Geduld &, Gorillas: How Illustrators Are ``Made`` (German Edition)

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: It`s the sub-title - How Illustrators are ``Made`` - that gives the key to this unique book. The plates here are so beautiful that the book stands on its own for aficionados of cutting-edge illustration. But we`ve never seen a text like this, a collection of essays and dialogs teaching the art of illustration from the faculty of the esteemed Lucern School of Art &, Design in Switzerland. Illustration is a special art because it depends on the text or concept it is meant to illuminate. This substantial volume presents the viewer not just with illustrations, ``but also with the context and motives leading to their creation,`` writes Pierre Thome, head of the Department of Illustration at the school. He stresses that the art is presented in full format and extended picture runs, ``as illustrations shown out of context can`t do justice to the original concept - like an overture being reduced to a ring tone.``The introduction points out that art of illustration runs from ancient Roman… [detailed...]

Warren G. Bennis, Robert J. Thomas
Geeks and Geezers

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Today`s young leaders grew up in the glow of television and computers, the leaders of their grandparents` generation in the shadow of the Depression and World War II. In a groundbreaking study of these two disparate groups-affectionately labeled `geeks` and `geezers`-legendary leadership expert Warren Bennis and leadership consultant Robert Thomas set out to find out how era and values shape those who lead. What they discovered was something far more profound: the powerful process through which leaders of any era emerge. Geeks and Geezers is a book that will forever change how we view not just leadership-but the very way we learn and ultimately live our lives. It presents for the first time a compelling new model that predicts who is likely to become-and remain-a leader, and why. At the heart of this model are what the authors call `crucibles`-utterly transforming periods of testing from which one can emerge either hopelessly broken, or powerfully emboldened to… [detailed...]

Geekspeak: A Guide to Answering the Unanswerable, Making Sense of the Nonsensical, and Solving the Unsolvable

2010 y.
Publisher: —
Description: How big is your vocabulary? How heavy is your house? Do the dead outnumber the living? What are the best words to use in a personal ad? We humans are a curious species, prone to think, ruminate, reflect, cogitate, mull over, and philosophize. We long to explain away the world around us, to answer all those seeming unanswerables: Why are we here? Is there a God? Is there life after death? And, above all, how many houseflies does it take to pull a car? A confirmed and superior geek, Dr. Graham Tattersall has rescued math from the prison of the classroom and put it to use in novel and unexpected ways to explain some oft-pondered mysteries of the world. Geekspeak is an essential tool that will help you exercise your brain and solve the unsolvable, make you sound intelligent so you can impress your friends, and enable you to better understand the fascinating world in which we live in ways never possible before. Math has a new champion, and the geeks a new king. [detailed...]

Gego: Between Transparency and the Invisible (Houston Museum of Fine Arts)

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Latin American artist Gego (1912–1994) produced a range of line-based abstract work, including drawings, prints, and wire sculptures. Focusing on a rare series of monotypes from the early 1950s, drawings and prints, and “drawings without paper” and “tejeduras” (woven paper pieces) of the late 1970s and 1980s, this fascinating book traces Gego’s exploration of line and space. Gego used lines as conceptual and visual tools to create in-between spaces within her works. Whether drawing lines on paper or projecting them into space, the artist sought to “make visible the invisible.” She believed that line could express what is not physically present in nature––including thought, intuition, and emotions. By manipulating the density of the lines or by interrupting them, she brought light, shadow, and feeling into her linear works. [detailed...]

Description: Book DescriptionGeisha … at the slightest evocation of this little Japanese word there appears instantly before the eyes of Westerners a succession of images swaying gently between languorous voluptuousness and erotic fantasy. And yet, far from being asimple `creature` destined to satisfy carnal pleasures, the `geisha` sums up the quintessence of Japanese refinement. A source of inspiration for print artists who took the curve of a shoulder, the roundness of a breast and the delicacy of a neck to satiation, she embodies, above all, the ideal `Woman.` This intelligent and cultured coutesan is simultaneously musician, poet and dancer. Westerners prefer to celebrate in her the myth of the girl-woman, mid-way between spouse and doll. [detailed...]

Bob Geldof
Geldof in Africa

2007 y.
Publisher: —
Description: A unique portrait of an extraordinary and beautiful land, now in paperback. Drenched in sun, pounded by heat, Africa is a continent like no other. Within it are deserts of rolling sands, tropical jungles, savannas with exotic wild beasts, and coasts teeming with fish. Africa is home to more people, cultures and languages than any other place on the planet. It is indeed one of earth’s jewels. Bob Geldof first visited Africa in 1984 and was touched to the heart by the deplorable living conditions on that continent. That same year he initiated Band Aid, a record whose sole proceeds went to help victims of famine in Africa. The following year, he organized the first Live Aid concert, which raised $180,000. Live Aid went on to inspire a whole generation to raise millions for the starving in Africa. Over twenty years later, Geldof’s passion for what he calls the Luminous Continent remains undiminished. He travelled there once more and recorded his… [detailed...]

Gellius the Satirist: Roman Cultural Authority in Attic Nights (Mnemosyne Supplements: Monographs on Greek and Roman Language and Literature)

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: This monograph presents an original portrait of the second-century miscellanist Aulus Gellius, based on a detailed reading of `Attic Nights` against its contemporary background. Highlighting Gellius` use of humour and irony in his portrayals of controversial celebrities such as Favorinus and Herodes Atticus, this book provides a necessary corrective to interpretations of Gellius as an uncritical philhellene or an apolitical bookworm. Distinguishing Gellius` various literary personae (the youthful sectator, the independent researcher, the mature writer and adviser), this book uncovers the many-layered sophistication of Gellius` self-presentation. Noting previously unrecognised allusions to literary works and contemporary events, it offers a fresh perspective on Gellius as a satirical writer, whose Roman cultural programme reflects the ambiguities and complexities of Antonine intellectual life.
