Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kurt Donald Cobain was an American musician, artist, songwriter, guitarist and poet. Born in Aberdeen, Washington, Cobain formed the band Nirvana with Krist Novoselic in 1987 and established it as part of the Seattle music scene and grunge genre. Nirvana's debut album Bleach was released on the independent record label Sub Pop in 1989. After signing with major label DGC Records, the band found breakthrough success with "Smells Like Teen Spirit" from their second album Nevermind (1991). Following the success of Nevermind, Nirvana was labeled "the flagship band" of Generation X, and Cobain hailed as "the spokesman of a generation." Cobain, however, was often uncomfortable and frustrated with that label, believing his message and artistic vision to have been misinterpreted by the public, with his personal issues often subject to media attention.

Book excerpt: Artist and poet David Sapp believes that "any attempt to draw or write about nirvana is a silly pursuit." Yet as seen by professor emeritus Allen Zimmerman of the Cleveland Institute of Art, Sapp is "an open, honest, philosophically informed and poetically gifted, thoroughly engaged and engaging artist who continually conveys the impression that he is a celebrant of life, bent on making sense of what he encounters in his own life." This collection of forty drawings and poems-probing, fearless, and discerning as they are-may not be all that silly, offering inspiration to anyone seeking to "make sense" of life through the lenses of art, poetry, and love.

Book excerpt: The definitive biography of the revolutionary band Nirvana and its star-crossed frontman Kurt Cobain, hailed by Rolling Stone as “the first [book] to comprehensively tell the band’s tale from Aberdeen, Wash., to world domination” “Amazingly raw and candid . . . an unsparing and extremely honest depiction of the group’s highly tumultuous history . . . Come As You Are is as good as rock bios get.”—Billboard “Just tell the truth. That’ll be better than anything else that’s been written about me.”—Kurt Cobain Nirvana came out of nowhere in 1991 to sell nearly five million copies of their landmark album Nevermind, whose thunderous sound and indelible melodies embodied all the confusion, frustration, and passion of the emerging Generation X. Come As You Are is the close-up, intimate story of Nirvana—the only book with exclusive in-depth interviews with bandmembers Kurt Cobain, Krist Noveselic, and Dave Grohl, as well as friends, relatives, former bandmembers, and associates—now updated to include a final chapter detailing the last year of Kurt Cobain's life, before his tragic suicide in April 1994. Vivid, evocative, and thought-provoking, Come As You Are is an essential document not just for Nirvana fans but for anyone interested in the cultural legacy of the 1990s.

