Gary Kent
Shadows &, Light: Journeys With Outlaws in Revolutionary Hollywood

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Shadows and Light illuminates the “reel” revolution that started in 1960 with director John Cassavetes` work. It is written by writer/director, actor, stuntman, special effects guru, production manager Gary Kent. An officer in this revolution, Kent compiled credits on over one hundred motion pictures and won several major film awards. This book is Kent`s homage to the artistic, talented makers of magic, who began on the bottom of the dog-pile making biker flicks and nudie cuties and today find themselves on top of the Hollywood heap. The book is filled with memories, reminiscences, inside information, heretofore unknown facts, anecdotes and photos accumulated over forty-some years in independent, outrageous and courageous cinema. Kent provides a glimpse into the mystery of preparing stunt, action and special effects sequences without resorting to computer graphics and offers an inside take at the making of some favorite motion pictures, from concept to release. The books… [detailed...]

Since then, only secrets and whispers have inhabited the Shadows. Now, a resourceful young preservationist approaches the Miami Police Department`s Cold Case Squad to help block a developer`s plan to bulldoze the Shadows and build high-rise towers.

Shadows In My House Of Sunshine: A Journey of Discovery

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: When you reach the end of Emilie Betts’ courageous memoir, “Shadows in My House of Sunshine,” you will feel like you are old friends. Her writing takes you on her life’s journey, from the loss of a happy childhood home during the Great Depression, through her family’s struggle to survive, to the later years of her life, when a surprise twist showed her a happy home could be anywhere. Emilie’s story is brave in its honesty, engaging in its frank look at her life, and clever in the way it weaves in historic events of the 20th century. Each of her homes has a connection to societal changes (the awakening of feminism, the free-love era of the 1960s) or a tie to history, such as the outing at her Florida home, when everyone looked up to see the space shuttle explode. Emilie’s search for happiness and security she once felt in her “house of sunshine” captures your emotions. You’ll root for Emilie the child, cheer for Emilie, the woman and when you reach the last page, you’ll wish for… [detailed...]

Shadows of Time

2007 y.
Publisher: —
Description: `Ads are the cave art of the twentieth century.` Marshall McLuhan made many such comments regarding the nature and social relevance of advertising. In Shadows of Time, Nathan Troi Anderson juxtaposes incredibly nuanced photographic images of ancient art from the southwestern United States and Asia, against recognizable contemporary advertising that demonstrates that Mcluhan`s words were more than just ideas, they were reality. Shadows of Time explores the interplay between the advertised promise of a technological utopian future and ancient petroglyphs, ruins and rock formations that represent humanity`s early efforts to externalize interior thoughts. Accompanied by an informative essay by W. Terrence Gordon, McLuhan`s official biographer, that responds directly to Anderson`s photographs, Shadows of Time is more than an homage to Marshall McLuhan -- it reveals the beginning of humanity`s design tendencies, shows how we have changed and indicates where the future leads.` [detailed...]

Shadows of War: A German Soldier`s Lost Photographs of World War II

Publisher: Harry N. Abrams
Description: Shadows of War presents an astonishing collection of previously unpublished, unknown photographs of life at the front lines in the German war machine during World War II, taken by a common foot soldier. The work of a gifted amateur, Willi Rose`s images present a powerful vision of a largely suppressed aspect of the war. These fractured glimpses of the world at war-from quotidian tasks and moments of leisure to scenes of death and destruction-reveal one man`s experience of the epic flow of history. A miller in the years before World War II, Rose was drafted into the German army in October 1939 and served as a motorbike messenger on the front, first in France and then in Russia. He was wounded twice and was later captured by the Polish army, eventually returning home in June 1946. Throughout his military service, Rose sent home photographs that he took of the action, mostly along the Eastern Front. Discovered by his widow after his death, these images form a unique… [detailed...]

Shadows, Specters, Shards : Making History in Avant-Garde Film

Description: Book Description Avant-garde films are often dismissed as obscure or disconnected from the realities of social and political history. Jeffrey Skoller challenges this myth, arguing that avant-garde films more accurately display the complex interplay between past events and our experience of the present than conventional documentaries and historical films. Shadows, Specters, Shards examines a group of experimental films, including work by Eleanor Antin, Ernie Gehr, and Jean-Luc Godard, that take up historical events such as the Holocaust, Latin American independence struggles, and urban politics. Identifying a cinema of evocation rather than representation, these films call attention to the unrepresentable aspects of history that profoundly impact theexperience of everyday life. Making use of the critical theories of Walter Benjamin and Gilles Deleuze, among others, Skoller analyzes various narrative strategies - allegory, sideshadowing, testimony, and multiple temporalities -… [detailed...]

Publisher: —
Description: This is the first major monograph of one of today`s most popular and widely regarded artists, Josh Agle more commonly known as Shag. His trademark style is spotted on everything from cocktail napkins and cigarette lighters to his brand identity work for the new Pink Panther film. But Shag is the first opportunity to appreciate the mastery of expression in this artist`s primary output his paintings. Gathered together here are nearly 200 wry and colorful scenes of signature retro decadence. Wasp-waisted women in Capri pants and turtlenecked, eye-patched men of mystery host parties where deathly specters cavort with cranky wolves, regal bulls, and blas Adams and Eves sipping martinis. A Shag painting often takes place in the middle of a story whose conclusion could be hilarious, catastrophic, or both, creating a world of endless hinted narratives. Lowbrow gallerist Billy Shire and art critic Colin Berry offer keen essays that situate Shag in the artistic and cultural setting that… [detailed...]

Shahnama: The Visual Language of the Persian Book of Kings (Visual Arts Research Institute Edinburgh)

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionShahnama: The Visual Language of the Persian Book of Kings presents the first comprehensive examination of the interplay between text and image in the celebrated Persian national epic, the Shahnama, written by the poet Firdausi of Tus. The Shahnama is one of the longest poems ever composed and recounts the history of Iran from the dawn of time to the Muslim Arab conquests of the seventh century AD. There is no Persian text, in prose or poetry, which has been so frequently and lavishly illustrated. Offering fresh insights through a range of varied art-historical approaches to the Shahnama, the essays in this volume reveal how the subtle alterations in text and image serve to document changes in taste and style and can be understood as reflections of the changing role of the national epic in the imagination of Iranians and the equally changing messages ? often political in nature ? which the familiar stories were made to convey over the centuries.
