Softcover. NY, Albright-Knox Gallery, 1st, 1995, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: None, Softcover, This solid, authoritative presentation of Gorky's pivotal art of the 1940s accompanies an exhibit of paintings and drawings showing this year at the National Gallery in Washington, D.C., as well as Buffalo and Fort Worth.

While not a comprehensive or groundbreaking work, this volume is an excellent summary of or introduction to Gorky for both general and informed lay readers. Clean copy.

by: Stephen H. Goddard

Softcover. Lawrence KS, Spencer Museum of Art, 1st, 2018, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: None, Softcover, 300 pages, color illustrations. This extensive exhibition catalog explores humankind's deep connections and fascination with the plant kingdom through artworks from the Spencer Museum's permanent collection, a number of significant loans, and site-specific commissions by four artists-in-residence: Ackroyd & Harvey, Sandy Winters, and Mathias Kessler. The exhibition is organized through several themes: artists' studies of plant forms; historic and contemporary plant lore; ecological sustainability and biomechanical plant hybrids; plants in a post-human world; and works dealing with scientific research on how plants sense the world and communicate. One aim of the exhibition is to cultivate viewers' empathy for plants by addressing the tendency of humans to dismiss plants as a static backdrop to their fast-paced lives. Themes in Big Botany are explored further through an exhibition catalogue published by the Museum that includes short contributions from a variety of artists, curators, poets, philosophers, ecologists, and more.

Black Womanhood: Images Icons and Ideologies of the African Body by: Thompson, Barbara (Edited by)

Black Womanhood: Images Icons and Ideologies of the African Body
by: Thompson, Barbara (Edited by)

Softcover. Hanover NH, Hood Museum of Art, Dartmouth College , 1st, 2008, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: None, Softcover, 374 pages illustrated in b&w and color. Issued in connection with an exhibition held March 8 to September 7, 2008, Hood Museum of Art, Dartmouth College. Black Womanhood examines an especially charged icon - the black female body - and contemporary artists' interventions upon historical images of black women as exotic Others, erotic fantasies, and supermaternal Mammies. This book presents icons of the black female body as seen from three separate but intersecting perspectives: the traditional African, the colonial, and the contemporary global. The display and contemplation of such iconic images addresses complex and often competing forces of self-presentation and the representation of others. Clean, like new. DOMESTIC SHIPPING ONLY.

Boris Mikhailov: The Hasselblad Award 2000by: Knape, Gunilla

Boris Mikhailov: The Hasselblad Award 2000
by: Knape, Gunilla

Hardcover. New York, Scalo Verlag , 1st, 2001, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: Very Good, 144 pages. Hardcover with dust jacket. Very clean, unmarked copy still in publishers shrink-wrap. Thisbook contains a never-before published series of work from the early 1980s: Mikhailov photographed ''The Dancers'' in his hometown in the Ukraine during a period when the former Soviet Union was a reality, before the appearance of Gorbachov and "perestroika". We observe the open-air dancing scene with great astonishment; seeing older and younger people enjoy themselves in a way that might be contradictory to the images we might have about everyday life in the old Soviet Union. These cheerful images remind us how little women and men need to have a good time. An essay by Russian art critic Boris Groys and an exhaustive interview make this volume a must have for readers and libraries interested in contemporary art and photography. 65 duotone illustrations.
