This book was released on 2021-04-02. Artwords available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Artwords is precisely that. Art and words combined to form a fusion of art and literature. Th is work is composed of colorful literary artworks consisting of calligrams, photographs, and redactive poetry. They are different forms of writing which can be both read and appreciated visually. Words have power. Words form images. But what if they formed images you could see with your eyes? Being both an artist and a writer, has led Beatriz Robles to want to create literature that could be seen as artwork as well. Coming from her second book, A Sensual World: What do you see?, the style of writing in Artwords takes it one step further as the writing itself becomes the art. They are one. Artwords is painting with words. It's taking a pair of scissors and making them a little more interesting, transforming it into literary art. And that was the genesis for Artwords- a book for everyone, for art lovers and readers; a book not just for your mind but for your eyes as well. "Th e prose of Bea Robles teases us into thought with its rich layers of meaning. Th e reader will be rewarded with this imaginative combination of illustration and prose. "Danton Remoto, author of Riverrun, on Robles' second book, A Sensual World: What do you see? "Enchanting images systematically embellish the book, serving as unravelling of meanings or purposes." Edgar O. Cruz, Daily Tribune, on Robles' second book, A Sensual World: What do you See? "Robles is not always serious. Her stream-of-consciousness has naughty turns...sections end a la O. Henry. Unexpected...Th e sections are accompanied/depicted with photos which she herself took, including her own paintings." Paul Blanco Zafaralla, Manila Bulletin, on Robles' first book, Life through Letters Her artwork has been described to have a "disarming quality that by turns is soothing, hypnotic, mesmerizing."

Download and read online ebook Tove Jansson Life, Art, Words write by Boel Westin. This book was released on 2013-12-18. Tove Jansson Life, Art, Words available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. The Finnish-Swedish writer and artist Tove Jansson achieved worldwide fame as the creator of the Moomin stories, written between 1945 and 1970 and still in print in more than twenty languages. However, the Moomins were only a part of her prodigious output. Already admired in Nordic art circles as a painter, cartoonist and illustrator, she would go on to write a series of classic novels and short stories. She remains Scandinavia's best loved author. Tove Jansson's work reflected the tenets of her life: her love of family (and special bond with her mother), of nature, and her insistence on freedom to pursue her art. Love and work was the motto she chose for herself and her approach to both was joyful and uncompromising. If her relationships with men foundered on her ambivalence towards marriage, those with women came as a revelation, especially the love and companionship she found with her long-time partner, the artist Tuulikki Pietilä, with whom she lived on the solitary island of Klovharu. In this meticulously researched, authorised biography, Boel Westin draws together the many threads of Jansson's life: from the studies interrupted to help her family; the dark shades of war and her emergence as an artist with a studio of her own; to the years of Moomin-mania, and later novel writing. Based on numerous conversations with Tove, and unprecedented access to her journals, letters and personal archives, Tove Jansson: Life, Art, Words offers a rare and privileged insight into the world of a writer whom Philip Pullman described, simply, as 'a genius'.

Download and read online ebook Still Life write by Fernando Domínguez Rubio. This book was released on 2020-08-19. Still Life available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. How do you keep the cracks in Starry Night from spreading? How do you prevent artworks made of hugs or candies from disappearing? How do you render a fading photograph eternal—or should you attempt it at all? These are some of the questions that conservators, curators, registrars, and exhibition designers dealing with contemporary art face on a daily basis. In Still Life, Fernando Domínguez Rubio delves into one of the most important museums of the world, the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York, to explore the day-to-day dilemmas that museum workers face when the immortal artworks that we see in the exhibition room reveal themselves to be slowly unfolding disasters. Still Life offers a fascinating and detailed ethnographic account of what it takes to prevent these disasters from happening. Going behind the scenes at MoMA, Domínguez Rubio provides a rare view of the vast technological apparatus—from climatic infrastructures and storage facilities, to conservation labs and machine rooms—and teams of workers—from conservators and engineers to guards and couriers—who fight to hold artworks still. As MoMA reopens after a massive expansion and rearranging of its space and collections, Still Life not only offers a much-needed account of the spaces, actors, and forms of labor traditionally left out of the main narratives of art, but it also offers a timely meditation on how far we, as a society, are willing to go to keep the things we value from disappearing into oblivion.

Download and read online ebook The Postmodernist Turn write by J. David Hoeveler. This book was released on 2004. The Postmodernist Turn available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. During the 1970s, the United States became the world's preeminent postindustrial society. The new conditions changed the way Americans lived and worked, and even their perceptions of reality. Americans struggled to find their place in a world where symbol became more important than fact, appearance more important than reality, where image supplanted essence. In this reassessment of a little studied decade, J. David Hoeveler, Jr., finds that the sense of detachment and dislocation that characterizes the postindustrial society serves as a paradigm for American thought and culture in the 1970s. The book examines major developments in literary theory, philosophy, architecture, and painting as expressions of a 1970s consciousness. Hoeveler also explores the rival "political" readings of these subjects and considers the postmodernist phenomenon as it became an ideological battleground in the decade. Clear and engaging, the work will be of great interest to historians, theorists, and everyone who wants to further explore the 1970s.
