Book excerpt: Literary Nonfiction. Poetry. Fiction. California Interest. African & African American Studies. Latinx Studies. Middle Eastern Studies. Women's Studies. LGBTQIA Studies. Art. Film. Music. Art Criticism. BLANK SIGN BOOK is a collection of innovative art writing from poet and essayist Anne Lesley Selcer. Writing in the confluence of politics and aesthetics through the work of Ana Mendieta, The Otolith Group, Juliana Huxtable, Dolores Dorantes, Janet Cardiff, Ragnar Kjartansson, and more, Selcer's debut collection culminates the interdisciplinary thinking and formal risk of fifteen years of public critical writing. Selcer's work has been nationally and internationally commissioned and solicited by museums, galleries and art magazines. Anchored by the feminist, queer, and decolonial thought of Susan Sontag, Saidiya Hartman, Lisa Robertson, Micha Cárdenas, and many more, BLANK SIGN BOOK explores representation from the image to the agora. The essays are embedded deeply within the pleasure of art and the power of artist. They consider topics from the materiality of the internet, protest, sound, and gentrification, to teenage literary obsession, femicide, and decolonized time. BLANK SIGN BOOK unfolds within Selcer's decade long investigation of Western beauty, from which two award-winning poetry publications have emerged. With lyricism, incisive clarity and a deep commitment to the power of art and artists as a vehicle for experimental advocacy and radical insight, BLANK SIGN BOOK displays Selcer's capacious and assiduous grasp as an art writer and cultural thinker to be read for decades to come. BLANK SIGN BOOK emerged from Anne Lesley Selcer's tenure as inaugural Art Writing Fellow at Southern Exposure.

Download or read book Contemporary Sculpture and the Critique of Display Cultures written by Dan Adler and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-08-14 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, Dan Adler addresses recent tendencies in contemporary art toward assemblage sculpture and how these works incorporate tainted materials – often things left on the side of the road, according to the logic and progress of the capitalist machine – and combine them in ways that allow each element to retain a degree of empirical specificity. Adler develops a range of aesthetic models through which these practices can be understood to function critically. Each chapter focuses on a single exhibition: Isa Genzken’s "OIL" (German Pavilion, Venice Biennale, 2007), Geoffrey Farmer’s midcareer survey (Musée d’art contemporain, Montréal, 2008), Rachel Harrison’s "Consider the Lobster" (CCS Bard Hessel Museum of Art, 2009), and Liz Magor’s "The Mouth and Other Storage Facilities" (Henry Art Gallery, Seattle, 2008).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At a moment when the discipline of Canadian art history seems to be in flux and the study of Canadian visual culture is gaining traction outside of art history departments, the authors of Negotiations in a Vacant Lot were asked: is "Canada" - or any other nation - still relevant as a category of inquiry? Is our country simply one of many "vacant lots" where class, gender, race, ethnicity, and sexual orientation interact? What happens to the project of Canadian visual history if we imagine that Canada, as essence, place, nation, or ideal, does not exist? The argument that culture is increasingly used as an economic and socio-political resource resonates strongly with the popular strategies of "urban gurus" such as Richard Florida, and increasingly with government policy. Such strategies both contrast with, but also speak to traditions of Canadian state support for culture that have shaped the national(ist) discipline of Canadian art history. The authors of this collection stand at the multiple points where national culture and globalization collide, however, suggesting that academic investigation of the visual in Canada is contested in ways that cannot be contained by arbitrary borders. Bringing together the work of scholars from diverse backgrounds and illustrated with dozens of works of Canadian art, Negotiations in a Vacant Lot unsettles the way we have used "nation" to examine art and culture and looks ahead to a global future.

