Hemingway And the Mechanism of Fame: Statements, Public Letters, Introductions, Forewords, Prefaces, Blurbs, Reviews, And Endorsements

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionErnest Hemingway was famous for being famous. He assiduously cultivated different and sometimes divergent personae?sportsman, soldier, aesthetician, patriot, drinker, womanizer, intellectual, anti-intellectual, sage, brawler, world traveler, war correspondent, big-game hunter, and even author?each chosen to foster his place in the American cultural consciousness and support the sales of his books. In every role he projected the insider?s air of authority and expertise that was presumed credible, even when not wholly deserved. His success in these self-legendizing efforts to couple nonliterary celebrity with literary stature is evident in his continued fame among those familiar and unfamiliar with his books. Hemingway and the Mechanism of Fame assembles Hemingway?s public writings about himself, all framed as documents of support for or criticism of other people and other products. Comprising fifty-four public statements and letters,… [detailed...]

Masterfully written, Hemingway brings to life the writer whose desperatestruggle to exorcise his demons produced some of the greatest American fiction of this century. [detailed...]

Hendrik Petrus Berlage: Complete Works

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Berlage was a significant personality in modern Dutch architecture. His career consisted of extraordinary constructive achievements: the Amsterdam Stock Market, which recaptures Romanesque forms through the austere simplicity of its volumes and its use of exposed brick, urbanistic plans for Amsterdam, The Hague, Rotterdam and Utrecht, based on highly unitary compositional designs in open contrast with contemporary trends, as well as extremely controversial works such as the Christian Science Church and the City Museum of The Hague. This book clarifies less well-documented sections of the architect`s oeuvre and includes a systematic index along with a catalogue of his writings, many archive images and an important photographic survey.

Hendrix

2009 y.
Publisher: Taschen
Description: Raised on the blues, James Marshall Hendrix exploded onto the international stage in 1967 fronting his own Jimi Hendrix Experience trio. The world had seen nothing like him before: a wild-haired, blues-rocking, singer-songwriter whose southpaw guitar-playing talent and showmanship captivated audiences on both sides of the Atlantic. Wowing fans and critics alike, Hendrix took blues-rock to previously unheard heights creating a unique sound filled with amplified distortions, wild feedback and liquid solo riffs. His live performances became legendary, hallmarked with teeth-playing antics and guitar-burning rituals, while his personal life followed an equally fascinating and destructive path. Dead at just 27 Hendrix became the poster boy for the psychedelic era`s sex, drugs and rock `n` roll lifestyle. Transforming the landscape of rock music forever, the seminal recordings from his four studio albums broke bold new ground and his unrivaled fret-work has influenced successive generations… [detailed...]

This is a unique gallery of urban landscapes rendered by a great sensibility - Cartier-Bresson`s homage to the place perhaps closest to his heart. [detailed...]

Publisher: —
Description: Henri Cartier-Bresson`s famous scrapbook from the 1940s, published in its entirety for the first time. Henri Cartier-Bresson was taken prisoner by the Germans in 1940. After two unsuccessful attempts, he managed to escape in 1943. During this period, the Museum of Modern Art in New York, assuming that the photographer had died in the war, started preparing what they thought would be a posthumous exhibition of his work. When he reappeared, Cartier-Bresson was delighted to learn of the exhibition and decided to review his entire oeuvre and curate it himself. In 1946 Cartier-Bresson traveled to New York with about 300 prints in his suitcase, bought a scrapbook, glued in the photos, and brought that album to MoMA`s curators. His exhibition there, a celebration of his survival, opened on February 4, 1947. In the 1990s, Cartier-Bresson once again turned his attention to this scrapbook. Following his death in 2004, the Fondation Henri Cartier-Bresson, the present… [detailed...]

It was Cartier-Bresson who fixed in our minds the features of his contemporaries: Giacometti and Sartre as characters from their own works, Mauriac mysteriously levitating, Faulkner, Matisse, Camus, and countless others captured at the decisive moment in portraits for eternity. An intensely private individual, Cartier-Bresson confided in his close friend Pierre Assouline over a number of years, even opening up his archives to him. Here, for the first time, we read about his youthful devotion to surrealism, his unending passion for drawing, the war and the prison camps, the friends and the women in… [detailed...]

This elegantly produced volume presents all aspects of Matisse`s cut-outs, from the early models for Jazz to the large-scale works that dominated his final creative period. When Jazz, Matisse`s revolutionary handmade book of paper cut-outs, was published in the early 1940s, it was considered a dramatic new step for the artist, who had already blazed new ground as the founder of the Fauvist movement. In his paintings Matisse had long been working toward a goal of a perfect synthesis of line and color. By putting scissor to colored paper, he was able to refine his technique, and he came to see the cut-out as his primary artistic medium in his late career.
