- Charles_James_Martin_(artist) abstract "Charles James Martin (September 1886 – August 9, 1955) was an American modernist artist andarts instructor. He worked in a variety of media including etching, lithography, watercolor, monotype, linocut, woodcut, oil, photography, mezzotint and silversmithing. Bornin Mansfield, England in 1886, Martin emigrated to the USA as a boy and lived out theremainder of his life as an American. He studied art under Arthur Wesley Dow at Dow’sIpswich Summer School of Art as well as at Columbia University Teachers College, wherehe became an instructor himself in 1914.Mr. Martin's work is after the new modernist school, the art that seeksessence rather than form, interpretation rather than faithful representation. Theresults of this first year's training in a type of work so entirely new to TeachersCollege students are highly gratifying to Professor Dow. According to Mr. Martin,modernist painting must be preceded by ordinary symmetrical drawing by the student. Inother words, rules must be learned before they can be departed from. The exhibitshowed, therefore, not only paintings of this new character, but also drawings of theold style,—symmetrical, detailed, precise. One of the color experiments of particularinterest in this interpretative painting is that of “optical mixtures,” a process bywhich the mixing of colors to produce another color, is left to the eye, rather thanmixed on the palette; green foliage, for example, may be represented by interminglingsplotches of blue and yellow. The exhibit showed these modernist studies done in allmediums, —oil, chalk, tempora, water color.Martin attained professorship at Teachers College in 1923 and continued his work thereinto the 1940s. Georgia O'Keeffe attended Martin's class at Teachers college in 1914-15, where she met Anita Pollitzer. O'Keeffe considered Martin’s instruction significantenough that she continued sending examples of her work for his critique in the periodafter she attended his class. Martin evenhad a fan in Winston Churchill, as a friend of his writes in a letter circa 1930s:Wednesday afternoon Mr. and Mrs. Winston Churchill and two sons came infor tea; both Mr. and Mrs. C. are crazy about sketching and water colors. Mr. C. wentback to [Charles’] picture three times and stood for ages admiring and commenting uponit- thought the light and shadows perfect and loved the simplicity of the theme. Ialways feel so proud to say “our friend Prof. Martin!"In the 1910s, Martin also studied photography with Clarence H. White at TeachersCollege, and became an instructor at White’s School of Photography in 1918. Also in1918, Martin won first prize in a photography contest held by Columbia University inwhich Dow and White were judges. During this time period, he also served on the Executive Committee of the Pictorial Photographers of America [1].Martin spent many summers in the 1920s-50s living and teaching plein air art classesin Provincetown, Mass, and also in Mexico. Martin continued working as an artinstructor, often on a freelance basis, for the remainder of his life. He died on August 9, 1955 in Hyannis, MA, after a short illness. He is buried at North Burial Ground, Providence, Rhode Island.".
