- W4379779975 abstract "Countering popular notions of artistic drive and creative expression, this article aims to broaden the scope of the questions we ask of artists and immigrant artists in particular. Herbjørn Gausta (1854–1924) immigrated to the United States with his family in 1867, joining the Norwegian-American community in northeast Iowa and Minnesota. After attending Luther College, Gausta pursued an art career and spent the remainder of his life painting portraits and altarpieces, as well as genre scenes and landscapes—the focus of this study. Popularly remembered as a sensitive spirit, driven to recreate scenes from his youth out of a personal, psychological need, Gausta's paintings are often considered rare spontaneously generated images of creative genius. Neither of these readings hold up when viewed through the facts of his biography. The author argues in this article that when we set aside notions of nostalgia, the possibility that Gausta created his images of Norway to do other important personal and cultural work opens up. Indeed, the author concludes that Gausta's repeated return to Norwegian subjects and landscapes in his work had as much to do with building social cohesion and financial viability as it did with homesickness and nostalgia." @default.
