Thomas Florschuetz: Are You Talking To Me?

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionNo one has ever seen the human body quite like Thomas Florschuetz. He brings parts of the body--legs, fingers, heels, arms--into view and composes them into photos full of visual impact and confusing vagueness. His own body serves as motif. Not obviously posed or arranged, his body provides the banal photo fragments that reveal their sensual power once they?ve been turned into something artificial, unreal. Objects from daily life, too, are presented by Florschuetz in such a way that they transcend their normal function. He photographs portions of plants or buildings, windows and curtains, enlarges them into oversized photos with a three-dimensional quality and mounts them on triptychs or hangs them in other groups. Handled in this way, the subjects of his photographs attain an aura of mystery, detached from the world. This book is the first comprehensive presentation of work done by the artist, who remains the focus of frequent debate. Essays by Christoph… [detailed...]

Thomas Gainsborough (British Artists)

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book Description Thomas Gainsborough (1727-1788), admired for his grand society portraits and sumptuous pastoral landscapes, is the most perennially popular of British artists. In his life as in his art, Gainsborough sought to project an image of effortless accomplishment, demonstrated by a dazzling painting technique and immense personal charm. He was also competitive, opinionated, and financially astute. Because he was among the most innovative and enigmatic artists of his age, the true nature of hisachievement is at once greatly appreciated and insufficiently understood. This illustrated introduction to the artist and his work traces Gainsborough`s career from his boyhood in rural Suffolk to the pinnacle of commercial success at the court of George III. Martin Postle examines the tremendous impact on Gainsborough`s career of the Royal Academy and the Court of St. James. Postle also reassesses the artist`s attitudes toward the central aspects of his art: portraiture (which… [detailed...]

Thomas Hardy (Authors in Context) (Oxford World`s Classics)

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Part of the new OWC series, Authors in Context, Thomas Hardy is a critical companion to the OWC Hardy editions. It examines Hardy`s novels and puts them in their author`s social, cultural, and political contexts. Thomas Hardy was born before the invention of the car, the telephone, and the airplane, when no woman could vote, when there were different rules for men and women wanting to divorce, and education was the preserve of the upper classes. He lived to see the Zeppelins over London, new divorce laws, wider educational opportunities, votes for women, and the questioning of religion. In novels such as Tess of the d`Urbervilles and Jude the Obscure Hardy engaged directly with the issues of the day, and his fiction resonates with contemporary concerns. This book explores the interconnections between life and art, and shows how modern interpretations in film and television create new contexts in which to read the works afresh. [detailed...]

Thomas Hirschhorn (Contemporary Artists)

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: The work of Thomas Hirshhorn (b. Bern, Switzerland, 1957), recently on view at such major international art venues as the Tate Modern (2003), Centre Georges Pompidou (Paris, 2001), and the Art Institute of Chicago (2000), are giant, labour-intensive, room-sized collages of low grade materials, that is to say, rubbish. Part-text, part-sculpture, part-junkheap, incorporating furniture, cardboard boxes, wooden frames and more, these baroque installations reflect an extraordinarily prolific imagination. Their sheer volume and the time it takes to read and see these massive, detailed installations make them unforgettable, often quite humorous experiences unlike the work of any other contemporary artist.

Thomas Jefferson (The American Statesmen Series)

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionOriginally published in 1898, Thomas Jefferson is a classic biography of the man who so deeply ingrained the republican ideals of the Founding Fathers into American society. As such, it is the kind of work that avoids the trap of noticingeverything that went unnoticed in the past while failing to notice all that the past deemed notable. Immediately lauded by the critics when it was first published, John T. Morse?s biography of Jefferson was embraced by the reading public. Today, itsrepublication is an welcome opportunity to remind leaders today of the great story of liberty that enabled the young American nation to become an undisputed world power and a beacon of freedom to oppressed peoples everywhere. Thomas Jefferson was a brilliant and complex man who was practically born into America?s ruling elite. He served in the Virginia House of Burgesses, in the Continental Congress, as ambassador to the French court, as governor of Virginia, as secretary of… [detailed...]

Thomas Jefferson on Leadership: Executive Lessons From his Life and Letters

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Best-selling author Coy Barefoot takes readers on an unforgettable journey through the life and letters of Thomas Jefferson in search of timeless principles of leadership. In Jefferson`s view, leadership-personal, civic, and political- is the key ingredient to making a free society work. Barefoot demonstrates that there is much we can learn from Jefferson`s successes as well as his failures. `Circumstances of history,` Barefoot writes, `present every generation with new challenges that demand a reinvigorated commitment to the preservation of liberty and the cultivation of inspired individuals to lead the fight. Leadership is no academic exercise. Freedom is never a guarantee.` This is a powerful and timely book that encourages each one of us to answer Thomas Jefferson`s call to action: `Come forward then, and give us the aid of your talents and the weight of your character.` [detailed...]

Description: Thomas McKnight (b. 1941) is one of the most successful artists in the United States. Best known for his celestial interiors and landscapes of the world`s most beautiful places, his work has also explored an interior world he calls Arcadia-a place where ymphs linger by ancient springs, oracles speak, and angels fly. In a burst of creativity over the last decade, McKnight has developed a new style to depict these interior visions. The canvases are large, textured, and evoke the patina of ancient frescoes-nd more than 100 of these new paintings are featured in this book, along with insightful commentary by Italian art critic Francesco Colonna. Thomas McKnight`s Arcadia is a handsomely designed new monograph that will transport the reader to he paradise of the painter`s imagination. [detailed...]

Alexander Campbell Fraser
Thomas Reid

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book Description1898. This little book is an attempt to present Reid in a fresh light, and in his relations to present-day thought. It deals with the Scottish chapter in that enduring alternation between agnostic despair and endeavor after perfect insight which seems to be a law of the philosophic progress of mankind. Thomas Reid, homebred and self-contained, is the national representative, in the eighteenth century, of the via media between these extremes. In the concluding chapter I have looked at the philosophical appeal to inspired data of Common Sense, in the wider light of the theistic philosophy of the universe, and not merely as part of an inductive science of the human mind. This connects the theistic postulate of spiritual reason, as the foundation of human experience, with Reid`s appeal to the ultimate but often dormant necessities of human nature. Contents: Boyhood and Ancestry: Strachan and the Valley of the Dee, At Marischal College, New Machar and David Hume, Old… [detailed...]

Thomas Ruff: 1979 to the Present

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionAll fields of contemporary Western life are captured by the lens of Thomas Ruff`s large-format camera: petit bourgeois homes in the provinces and suburbs, modernist and current architectural structures, the startlingly alien faces of fellow human beings, the technologically sophisticated observation of outer space, studies of local neighborhoods by night, the news industry`s non-stop invention of pictures, changing views on how we feel about our bodies, and modifications in perceptions through the pictorial explosion of the Internet. Since the early 80s, Thomas Ruff has created a substantial photographic oeuvre in which he draws our attention to all of these familiar subjects, simultaneously marshalling a precise, fascinating rendition ofour perceptual universe and a conceptually matter-of-fact presentation of untold layers of meaning and photographic premises. This catalogue gathers, for the first time, all of the work he has created since 1979, placing his most… [detailed...]
