Draft:Safavid-Aq Qoyunlu wars | The | The Safavid–Aq Qoyunlu wars were a series of conflicts that occurred between the late 15th and early 16th centuries between the Safavid dynasty and the Aq Qoyunlu
The campaigns against Aq Qoyunlu will begin after the death of Uzun Hasan in 1478
At the end of the 15th century, the Aq Qoyunlu State (1378–1508), a Sunni Turkmen confederation, was facing a deep internal crisis following the death of its most prominent leader, Uzun Hasan, in 1478. Succession struggles and the fragmentation of power significantly weakened the state. At the same time, the figure of Ismail I, leader of the Safaviyya Shia Suffi order, emerged. With the support of the Qizilbash tribes, he launched a military campaign to establish a new order in Iran. |

thumb|right|Peter T. M. Barott, c. 1960s
Peter Temple Murray Barott (1919 – December 16, 1964) was a Canadian architect, decorated war veteran, and civic leader based in Montreal, Quebec. He was a founding partner of the modernist architectural firm David, Barott, Boulva, and an early contributor to major projects for Expo 67, including the Habitat 67 housing complex and the Cinerama pavilion. Known for bridging anglophone and francophone cultures in Canadian architecture, Barott was active in numerous professional associations and held several national leadership roles before his untimely death at the age of 45. |
Draft:Peter Barott | Early Life and Education | Early Life and Education
Barott was born in Montreal in June 1919 into a family of architects. His father, Ernest Isbell Barott, was a notable architect responsible for numerous public buildings in Montreal. He was educated at Ashbury College, Selwyn House School, and Bishop’s College School. At Selwyn House, he earned the Molson Scholarship and later graduated from Bishop's with the Lieutenant Governor's Medal for academic excellence.
He went on to study arts at McGill University, earning a Bachelor of Arts degree in 1940. After the war, Barott pursued architectural training at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, where he earned a Bachelor of Architecture in 1952. |
Draft:Peter Barott | Military service | Military service
In 1939, at the breakout of war, Peter Barott joined the Canadian Officers' Training Corps while enrolled at McGill University. After graduating in 1940 with a Bachelor of Arts degree, he transferred from the COTC to the Black Watch (Royal Highland Regiment) of Canada, serving as a lieutenant in the 1st Battalion. thumb|right|Peter T. M. Barott in uniform, c. 1942
He was deployed overseas with the Canadian forces and took part in the Dieppe Raid on August 19, 1942—a major assault on the German-occupied French port of Dieppe. During the raid, Barott was captured by German forces and became a prisoner of war.
His multiple escape attempts from successive POW camps eventually led to his transfer to Oflag IV-C, better known as Colditz Castle, a high-security facility reserved for Allied officers who had repeatedly tried to escape captivity. Barott remained imprisoned there until the prison was liberated by Allied forces in April 1945.
His experiences during imprisonment were later referenced in published memoirs by fellow POWs, such as The Colditz Story, which mentioned Barott's ingenuity and determination.
Following the war, he was awarded the Canadian Bronze Cross in recognition of his service and bravery. He returned to Canada in June 1945 and retired from active military duty with the rank of Captain. |
Draft:Peter Barott | Architectural career | Architectural career
Following his return to Canada, Barott began practical work in construction, including a period at the Canadian Bronze Company. He later enrolled at the University of Michigan, graduating in 1952 with a Bachelor of Architecture. That same year, he joined the architectural firm Barott, Marshall, Montgomery and Merrett, which had been co-founded by his father, Ernest Isbell Barott.
After the death of partner Robert Montgomery in 1955, Peter Barott became a named partner, and the firm was renamed Barott, Marshall, Merrett & Barott. During this time, he contributed to a number of institutional and commercial buildings in Montreal.
In 1961, Barott left the family firm to co-found a new partnership with Jacques David and Pierre Boulva. The firm, David, Barott, Boulva, quickly became known for its bilingual design approach and modernist influence. Barott served as senior partner until his death in 1964.
He was an early contributor to Expo 67 projects, most notably as local associate architect for the Telephone Pavilion in collaboration with Gordon Adamson. This pavilion featured a circular Cinerama theater that screened Canada '67, a 360° film produced by Walt Disney. He was also involved in the early development of Habitat 67, a modular housing complex designed by Moshe Safdie, who later described Barott as a collaborator and friend.Moshe Safdie, letter of condolence to Gwendolyn Barott, December 1964. In possession of the Barott family.
Barott's influence on the design and implementation of Expo 67 structures helped shape the architectural identity of the event and, more broadly, the image of postwar modernism in Montreal. |
Draft:Peter Barott | Professional affiliations and civic roles | Professional affiliations and civic roles
Barott was a highly active member of Canada's architectural and civic institutions. He became a member of the Province of Quebec Association of Architects (PQAA) in 1953 and, by the 1960s, served as vice-president of the PQAA Council. He was widely expected to become the association’s president in 1965 prior to his untimely death.
He was elected a Fellow of the RAIC (Royal Architectural Institute of Canada), where he served on the executive committee. Within the RAIC, he chaired the Public Relations and Publications Committee and was instrumental in organizing the Planning to Build publication and a national 1960 conference on architecture in public space.
Barott was also a founding member of the Specification Writers Association of Canada (SWAC). He chaired the Montreal chapter and went on to serve as national president from 1963 to 1964. He worked to improve coordination between architects, engineers, and builders, and advocated for standardization in building materials and specifications.
Beyond architectural associations, Barott chaired the Canadian Joint Committee on Construction Materials — a joint initiative of the PQAA, the Canadian Construction Association (CCA), and the Association of Consulting Engineers of Canada (ACEC).
In civic life, Barott served on the Architectural Commission of Westmount and contributed actively to the Canadian Red Cross. He was also a member of prominent social institutions, including the St. James’s Club, Mount Royal Club, University Club of Montreal, and Mount Bruno Country Club. |
Draft:Peter Barott | Personal life | Personal life
Peter Barott married Gwendolyn Mae “Gwen” Ward of Calgary in July 1945, shortly after his return from World War II. The couple settled in Westmount, Quebec, at 467 Argyle Avenue, where they raised two children, including son Patrick, and daughter Chella. At the time of his death, Patrick was 12 and Chella was 10.
Barott’s family had long-standing ties to Montreal’s anglophone community and architectural heritage. His sister, Chella Barott Thornton, and his father, Ernest Isbell Barott, remained active in Montreal society during his lifetime.
Known for his warmth, humor, and generosity, Barott was remembered by colleagues and friends as a dynamic and engaging presence. He was an avid skier and golfer and participated regularly in sporting and social clubs.
Despite a demanding professional life, he was deeply devoted to his family and was remembered for balancing leadership in public life with commitment at home. |
Draft:Peter Barott | Legacy | Legacy
Peter Temple Murray Barott died suddenly of a heart attack on December 16, 1964, at the age of 45. His unexpected passing was widely mourned by Montreal’s architectural, civic, and cultural communities. Tributes came from across Canada, including heartfelt condolences from Moshe Safdie and representatives of the Black Watch.
In recognition of his contributions, the Specification Writers Association of Canada established the **Peter Barott Award** in 1965 to honor excellence in building product literature and construction documentation. His architectural firm, David, Barott, Boulva, continued to flourish after his death, completing key projects that he had helped initiate — including components of Expo 67 and the Dow Planetarium.
Barott is remembered for his energetic leadership, commitment to bilingual design collaboration, and role in shaping the architectural legacy of postwar Montreal. His work helped bridge traditions across Canada’s English- and French-speaking architectural cultures, and his influence continues to resonate in the built environment of the city. |

