Nancy Mowll Mathews
Paul Gauguin: An Erotic Life

2001 y.
Publisher: Yale University Press
Description: In this penetrating and daring biography of Paul Gauguin, Nancy Mowll Mathews traces the themes of sex and violence through the artist`s life, from the near-murderous quarrels of his grandparents, to his abusive treatment of his wife, to his sexual encounters in French Polynesia in the 1890s. She examines how Gauguin used these complex themes in his art and writings and how he carefully presented his `erotic life` in the autobiographical treatises Noa Noa (1893) and `Avant et apres` (1903). The central drama of Gauguin`s adulthood - his marriage to Mette Gad - is assessed in detail, and with the inclusion of some of Mette`s previously unpublished letters, both sides of the Gauguin marriage are presented for the first time. Besides providing fascinating new insights into Gauguin`s relationships with men and women and the roles that sexuality and aggression played in shaping his art, Mathews illuminates his homosocial, if not homoerotic, relationships with Vincent van Gogh,… [detailed...]

Description: Paul Gauguin (1848-1903) continues to exert an extraordinary fascination through both his life and his works. This study focuses on the years from the artist`s first journey to Tahiti in 1891 to his death in the South Pacific in 1903. During his stay in Tahiti, Gauguin achieved an unprecedented intensity of colour and formal simplicity in his painting. This volume presents many of Gauguin`s paintings from these years, including pages from his illustrated book, `Noa Noa`. The accompanying text recounts the story of the artist`s life in Tahiti, and examines his prodigious artistic output during that period. [detailed...]

Paul Gauguin: Letters to His Wife and Friends

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book Description`May the day come--and perhaps soon--when I can flee to the woods on a South Sea island and live there in ecstasy, in peace and for art,` Gauguin wrote to his wife, Mette, in 1890. As both art history and enduring legend have shown, Gauguin`s life in the South Seas was anything but ecstatic or peaceful, even as he created some of the most revolutionary and iconic objects of his time. This book, to date the most comprehensive volume of the painter`s letters to be published, offers an uncensored glimpse into Gauguin`s life, from his days as a young newlywed reporting on the birth of his first child, through his early developments as an artist and finally throughout the extraordinary adventure of his years in Tahiti and the Marquesas. Gauguin`s writings, from Noa Noa to his Intimate Journals , have proven him a talented, uninhibited literary stylist. Nowhere is this more evident than in these letters to many of his closest associates and, above all, to Mette,… [detailed...]

Paul Graham: New Europe

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionThis is the first U.S. release of this widely praised book. New Europe seeks to dig beneath the utopian dream of a united continent arising to face the dawn of the 21st century. Paul Graham`s photographs reflect on the inescapable shadow of history that falls over each nation`s conscience, from the dictatorships of Franco and Hitler, to the Holocaust and the Irish conflict. Thus burden is interwoven with a questioning of the banality of modern day consumption-led culture. Neither anarrative nor a conventional documentary, this body of photographs builds into a visual poem that resonates across the social and psychological landscape of Europe today.

Paul Graham

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: A pioneer in the reinvention of contemporary photography as art photography, Paul Graham was one of the first photographers to bring the possibilities of color to the genre of social documentary as we now understand it. His work in the early 1980s prompted photographers like Martin Parr to switch to color, and a new style of photography soon evolved in the works of Richard Billingham, Tom Wood, Simon Norfolk, Jem Southam and many others. Since then, Graham has continued to push the envelope, demonstrating a commitment to expanding photography`s artistic space, and to the unity of documentary and artistic considerations in an unblinking engagement with life as it unfolds. Today, he ranks alongside figures like Nan Goldin, Andreas Gursky, Philip-Lorca diCorcia and Rineke Djikstra as a precursor and an eminence. Graham`s most recent volume, A Shimmer of Possibility (published in 2007 and already a collector`s item--and available below in a new paperback edition), was hailed by critics as… [detailed...]

Paul Green, Playwright of the Real South: Playwright of the Real South

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionThis is the most thorough and comprehensive biography to date of writer and activist Paul Green (1894-1981). Winner of the Pulitzer Prize for his play In Abraham`s Bosom and author of the pioneering symphonic drama The Lost Colony, Green was a literary figure of national prominence during the 1920s and 1930s. During this time of experimentation and boldness in American theater, Green was praised by directors and critics, had a play chosen three times for the collection Year`s Best Plays, and gained the respect of African American actors longing for meaningful roles. Green`s personal and political convictions fully complemented the social-realist leanings of his art, a literary output comprising plays in many forms, essays, folklore collections, novels, and film scripts. In places like his native North Carolina, Green stood apart even from other proponents of integration by claiming that sexual as well as social intermingling of the races was a natural occurrence in… [detailed...]

