Description of Pictures: America's Presidents Temporary Installation
March 24, 2017 – September 4, 2017
While the regular gallery space is being refurbished and updated, America’s Presidents will be temporarily installed in the west gallery on the second floor. The exhibition will move back into the newly refreshed gallery spaces and reopen Sept. 22, 2017.
We are excited to announce that the temporary installation will include “Hindsight is Always 20/20” by contemporary artist Luke DuBois. DuBois has generated “word clouds” with words and phrases from the state of the union addresses of 41 presidents. He then presents them in order of most frequent to least frequent word in the form of an eye chart for each president. The result is a startlingly clear snapshot of the lexicon of each presidency, containing a mix of key words and rhetoric unique to each president and the time period in which they served. The words amplify the story that we tell about the presidents by highlighting how the issues of the day became part of Americans’ political dialogue and vocabulary. The installation will allow us to marry words with images in a way that is both educational and aesthetically appealing.

1. SIPGTP_170325_001.JPG: America's Presidents
2. SIPGTP_170325_003.JPG: Hindsight is Always 20/20 Luke DuBois is a true twenty-first century polymath. Although he earned graduate degrees in music composition, he teaches in several departments at NYU. In Hindsight Is Always 20/20, DuBois has generated "word clouds" by taking words and phrases from State of the Union addresses. The portfolio contains a single eye chart for each president from George Washington to George W. Bush (except William Henry Harrison and James Garfield, who did not give State of the Union addresses). Instead of the typical eye chart characters, however, DuBois uses words drawn from the presidents' speeches, in order of the most to least frequently used word. The result is a startlingly clear snapshot of the lexicon of each presidency, containing a mix of historically topical keywords and rhetoric unique to the presidents and their names.

4. SIPGTP_170325_008.JPG: 1911 William Howard Taft
5. SIPGTP_170325_011.JPG: William McKinley, 1843-1901 Twenty-fifth president 1897–1901 Like other presidents elected during the post–Civil War era, William McKinley served in the Union army, where he rose from private to major. He then progressed from U.S. representative to governor of Ohio, and finally, to president. In the 1896 election, he defeated the populist Democrat William Jennings Bryan in a landslide victory, thereby cementing the Republican Party's conservative pro-business platform. The Spanish-American War, which lasted from April to August of 1898, was conducted under the pretext of freeing Cuba. The war guided much of McKinley's foreign policy and resulted in the United States acquiring the territories of Guam, the Philippines, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico -- marking the young nation as a budding global power. After his reelection in 1900, McKinley was assassinated by an anarchist at the 1901 Pan-American Exposition in Buffalo, New York, underscoring the unending social and political unrest of the 1890s. McKinley is remembered for his patience and kindness, and for the dedication he showed his wife, Ida, who struggled with epilepsy and the deaths of their infant daughters. August Benziger, 1897
6. SIPGTP_170325_016.JPG: Theodore Roosevelt, 1858-1919 Twenty-sixth president, 1901–1909 An outsize personality who preached the benefits of the "strenuous life" while also being among themost learned of presidents, Theodore Roosevelt gained national prominence as a civil service reformer, a hero of the Spanish-American War, and a proactive governor of New York. After William McKinley was assassinated in 1901, Roosevelt took office and initiated one of American history's most reform-oriented presidencies. His contributions would include implementing efforts to conserve the nation's disappearing natural heritage, instituting some of the first significant curbs on the excesses of big business, and building the Panama Canal. Despite having progressive views on labor and consumer issues, Roosevelt maintained conservative views on a number of social issues. For example, he felt convinced that a declining birthrate among old-stock Americans threatened the nation as a whole and therefore opposed immigration, birth control, and the redefinition of women's roles. Roosevelt was a fascinating bundle of contradictions, above all as a patrician who realized that unless essential reforms were initiated by government, American democracy was likely to fail. Adrian Lamb, after Philip de Laszlo, 1967, after the 1908 original
