Michigan Daily" wrote that the Pryor had been accused of "dogging it" in the past, but not against USC: "His detractors should have seen him in the Rose Bowl. Putting his awesome physical talents to use Pryor was a demon on defense."

paragraph: Pryor was selected in 1969 as a second-team All-Big Ten Conference player. He was also selected to play in the 10th annual Coaches All-American football game in June 1970. During his collegiate career at Michigan, Pryor totaled 106 tackles, nine tackles for loss, three pass breakups and four fumble recoveries.

paragraph: Section::::Professional football.

paragraph: Pryor was drafted in the fifth round of the 1970 NFL Draft by the Green Bay Packers. He was cut by the Packers in early September 1970 prior to the opening of the 1970 NFL season. He also tried out with, and was cut by, the Philadelphia Eagles.

paragraph: In 1971, Pryor attended pre-season camp with the New York Giants, but he was cut by the team in August. He joined the Chicago Bears in 1972 and remained with the team through the pre-season. However, he was cut in early September 1972.

paragraph: In May 1973, he signed to play for the Montreal Alouettes in the Canadian Football League. He played for the Alouettes under head coach Marv Levy as part of the team's starting front four during the 1973 CFL season. He sustained a cheek injury in a game against Ottawa and was waived through the league and dropped in early September 1973.

paragraph: Pryor played with the Memphis Grizzlies of the World Football League during the 1974 and 1975 seasons.

paragraph: Section::::Later years.

paragraph: After retiring from football, Pryor returned to Ann Arbor to complete his degree. He operated a leasing equipment company for 10 years, building it into "one of the most successful minority-owned companies in the state." He entered the Ford Motor Company dealer training program in the 1990s and purchased a dealership in Jackson, Michigan. Pryor was a co-owner of Jackson Ford for over 10 years. He also served on the University of Michigan's Board in Control of Intercollegiate Athletics for 12 years.

paragraph: Pryor was married to Jan Pryor, and they had three daughters, Melissa, Cecilia, and Hillary. Pryor died in September 2005 at the University of Michigan Hospital. He was 57 years old.

paragraph: Francisco Tenamaztle

paragraph: Francisco Tenamaztle (fl. 1540s–1550s), also Tenamaxtlan, Tenamaxtli or Tenamaxtle, was a leader of the Caxcan Indians in Mexico during the Mixton War of 1540–1542. He was later put on trial in Spain. With the support of Bartolomé de las Casas he defended the justice of his cause by appealing to King Carlos I.

paragraph: Section::::Background.

paragraph: The first contact of the Caxcan and other indigenous peoples of northwestern Mexico with the Spanish, was in 1529 when Nuño Beltrán de Guzmán set forth from Mexico City with 300–400 Spaniards and 5,000 to 8,000 Aztec and Tlaxcaltec allies on a march through the future states of Nayarit, Jalisco, Durango, Sinaloa, and Zacatecas. Over a six-year period Guzman conducted frequent violent slave raids throughout Northern Mexico, enslaving thousands of Indians. Guzmán and his lieutenants founded towns and Spanish settlements in the region, called Nueva Galicia, including Guadalajara, the first temporary site of which was at Tenamaztle’s home of Nochistlán, Zacatecas. The Spaniards encountered increased resistance as they moved further from the complex hierarchical societies of Central Mexico and attempted to force Indians into servitude through the encomienda system.

paragraph: Tenamaztle was baptized a Catholic sometime after Guzman’s expedition and given the Christian name Francisco. He became "Lord Tlatoani of Nochistlan," an urban center and region in the southern part of Zacatecas. The Caxcan Indians are often considered part of the Chichimeca, a generic term used by the Spaniards and Aztecs for all the nomadic and semi-nomadic Native Americans living in the deserts of northern Mexico. However, the Caxcanes seem to have been sedentary, depending upon agriculture for their livelihood and living in permanent towns and settlements. They were, perhaps, the most northerly of the agricultural, town-and-city dwelling peoples of interior Mexico.