Description: In 1994, ethnic conflict turned to genocide in Rwanda. When the world finally took notice, a million people lay dead, and the small African country lay in ruins. Rwanda returned from the brink guided by rulers determined to rebuild the country on their own terms, rather than those of a previously indifferent international community. Paul Kagame, Rwanda?s first democratically elected president, embodies the new Rwandan political philosophy. Young, unconventional, not without flaws andcritics?Kagame is key to understanding Rwanda?s transition from a country that had known only fear, division and clan-based nepotism for many years to an exceptional African state built upon traditional order and values.

Paul Klee, Poet/Painter (Studies in German Literature Linguistics and Culture)

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: It is no coincidence that most of the artists at the vanguard of early 20th-century modernist art were poets as well as painters. Paul Klee (1879-1940) was among them. Known today almost exclusively as a visual artist, he was also a poet who experimented across a range of poetic forms. In 1901, while still vacillating between a career as a painter and one as a poet, Klee predicted he would end up expressing himself through the word, `the highest form of art.` This first scholarly monograph devoted to Klee`s poetry proposes that he lived up to that prediction. It considers poems he identified as such and visual images that are poetic in their compositional techniques, metaphorical imagery, and linear structures. It provides selected examples of Klee`s poetry along with English translations that capture the spirit and literal meaning of the German originals. It places the poems and related images within the spectrum of contemporary poetic practice, revealing that Klee matched wits with… [detailed...]

Free at last to take control of his own songwriting, McCartney used his new group, Wings, to produce popular, classy music, most notably the Band on the Run album. Since those early days of freedom, McCartney has established himself as one of the most creative artists of his generation. With projects ranging from the soundtrack to the movie Give My Regards to Broad Street to the more recent, critically acclaimed show Liverpool Oratorio, he has also proved that his talents transcend what John Lennon once sardonically called `granny music.` Celebrating McCartney`s four decades of unparalleled success, this book is a multifaceted account of a world-class talent.

Paul Mccarthy: Head Shop/ Shop Head, Works, 1966-2006

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Although Paul McCarthy was born in 1945, has been working for nearly 40 years and is counted among the most influential figures of his generation, he didn`t become known to the general public until the early 1990s. Because of this, and because he has frequently collaborated with younger artists like Mike Kelley and Jason Rhoades, many people think mistakenly that McCarthy belongs to a younger generation. Perhaps this is also because his portfolio includes works like the 1993 Spaghetti Man, a mannequin-like child figure with a penis so long it coils in front of him, who likes to stand around galleries in nothing but a T-shirt and a furry bunny face mask. Works like these--uneasy, funny, wise--undertake a critical processing of Western culture, its traumas and taboos, and the institutions that shape its denizens. Hollywood, Disney and the family are a few of McCarthy`s direct sources of inspiration. Head Shop/Shop Head: Works 1966-2006 features seven large installations,… [detailed...]

Description: Book DescriptionThe first retrospective catalog of this Austrian-born artist`s work over the past half-century. In the nearly five hundred works that make up this luminous collection, Paul Rotterdam`s evolution as an artist is strikingly evident. Thematically as well as technically, Rotterdam--whose work has gained increasing acclaim in the U.S. where he has lived since the 1960s--can be called an abstract expressionist. But looking beyond the delicate steeliness of his canvasses, which are reminiscent of Rothko, Kandinsky, and Mondrian, the influence of nature and landscape is readily apparent. Featuring large-scale as well as smaller works?many of which are included in this country`s most renowned museums?and complemented by six essays, this monograph displays Rotterdam`s creative journey, in which he has found the fragile balance between emotion and reason, imagination and form.

Yet, few people know the work of the last decades of his life, from the 1970s through the 90s. Published here for the first time, Rudolph`s final works are explored through his masterful pencil drawings, models, and photographs, as well as the last interview of his life with architect Peter Blake. In a book that considers these projects in the context of his early success, Roberto de Alba explores the architect`s buildings designed from 1969 to 1996 and includes an astonishing variety of projects, many built, such as houses, towers, bungalows, chapels, corporate buildings, and urban plans of a monumental scale.
