A právě tuto mezeru by autor rád alespoň zčásti zaplnil. Ve svém zkoumání se zaměřuje na zmapování různých obrazů mravenců v jednotlivých údobích evropské...

Blue Arabesque: A Search for the Sublime
ISBN: 9780156033114 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Just out of college, Patricia Hampl was mesmerized by a Matisse painting she saw in the Art Institute of Chicago: an aloof woman gazing at goldfish in a bowl, a mysterious Moroccan screen behind her. This woman seemed a welcome secular version of the nuns of Hampl's girlhood, free and untouchable, a poster girl for twentieth-century feminism. In Blue Arabesque, Hampl explores the allure of that woman, immersed in leisure, so at odds with the increasing rush of the modern era. Her tantalizing meditation takes us to the Cote d'Azur and North Africa, from cloister to harem, pondering...
