Winslow Homer was American painter, illustrator and etcher, one of the two most admired American late 19th-century artists and is considered to be the greatest pictorial poet of outdoor life in the United States and its greatest watercolorist. Nominally a landscape painter, in a sense carrying on Hudson River school attitudes, Homer was an artist of power and individuality whose images are metaphors for the relationship of Man and Nature. A careful observer of visual reality, he was at the same time alive to the purely physical properties of pigment and colour, of line and form, and of the patterns they create.

William Rimmer (18161879) is arguably the first modernist American sculptor, although his inventive originality has not been fully acknowledged. Rimmer cultivated an art of ideas and personal expression whilst supporting himself as a physician and, later, as a teacher of art anatomy at the Cooper Union School of Design for Women in New York.Unlike his contemporaries, he advocated the creation of sculpture drawn entirely from the artists imagination, as opposed to antique archetypes or live models. In this way, he sought to reframe excellence in American art as something that must be found within, rather than derived from Europe.In this new monograph, the meaning of Rimmers works is for the first time considered from a combination of perspectives, such as close visual analysis (including X-ray and infrared), historical documentation, and social context. These are enriched with discussion of the artists own bipolar disorder, deeply-held spiritualism, and views on gender equalityconsidering women just as talented as men, he used naked male models in all-female classes long before his contemporaries, and produced an allegorical sculpture of fighting lions that criticized the tyranny of men over women.This book will be of great interest to academics, students, art museums, collectors, dealers, art historians, and members of the public with an affinity for Rimmers work. It will also appeal to those with a broader interest in American culture.

Chase worked in all media but was excellent in pastel drawing. He as well created a lot of watercolor paintings and etchings. Highly proficient in pastel as well as oils, Chase organized with Robert Frederick Blum the American Society of Painters in Pastel, and is viewed as one of the most accomplished artists in this medium. Chase was a member of the Ten (Ten American Painters), but also devoted much of his time to teaching, first at his New York studio, than at the Students League. He also taught at his summer home in Shinnecock, Long Island, at the Chase School (which he founded), and later at the New York School of Art and the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts. His students included Marsden Hartley, Charles Demuth , Edward Hopper , Georgia OKeeffe , and Charles Sheeler.

William Adolphe Bouguereau was a follower of classical art and had no wish for everything like novelty or the avant-garde. William-Adolphe Bouguereau used ancient themes, making new readings of classical myths. He settled his abundant fantasy space with a romanticized selection of angels, women and children. His views angered many critics who called him "a master in the hierarchy of mediocrity" but he is undoubtedly a key figure in 19th century French art. His sense of idealism was his ruling rule, regarding the ugly as worthless for depiction. Throughout his life, Bouguereau created 822 known finished paintings, although the location of many of them is still unidentified.

William Blake was English artist, draughtsman, engraver, philosopher, and poet, one of the most remarkable figures of the Romantic period. In art as in life Blake was an individualist who made a principle of nonconformity. He had a prejudice against painting in oils on canvas and experimented with a variety of techniques in colour printing, illustration, and tempera. His work as an artist is almost impossible to divorce from the complex philosophy expressed also through his poetry. He believed that the visible world of the senses is an unreal envelope behind which the spiritual reality is concealed and set himself the impossible task of creating a visual symbolism for the expression of his spiritual visions. To most of his contemporaries Blake seemed merely an eccentric, and his genius was not generally recognized until the second half of the 19th century.

A dragon is a legendary creature, typically with serpentine or reptilian traits, that features in the myths of many cultures. There are two distinct cultural traditions of dragons: the European Dragon, derived from European folk traditions and ultimately related to Greek and Middle Eastern mythologies, and the Chinese Dragon, with counterparts in Japan, Korea and other East Asian countries.The two traditions may have evolved separately, but have influenced each other to a certain extent, particularly with the cross-cultural contact of recent centuries. The English word Dragon derives from Greek drakon, "dragon, serpent of huge size, water-snake"One of my ways to meditate is to draw.In this little book I offer you my meditations focused on Wild Dragons.

