Charles Locke Art

American, 1899-1983
Charles Wheeler Locke Born 1899, Cincinnati Ohio Died 1983, Garrison New York Charles Wheeler Locke – painter, illustrator, print maker, and teacher – was born in Cincinnati, Ohio in 1899. He studied at the Cincinnati Art Academy and later with Joseph Pennell at the Art Students League in New York City. Noticing Locke’s talents, Pennell hired him as his primary assistant before selecting him to succeed him as Instructor of Lithography. Locke held that position between 1922 and 1937. Beginning in 1925, his lithographs of the docks, wharfs, and streets of New York and Brooklyn gained international recognition. He was a member of the Society of American Etchers, National Academy of Design, American Print Makers, and the Century Club.

ABOUT THE ARTIST Howard Norton Cook (1901-1980) was one of the best-known of the second generation of artists who moved to Taos. A native of Massachusetts, he studied at the Art Students League in New York City and at the Woodstock Art Colony. Beginning his association with Taos in 1926, he became a resident of the community in the 1930s. During his career, he received two Guggenheim Fellowships and was elected an Academician in the National Academy of Design. He earned a national reputation as a painter, muralist, and printmaker. Cook’s work in the print mediums received acclaim early in his career with one-person exhibitions at the Denver Art Museum (1927) and the Museum of New Mexico (1928). He received numerous honors and awards over the years, including selection in best-of-the-year exhibitions sponsored by the American Institute of Graphics Arts, the Brooklyn Museum, the Society of American Etchers, and the Philadelphia Print Club. His first Guggenheim Fellowship took him to Taxco, Mexico in 1932 and 1933; his second in the following year enabled him to travel through the American South and Southwest. Cook painted murals for the Public Works of Art Project in 1933 and the Treasury Departments Art Program in 1935. The latter project, completed in Pittsburgh, received a Gold Medal from the Architectural League of New York. One of his most acclaimed commissions was a mural in the San Antonio Post Office in 1937. He and Barbara Latham settled in Talpa, south of Taos, in 1938 and remained there for over three decades. Cook volunteered in World War II as an Artist War Correspondent for the US Navy, where he was deployed in the Pacific. In 1943 he was appointed Leader of a War Art Unit...
