FREE UPGRADE to Courier/Priority Shipping Upon Request - IN STOCK AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT - Flawless copy brand new pristine never opened -- 208 pp. ; 119 illus. 117 in color. -- with a bonus offer--; The Luminous Interval accompanies the Guggenheim Museum's eponymous exhibition of works drawn from the D. Daskalopoulos collection. Daskalopoulos' collecting practices are inspired in part by the writings of the Greek philosopher Nikos Kazantzakis who envisioned life as the "luminous interval" bridging the twin abysses of birth and death. Balancing renderings of chaotic fragmentation with forms defined by geometric containment and restraint the works explore the coexistence of hope and despair within the human condition. Encompassing works in various media by more than 30 artists including Steve McQueen Wangechi Mutu Rivane Neuenschwander and Walid Raad the result is a survey of some of the most salient artistic developments of recent decades. This fully illustrated catalogue features an interview with Daskalopoulos and critical essays by philosopher Simon Critchley with Jamieson Webster and art critic Brian Sholis. . 2011. 0892074124 .

"He displaces inverts reserves and remakes existing things with self-conscious ironic amateurishness. He is a tinkerer with objects of design and bits of history an alchemist of arcana and late modernism" according Michael Kimmelman of The New York Times. This volume presents three projects by Starling: in "Kakteenhaus" 2002 an Andalusian cactus is transplanted to Berlin's winter where a converted automotive engine ensures its survival; "Plant Room" 2008 creates a mud-brick chamber for sensitive historical photographs; and for "Under Lime" 2009 Starling cut a lime branch from the nearby "Unter den Linden" boulevard and grafted it beneath the Kunsthalle's rafters. . 2009. 3865605974 .

Ills. 28 x 24 cm. -- with a bonus offer--; Spanning some 350 years the Thomson Collection of ship models contains examples of exquisite workmanship and some of the masterpieces of the genre. Foremost in the Collection are rare late 17th and 18th century British dockyard models made to scale for the Royal Navy and wealthy individuals. There is also a large number of models made by some of the 120000 prisoners of the Napoleonic Wars. These models - made from wood and bone with rigging of silk and human hair - were often produced by teams of highly skilled craftsmen and sold to local British collectors who gathered at the prison gates. The shipbuilder's models extend from the mid 19th century to the Second World War representing a diversity of both model style as well as ship types ranging from tugs dredgers and trawlers to cargo vessels passenger steamers private yachts corvettes battleships cruisers torpedo boats destroyers and two aircraft carriers. The Collection is an important three-dimensional resource for students of maritime history and the naval architecture of ships accurately recording vessels that no longer exist. The author considers in detail the rich history and artistry of model-making. New photography captures the breathtaking mastery - the carving casting gilding and stitching - that such 'ship building in miniature' demands. . 2009. 190347082X .

Born in 1937 David Hockney grew up in a northern English town during the days of postwar austerity. By the time he was ten years old he knew he wanted to be an artist and after leaving school he went on to study at Bradford Art College and later at the Royal College of Art in London. Bursting onto the scene at the Young Contemporaries exhibition Hockney was quickly heralded as the golden boy of postwar British art and a leading proponent of pop art. It was during the swinging 60s in London that he befriended many of the seminal cultural figures of the generation and throughout these years Hockney's career grew. Always absorbed in his work he drew painted and etched for long hours each day but it was a scholarship that led him to California where he painted his iconic series of swimming pools. Since then the most prestigious galleries across the world have devoted countless shows to his extraordinary work. In the seventies he expanded his range of projects including set and costume design for operas and experiments with photography lithography and even photocopying. Most recently he has been at the forefront the art world's digital revolution producing incredible sketches on his iPhone and iPad and it is this progressive thinking which has highlighted his genius vigor and versatility as an artist approaching his 75th birthday. In this the first volume of Hockney’s biography detailing his life and work from 1937 - 1975 Sykes explores the fascinating world of the beloved and controversial artist whose career has spanned and epitomized the art movements of the last five decades. . 2012. 0385531443 .

Description: "Herbert Draper was one of the most successful painters of classical mythologies and elegant portraits in the period between the turn of the Twentieth Century and the advent of the First World War. His pictures are the archetypes of the Victorian classical revival; dramatic and sensually charged subjects of beautiful maidens and dynamic heroes. Neglected for over half a century Draper's work has finally been reassessed. He is now regarded as one of the last great painters of classical narratives in late Victorian and Edwardian Britain. Herbert Draper: A Life Study is the first study of Draper's art and life largely based on previously unstudied material in private archives. Many of the pictures reproduced in this book for the first time are now in private collections and have not been exhibited since Draper's death." -- with a bonus offer--; Herbert Draper was one of the most successful painters of classical mythologies and elegant portraits in the period between the turn of the Twentieth Century and the advent of the First World War.
