Eve Sussmann: Louisiana Contemporary

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Brooklyn-based Eve Sussmann founded the Rufus Corporation, an ad hoc group of artists, dancers, actors and musicians who create videos, photographs and live events, in 2003. This volume compiles film stills from two works for which Sussmann and her collaborators are most known. 89 Seconds at Alcazar` (2004) is a high-definition video tableau inspired by Diego Velazquez`s painting `Las Meninas` (1656). The piece focuses on the 89 seconds when the Spanish royal family and their courtiers would have been in the exact configuration portrayed in the painting. The Rape of the Sabine Women--featuring a mesmerizing score composed by Jonathan Bepler--is an allegorical video that conflates the myth of Romulus` founding of Rome with David`s painting `Intervention of the Sabine Women` (1796-99). It is set in an idealized, cinematic version of the 1960s that includes G-men and a decadent party in a chic International Style summer home.` [detailed...]

Sally Webster
Eve`s Daughter/ Modern Woman: A Mural by Mary Cassatt

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionOften regarded as merely the creator of sentimental images of mothers and children or an expatriate heavily influenced by Impressionism, Mary Cassatt is not typically regarded as an artist of radical convictions. In Eve`s Daughter/Modern Woman , Sally Webster reevaluates these dismissals with a historical, aesthetic, and symbolist analysis of Cassatt`s unique venture into the male-dominated realm of large-scale mural painting, Modern Woman . Commissioned for the Woman`s Building at Chicago`s 1893 World`s Columbian Exposition, Modern Woman also stood as a personal and professional manifesto. This book undertakes a complete overview of Cassatt`s mural, synthesizing a wide variety of interpretations and original observations to present the first complete treatment of the work. Webster connects the symbolism of the painting to Cassatt`s life as a woman artist and a member of the Parisian avant-garde, and to the history of woman`s emancipation. She… [detailed...]

Afschineh and her three siblings were left in the care of their mother, who did everything in her power to free her husband from jail, and who struggled to survive in a newly fundamentalist society that was openly hostile to women. In the torturous weeks and months that followed, Mrs. Latifi and her husband communicated by writing notes to each other on tiny squares of paper, and bribing the guards to pass them back and forth. ` Mommie joon`e azizam ghorbanat ,` Colonel Latifi wrote in one of them. `My beloved for whom I would give my life. Please take care of the children … Do not worry about me. I am well.` The situation continued to deteriorate, however, both in and out of prison.

Description: When most people think of TV news, it`s of network stars commanding millions of dollars and watched by millions of people. But more people watch their local stations than the network news, and most journalists work in local news. So what is it actually like? Is it glamorous, fun, lucrative? Or not so much? Even Worse Than We Had Hoped provides the answers. Part memoir, part examination of the TV business, this book pulls back the curtain on local news while recounting a funny and fascinating personal journey. Paul Spelman started out as a one-man band TV reporter in a small town and ended up in Washington, D.C. Even Worse Than We Had Hoped isn`t about life at the top of the media food chain, it`s about working your way toward it, and what it`s really like chasing a dream in the TV trenches. [detailed...]