Book excerpt: - Publishing on the 30th Anniversary of the release of Nevermind by Nirvana, 24 September 2021 - 150 color and black & white photos throughout. Many unseen - Commentary, quotes and text throughout, including Kirk Weddle (photographer), Steven Walker (owner, Modern Rocks Gallery USA), Steve Fairclough (journalist and writer of 'The all-time greatest album covers'), and Kurt St. Thomas (radio DJ who first played the band) and more When lists are made and articles are written about rock and roll's greatest album covers - there's a consistent name at the top: Nevermind by Nirvana; Nirvana's breakthrough 1991 record that cemented the band's legacy into legend. The image of the baby floating towards a dollar bill on a fish-hook is instantly recognizable as iconic. Now - for the first time in book form - the photographer behind the lens shares his memories from that day along with his nearly 140 outtakes, includes promo shots of the band. Kirk Weddle, an up-and-coming photographer specializing in "submerged humans," was called by the album's art director Robert Fisher with the brief. Weddle went to work and over the course of a few days produced not only the album's iconic cover, but also a series of images of the band that were not used at the time. They are all reproduced in the book. The stories from Weddle of the days shooting - first a series of babies, then a series of the band - paint a picture of a band at the brink of superstardom. Tired from touring, they arrived 'surprised' to discover that they, too, would have to dive into the pool. "It was a cold, overcast day in Los Angeles. It wasn't the ideal swimming situation" remembers Weddle. Nirvana: Never Mind the Photos will be the first time the photographs will be published as a whole. The book showcases these extraordinary shots, examining just how difficult photographing an underwater baby turned out to be, nevertheless photographing an underwater band. These images of Kurt Cobain, Dave Grohl and Krist Novoselic capture the band as they dive in and submerge themselves into the rock icon stratosphere. With contributions, essays and quotes throughout, including Steven Walker, owner of Modern Rocks Gallery (USA), journalist Steve Fairclough, album art director Robert Fisher, coupled with Weddle's own commentary, makes this one-of-a-kind book an insightful celebration of one of the world's most iconic images.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shortly before Gauguin made his first Tahitian journey in 1891, he spent nearly two years in the remote Breton fishing village of Le Pouldu. Seeking creative isolation in a "primitive" setting, he pursued his art accompanied by several followers. One of them was the Dutch painter Meyer de Haan, who was able to pay the living expenses in Le Pouldu and was also knowledgeable in literary and philosophical matters that fascinated Gauguin. Their association resulted in some of Gauguin's most remarkable works, including the Wadsworth Atheneum's symbolist portrait of de Haan inscribed "Nirvana." This and the rich variety of paintings and sculpture by Gauguin produced in 1889-90 are the focus of this beautiful book. Gauguin and de Haan settled into an inn at Le Pouldu run by an attractive unwed mother named Marie Henry, who began a liaison with de Haan despite the fact that he was a sickly hunchback. The intensity of relations between Gauguin and de Haan is reflected in many of the works, including frescoes, which they installed in the inn. Gauguin's time in Le Pouldu was crucial to the advancement of his art, and the vivid Breton subjects and personality of Meyer de Haan remained in his imagination to reappear even during his later Tahitian period. In this book several distinguished experts draw on previously unavailable sources to examine in depth the history of this period, Gauguin's relationship with de Haan, their interest in religion and exotic cultures, and the meaning of the many innovative symbolist works they produced.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: People all over the world make art and take pleasure in it, and they have done so for millennia. But acknowledging that art is a universal part of human experience leads us to some big questions: Why does it exist? Why do we enjoy it? And how do the world’s different art traditions relate to art and to each other? Art Without Borders is an extraordinary exploration of those questions, a profound and personal meditation on the human hunger for art and a dazzling synthesis of the whole range of inquiry into its significance. Esteemed thinker Ben-Ami Scharfstein’s encyclopedic erudition is here brought to bear on the full breadth of the world of art. He draws on neuroscience and psychology to understand the way we both perceive and conceive of art, including its resistance to verbal exposition. Through examples of work by Indian, Chinese, European, African, and Australianartists, Art Without Borders probes the distinction between accepting a tradition and defying it through innovation, which leads to a consideration of the notion of artistic genius. Continuing in this comparative vein, Scharfstein examines the mutual influence of European and non-European artists. Then, through a comprehensive evaluation of the world’s major art cultures, he shows how all of these individual traditions are gradually, but haltingly, conjoining into a single current of universal art. Finally, he concludes by looking at the ways empathy and intuition can allow members of one culture to appreciate the art of another. Lucid, learned, and incomparably rich in thought and detail, Art Without Borders is a monumental accomplishment, on par with the artistic achievements Scharfstein writes about so lovingly in its pages.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: *** 39 Spiritual Mandala Coloring Designs Mandala is a Sanskrit word for circle. It has a spiritual significance, and is a famous symbol for Buddhists and Hindus, which represent Universe. The primary Mandala design depicts a square with four gates. All the gates look like the alphabet T. The design also has a circle in the middle. Mandalas are known to portray radial balance. The Sanskrit term is known to be mentioned in Rig Veda, which is a section of its work. It also takes a major part in philosophy and religion, especially for Buddhists. There are many spiritual traditions which include Mandala for focusing on attention and concentration. Mandala coloring pages are a form of art, which emphasize on this note. The mandala coloring pages are suitable for both old and young. Some of the designs are quite complicated, and they need quite a lot of skill and effort to be colored. Thus, they aren't advisable for children but are for adults instead. If you want to choose Mandala prints for your children, you should look for the ones which are a little less complicated and have simpler shapes. The levels of detail in these shapes are very minute, for which advanced painters and adults would enjoy them more. You could come across areas which are difficult to be colored with crayons, thus you'd need some fine tipped coloring pencils or markers fill up those gaps. Mandala is used in numerous religious traditions. The mandala coloring pages are primarily created to promote concentration in the painter's minds. While they try to fill up the small gaps between the bordered lines, they simultaneously have better focusing skills. These are a major gateway to meditation and trance-induction. Mandalas are surely generic forms of diagrams which are used for charts and geometry. These give you a basic idea of cosmos, both symbolically and metaphysically. Coloring is anyway an important part of life. Other than children who are mostly compelled to color due to educational activities, it is also a great passing time for elders. Sometimes when life seems low, we want to indulge into something which looks bright and colorful. Nothing pleases a sad soul more than various colors. While you indulge into coloring some pages, you also paint your soul with different shades.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Buddha's nirvana marks the end of the life of a great spiritual figure and the beginning of Buddhism as a world religion. Surviving Nirvana is the first book in the English language to examine how this historic moment was represented and received in the visual culture of China, of which the nirvana image has been a part for over 1,500 years. --Mining a selection of well-documented and well-preserved examples from the sixth to twelfth centuries, Sonya Lee offers a reassessment of medieval Chinese Buddhism by focusing on practices of devotion and image-making that were inspired by the Buddha's "complete extinction." The nirvana image, comprised of a reclining Buddha and a mourning audience, was central to defining the local meanings of the nirvana moment in different times and places. The motif's many guises, whether on a stone-carved stele, inside a pagoda crypt, or as a painted mural in a cave temple, were the product of social interactions, religious institutions, and artistic practices prevalent in a given historical context. They were also cogent responses to the fundamental anxiety about the absence of the Buddha and the prospect of one's salvation. By reinventing the nirvana image to address its own needs, each community of patrons, makers, and viewers sought to recast the Buddha's "death" into an allegory of survival that was charged with local pride and contemporary relevance.- -Thoroughly researched, this study engages methods and debates from the fields of art history, religion, archaeology, architecture, and East Asian history that are relevant to scholars and students alike. The many examples analyzed in the book offer well-defined local contexts to discuss broader historical and theoretical issues concerning representation, patronage, religion and politics, family values, and vision.--Sonya S. Lee is assistant professor of art history and East Asian languages and cultures at University of Southern California.-- -