paragraph: Presumably at the same time as his baptism, Tenamaztle also swore allegiance to the Spanish crown and was confirmed in his position and any property he owned. Spanish rule, however, was oppressive and in mid-1540 the Caxcanes and their allies, the Zacatecos and possibly other Chichimeca tribes, revolted. The command structure of the Caxcanes is unknown but the most prominent leader who emerged was Tenamaztle.

paragraph: Section::::The Mixton War.

paragraph: The spark which set off the Míxton War was apparently the arrest of 18 rebellious Indian leaders and the hanging of nine of them in mid 1540. Later in the same year the Indians rose up to kill the encomendero Juan de Arze. Spanish authorities also became aware that the Indians were participating in "devilish" dances. After killing two Catholic priests, many Indians fled the encomiendas and took refuge in the mountains, especially on the hill fortress of Mixton. Acting Governor Cristobal de Oñate led a Spanish and Indian force to quell the rebellion. The Caxcanes killed a peace delegation of one priest and ten Spanish soldiers. Oñate attempted to storm Mixtón, but the Indians on the summit repelled his attack. Oñate then requested reinforcements from the capital, Mexico City.

paragraph: The Viceroy Antonio de Mendoza called upon the experienced conquistador Pedro de Alvarado to assist in putting down the revolt. Alvarado declined to await reinforcements and attacked Mixton in June 1541 with four hundred Spaniards and an unknown number of Indian allies. He was met there by an Indian army, estimated by the Spanish to number 15,000, under Tenamaztle and Don Diego, a Zacateco. The first attack of the Spanish was repulsed with ten Spaniards and many Indian allies killed. Subsequent attacks by Alvarado were also unsuccessful and on June 24 he was crushed when a horse fell on him. He subsequently died on July 4.

paragraph: Emboldened, the Indians led by Tenamaztle attacked Guadalajara in September but were repulsed. The Indian army retired to Nochistlan and other strongpoints. The Spanish authorities were now thoroughly alarmed and feared that the revolt would spread. They assembled a force of 450 Spaniards and 30 to 60 thousand Aztec, Tlaxcalan and other Indians and under Viceroy Mendoza invaded the land of the Caxcanes. With his overwhelming force, Mendoza reduced the Indian strongholds one-by-one in a war of no quarter. On November 9, 1541, he captured the city of Nochistlan and Tenamaztle—but the Indian leader later escaped. In early 1542 the stronghold of Mixton fell to the Spaniards and the rebellion was over. The aftermath of the Caxcan's defeat was that "thousands were dragged off in chains to the mines, and many of the survivors (mostly women and children) were transported from their homelands to work on Spanish farms and haciendas. By the viceroy's order men, women and children were seized and executed, some by cannon fire, some torn apart by dogs, and others stabbed. The reports of the excessive violence against civilian Indians caused the Council of the Indies to undertake a secret investigation into the conduct of the viceroy.

paragraph: With the defeat, Tenamaztle, Guaxicar, another leader, and their followers, retreated into the mountains of Nayarit where they lived in hiding for nine years. This area, primarily occupied by the Cora people, did not come under the complete control of the Spanish until 1722, the last bastion of Indian opposition to Spanish rule in Nueva Galicia. In 1551, Tenamaztle voluntarily surrendered to the Bishop of Nueva Galicia who brought him to Mexico City. After an investigation, on August 12, 1552 Spanish authorities established his identity as the leader of the Caxcanes in the Mixton War and on November 17 he was ordered to be sent for trial to Spain.

paragraph: Section::::Trial in Spain.

paragraph: In Spain, Tenamaztle was imprisoned in Valladolid and later took up residence in a Dominican monastery. Here he met Bartolomé de las Casas who helped him plead his case. The wheels of justice rolled slowly and it was July 1, 1555 before he had an opportunity to present his case to the King and the Council of the Indies.

