Pages : 96
Book Description
While situated in Pennsylvania in the year of 2007, I sat many of nights in the basement offi ce of my home,not intending to do this visual and yet meaningful study, but it was what I believed to have been, meant to happen....for there was time left in the day, and this made me comfortable although challenging. I have told some friends about my encounters with the other-side so it not a wonder, instead its a realization I understand about The New Testament - Book of Revelation. The Book of Revelation in this depiction is a visual interpretation as meanings came forth from my awareness of reading and studying its verses from the King James Version: Jesus Christ as he reveals Gods Plan to his people through his Servant John. I entice you to ready yourself for the unknown: as the Servant John takes you through a triumphed-victory gathering up your cross for Jesus Christ, or unless, if you are the lessen have not departed from the worldly things. The New Testament of The Book of Revelation depiction offers the reader-viewer insights of their own True Christianity or non-Christian self witnessed since the beginning of Biblical Time. Author of this work: Willie Lee Pope 2007-2011.....Whats a person thinketh is laden on the heart and will soon cometh out of the mouth.

Elias Sime
Author: Tracy L. Adler
Publisher: National Geographic Books
ISBN: 3791358812
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
A first-ever monograph featuring the work of the Ethiopian artist Elias Sime, who brilliantly explores the impact of life in a post-consumerist world. Sime's brightly-colored sculptural tableaus feature found objects including thread, buttons, electrical wires, and computer detritus. This book highlights the artist's work from the last decade, much of which comprises the series entitled "Tightrope." Repurposing salvaged electronic components, such as circuits and keyboards, Sime incorporates the refuse that are the byproducts of technological advancement, and points to the urgency of sustainability. The resulting abstractions reference landscape and the figure as well as traditional Ethiopian textiles. "Tightrope" refers to the precarious balance between the progress technology has made possible and its detrimental impact on the environment. Published with the Ruth and Elmer Wellin Museum of Art

The Implicated Subject
Author: Michael Rothberg
Publisher: Stanford University Press
ISBN: 150360960X
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 368
Book Description
“A pathbreaking meditation . . . shifts the discussion . . . from . . . notions of guilt and innocence to the complexities of responsibility and accountability.” —Amir Eshel, Stanford University When it comes to historical violence and contemporary inequality, none of us are completely innocent. We may not be direct agents of harm, but we may still contribute to, inhabit, or benefit from regimes of domination that we neither set up nor control. Arguing that the familiar categories of victim, perpetrator, and bystander do not adequately account for our connection to injustices past and present, Michael Rothberg offers a new theory of political responsibility through the figure of the implicated subject. The Implicated Subject builds on the comparative, transnational framework of Rothberg's influential work on memory to engage in reflection and analysis of cultural texts, archives, and activist movements from such contested zones as transitional South Africa, contemporary Israel/Palestine, post-Holocaust Europe, and a transatlantic realm marked by the afterlives of slavery. An array of globally prominent artists, writers, and thinkers—from William Kentridge, Hito Steyerl, and Jamaica Kincaid, to Hannah Arendt, Primo Levi, Judith Butler, and the Combahee River Collective—speak show how confronting our own implication in difficult histories can lead to new forms of internationalism and long-distance solidarity. “A significant work by a major scholar . . . .While drawing on a global range of histories and texts, the book never loses focus on the contemporary moment.” —Robert Eaglestone, Royal Holloway, University of London “Offer[s] a fresh vocabulary to confront our personal and collective responsibility in the face of massive political violence, past and present.” —Marianne Hirsch, Columbia University

Ai Weiwei
Author: Weiwei Ai
Publisher: Mildred Lane Kemper Art Museum
ISBN: 9780936316468
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Over the past two decades, the Chinese conceptual artist, activist and exile Ai Weiwei has created art that addresses complex and sensitive themes of political, ethical, and social urgency. His artworks, which call upon both Western and Chinese cultural traditions, are deeply engaged with the history of art, drawing particularly on conceptualism and minimalism. From the start of his multifaceted career in the late 1970s, Ai has envisioned artistic practice as a deeply human, moral, and political endeavour. This volume presents the artist's work in dialogue with theoretical texts by the Italian philosopher Giorgio Agamben and the German-Jewish philosopher Hannah Arendt alongside interpretive essays that illuminate the artist's work on human rights, his engagement with historical Chinese artifacts, and his critical consideration of the effects of globalisation.

The work on display in Tomas Saraceno:Cloud-Specific includes pneumatic sculptures, modular environments, drawings, and a video, all conceived as part of an ongoing exploration into an Air-Port-City / Cloud-City (2001-present) a floating city in the sky fueled by solar energy.
