Haunted: Marvin Cone’s Ghosts
<p>In the academic year of 1938-1939, Marvin Cone took a leave of absence from teaching at Coe College and secured a studio in the Granby Building in downtown Cedar Rapids. Funded by local businessmen, Cone received an uninterrupted “year of freedom,” as he termed it, to devote to his painting. In this newfound freedom, Cone departed from his beloved depiction of barns and the Iowa landscape and turned inward, literally. He began to focus on eerie, atmospheric building interiors, painted almost in monotone. Some of these interiors began to include images of ghosts, their bodies transparent but distinct against the background. Although common enough in children’s book illustration, Cone’s ghosts are highly unusual in “fine” art. Of these paintings, Cone said that he wanted to establish, “a lonesome and apprehensive atmosphere.” In addition to ghosts, Cone also experimented with adding gloomy portraits of “Uncle Ben” to the austere walls of his interior, or simply ominous titles that alluded to the room having just been vacated by an unknown presence.</p><p><br></p><p>After initially broaching the subject in the late 1930s, Cone returned to it several times, which was unusual for him. These interior spaces and their otherworldly inhabitants called him back through the 1950s and into the mid-1960s, near the end of his life. <em>Haunted: Marvin Cone’s Ghosts</em> is a celebration of this intriguing theme and its unusual and enigmatic presence in Cone’s artwork.</p> 2019-10-24 20:00:00 -0500

Linn County Blindness Support Group
<p align="center"><a name="OLE_LINK8">LINN COUNTY BLINDNESS SUPPORT GROUP MEETING, 24 October 2019</a></p><p><br></p><p>If you are blind or experiencing loss of vision, life can be pretty scary if you don’t have any tools or connections to deal with the situation. Participating in a support group can help you find that you are not alone, and together we can share tips and tricks we have found to overcome difficulties posed by loss of vision. Though not a part of the Iowa Department for the Blind (IDB), support groups also act as a liaison with that state agency that provides training, equipment, and counseling to those with vision loss.</p><p><br></p><p>The Linn County blindness support group will have its next regularly scheduled meeting on Thursday, 24 October 2019 from 1:00 p.m. to approximately 2:30 p.m. in Sedlacek Hall at Cottage Grove Place, 2115 1<sup>st</sup> Av SE, in Cedar Rapids.</p><p><br></p><p>We will have a brief presentation by Lori Sporrer of Hamilton Relay, which provides aid in communications (primarily phone and teleconferencing) for people with hearing loss. If you’re having troubles with hearing this could be of great value. In our remaining time we plan to continue our discussion of problem areas related to blindness and ways we’ve found to deal with them (or not).</p><p><br></p><p>For those of you who are iPhone users, after 2:30 our own Matthew Taylor will continue the training begun two months ago. If you stay around for this, it may continue till around 3:30</p><p><br></p><p><a name="OLE_LINK6">If you have questions, or want more information about the group, feel free to call Jonathan Ice at 319-298-2919, or e-mail at </a><a href="mailto:jkice89@q.com">jkice89@q.com</a>.</p> 2019-09-30 15:30:00 -050010/24/191:00 p.m.Cottage Grove PlaceCedar Rapids -