Glow (Alien Ant Farm song) | Release and reception | Release and reception
"Glow" was included as the fourth track on truANT, which was released on August 19, 2003. In the United States, DreamWorks Records serviced "Glow" to modern rock radio on September 8, 2003. Critically, Susanne Ault of Billboard magazine called the track a "bright, bouncy song about physical attraction", but commercially, the song did not appear on any Billboard charts, instead peaking at number 40 on the Alternative Top 50 ranking published by Radio & Records.
In Australia, a CD single of "Glow" was released on June 21, 2004. This CD contains the album version of "Glow", live versions of "Bug Bytes" and "Never Meant", and the song's music video. On June 28, the single debuted and peaked at number 98 on Australia's ARIA Singles Chart before falling out of the top 100 immediately afterwards. The song was more successful in New Zealand, debuting at number 49 on the RIANZ Singles Chart on February 8, 2004. For the next seven weeks, the song rose up the chart, eventually peaking at number five on March 28. The song remained within the top 50 for 16 more weeks (until July 19), totaling 24 weeks on the chart altogether. In August 2022, Recorded Music NZ awarded the song a gold certification for sales and streaming figures exceeding 15,000 units.
Music video
A music video was filmed to promote "Glow". It features the band playing the song in a house while many electronic appliances, such as desk lamps, a refrigerator, a vacuum cleaner, and a PlayStation 2 dance along to the song and interact with the band out of their own accord. At the end of the video, an Atari 2600 knocks a cup of liquid onto the PlayStation 2, causing most of the appliances to short out. The video was added to MTV2's playlists on the week ending September 28, 2003, and was added to Fuse's playlists the following week.

