Publisher: —
Description: Book Description The yardstick by which we evaluate our culture should be based on our own experience. And what could be a richer cultural resource from which to derive meaning than the socialist visual experience…. --Wang Guangyi This retrospective look at the 17-year oeuvre of one of the giants of Chinese contemporary art forms a rich tapestry of imagery, ideas, and ideology. From the mid-80s onward, Wang Guangyi has stood as a primary role model for his fellow artists, beginning with his parodies of masterpieces from the history of Western art, including Leonardo da Vinci`s Virgin and Child with St. Anne and Jacques-Louis David`s Marat . His large-scale Mao paintings mocked propaganda imagery, and from there he moved onto Great Criticism , his internationally recognizable Pop reworking of cultural revolution sloganism. Essays by Karen Smith and Yan Shanchen. Interview by Charles Merewether. Paperback, 9.75 x 11 in. / 204 pgs / 80 color and… [detailed...]

Neepa Majumdar
Wanted Cultured Ladies Only!: Female Stardom and Cinema in India, 1930s-1950s

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Wanted Cultured Ladies Only! maps out the early culture of cinema stardom in India from its emergence in the silent era to the decade after Indian independence in the mid-twentieth century. Neepa Majumdar combines readings of specific films and stars with an analysis of the historical and cultural configurations that gave rise to distinctly Indian notions of celebrity. She argues that discussions of early cinematic stardom in India must be placed in the context of the general legitimizing discourse of colonial `improvement` that marked other civic and cultural spheres as well, and that `vernacular modernist` anxieties over the New Woman had limited resonance here. Rather, it was through emphatically nationalist discourses that Indian cinema found its model for modern female identities. Considering questions of spectatorship, gossip, popularity, and the dominance of a star-based production system, Majumdar details the rise of film stars such as Sulochana, Fearless Nadia, Lata… [detailed...]

War Movies : Journeys to Vietnam: Scenes and Out-takes

Description: Book Description `Karlin is one of the most gifted, passionate and powerful writers of his generation.`-George Garrett Wayne Karlin`s memoir War Movies recounts his return to Vietnam as scriptwriter and actor in the award-winning Vietnamese film Song of the Stork . On his journey, Karlin lives in two worlds-the world of postwar Vietnam and the world of film. Past and present, illusion and reality, humor and sorrow blend as he works on the film and converses with his former enemies. Particularly powerful are the contrasts between the young and old generations of Vietnamese and the meditative quality of the narrative as Karlin explores the ironies involved in bridging the gap between past and present. For example, we hear the story ofthe coward who became the national poster boy for patriotism because he is photogenic, and we chuckle when the only extras the director can find to play the American GIs are Russian students. What is reality? What is fiction? What are… [detailed...]

Publisher: Random House Trade Paperbacks
Description: “This book is about our experiences as women reporters covering the Vietnam War from 1966 until the fall of Saigon, in 1975. Each of us has written a chapter about what we saw and felt in Indochina—our adventures, fears, excitement, and the difficulties and loneliness. “Vietnam was a unique war for all journalists, because there was no censorship. The U.S. military provided extraordinary access to combat operations. We could fly on bombing missions, parachute into hostile territory with an airborne unit, spend a week with the Special Forces in the jungle, hitch a ride on a chopper and land amid rocket and artillery as a battle raged, or be taken prisoner like a soldier. This access gave women reporters a chance to show that they could cover combat bravely and honorably, holding their own even under the most frightening and stressful circumstances. “Some of us went on to cover other wars, but there was never any other quite like Vietnam. We are writing about Vietnam now… [detailed...]