Many clock repairers carry out excellent work but avoid cutting their own wheels and pinions, fearing it is too complicated and involved. This book, written by an experienced clock and tool maker, dispels those fears and gives a step-by-step guide to an extremely satisfying aspect of horology. This book is written for both the amateur and professional involved in the making and restoring of clocks, and for anyone who intends to start building up a workshop and requires a guide to the equipment and how to use it.

This book of mine, "What is Art?" appears now for the first time in its true form. More than one edition has already been issued in Russia, but in each case it has been so mutilated by the "Censor," that I request all who are interested in my views on art only to judge of them by the work in its present shape. The causes which led to the publication of the bookwith my name attached to itin a mutilated form were the following: In accordance with a decision I arrived at long ago,not to submit my writings to the "Censorship" (which I consider to be an immoral and irrational institution), but to print them only in the shape in which they were written,I intended not to attempt to print this work in Russia. However, my good acquaintance, Professor Grote, editor of a Moscow psychological magazine, having heard of the contents of my work, asked me to print it in his magazine, and promised me that he would get the book through the "Censors" office unmutilated if I would but agree to a few very unimportant alterations, merely toning down certain expressions. I was weak enough to agree to this, and it has resulted in a book appearing under my name, from which not only have some essential thoughts been excluded, but into which the thoughts of other meneven thoughts utterly opposed to my own convictionshave been introduced.

Der letzte Band der Wewerreihe befasst sich mit der langen Geschichte des auf der Anhohe vor Paderborn gelegenen Gutes Warthe. Mit seiner Bedeutung als Gasthof am Alten Hellweg, der alten Heeres- und Handelsstrae, und wie es ihm gelang, diese Lage aufrecht zu erhalten, selbst anlasslich des als Wewerscher Skandal bekanntgewordenen kulturzerstorenden Straenausbaus.Im weiteren Teil geht es um die Gefahrdung der naturlichen Umgebung, den Ausverkauf der Landschaft und der Natur durch die Windindustrialisierung, aber auch um historische und aktuelle Naturbeobachtungen, auch der geheimnisvollen Nachtfalter, und um das Naturschutzgebiet Ziegenberg bei Paderborn.Der dritte Teil fasst die bisherigen Forschungen zur katholischen Pfarrkirche St. Johannes-Baptist zusammen, von ihrem mittelalterlichen Beginn uber die Rolle der adeligen Patronatsherren, dem Ende als selbststandiger Pfarrei durch Aufgehen im neuen Pfarrverbund bis zur Suche nach neuen Impulsen fur das Gemeindeleben, wie schon einmal im 19. Jhdt. Damals hatte es in der politisch schwierigen Zeit von Bismarcks Kirchenkampf unerwartete weibliche Impulse im Zusammenhang mit der Schlosskapelle gegeben.

I film western ci fanno vedere le carovane con i carri, ma non ci dicono nulla dei carri stessi, della durata del viaggio, del cibo e della vita quotidiana dei pionieri. Ci parlano del Far West, senza dirci cosa esso fosse in realta; ci fanno vedere sceriffi e saloon, senza che possiamo saperne la storia e come essi fossero per davvero; ci fanno vedere locomotive sbuffanti e battelli a vapore, ma non ci dicono nulla di essi; ci mostrano soldati a cavallo e i loro forti, ma non ci parlano della loro vita quotidiana. Vediamo gli Indiani, generalmente mostratici come cattivi, senza quasi mai dircene i motivi.Questo elenco potrebbe continuare a lungo: cowboys, tipi di case di indiani e pionieri, corse alloro, bordelli, assegnazione della terra ai pionieri Se qualcuno ha curiosita al riguardo, potra trovare delle risposte, non pedanti, in questo libro.