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this study of a series of artist novels, individuality is elucidated by childhood experiences, sensuality and receptivity, the urge for self-expression, relation to nature, and creative work. Individuality is essentially the recognition of one s self as a unique part of a whole, which is apt to be discovered in kinship with nature and expressed in aesthetics that stem from an appreciation of nature. The featured novels are Willa Cather s The Song of the Lark, M. Allen Cunningham s Lost Son, James Joyce s A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, W. Somerset Maugham s The Moon and Sixpence, Dodie Smith s I Capture the Castle, John Updike s Seek My Face, and Virginia Woolf s To the Lighthouse.

This book was released on 2015-10-01 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can one become a successful artist? Where should one start a career in the art world? What are useful strategies to achieve recognition in the art system? Such questions hoard in students' minds ever since entering art school and they probably chase every kind of art professional who is at an early career stage. “The Road to Parnassus” tries to understand what makes a good start in today's art world, who are influential players in the field and which strategies might apply. The swift career ascension of Glasgow artist Douglas Gordon – one of today's leading visual artists – and of the broader YBA generation that rose into worldwide prominence in the 1990s – Damien Hirst and Sarah Lucas among the best known – serves as a convenient case to analyse contemporary artist strategies. This book takes a multidisciplinary approach – spanning from traditional art history, to sociology and economics – pursuing the reconstruction of the field of forces in art as intended by French sociologist Pierre Bourdieu. Compared to previous publications on art system dynamics, such as Thompson's “The $12 Million Stuffed Shark”, this book offers an enhanced understanding of the factors that allow a young artist to enter the arena of contemporary art. The present research should help uncover the art system logic – which appears enigmatic to non-experts – revealing that artists are aware they need to consider global trends, beat competitors and meet the demands of dealers, collectors, curators and museums. This book furthers existing contributions on the YBAs (for example Stallabrass' “High Art Lite”), offering innovative conclusions on recent British art, such as on the duality between London and Glasgow, the gender opposition among emerging artists and the predominance of resourceful authors.
