In this homage to four boyish men and one boy--J. M. Barrie, Roland Barthes, Marcel Proust, D. W.

Journey Without End: The Life and Art of Lawrence Calcagno
ISBN: 9780826327130 / Angielski / Miękka / 189 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Lawrence Calcagno (1913-93) was a painter of the San Francisco school of Abstract Expressionism, and, as described by Gerald Nordland, a proud, self-reliant, and independent figure in post-war American art. He taught at a number of schools and universities, received many invitations for residencies and guest professorships, and had two major retrospective exhibitions in his lifetime, yet his work fell out of favour for a time. The acclaim he hoped for, and deserved, is materialising for the most part posthumously. Nordland says that his best work adds importantly to the achievements of his...

The Fake: Forgery and Its Place in Art
ISBN: 9780847692064 / Angielski / Miękka / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In this fascinating look at the creators of artistic fakes and copies, Sandor Radnoti explores the role of the faker in the art world, and tackles the question of whether fakes can be considered to be art in their own right. The Fake provides a thorough examination of the "parasites" of the art world, as Radnoti investigates the faker's motives and aesthetic sense, as well as the way in which the faker's own story acts as a critical appraisal of the center of the art world. If art is seen from both the center and the periphery of the art world, suggests the author, the viewer's questions...

ISBN: 9780874807998 / Angielski / Miękka / 150 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Fiercely independent and idiosyncratic comparable to Georgia O Keefe - Utah artist Ella Peacock eschewed the limelight and painted in relative obscurity in and around her modest adobe home in Spring City.

Kathryn Abajian was immediately drawn to the eighty-six-year-old Peacock upon their first meeting, and in 1991 she began to visit and interview the reclusive...
