  Pierian Press :: Arthur Secunda: Paintings and Engraved Wood Panels
In the 1960s the daring social statements of his bold collages were a sensation; in the 1970s he created haunting abstract landscapes with strips of torn paper which, with the popular and much-imitated prints they generated, were to become one of the established graphic conventions of the decade.
Secunda's recent paintings, in every permutation of oil, acrylic, enamel, and mixed media on canvas, wood, and paper, are a new departure; and yet it may be said of him as of any authentic artist that a thread of continuity binds his latest work with what has come before.
Paintings and prints by Secunda are in the permanent collections of the New York Public Library, the Library of Congress, the Smithsonian Institution, the Bibliotheque National of Paris, the National Gallery in Washington, New York's Museum of Modern Art, Chase Manhattan Bank, the Bank of America, Sears, and Standard Oil.

The church at Llanthony Secunda was begun in May 1136 and was consecrated in September 1137.(12) When peace returned to the borders, successive priors remained in Gloucester.
By this time Llanthony Secunda was the richest Augustinian house in England,(16) and entertained the court of Henry VII in 1500 and 1501.
Further work may provide more information regarding the layout of Llanthony Secunda Priory, but it is the extensive truncation of a range of medieval buildings by this vast intrusion that unforturiately provides the firmest evidence yet that the priory church and cloisters lay to the north of their long-assumed location.

 ARS | Publication request: Interspecific Hybrids of Poa Arachnifera X Poa Secunda
In order to determine the value of Texas bluegrass in such interspecific hybridizations, crosses were made between a locally collected P. arachnifera and a P. secunda cultivar.
The floral structure of the hybrid infloresence was monoecious and more closely resembled the P. secunda parent.
The generation of fertile interspecific hybrids of P. arachnifera x P. pratensis appears to be a promising new source of Poa germplasm for the future development and introduction of a native, cool-season perennial forage having adaption to both the Southern and Central plains regions of the United States.

There is a popular myth that when the Andrews Sisters released their hugely successful recording of Sholom Secunda's "Bay Mir Bistu Sheyn" in 1938, the composer's mother was so distraught, she fasted for a week to expiate her sins.
While the extreme reaction of Secunda's mother, perpetrated by a sensational article in the Brooklyn Daily Eagle, is most likely an exaggeration, the amazingly low amount of the sale is true.
Remarkably, Secunda was not bitter about losing out on more than $350,000 in royalties throughout the years.