7. SIPGTP_170325_023.JPG: William Howard Taft, 1857-1930 Twenty-seventh president, 1909–1913 William Howard Taft felt determined to follow in the footsteps of Theodore Roosevelt, particularly with regard to implementing domestic reform, but Taft -- an indecisive leader -- was largely unsuccessful in meeting this goal. When he presented his tariff reform package, Congress put forth more than eight hundred amendments that made it almost impossible to pass, and he did nothing to object. He did, however, achieve one significant reform legislation, the Mann-Elkins Act of 1910, which regulated destructive competition and unfair trade practices. Also, ninety-nine trust prosecutions were conducted while he was in office. Nevertheless, when Taft was halfway through his presidency, he had become heavily influenced by conservative businessmen who criticized the effects of trust-busting on the national economy. In the end, he reversed his position on tariff reform and therefore alienated progressives who viewed high tariffs as the worst offending characteristic of trusts. William Valentine Schevill, c 1910
8. SIPGTP_170325_029.JPG: Woodrow Wilson, 1856-1924 Twenty-eighth president, 1913–1921 Elected president after earning a sterling reputation as the governor of New Jersey, Woodrow Wilson remained committed to curbing abusive business practices and improving conditions for workers. In the wake of World War I, he tried to create a world order that would choose to prioritize peace over national self-interest, but his idealism was dismissed, both at home and abroad. The frustration Wilson felt from this rejection was compounded by his failure to convince his own country to support the League of Nations, an international organization he had conceived of as a means for avoiding future wars. He suffered a stroke in 1919 while campaigning for American entry into the League and left office in 1921, broken in both health and spirit. Wilson is most often remembered as a champion of liberal values, but recent scrutiny has drawn attention to his regressive actions with regard to women's voting rights and other civil liberties. In June 1919, John Christen Johansen, a Danish born artist living in Chicago, made portraits of the dignitaries during the negotiations of the Treaty of Versailles. This sketch, which he made for a larger group portrait, depicts Wilson just months before his stroke. John Christen Johansen, c 1919
9. SIPGTP_170325_032.JPG: Warren G. Harding, 1865-1923 Twenty-ninth president, 1921–1923 On November 2, 1920, less than three months after the nineteenth amendment had been signed into law, men -- and women -- elected Warren Harding to serve as their president. The former governor and senator from Ohio, who entered the White House following an era of upheaval, promised to restore "normalcy" after a period marked by sweeping social reforms and World War I. Under Harding's leadership, the U.S. dampened a naval arms race with Japan and Great Britain, but in doing so, it agreed to provisions that in effect ceded naval control of the western Pacific to the Japanese, and that set the stage for future conflicts. Harding, who was an inept judge of character, is often criticized for having trusted corrupt cronies with positions of power. Scandals plagued his administration, but because he died in office just as the accounts of wrongdoing were surfacing, they remain opaque. Margaret Lindsay Williams, 1923
10. SIPGTP_170325_038.JPG: Calvin Coolidge, 1872-1933 Thirtieth president, 1923–1929 At a time that saw the growth of big government and an increasingly powerful presidency, Calvin Coolidge stands out as the last genuinely "small government" conservative to serve as president. He was famously taciturn, earning the nickname "Silent Cal," and his demeanor informed a governing philosophy that eschewed intervention except in a civil emergency. As governor of Massachusetts, his handling of the Boston police strike of 1919, an emergency that called for executive leadership, made him an attractive candidate for national office, and he became Harding's vice president in 1921. Following Harding's sudden death in 1923, Coolidge ascended the presidency, and his manner and personal rectitude helped restore the people's trust in the government after the scandal-ridden Harding administration. Joseph E. Burgess, after Ercole Cartotto, 1956