El Taller de Gráfica Popular (Spanish: The Workshop for Popular Graphic Arts), commonly known as TGP, is a workshop founded in Mexico City in 1937 by Leopoldo Méndez, Pablo O'Higgins, and Luis Arenal. The print collective was primarily concerned with using art to advance revolutionary causes. The workshop became a base of political activity and abundant artistic output, and attracted many foreign artists as collaborators. |

Mexico pioneered the link between art and societal development.
Left-wing governments in the early 20th century utilized artists to promote political and social causes.
Mexico has the oldest printmaking tradition in Latin America, dating back to the 16th century, mainly for religious purposes. It made its adoption during the Mexican Revolution uprising.
Printmaking became crucial for transmitting messages through art, especially in a country with multiple spoken languages and no unified language across regions.
It offered key advantages like rapid reproduction, wide propagation, and low cost.
The introduction of lithography in the 19th century expanded printmaking, leading to artistic recognition.
Prints became a universal language, influencing early 20th-century artists eager to reach broad audiences during political unrest. |

Jose Guadalupe was a pioneering printmaker who played a significant role in this resistance:
Devoted his life to printmaking, turning it into a powerful medium of social critique.
Worked at Antonio Vanegas Arroyo's printing house, where his art reached the masses.
Known for his humorous and politically charged works, including Calaveras (skull illustrations).
His prints addressed daily political issues, government misappropriation, and the exploitation of Mexican people. Supported revolutionary leaders like Francisco Madero and Emiliano Zapata through his prints.
Created iconic imagery, such as depicting Zapata as a leader rallying villagers.
Diego Rivera, a prominent Mexican artist, admired Posada and highlighted his influence of Mexican art.
Described two types of art in Mexico -- one promoting social justice and the other perpetuating inequality
Praised Posada as a leading figure in art rooted in positive social values, reflecting the struggles of the oppressed. |

[edit]
The Current Version
The Workshop was founded in 1937 following the dissolution of the Liga de Escritores y Artistas Revolucionarios (LEAR, Revolutionary Writers' and Artists' League), a group of artists who had supported the goals of the Mexican Revolution.
Initially called the Taller Editorial de Gráfica Popular, its founders built off a rich tradition of printmaking in Mexico, particularly the legacy of José Guadalupe Posada and Manuel Manilla.
Under President Lázaro Cárdenas, the work of the Taller supported the government's policies, including the Mexican oil expropriation.
In 1940, muralist David Alfaro Siqueiros launched an armed assault on the residence of exiled Russian Revolutionary Leon Trotsky, using the Taller's print shop as a headquarters and including some artists affiliated with the Taller in his squad.
There was some collaboration between the TGP and the artists of the New Deal-era Works Progress Administration, including Rafael Tufiño.
Artists from outside Mexico came to work and study at the Taller, including Mariana Yampolsky, the first female member of the Taller, who arrived in 1945 and remained until 1960, and Elizabeth Catlett, who worked with the Taller from 1946 to 1966. Both took Mexican citizenship. During the Civil Rights Movement, Chicano and African American artists produced work at the Taller. The Taller became inspiration to many politically active leftist artists; for example, American expressionist painter Byron Randall went on to found similar artist collectives after becoming an associate member.
The TGP faced financial instability and had to relocate several times, but Jesús Álvarez Amaya kept it running up to his death in 2010. |

The Current Version
During its heyday, the Taller specialized in linoleum prints and woodcuts. It produced posters, handbills, banners, and portfolio editions. The art supported causes such as anti-militarism, organized labor, and opposition to fascism.
The art was often made through the collaborative process, and the Taller took the anti-commercial policy of not numbering prints, but it sold prints as part of and was the first political publishing workshop in Mexico to do so.
Under the brand La Estampa Mexicana, the TGP sold song lyrics, posters of heroes and Mexican culture and Left movements worldwide, and gave rise to a new generation of calaveras, the Mexican tradition of humorous poetry ridiculing politicians and other popular figures. The raised fist emerged as a graphic symbol of resistance and unity.
It still working on art and social issues and it is located in Dr. Manuel Villada 46, Colonia Doctores, Mexico City. |
