Bright, bold, and bursting with color-drenched patterns, the paintings of the postmodernist American artist Jeanne Leighton-Lundberg Clarke (1925-2014) shimmer like the stained-glass windows of an abstract cathedral. For decades, her "Favorite Ladies" paintings have delighted viewers with their almost whimsical appropriation of famous women from the history of art, borrowing from the canvases of such artists as douard Manet, Pablo Picasso, and Andy Warhol. Stylistically paralleling the post-modernist movement of Pattern & Decoration, Clarke explored gender, familial relationships, and religious symbolism from sometimes unexpected and even contradictory perspectives; she explored femininity and female roles while resisting the label of feminist. Clarke, however, embraced the stylistic descriptor of maximalism. For decades, critics and historians have employed the term maximalism both to describe artworks and designs that embrace decorative overload and visual excess as well as to define trends that counter the reductive qualities of the minimalist aesthetic. When Clarke identified herself as a maximalist in 1980, she was the first known artist in contemporary history to use the term to denote a formal stylistic approach, rather than simply an adjective. Following in her pioneering footsteps, this book is the first to explore the contributions of Clarke as well as her role in the development of Maximalism. The authors take the reader on a visual journey, exploring the modernist roots of Clarke and her gendered approach to contemporary genre painting and culminating in a survey of the early twenty-first century fascination with Maximalism.

Автор: Montgomery Dede Название: My Music Man ISBN: 1945805412 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781945805417 Издательство: Неизвестно Цена: 12830.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: As Dede Montgomery moves through grief to accept of the death of her father, the stories in My Music Man shed light on change, acceptance, and forgiveness amid close personal relationships and Oregon's natural landscapes. The reader is catapulted into autumn on the Willamette's riverbank in the 1960s with the author and her brothers, where they discover their father's own childhood stories and the intimate relationship he shares with the land. Tales about generations of family weave between time periods, held together by the constancy of place and colored by memories of picking berries and filberts, traveling through the West Linn locks, and swimming in the river on a hot summer day. Montgomery describes small-town life in a school where everyone knows everybody, and how it felt to be an only girl in what often felt like a never-ending sea of boys.

Battling fire is exhilarating, yet exhausting; the discrimination real and sometimes in her face.

Описание: When fifty-something Naina Mehtas husband unexpectedly dies of a heart attack, this imaginative suburban wife turns into a bold woman thirsty for new experiences, a far cry from the classic image of the aging Indian widow dressed in subdued colors and focused solely on her children and God. Naina also grew up in a society where historically widows have been expected to abandon all pleasure, particularly remarriage, and, in extreme cases, have even had to give up eating sweets, making Nainas foray into such territory groundbreaking. As Naina becomes more empowered, she nervously dips her toes into the world of dating for the first time in her life. She might find that the possibility of love still exists for a woman of her age, but what happens if the man in question is Muslim and stirs generational wounds and the wrath of her conservative son?

Автор: Davies Kathleen Название: Sacred Groves: Or, How a Cemetery Saved My Soul ISBN: 1945805986 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781945805981 Издательство: Неизвестно Цена: 15590.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание:
In the not-so-sacred Groves of Academe, where female colleagues can be less than supportive and male colleagues downright intimidating and even devious, Kathleen Davies felt intense pressure to prove herself as an English professor. But in the beautiful local cemetery, she found a truly sacred landscape that offered not only relief but inspiration. Once she was denied the professional success she had dreamed of, her interest in cemeteries became an obsession, and her photoshoots with her dog all over Ohio evolved into a spiritual quest that led to a surprising self-discovery.
By turns meditative and lyrical, at times even hilarious, Sacred Groves traces a spiritual journey from anxiety and failure to self-acceptance. It is a book for anyone who has ever failed to prove themselves, only to discover something far more important than worldly achievement could ever give. It is a story of resilience, healing, and salvation and a celebration of the power of landscape to lift our spirits higher.