22. SIPGTP_170325_081.JPG: John F. Kennedy, 1917-1963 Thirty-fifth president, 1961–1963 When John F. Kennedy was assassinated in 1963, the country experienced a collective sense of grief that it had not known since the death of Abraham Lincoln. Many Americans found it hard to cope with the sudden loss of this youthful, energetic president whose speeches had inspired citizens to achieve high ideals. In his shortened tenure as president, Kennedy proposed landmark civil-rights legislation, created the Peace Corps, and promoted the goal of landing on the moon. In foreign policy, his administration peacefully resolved a dramatic stand-off with the Soviet Union over the presence of missiles in Cuba, and he oversaw the buildup of the American presence in Vietnam. Elaine de Kooning, known for her gestural portraits, held several informal sessions with him in Palm Beach, Florida, in December 1962 and January 1963. The artist was so moved by the president during these sittings that she went on to create dozens of drawings and paintings of him over the next ten months. Elaine de Kooning, 1963

24. SIPGTP_170325_089.JPG: Ronald Reagan, 1911-2004 Fortieth president, 1981–1989 The ascension of Ronald Reagan, a former actor and governor of California, marked the revitalization of the conservative western wing of the Republican party that many thought had died with the defeat of Barry Goldwater in 1964. As president, he challenged many of the liberal programs that had dominated the federal government since the New Deal, and throughout his presidency, he strove to cut the size of government. Reagan unapologetically reduced social welfare programs and encouraged a conservative social ethic regarding the role of religion in public life and reproductive rights, but his conservative stance led him to largely ignore the AIDS crisis. Finally, in foreign policy, Reagan guided the United States through the end of the Cold War. When he left office in 1989, the Soviet Union was already falling apart, but it did not officially break up until two years later. Everett Raymond Kinstler, 1991
25. SIPGTP_170325_103.JPG: Barack Obama, born 1961 Forty-fourth president, 2009–2017 In 2008, Barack Obama made history as the first African American to be elected president, capping a meteoric rise in politics and concluding a campaign that encouraged progress and optimism. For many, his election signaled increasing racial unity as well as an unprecedented feeling of hope for the future. When Obama entered office, the U.S. was undergoing its worst financial crisis since the Great Depression. Despite the sagging economy, however, he expeditiously enacted the Affordable Care Act, which extended health benefits to millions of previously uninsured Americans. Obama oversaw the drawdown of American troops in the Middle East -- a force reduction that was controversially replaced with an expansion of drone and aviation strikes. The mission to kill al-Qaeda founder Osama bin Laden was successful, but Obama's pledge to close the Guantanamo prison went unrealized. When he left office, the feelings of solidarity, which had been fostered in his campaign, languished, and political divides grew deep. Artist Chuck Close took two large-format photographs of President Obama in 2013, one smiling, one serious, and used them to create double portraits in a variety of mediums, including these Woodburytypes, which were made through a photomechanical printing process that creates a slight relief of the image. At the end of each presidency, the National Portrait Gallery partners with the White House to commission one official portrait of the president and one of their spouse. These photographs by Close will remain on view in America's Presidents until Obama's official painted portrait is completed in early 2018. Chuck Close, 2012
26. SIPGTP_170325_114.JPG: Portraits of the U.S. presidents are both celebratory and interrogatory; they commemorate a term in office and serve as a political signpost by which we judge both the man (and so far they have all been men) and the job they did as chief executive. Through the lens of biography and art we can enter into history and make the past comprehensible to the present. The history of the presidency constantly evolves in reaction to changes in American society and culture. In response to ten years of historical change, the National Portrait Gallery is undertaking a major renovation of its "America's Presidents" exhibition to keep the conversation both intellectually and visually up-to-date. In the tradition of adding the portrait of each president after they have left office, we are including for the first time a photographic diptych of Barack Obama by artist Chuck Close. The museum is presently completing the official portrait commissions of the former president and first lady, to be unveiled next year. The refurbished galleries will reopen on September 22, 2017, and include the iconic "Lansdowne" portrait of George Washington by Gilbert Stuart, which is presently undergoing conservation. In the meantime, we hope you enjoy this temporary installation, which includes Hindsight Is Always 20/20 by artist Luke Dubois. Creating a "word cloud" out of forty-one presidential State of the Union addresses and placing the most-often-used words into the familiar format of an eye chart, Dubois provides a quick and fascinating look back into presidential history.
27. SIPGTP_170325_116.JPG: George Washington, 1732-1799 Born Westmoreland County, Virginia In 1784, the French sculptor Jean-Antoine Houdon agreed to execute a full-length marble statue of George Washington for the Virginia State Capitol in Richmond. The following year, he raveled across the Atlantic and spent two weeks at Mount Vernon. While there, he made a life mask of Washington. That mask became the basis for several plaster and terra-cotta busts, including this one. Jean-Antoine Houdon, c 1786
28. SIPGTP_170325_120.JPG: Andrew Jackson, 1767-1845 Born in the Waxhaw Settlement, South Carolina Ferdinand Pettrich grew up in Dresden and worked as an apprentice for his father, a court sculptor. After studying in Rome with the renowned Dutch artist Bertel Thorvaldsen, Pettrich moved to the United States. The artist reportedly met Jackson in the spring of 1836. That year, he created an original marble portrait of the future president, which served as the model for several replicas. While marble is an intractable medium, Jackson's hair is treated with a great dimensionality that contributes to the drama of this likeness. Ferdinand Pettrich, replica of 1836 replica

30. SIPGTP_170325_128.JPG: The State of the Union address is our only constitutionally-mandated piece of political theater. Every year the President delivers an address in writing or in person to Congress. This has two important purposes, one explicit, the other implicit. The explicit reason for the address is for the president to formally summarize the challenges facing the nation. This is the literal "state" of the nation. The president then outlines policies in response and a legislative agenda is recommended for Congress to consider. One could argue however that the implicit role of the address is far more important. By requiring that the president report "from time to time" to Congress as Article II Section 3 of the Constitution requires, the framers of the Constitution instituted a formal practice designed to demonstrate that the President must make himself regularly accountable to the democratically elected legislature. As such the address reminds us that in our republic, Congress is sovereign. We the people, not I the president.

2017 photos: Overnight trips this year: Civil War Trust conferences in Pensacola, FL, Chattanooga, TN (via sites in Alabama, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Tennessee) and Fredericksburg, VA, a family reunion in The Dells, Wisconsin (via sites in Ohio, Indiana, and Wisconsin), New York City, and my 12th consecutive San Diego Comic Con trip (including sites in Arizona). Ego strokes: For some reason, several of my photos have been published in physical books this year which is pretty cool. Ones that I know about: "Tarzan, Jungle King of Popular Culture" (David Lemmo), "The Great Crusade: A Guide to World War I American Expeditionary Forces Battlefields and Sites" (Stephen T. Powers and Kevin Dennehy), "The American Spirit" (David McCullough), "Civil War Battlefields: Walking the Trails of History" (David T. Gilbert), "The Year I Was Peter the Great: 1956 — Khrushchev, Stalin's Ghost, and a Young American in Russia" (Marvin Kalb), and "The Judge: 26 Machiavellian Lessons" (Ron Collins and David Skover). Equipment this year: I continued to use my Fuji XS-1 cameras but, depending on the event, I also used a Nikon D7000. Number of photos taken this year: just below 560,000.
