The work of German sculptor Isa Genzken is brilliantly receptive to the ever-shifting conditions of modern life.

On the other hand, many artists lack any meaningful experience with the contemporary church and are mostly ignorant of...

In subsequent decades, Johns's art has increasingly engaged issues of memory... The essential five-volume resource on the painting and sculpture of one of the world's foremost contemporary artists

"Take the compassionate eye of photographer Walker Evans, add the contemporary tragedy of Hurricane Katrina and a dash of poetry, and you have Terrence Sanders. Sanders's subjects confront the camera willingly and without coercion, with a variety of attitudes--some are vulnerable, others manage a shy or sheepish smile, a couple of them look high on something; all are united by their education in the School of Hard Knocks. "There but for the grace of God go I," might be the first thought to occur to viewers, followed by the question: What happened to these people that made them slip through...

ISBN: 9781138253773 / Angielski / Miękka / 334 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Examining the complex intersections between art and scientific approaches to the natural world, Biocentrism and Modernism reveals another side to the development of Modernism. While many historians have framed this movement as being mechanistic and "against" nature, the essays in this collection illuminate the role that nature-centric ideologies played in late-nineteenth to mid-twentieth-century Modernism. The essays in Biocentrism and Modernism contend that it is no accident that Modernism arose at the same time as the field of modern biology. From nineteenth-century discoveries, to...
