Dr. NILS PAUL LARSEN______
Nils Paul Larsen (1890—1964) was a significant transitional figure in Hawai'i as it changed from a plantation society to a modern Pacific community. Larsen lived in Hawai'i from 1922 until his death in 1964, and was recognized in varying degrees as a physician, director, researcher, writer, historian, politician, artist, playwright, inventor, association president, decorated war hero, Swedish consul, honorary kahuna, and congressional delegate. Larsen's biographical information, contributions to the field of medicine, and his appreciation for both progressive and traditional medical practice in Hawai'i. His work included milk regulation, better nutrition, improved care for tuberculosis patients, studies on aging, population control, industrial medicine, decrease of infant mortality, healthier lifestyle for plantation workers, and improved housing for nurses. He also sought to preserve Hawaiian herbal remedies and medical knowledge.
HISTORY of HONOLULU PRINTMAKERS______
The Honolulu Printmakers was established in 1928 by Charles W. Bartlett, John Melville Kelly, Huc-Mazelet Luquiens and Alexander Samuel MacLeod. It has developed the tradition of the “gift print”, a print commissioned for sale as a fundraiser at the organization’s exhibitions. The 75th anniversary of the organization was celebrated with a retrospective exhibition at the Honolulu Museum of Art and an accompanying catalogue, A Tradition of Gift Prints. Honolulu Printmakers is a non-profit organization of Hawaii-based printmaking artists that operates a printing studio open to the community. It conducts public exhibitions, lectures, demonstration, workshops, and an outreach program in local intermediate and high schools. The organization holds an annual juried print exhibition.