paragraph: Tenamaztle’s strategy was to (1) establish that he was the rightful tlatoani of Nochistlan; (2) demonstrate that the Caxcan had received the Spanish in peace and that he should have all the rights of a vassal of the King of Spain; (3) accuse Nuño de Guzman, Cristobal de Oñate and Miguel de Ibarra of exploiting and murdering Indians; and, (4) declare that the war of the Caxcanes was "natural justice" because of the abuses of the Spaniards. He petitioned that his lands, wife, and children be returned to him.

paragraph: Tenamaztle asked the king to consider "the unparalleled wrongs and evils that the Caxcanes had endured at the hands of the Spanish" and said that the objective of the Indians was not to rebel but to "flee the inhuman cruelty to which they were subjected." The trial proceeded without decision for more than one year. The last known document related to the trial is dated August 7, 1556. Nothing more is known of the disposition of the case or of Tenamaztle. He probably died in Spain.

paragraph: William Umpleby Kirk

paragraph: William Umpleby Kirk (1843 - 1928) was a pioneer photographer of the late Victorian period. He was born in Hull and grew up in nearby Market Weighton where, in the early 1870s, he set up his first photographic studio. Examples of his work from that period have survived and are collected. In 1881 Kirk moved his family and his business to Cowes, Isle of Wight. Cowes at that time was the international centre of yachting, the sport of royalty, the rich and the privileged. At Cowes yachts were raced, bought, sold and shown off. The rich and the titled came to Cowes to meet each other, to play and to be seen. Kirk photographed the boats and their owners afloat and ashore. He specialised in marine photographs, in portraiture "e.g" a copy of Kirk's photograph of The Marquis of Ormonde is held in the British National Archives at Kew. He photographed groups at house parties, tutor groups and sports teams of Naval Cadets at Osborne Naval College. His photographs of the sumptuous interiors of large yachts remain to record that era.

paragraph: Kirk's reputation grew when he photographed Queen Victoria's yacht HMY Alberta at a speed of 10 knots entering Cowes Harbour; this is said to be one of the first British photographs of a vessel in motion. and to have earned him the Royal Warrant. Photographs by Kirk of the yachts "Bona" and "Ailsa", for example, were sold by auction at Christie's, New York and his work is sought by collectors.

paragraph: A collection of Kirk's work is held by the Isle of Wight County Council and is reviewed by Ian Dear. An extensive, but as yet uncatalogued collection of Kirk's original 8" x 10" glass plates is held by the Gallery, Classic Boat Museum, East Cowes.

paragraph: Eartha (musician)

paragraph: Eartha, born Eartha Moore in Los Angeles, California, is an American female eclectic, alternative soul singer, songwriter, and musician. The 5’11” sultry raspy-voice contralto who sports a honey-blonde buzz cut has garnered much attention in the underground club, urban, and indie circles. While her musical style is a hybrid of many and evades categorization, she credits her biological mother Zinna Moore, Stevie Wonder and Donny Hathaway as her main musical influences.

paragraph: Eartha, who is signed to indie label AFRT Music, founded by identical twins, Grammy Award-winning producers Glaurys Ariass and Helsa Ariass, debuted her first release "This I Know" in 2000. The fourteen track release captured a great deal of attention. As a result of the positive feedback on the "Love Jones" track, she released the Maxi-Single "Love Jones", which consists of five mixes in 2001. She then followed up with her sophomore project "Sidebars" in 2002, for which Eartha’s unique vocal style earned her two Grammy Award nominations and a win. She continued to write and contribute with musicians and producers, at times as a ghostwriter. On September 21, 2010, Eartha released her third CD album "Ink Dry Blue."

paragraph: Section::::Personal life.

paragraph: Eartha’s biological parents Philip L. and Zinna Moore, were forced to give her and older sister to a foster home when mother Zinna was stricken postpartum with a debilitating illness. At six months, Eartha was immediately placed in the home of foster parents Lucy and Otis Rushing. According to "Contemporary Musicians", both Eartha’s birth and foster fathers worked for the same company as machinists, unbeknownst to either. When Philip visited his daughters at the Rushing foster home for the very first time, he realized that Otis was his co-worker and foster father to his daughters. Eartha maintains that although being raised in a good home with a strong Christian upbringing, being raised in a foster home added to her isolation because “no matter how good things are, you still long to be with your [birth] family.”

