Publisher: —
Description: Albert Einstein was one of the most brilliant scientists who ever lived. The theories that he formulated about time, light and gravity have changed how we look at the world, and resulted in many new inventions.

Using photographs, maps, quotes, letters and drawings, this biography in the Snapshots: Images of People and Places in History series introduces young readers to Albert Einstein.

Albert Ellis: American Revolutionary

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Focusing on Albert Ellis`s formulation of the key concepts of Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy, the original form of cognitive-behavioral therapy, this unconventional biography describes how the techniques he devised to deal with his personal problems, such as severe illnesses, stage fright, and pathological shyness, directly affected his professional theories and techniques. Also covered are Ellis`s decades-long struggles to promote his theories and the tremendous resistance to those theories in the psychological and psychiatric establishments. Ellis`s revolutionary political activites as a young man are described at length, as well as his famous feud with Ayn Rand, his numerous contributions to the field of sexology, his courageous battles in the 1950s and 1960s against the forces of sexual repression, and his relationships with such notable figures as Alfred Kinsey, Lenny Bruce, and Paul Kantner.

Albert Maysles (Contemporary Film Directors)

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Albert Maysles has created some of the most influential documentaries of the postwar period. Such films as Salesman, Gimme Shelter, and Grey Gardens continue to generate intense debate about the ethics and aesthetics of the documentary form. In this in-depth study, Joe McElhaney offers a novel understanding of the historical relevance of Maysles. By closely focusing on Maysles`s expressive use of his camera, particularly in relation to the filming of the human figure, this book situates Maysles`s films within not only documentary film history but film history in general, arguing for their broad-ranging importance to both narrative film and documentary cinema. Complete with an engaging interview with Maysles and a detailed comparison of the variant releases of his documentary on the Beatles (What`s Happening: The Beatles in the U.S.A. and The Beatles: The First U.S. Visit), this work is a pivotal study of a significant filmmaker.

Albert Paley: Sculpture

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: The monumental site-specific metal assemblages Albert Paley has created over the past three decades place him not only in the forefront of contemporary sculpture but also in the vanguard among artists working in the new, genre-defying area that has been called `Archisculpture.` This richly illustrated monograph presents the full spectrum of Albert Paley`s work. Paley goes beyond creating sculptures that stand as isolated works of art. His sculptures enhance the spaces in which they are placed and, in return, are enhanced by those spaces. He has established himself as an artist who is constantly pushing boundaries, questioning old categories and redefining himself in his own distinctive idiom, at once visionary and persuasively tangible. Noted art historian Donald Kuspit discusses Paley`s development as an artist, his virtuosity as a monumental sculptor and his diverse and significant achievements. [detailed...]

Albert Steiner: The Photographic Work

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Albert Steiner was one of the finest Swiss photographers of the twentieth century. Like Ansel Adams, he favored imposing natural phenomena, landscapes with what might be called good bone structure, (in his case the Alps, in AdamsA­s comparable work, the American West), and he printed his vision of them in black-and-white, revealing nature in all its majesty. His impressive scenic work has fundamentally shaped the worldA­s perception of Switzerland as an alpine country of timeless beauty. It spans the period from before World War I--an era of pictorially inspired images that look like oil paintings--to the straightforward and elegantly modern photography of the 1930s. Unlike many other photographers of the same generation active in the same area, Steiner saw photography as a completely appropriate means of creating works of art, and considered himself an artist.

Description: Albrecht Durer is the most significant and admired artist of the northern Renaissance. Tracing his work and influence from his earliest career to his powerful posthumous role within German culture, this richly illustrated book surveys all of the artist`s best-known prints as well as numerous drawings and watercolors. The catalogue of a greatly anticipated exhibition of Durer`s work in England--including loans of many precious works rarely seen by the public--the volume features 85 color and 267 black-and-white illustrations. It follows Durer`s career from his first work in the medieval tradition of Martin Schongauer, through his Italian education in the classical tradition, to his sophisticated development of the woodcut and engraving techniques that changed the history of printmaking. The book examines Durer`s long-lived influence, from the obsession of artists and collectors with his work during the late sixteenth century to the iconic status he acquired… [detailed...]
