Olja Ivanjicki: Expecting the Impossible

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Olja Ivanjicki is one of Serbia’s most important and best-loved contemporary artists. Producing work since the 1950s, she first came to prominence in her native country with Mediala, a group of painters, writers, and architects that made a significant impact on the public and cultural life of Belgrade at the end of the fifties and beginning of the sixties. A recipient of a Ford Foundation scholarship in 1962, Ivanjicki left Serbia to live and work, albeit briefly, in the United States, where she was brought into contact with the most important prevailing artistic trend of the time, Pop Art. This was to have a lasting influence on her work. Ivanjicki’s paintings are distinguished by the way in which they combine the figures and symbols of diverse cultures and civilizations -- past, present, and future -- to form imaginative montages that evoke, in almost cinematic terms, the spirit of an age. She is, however, much more than just a painter: she is also a sculptor, poet, newspaper… [detailed...]

Olly and Suzi: Arctic, Desert, Ocean, Jungle

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionIn pursuit of their animal subjects, artists Olly &, Suzi start by situating themselves in the subject`s natural habitat--the wild. They approach as closely as possible and, working in tandem, quickly capture their prey on paper, using theday`s particular combination of paints, brushes, burnt sticks, natural pigments, even blood, and then offer up the finished portrait to be paw-printed, tooth-bitten, or otherwise marked by the animal for authentication. Their collaborators have included anacondas, crocodiles, polar bears, and great white sharks. Of course, occasionally a leopard decides to rip apart its own image, or a rhino devours the canvas whole. While their art yields paintings of extraordinary beauty and power, Olly &, Suzi considerit performance-based and site-specific: sometimes the only thing they come away with from an expedition is their lives. Spare, vibrant, and lyrical, the works that have survived Olly &, Suzi`s 15 years of adventures in such remote… [detailed...]

Olson Sundberg Kundig Allen Architects: Architecture, Art, and Craft

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionOver the past 35 years, Olson Sundberg Kundig Allen Architects, based in Seattle, has created a body of architecture that is recognized for its ability to merge notions of materiality, craft, and lightness, all of which are richly demonstrated in their work on art collectors? residences and art museums. The firm began its creative existence with architect Jim Olson, whose work in the late 1960s explored the complex relationship between dwellings and the landscape they inhabit. In theearly 1970s the growing firm broadened its emphasis to include urbanism and the landscape of the city. Though firmly rooted in the regional features of the Pacific Northwest -- its unique climate and dramatic landscape -- the firm?s work extendsbeyond any regionalist classification. Instead, their projects are charecterized by a relaxed modernism that is attuned to its regional context. Each of the projects featured in this volume exhibit a striking use of both natural and… [detailed...]

Olympic Gangster: The Legend of Jose Beyaert - Cycling Champion, Fortune Hunter and Outlaw

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Restlessly vital and possessed of great physical strength, Jose Beyaert lived many lives. During the Second World War, he boxed and trafficked arms for the Resistance on his bicycle. After it, he became an international cyclist. In 1948, a mile from the end of the Olympic road race around Windsor Park, he broke away alone to take the gold medal and started an adventure that would last the rest of his life. A Tour de France rider in the sport`s golden age, Jose was invited to open a new velodrome in Colombia, South America. He travelled, intending to stay a month. Instead, driven by his thirst for adventure, he stayed for fifty years, becoming by turns athlete, coach, businessman, emerald-trader, logger, smuggler, perhaps even hired killer. Matt Rendell, who knew Jose Beyaert and met many of his family, friends and associates, tells the fascinating story of an almost-forgotten sporting hero who, incapable of living to other people`s rules, lived his many lives on his own terms.

2008 y.
Publisher: Routledge
Description: No sporting event has a wider scope than an Olympic telecast. With this international reach comes great power and potential impact on many societies a power that many critics claim is being misused. This is the first academic text to explore TV sports media`s output from this `behind the scenes` perspective including the first scholarly interviews with the influential US broadcasters and producers and sports media professionals. This unique text examines how NBC does (or doesn`t) construct its coverage with identity issues in mind. Interviews with key media personnel and analysis of the telecast processes before, during and after the Olympics provide the basis for introducing media and cultural studies theory and discussion of sports media in modern society more generally.

Description: Higher, faster, stronger… The Olympic motto conjures images of heroes whose achievements transcended their athletic prowess (Jesse Owens, Mark Spitz, Nadia Comanesci), but also of tragedy and disgrace (the Israeli hostages in Munich, the Salt Lake City bidding scandal, payola to influence scoring). By 1980, the modern Olympic movement was gasping for breath, bankrupt financially, politically, and culturally. But under the leadership of Juan Antonio Samaranch, and, subsequently, Jacques Rogge, the Olympics began a journey back from the brink. Формат: 16 см x 24 см. [detailed...]