paragraph: Eartha's birth mother Zinna died in 1995, followed by her foster mother Lucy in 1998. Each death had a profound effect on her music. Many of the tracks from the record "Sidebars" are a result of her losses.

paragraph: Section::::Early years.

paragraph: Eartha began her musical endeavors as a child. She started singing at the age of 5, and at the age of 6 she began playing the drums and piano. She often followed her biological mother, who was a guitarist and the church organist, to rehearsals. Eartha frequently jumped on the drums to accompany her mother’s playing. During such time, she received guidance and was inspired to pick up other instruments. During her visits to her grandmother’s house, Eartha practiced the piano. When she entered junior high school, and as a member of the Greater Bethany Apostolic Church in Los Angeles under the pastorship of Bishop R.W. McMurray, later succeeded by Bishop Noel Jones, she began leading praise and worship, playing the saxophone and trumpet, while continuing to strengthen her percussion skills. In college, she picked up the guitar, and soon thereafter she formed and directed the Voices of Vision church youth choir. Early on, she embraced classical, rock, hip hop, and alternative genres. Although Eartha’s musical exposure had been mostly gospel music, her artistry was leaning towards a very eclectic and diverse style that would eventually define her own.

paragraph: Section::::Education.

paragraph: Eartha attended High School in North Hills, CA where she took special interest in English Literature and Poetry. After graduation, she attended Los Angeles El Camino College and then Los Angeles Trade Technical College. Among her favorite authors are Poet Ranier Maria Rilke, Novelist Leo Tolstoy, and the Harlem Renaissance Novelist/Folklorist Zora Neal Hurston. Eartha is an avid reader, and maintains that one is never done with learning and education.

paragraph: Section::::Music career.

paragraph: This I Know

paragraph: In 2000, Eartha debuted her first album, "This I Know", which received critical and popular acclaim. The album features Eartha playing all of the instruments, and it covers a wide range of styles, from gospel to R&B and hip-hop. AMG's Jonathan Widran noted, "If this impressive recording is any indication, Eartha Moore stands poised to become a powerful presence..." With the support of DJs and college radio stations, the "Love Jones" track began a ground swell in niche circles, enough to warrant the release of the track as a single.

paragraph: Love Jones

paragraph: In 2001, upon release of the single, "Love Jones" landed on the Billboard Hot Dance Breakouts Maxi Singles chart at #2 position, the Urban Inspired Radio Waves at #24; Behind the Scenes WJKS at #1 and WNNN at #10. Shortly thereafter, other stations began adding and spinning the single. These were milestones of achievement, especially for an independent project with very limited distribution outlets. In efforts to counter the shortcomings that often challenge indies, she supported the label’s aggressive campaign to get the music heard at as many outlets as would welcome independent artists. Thus she performed at venues, including but not limited to, the BRE Conference in Atlanta, GA, Billboard Monitor Airplay in New York City, Unifest in Washington DC, Annual Unity Festival, Family Day in the Park in Columbus, GA, and Urban Network Power Jam in Palm Springs, sharing the stage with artists from Tommy Boy, EMI, Sony, Universal, and other labels. She also performed at other radio station sponsored concerts/festivals, clubs, school, churches, and private events across the country. She appeared at the NoHo LA 3rd Anniversary Party and Awards Celebration, which featured art exhibitions by Grammy Award winner Allee Willis, known for mega hits such as "Boogie Wonderland", "I’ll Be There for You", "September", "Neutron Dance", and "Beverly Hills Cop" soundtrack. Eartha performed for the TV tapings Fountain of Youth and Gospel Superfest 2000, both of which aired in over 40 markets in 2000 and 2001, respectively. She performed live for the ABC’s Louisville, KY early morning newscast. Other appearances included Lady of Soul Awards, the RockWalk induction of Melissa Etheridge and Run DMC among others. The release received considerable attention from record pools, noncommercial, and college radio. The label launched a national movie theater advertising campaign to showcase Eartha in over 15,000 theatre screens and 5,000,000 in-theatre spins of track “Never Change.” The track played in theatres before and after feature films. A national postering campaign at college campi in New York, Atlanta, LA, Chicago, Detroit, Miami, San Francisco, Houston, Philadelphia, and Washington DC was also launched to support the release. Concurrently, the album was capturing the attention of music editors and receiving great coverage. She was definitely making a name for herself. The consensus was that Eartha was indeed a truly gifted and innovative talent whose creative abilities offered great innovation and a promising future. Urban Network’s Music Editor Scott Galloway affirmed, “Eartha testifies with a heartfelt flava.” Billboard Magazine noted, “Interest appears to be building for This I Know, the debut release from this contemporary Christian/gospel artist Eartha…the girl can really sing.” Many artists have begun infusing all types of sounds into their music, making it diverse and often unpredictable. Eartha is leading the way. “In the arena of innovative, new sound there is always one step further you can go…and Eartha Moore has taken that step and has kept right on moving,” said Christian Moore (no relation to Eartha) from Dysonna Magazine. This I Know was noted among the best in recorded music.

