Book Description
Was macht aus einem beliebigen Raum einen Platz? Was schreibt ihm Geschichte ein oder verleiht ihm Bedeutung? Diese Fragen beschäftigen die Installationskünstlerin Sondra Perry in ihrer aktuellen Arbeit A Terrible Thing für das Museum of Contemporary Art in Cleveland. An der Euclid Street, im Herzen Clevelands gelegen, betreibt Perry mit den Mitteln von Video, online gefundenen Bildern und digitalen Repräsentationsmöglichkeiten eine archäologische Studie, die der Geschichte dieser Straße nachspürt. Die Infrastruktur und ihr Wandel, die architektonische Konstruktion und ihre alltägliche Nutzung, der fertige Komplex und die Arbeit zu seiner Errichtung werden aufeinander bezogen, um Fragen der Identität – einer Stadt, einer Gesellschaft und der Individuen – zu verhandeln. Diese Arbeit wurde zu einem Prisma aus Zeiten und Perspektiven, die nun auch im Buch nachvollzogen werden können.

Book Description
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Asexuality is not a complex, a sickness, or a behavior. It is not the result of a decision, and it is not a chastity vow. We are not automatically religious. We are not anti-straight, anti-gay, or anti-any-sexual-orientation. #2 Asexual people do not all look down on sex or people who have sex. We do not avoid romantic or emotionally close relationships, and we are not automatically socially inept. We are not defined by atypical biology or nonfunctional genitals. #3 Asexuality is a rare orientation, and it’s important for people to understand it. Don’t assume we need therapy or treat us like we need to be cured or broken. #4 Asexuality is when a person is not sexually attracted to others, and it is a sexual orientation. It is not the same as not having a sexual orientation yet, which is what some non-asexual people think.

Book Description
Dead End in Norvelt is the winner of the 2012 Newbery Medal for the year's best contribution to children's literature and the Scott O'Dell Award for Historical Fiction! Melding the entirely true and the wildly fictional, Dead End in Norvelt is a novel about an incredible two months for a kid named Jack Gantos, whose plans for vacation excitement are shot down when he is "grounded for life" by his feuding parents, and whose nose spews bad blood at every little shock he gets. But plenty of excitement (and shocks) are coming Jack's way once his mom loans him out to help a fiesty old neighbor with a most unusual chore—typewriting obituaries filled with stories about the people who founded his utopian town. As one obituary leads to another, Jack is launced on a strange adventure involving molten wax, Eleanor Roosevelt, twisted promises, a homemade airplane, Girl Scout cookies, a man on a trike, a dancing plague, voices from the past, Hells Angels . . . and possibly murder. Endlessly surprising, this sly, sharp-edged narrative is the author at his very best, making readers laugh out loud at the most unexpected things in a dead-funny depiction of growing up in a slightly off-kilter place where the past is present, the present is confusing, and the future is completely up in the air.

In her remarkable book, Sondra Horton Fraleigh examines and describes dance through her consciousness of dance as an art, through the experience of dancing, and through the existential and phenomenological literature on the lived body. She describes, with performance photographs, specific imagery in dance masterworks by Doris Humphrey, Anna Sokolow, Viola Farber, Nina Weiner, and Garth Fagan.