Download or read book The Lost Boys written by Paul Byrnes and published by Affirm Press. This book was released on 2019-10-29 with total page 495 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the First World War of 1914-1918, thousands of boys across Australia and New Zealand lied about their age, forged a parent's signature and left to fight on the other side of the world. Though some were as young as thirteen, they soon found they could die as well as any man. Like Peter Pan's lost boys, they have remained forever young. These are their stories. This extraordinary book captures the incredible and previously untold stories of forty Anzac boys who fought in the First World War, from Gallipoli to the Armistice. Featuring haunting images of the boys taken at training camps and behind the lines, these tales are both heartbreaking and rousing, full of daring, ingenuity, recklessness, random horror and capricious luck. A unique perspective on the First World War, The Lost Boys is military history made deeply personal, a powerful homage to youthful bravery and a poignant reminder of the sacrifice of war.

Book excerpt: Eighteen-year-old Paul Moffitt’s life as a spy began with his involvement in the interception of Japanese radio messages in May of 1942, two days after he became an Australian soldier. He spent more than three years intercepting wireless messages during World War II. He later became a doctor, committing sixty-three years of his life to medical practice and making strides in the battle against diabetes. In My Way, Paul includes stories of murder and suicide (attempted or successful) by cyanide, arsenic, thallium, shotgun, or rifle in different towns, cities, and countries; tales of accidental problems caused by consumption of black licorice or the near collision of large ships at sea; serious stories of doctors and patients; and some lighter stories as well, along with some personal opinions. Meant to both entertain and teach, this book offers insight into Paul’s long and interesting life, telling an array of tales—from the fascinating to the frightening.

Download or read book Sailing with the Stars written by Tony Harris and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2006-07-01 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a detective thriller, packed with action and suspense, for the young, both boys and girls, the young at heart, and those who wish they still were. Care has been taken to ensure the non-nautical reader won't feel all at sea, so to give these shipmates a hand, the sometimes unusual phraseology is explained. But the author does want you to really feel you are climbing the ratlines, hauling yourself up by your cold hands grasping the greasy rigging, whilst you look up at the mast head swaying across the dark threatening clouds, before climbing onto the yardarm to bundle up the sail. It's also possible that some might think the idea of Knights Templar being involved is just a bit fanciful. Be assured there are still some afloat today. In this case, four teenage pupils from the Knights Templar School in the west of England (yes, it does exist!) outwit a criminal gang, the police and the customs, but delight the intelligence agencies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book traces the history of Freemasonry in Barbados from its earliest times in 1740 through to the Consecration of Albion Lodge No. 196 E.R., in 1790 thereafter the reader will embark upon an exciting journey to the present day. Although this book has particular emphasis on the history of Albion Lodge No. 196 E.R., this Lodge did not exist in isolation. Therefore there are several pages dedicated to other Lodges meeting in Barbados and registered under the United Grand Lodge of England, Lodges registered under the Scottish Constitution, especially Lodge Scotia 340 S.C. and Lodges registered under Irish Constitutions which have long ceased to exist. There is also materials on the formation of the District Grand Lodge of Barbados and the Eastern Caribbean as it is now called, and a list of District Grand Masters, which should be of interest to members of Lodges that comprise the District. This is a must reader for every member of Albion Lodge 196 E.R., and masons of other Lodges meeting in Barbados and the Eastern Caribbean, who have a keen interest in understanding the several trials which Freemasonry had to overcome in order to become the vibrant organization it is today.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the common belief that art galleries will naturally become more gender equitable over time, the fact is that many art institutions in Canada have become even less so over the last decade, with female artists making up less than 25 per cent of the contemporary exhibitions of several major galleries. In the first large-scale overview of gender diversity in Canadian art exhibitions, Anne Dymond makes a persuasive plea for more consciously equitable curating. Drawing on data from nearly one hundred institutions, Diversity Counts reveals that while some galleries are relatively equitable, many continue to marginalize female and racialized artists. The book pursues an interdisciplinary approach, considering the art world's resistance to numeric data, discourses on representation and identity, changing conceptualizations of institutional responsibility over time, and different ways particular institutions manage inclusion and exclusion. A thoughtful examination of the duty of public galleries to represent underserved communities, Dymond's study bravely navigates the unspoken criteria for acceptance in the curatorial world. Demonstrating how important hard data is for inclusivity, Diversity Counts is a timely analysis that brings the art world up to date on progressive movements for social transformation.
