SUMMARY:The Man Beneath the Paint: California Impressionist Tilden Daken
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by The Book Club of California \nThe untold\, multifaceted story of one of the most adventurous and prolific landscape painters of the American West. California Impressionist Tilden Daken (1876–1935)\, famous in his day\, painted in every California state park and national park in the West—from the redwood forests to the High Sierra—and beneath the Pacific Ocean in a custom-built diving bell. In The Man Beneath the Paint\, Bonnie Portnoy\, Daken’s granddaughter\, has deftly defined his indomitable spirit\, audacious exploits\, insatiable curiosity\, and endlessly colorful life during the era of California Impressionism—from the early 1900s to the onset of the Great Depression. A close friend of writer Jack London\, Daken lost his home and studio in San Francisco’s 1906 earthquake\, got caught up in the Mexican Revolution\, and participated in the 1915 Panama-Pacific International Exposition. A portrait of perpetual motion\, he ventured on art expeditions to Mexico\, Baja\, Hawaii\, and the South Seas; spoke out against the oncoming forces of modern art; socialized with many famous personalities of his era; and demonstrated his sensory synesthesia to the Hollywood crowd\, painting to music in the “key of red.” Notwithstanding his wanderings\, frequent relocations\, and persistent self-promotion\, he painted constantly and with passion. His legacy lives on\, thanks to the thousands of canvases he painted of California’s stunning scenery more than a century ago. \n An in-person and virtual presentation by Bonnie Portnoy\, author \nTo register for the online event\, follow this link: https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_ulQ1JwWQQVi_-uknYvdbTg#/registration