paragraph: Sidebars

paragraph: In 2002, Eartha 's second album, "Sidebars", seemed initially not to do as well upon release. However, like This I Know, it too sold briskly in nontraditional outlets. The album made some coast to coast club noise via lead single "I’m Still Standing", mixed by hip-hop producer Chris Puram (Janet Jackson, Jermaine Dupri, Missy Elliott, Guns N' Roses) “Eartha’s inaugural opus will be in for quite a pleasant surprise. "Sidebars" is solid if not spectacular, as you’re treated to an eclectic mix of retro-soul music.” Although it received little airplay and moved slowly in traditional music outlets, registering only 52 scans according to Sound Scan, AFRT MUSIC reported selling 10,000 copies just two months after its September 2002 release. The feedback in underground circles was positive. While this is a relatively insignificant sales figure for a major artist, it is a very good showing for an indie outfit. The label sold the album at Eartha 's concerts, parties, clubs, and special events. Again, she worked an aggressive grassroots marketing campaign with her label to promote her music on an independent level. She appeared at the RockWalk induction of the Isley Brothers. She worked with DJs, college radio stations, movie theatres, clubs, restaurants, and other nonconventional music outlets across the country, this time launching a 100,000 postering campaign at over 50 colleges, 50,000 CD giveaways, T-shirts, caps, and other promotional items. The hard work paid off in a big way. Eartha earned a Grammy nomination for Best R&B Female Performance for the song "I'm Still Standing", sharing the field with Mary J. Blige, Ashanti, Aaliyah, and Jill Scott. However, it was her nomination for the "Sidebars" album for which Eartha won the Grammy Award in the Best Contemporary Soul Gospel Album category.

paragraph: A double nomination in two very distinct categories such as R&B and Gospel points to her broad and unique approach to music. She is able to combine biblically based lyrics with infectious dance tracks such that the appeal is quite diverse. Eartha credits her label with fostering this unique approach, something that may not have been possible at a larger and more traditional label. She notes that her label affords her the opportunity to produce her own work without artistic restrictions. Joseph Breuer, who engineered John Carpenter’s Vampires Movie Score and Soundtrack, IMX’s "Introducing IMX", Keith Washington’s "KW", Rhasaan Patterson’s "Love in Stereo", and B.B. King’s "Deuces Wild", said, “The thing I like about Eartha is that she doesn’t have to make it sound good through production because she does sound good.”

paragraph: Section::::Ghostwriting and literary contributions.

