Minerva Teichert: Pageants in Paint, examines how the American mural and pageantry movement of the early 20th century influenced Teichert’s artistic production. When she attended the Art Institute of Chicago and Art Students League of New York in the early 1900s, mural paintings and theatrical pageants were dynamic components of American popular culture. Presenting forty-seven of her large-scale narrative murals, it explores how the artist’s personal dramatic flair contributed to the theatrical characteristics of her murals of religious and western subjects. Some of the works in the exhibition come from private collections and have not been seen publicly for many years. Minerva Teichert and her history of accomplishment are well described in this book. It will be a great addition to your personal library. About artist, Minerva Teichert. The works of western American artist, Minerva Teichert, have received increasingly popular and critical acclaim in recent years. Today, the LDS community loves Teichert. She is a woman who successfully combined both faith and family and left an extraordinary legacy of artistic production. Minerva Kohlhepp was born in North Ogden, but grew up homestead farming in the vicinity of American Falls, Idaho. Her father encouraged her childhood sketching. Soon, she developed an indomitable will to succeed and excel in the field of art. She attended the Art Institute of Chicago and Art Students League of New York in the early 1900s. There, mural paintings and theatrical pageants were dynamic components of American popular culture. Teichert embraced these art forms. Following the admonition of her art teacher – the American realist painter Robert Henri – she used the visual language these murals provided to tell the narrative of her religious heritage as well as that of the American West.
