Book Description
Brilliant, life-changing, beautiful, Living Artfully will instruct and inspire readers to liberate their creativity and transform their daily existence into the life of their dreams. To Magsamen, art is communication; and Living Artfully is connecting with each other in creative ways, through everyday things and moments. In this new book she explains how, where, and when readers can use their own creative language - the images, words, sounds, foods, or crafts through which they most easily express themselves - to connect more deeply and joyfully with the important people in their lives. With original art throughout, it also reveals Magsamen's own dynamic process of creativity. With inspiring stories of caring gestures, simple gifts, and unexpected efforts that make a difference, Living Artfully initially invites and encourages readers to begin a personal renaissance. Then, it presents a wealth of ideas that will jumpstart every imagination and unleash long-dormant - or even undiscovered - talents. Not a how-to book but a why-to - uplifting, motivational, and fun - Living Artfully is also the guide into a new cultural movement in which people live with a creative purpose - celebrating the people and moments that make life meaningful.

Book Description
Many people today are looking outside themselves for well-being and happiness when what they're searching for has been inside them all along." -- Sandra Magsamen Living artfully is expressing who you are through the moments that you create. Living Artfully reminds us to explore and experience life with more heart, meaning, purpose, and joy. It asks us to imagine, to dream big, to believe in ourselves, to celebrate the people in our lives, make each day count, dance when the spirit moves us, laugh out loud, and let our voices be heard.

To Sandra Magsamen, Living Artfully is connection. It's the ultimate form of communication. It's recognizing and embracing your own powerful, creative abilities. And the first step on the journey to Living Artfully is to rediscover the gifts of imagination, curiosity, and playfulness -- gifts that you already possess. Each chapter presents a wealth of practical and fun ideas that you can tailor to suit your own circumstances and preferences and that will jump-start your imagination and free dormant or forgotten talents. By giving yourself permission to be yourself, you'll embark on a personal renaissance, connecting with your inherent sense of fun and optimism and discovering that even simple tasks of everyday life can become perfect, natural outlets for your newfound creativity.

Artists Living with Art
Author: Stacey Goergen
Publisher: Harry N. Abrams
ISBN: 9781419717826
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
"Artists living with art" is full of fascinating and often surprising revelations about the artworks a select group of the world's most influential contemporary artists choose to collect and display in the intimacy of their own homes. (Just as Andy Warhol famously collected cookie jars, so do these 25 artists, all living in New York, collect art and in some cases, mundane objects they cherish as art.) The works they display reflect remarkably diverse, eclectic and often unexpected tastes. Many of these homes, some of which also function as studios, have never been seen and offer unique insight into each artists' personal life, creative process, and artistic practices, as well as what inspires them and who their friends are (many swap art with one another). Readers will learn about the pieces most treasured by each artist, as well as their favourite period in art (a surprising number have a preference for pre-twentieth-century art). Authors Stacey Goergen and Amanda Benchley gained unprecedented access into each home for the photography and interviews, and highly acclaimed photographer Oberto Gili was commissioned to shoot the these homes especially for the book.

The Art of Living
Author: John Sellars
Publisher: A&C Black
ISBN: 1472521110
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 241
Book Description
Ancient philosophy was conceived as a way of life or an art of living, but if ancient philosophers did think that philosophy should transform an individual's way of life, then what conception of philosophy stands behind this claim? John Sellars explores this question through a detailed account of ancient Stoic ideas about the nature and function of philosophy. He considers the Socratic background to Stoic thinking about philosophy and Sceptical objections raised by Sextus Empiricus, and offers readings of late Stoic texts by Epictetus and Marcus Aurelius. Sellars argues that the conception of philosophy as an 'art of living', inaugurated by Socrates and developed by the Stoics, has persisted since antiquity and remains a living alternative to modern attempts to assimilate philosophy to the natural sciences. It also enables us to rethink the relationship between an individual's philosophy and their biography. The book appears here in paperback for the first time with a new Preface by the author.