paragraph: Eartha contributed an advice column "Ask Eartha" to Fresh Magazine, which was geared towards issues that are important to teens and young adults. Teens typically wrote about things in pop culture such as music, films, artists, and media images that they found influential. Eartha has also provided ghostwriting services to several music and literary projects. Given her affinity for writing, she enjoys sharing her writing via her blogs Eartha’s Window at Blogger and Eartha’s Blog Spot at MySpace.

paragraph: Section::::Philanthropy.

paragraph: Eartha is a regular contributor to or participant of charitable events and worthy causes. Among many event participations, Eartha has appeared or performed for the Los Angeles Mission for the benefit of homeless mothers and children, Prison Ministries, Faithwalk Benefit Concert, Justice For Murdered Children Benefit Concert, Churches, Stay in School youth events, 102.7 KISS FM School Tours, Celebration of Champion Benefit for Baseball Hall of Famer Ernie Banks, and UCLA Charity Tennis Event.

paragraph: Section::::Controversy.

paragraph: Eartha stunned the music world when she got two Grammy nominations for her "Sidebars" album. Many wondered how a relatively unknown artist competing against more notable names, was able to garner the double Grammy nods, especially for I’m Still Standing in the R&B Best Female Vocal Performance category against a superstar lineup consisting of Mary J. Blige, Ashanti, Jill Scott, and Aaliyah. To that, Eartha said, “ I couldn’t even fathom being in this category with such divas.” It is customary for very popular artists to be nominated to this category. However, the Recording Academy criteria is based on the quality and innovation of the recorded music released and submitted for judging; the criteria is not based on artist popularity, radio play, media coverage, or music sales. While a win wasn’t likely for Eartha given the strong competition, “the Grammy selection process was set up so an artist in her situation would have a chance,” said Ron Roecker, Director of Communications for the National Academy of Recording Arts & Sciences. Eartha went on to win in the Best Contemporary Gospel Album for "Sidebars" at the 45th Annual Grammy Awards hosted in New York City on February 23, 2003.

paragraph: Section::::Early life.

paragraph: Chaumet was born during the 1914-1918 war, but her exact birth date and place are not known. She never knew her father. This situation affected her susceptibility in her youth years. Her mother got married again. Her step-father who was a lovely man took his wife and two daughters to Cannes to live there. The relationship between Chaumet and her step-father was intense. In 1942, she joined the CLAJ (Club loisirs action jeunesse) with her friend Jamy Bissérier and in 1943 she became the secretary of CLAJ which was associated with "Amitiés Chrétienne" in Col du Fanget in the French Alps. While she was working there, she saved the life of Jewish children (François Gelbert, Maurice and Charles Wrobel, Gilbert and Maxime Allouche) during the Second World War in France.

paragraph: Section::::Chaumet and SCI (Service Civil International).

paragraph: SCI was very important for Chaumet and her life. She paid attention to SCI's calls and she decided to be a volunteer on behalf of SCI. She was very active in France between 1945 and 1950 for this group and she continued to be a long-term volunteer in Algeria between 1951 and 1956. She married with the SCI secretary Emile Tanner.

paragraph: Ethelynde Smith

paragraph: Ethelynde Smith (May 28, 1888 — February 1978) was an American concert singer and botanical painter.

paragraph: Section::::Early life.

paragraph: Ethelynde Smith was born in Portland, Maine, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. George E. Smith. She trained as a singer in Boston and New York. After some local success, she was invited to be a soloist at the Maine Music Festival in 1916, singing alongside Geraldine Farrar.

paragraph: Section::::Career.

paragraph: Smith toured as a concert singer from the mid-1910s through the 1930s, performing as a guest soloist with orchestras in larger theatres and giving more intimate recitals to women's clubs and college audiences across the United States and Canada. She managed her own publicity, bookings, and other arrangements, and drove herself between engagements. During and after World War I, she presented a program of "old songs of the allied nations". She had restored German songs to her programs by 1928.

