Book excerpt: Ever since he was an infant, Pigeon Jones has lived on the back of an artistically gifted white elephant named Birch. Birch is a loving father, but that doesn't stop Pigeon from wondering about the human parents who abandoned him. Birch has dreams, too—of being a well-known artist, and of finding the acrobat he fell in love with while they performed together in a circus years ago. And so, on Pigeon's tenth birthday, their search for fame and lost loves begins. Pigeon and Birch paint their way across the world, dodging an evil circus ringleader, freeing zoo animals, and befriending singing hoboes along the way. But when they reach the end of their journey, Birch must master the most difficult art of all: letting go and allowing his beloved Pigeon to stand on his own two feet.

Book Synopsis Farber on Film: The Complete Film Writings of Manny Faber by : Manny Farber
Download or read book Farber on Film: The Complete Film Writings of Manny Faber written by Manny Farber and published by Library of America. This book was released on 2016-02-02 with total page 824 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Manny Farber (1917–2008) was a unique figure among American movie critics. Champion of what he called "termite art" (focused, often eccentric virtuosity as opposed to "white elephant" monumentality), master of a one-of-a-kind prose style whose jazz-like phrasing and incandescent twists and turns made every review an adventure, he has long been revered by his peers. Susan Sontag called him "the liveliest, smartest, most original film critic this country ever produced"; for Peter Bogdanovich, he was "razor-sharp in his perceptions" and "never less than brilliant as a writer." Farber was an early discoverer of many filmmakers later acclaimed as American masters: Val Lewton, Preston Sturges, Samuel Fuller, Raoul Walsh, Anthony Mann. A prodigiously gifted painter himself, he brought to his writing an artist's eye for what was on the screen. Alert to any filmmaker, no matter how marginal or unsung, who was "doing go-for-broke art and not caring what comes of it," he was uncompromising in his contempt for pretension and trendiness, for, as he put it, directors who "pin the viewer to the wall and slug him with wet towels of artiness and significance." The excitement of his criticism, however, has less to do with his particular likes and dislikes than with the quality of attention he paid to each film as it unfolds, to the "chains of rapport and intimate knowledge" in its moment-to-moment reality. To transcribe that knowledge he created a prose that, in Robert Polito's words, allows for "oddities, muddles, crises, contradictions, dead ends, multiple alternatives, and divergent vistas." The result is critical essays that are themselves works of art. Farber on Film brings together this extraordinary body of work in its entirety for the first time, from his early and previously uncollected weekly reviews for The New Republic and The Nation to his brilliant later essays (some written in collaboration with his wife Patricia Patterson) on Godard, Fassbinder, Herzog, Scorsese, Altman, and others. Featuring an introduction by editor Robert Polito that examines in detail the stages of Farber's career and his enduring significance as writer and thinker, Farber on Film is a landmark volume that will be a classic in American criticism. From the Trade Paperback edition.
Book Synopsis Painting with an Elephant by : Carol Jacobsen
Download or read book Painting with an Elephant written by Carol Jacobsen and published by . This book was released on 2022-10 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Did you know some elephants like to draw in the dirt with a stick? Elephants that like to draw can easily learn to paint. Look inside to see how an elephant makes a painting with the help of a person. Before they paint, elephants like to relax with a bath because sometimes they cover themselves in dirt. Learn why there is so much dirt and how to make them happy by scrubbing it off. This book is a treat for all who love elephants. "My three grandchildren, ages 4, 5, and 8 all loved this book. The photos of the elephant bathing were a particular favorite. The 8 year old read it himself after listening to me read it to the little ones. He was very interested in the phonetic spelling of Thongpetch. He'd never seen that in a book before. I asked him to rate the book. 'Awesome!' was his response." Ellen T.
Book Synopsis 8 Ways to Draw an Elephant by : Paola Ferrarotti
Download or read book 8 Ways to Draw an Elephant written by Paola Ferrarotti and published by Tara Books. This book was released on 2015-10 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "8 Ways to Draw an Elephant is primarily an activity book -- it features the elephant rendered in 8 different Indian art styles. Some styles are bold and graphic, others rely on delicate and intricate lines. Some use patterns, others work with decorative motifs. However, each of these styles captures what is characteristic of this magnificent beast -- for some, it is the ears, others, the trunk, for yet others its size. While each elephant looks different, it is evident that they are all elephants! The book is thus an early introduction to a very important idea in the arts -- the idea of representation. Through a series of activities -- colouring, patterning, tracing, decorating and creating their own elephant -- children come to understand the role of the imagination in representing the real. They realise that art is as much about their version of what they see and how they represent that, as it is about what they actually see. For the art educator, each of the 8 styles offers a unique context to think about the relationship between a particular art activity and the learning it fosters and enables."--Publisher's description.