Goethes Roman von den Leiden des jungen Werthers war ein Groereignis der deutschen und europaischen Literaturgeschichte. Woruber diskutierte die Lesewelt 1774, wen traf der eben 25-jahrige Autor und was passierte sonst in Europa und der Welt? Davon erzahlt dieses Panorama: Tagesgenau, reich bebildert mit zeitgenossischen Portrats, erganzt durch eine Galerie wichtiger oder kurioser Bucher aller Fachgebiete, die zugleich erschienen. Der Streifzug fuhrt von Kapitan Cooks Antarktis-Fahrten uber Operntriumphe in Paris bis zu den Hochstapeleien einer falschen Zarin; man erfahrt von Turmfrisuren, Rokoko-Palasten, Sektierern und Erpressern, von fleiigen Kupferstechern und findigen Physikern, erlebt Professoren als Kurgaste und Monarchen bei der riskanten Pockenimpfung. Man hort vom ersten recycelten Papier, ja sogar einem elektrischen Telegraphen. Aber auch einige Anzeichen revolutionaren Geistes sind schon zu spuren.

"Ich wollte doch noch die Welt erobern!" Das waren so ziemlich meine ersten Gedanken, als man bei mir 1999 bei einer Untersuchung im Krankenhaus feststellte, dass ich schwer herzkrank bin. Auf den ersten Seiten des Buches fasse ich meine Krankengeschichte zusammen und schildere, wie ich die ersten 20 Jahre mit der Krankheit noch verhaltnismaig gut leben konnte. Im Verlauf der Geschichte wird jedoch deutlich, wie die Einschlage immer naherkommen. Der erste Abschnitt des Buches endet dann mit dem Moment, als sich am 4.11.2019 nach einem dramatischen Herzstillstand zu Hause plotzlich alles anderte. Ich wurde ins Krankenhaus eingeliefert und die Arzte uberlegten dort, was man mit mir machen konnte, um mir wieder ein sicheres Leben auerhalb des Krankenhauses zu gewahrleisten. Da man keine andere Moglichkeit sah, entschied man sich, mich fur eine Herztransplantation zu listen. In den ersten Tagen der Listung und des Wartens, beschloss ich meinen Tagesablauf im Krankenhaus detailliert zu dokumentieren und zu beschreiben, was mich bewegte. Warten kann sehr anstrengend und beangstigend sein. Zudem ist es interessant zu erleben, was alles wahrend der dreimonatigen Wartezeit auf solch einer Station so passiert. Leute sterben, andere Wartende werden transplantiert, weitere Patienten fliegen nach Monaten des Wartens von der Liste und mussen kurzfristig das Krankenhaus verlassen. Das sind zum Teil dramatische Zustande, vor allem, da die Psyche aller wartenden Patienten angeschlagen ist. Dann war es plotzlich soweit: Endlich das "perfekte" Angebot fur mein neues Herz. Im letzten Teil erklare ich wie es sich anfuhlt, wenn man nach der Transplantation auf der Intensivstation wach wird. Wie die Psyche und der Korper auf Grund der Medikamente und der neuen Situation verruckt spielen, wie man versucht weiterzukampfen und wie sich Psyche und Korper langsam annahern, um am Ende als ein neues starkes Ich wieder aufzustehen. Am Ende heit es dann zum Gluck "Ok, jetzt ist Zeit die Koffer zu packen, denn ich wollte doch noch die Welt erobern"

During the Soviet regime, the artist, author, and philosopher Vyacheslav Akhunov hid his notebooks in stables and barns, in murals and matchboxes. For the artist, the notebook is an autonomous artistic medium. Between 1973 and 2000, he archived more than three thousand of his ironic, visionary drawings and collages on paper for two hundred projects. In this notebook, one finds excerpts from works dated between 1974 and 1982. Leeza Ahmadys introduction to Akhunovs drawings and collages, which the artist refers to as "art-facts," interprets and reveals these as sensitive forebodings of the fall of the socialist era and as a contemporary document conceived to outlast the present. Vyacheslav Akhunov was born in 1948 in Osh, Kyrgyzstan.Leeza Ahmady is a freelance curator living in New York; she is the director of the New York Asian Contemporary Art Week and Agent of dOCUMENTA (13).Language: German/English