paragraph: Smith moved to Altadena in southern California and turned to the visual arts after an illness in 1943 affected her voice. She specialized in botanical watercolors. She participated in exhibitions at the Chicago Natural History Museum in 1949 and 1957, at the Museum of Arts and Sciences in Rochester, New York in 1957, at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art in 1965, and at Descanso Gardens in California in 1966. "The magnificent flower paintings by Ethelynde Smith at the Chicago Natural History Museum remind one of Georgia O'Keeffe's enormous, perfect blossoms", raved Eleanor Jewett of the "Chicago Tribune", adding that the exhibit was "informative as well as pleasing to the eye". Another critic, however, considered them more horticultural illustration than art.

paragraph: Smith was awarded an honorary degree from Aurora College in 1945, for helping to build the college's music library collection.

paragraph: Section::::Legacy.

paragraph: Ethelynde Smith died in 1978, aged 89 years. Her papers are archived at Aurora University.

paragraph: Section::::Academic and Professional Trajectory.:Family.

paragraph: Giovanni Gil was born in an entrepreneurial family, his parents are Marina Portillo and Luis Felipe Gil and has two brothers.

paragraph: The artist Giovanni Gil creates social initiative Soñar al Revés in 2003 in order to raise awareness, inform and bring the Salvadoran population closer with engraving, the arts in general and also to change the vision of Salvadorans to dream upside down with their reality, in other words that they aspire to make a change in their reality by taking the first step, which is according to the artist, dreaming. Its name is born of the technique of the engraving where everything that is drawn must be think the opposite way so that the impression is to the right. This initiative has exhibitions such as:

paragraph: Section::::Soñar al Revés [Dreaming Backwards].:Bajo Presión [Under Pressure].

paragraph: “The project aims to generate a participation among established, emerging and initiated (students) artists in the practice of engraving, with the purpose of transferring knowledge” - Giovanni Gil.This is how Giovanni Gil defines the project of which he is founder and director. Bajo Presión [Under Pressure] was born with a primary objective, which is to join the guild of artists in El Salvador, And not only to seek unity among them, but to retake the technique that was and has been practiced by great exhibitors of plastic art in history. Its name comes from the process of creating an engraving where pressure is exerted on two surfaces and an image is obtained, however it is also born, as described by one of the participants Juan Glower, by the group pressure that is generated where the opinions of all counts and one has to strip himself of his individuality to form part of a whole; among the techniques that this artist has encouraged to learn or develop in greater depth are Etching, Aquatint and Drypoint.“[...] The democratization of the visual arts is sought, both in visual consumption and material” - Giovanni Gil.

paragraph: This particular project brought together, in its first edition in 2013, 22 Salvadoran artists and students of engraving and was dedicated to the person who inspired Giovanni to undertake the arts, Carlos Cañas. .

paragraph: Bajo Presión 2014, reunited 32 artists and students, this is when the Secretary of Culture appointed the month of February 2014 as the Engraving month in El Salvador. In Bajo Presión 2015, 36 artists met, among them students, as on previous occasions, in order to support talented young Salvadorans to forge their careers in art.

paragraph: In 2016 the activity is carried out for the fourth consecutive year and the number of participants grows, being 44 artists and students, the technique that was worked on that occasion was Chalcography and Drypoint and the engravings were mostly illuminated . At the same time Silvia Elena Regalado, Secretary of Culture, re-denominates February as Engraving month in the context of the inauguration of Bajo Presión 2016 . Another important aspect that all the editions of Bajo Presión have is that the collection of engravings after its official presentation travel and are exhibited throughout El Salvador to bring art to the public.

paragraph: Section::::Artwork.

paragraph: "Giovanni Gil Is an excellent engraver worker in his various manifestations. His work provides us a link with his creativity, so that we are able to attend, visit and penetrate the grace of the line as depositary of the form. It expresses so sharply the strength and the delicacy. All of his product is therefore part of his sensitivity. To see his engraving, it is therefore to see his creativity."This is how Carlos Cañas described the line, style and work of Giovanni, who although his specialty is engraving also develops other areas of the visual arts and his style is more focused with contemporary art.
