"American painter, sculptor, and print maker Donald Sultan rose to prominence in the electrified atmosphere of New York's downtown art renaissance in the late 1970S and 1980s. Before the use of graffiti and post-modern figuration appeared in the galleries and art magazines, Sultan's simple iconography and complex technique of gouged, spackled, and painted tar-encrusted grids of linoleum tiles attached to Masonite captured immediate and enthusiastic attention. The works were abstract, erotic, and powerful." "Donald Sultan: The Theater of the Object is the first comprehensive monograph of the artist's distinguished 30-year career. Through the years, Sultan has become a master printmaker as well as a painter and draftsman. This book provides important examples of each medium and is divided into his abiding preoccupations with the industrial, artificial, and natural worlds, and offers insightful comparisons of the marriage of method and image. In 1987 Sultan told art critic Barbara Rose that his mission as an artist was "to haul painting into the 21st century." Now, almost a decade into that century, it is a perfect moment to review his progress. Today, Sultan's work can be found in more than fifty museums worldwide, including the Museum of Modern Art in New York, The Art Institute of Chicago, the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., and the Tate Modern in London. Influenced by artists from Sasetta to Manet, Weston to Warhol, Sultan uses architectonic painting structures as the vehicle for advancing his mission."--BOOK JACKET.

Spring snow is the first novel of Japanese writer Yukio Mishima's landmark tetralogy, The Sea of Fertility. Alison Turnbull condenses the narrative into a colour chart. Working from the English edition, she isolates and orders each of the more than six hundred colours as they appear in the text - what emerges is a visual essay on the nature of translation.

Battle in the Mind Fields by John A. Goldsmith,Bernard Laks Pdf
“We frequently see one idea appear in one discipline as if it were new, when it migrated from another discipline, like a mole that had dug under a fence and popped up on the other side.” Taking note of this phenomenon, John Goldsmith and Bernard Laks embark on a uniquely interdisciplinary history of the genesis of linguistics, from nineteenth-century currents of thought in the mind sciences through to the origins of structuralism and the ruptures, both political and intellectual, in the years leading up to World War II. Seeking to explain where contemporary ideas in linguistics come from and how they have been justified, Battle in the Mind Fields investigates the porous interplay of concepts between psychology, philosophy, mathematical logic, and linguistics. Goldsmith and Laks trace theories of thought, self-consciousness, and language from the machine age obsession with mind and matter to the development of analytic philosophy, behaviorism, Gestalt psychology, positivism, and structural linguistics, emphasizing throughout the synthesis and continuity that has brought about progress in our understanding of the human mind. Arguing that it is impossible to understand the history of any of these fields in isolation, Goldsmith and Laks suggest that the ruptures between them arose chiefly from social and institutional circumstances rather than a fundamental disparity of ideas.
A timely consideration of African-American artists' rich engagement with the history of art from the twentieth century, this book is the winner of the James A. Porter and David C. Driskell Book Award for African American Art History. Riffs and Relations: African American Artists and the European Modernist Tradition presents works by African American artists of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries together with works by the early-twentieth-century European artists with whom they engaged. Black artists have investigated, interrogated, invaded, entangled, annihilated, or immersed themselves in the aesthetics, symbolism, and ethos of European art for more than a century. The powerful push and pull of this relationship constitutes a distinct tradition for many African American artists who source the master narratives of art history to critique, embrace, or claim their own space. This groundbreaking catalog--accompanying a major exhibition at the Phillips Collection in Washington, D.C.--explores the connections and frictions around modernism in the works of artists such as Romare Bearden, Pablo Picasso, Faith Ringgold, Renee Cox, Robert Colescott, Norman Lewis, Hank Willis Thomas, Carrie Mae Weems and Henri Matisse. The volume explores how blackness has often been conceived from the standpoint of these international and intergenerational connections and presents the divergent and complex works born of these important dialogues.
