Beattie and Davidson

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Rinder, Lawrence / Humphrey, David, PUBLISHER: Smart Art Press, Text by lawrence Rinder and David Humphrey. This collaborative duo have been creating paintings and collages together since , and their works display an improvisational abandon -- each inspiring the other to new heights. Moving from the representational to the abstract to the cartoon-like, Beattie and Davidson's tandem approach blurs all sense of traditional authorship, and locates its aesthetic instead in their impulsively crafted partnership.

Big Bill of Chicago

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Wendt, Lloyd / Kogan, Herman / Kogan, Rick, PUBLISHER: Northwestern University Press, To some he was a humanitarian and builder. Others scorned him as a fake and friend of gangsters with "the carcass of a rhinoceros and the brain of a baboon." This rollicking history traces the rise of William Hale "Big Bill" Thompson, Chicago's famous reform mayor, from his upper class roots to his years as a teenaged cowboy, from his fame as a star athlete to the years as a master politician in a world where the ward boss ruled and whiskey for the voters cost a quarter a shot. Big Bill of Chicago profiles the whole brawling arena of city politics from the turn of the century to the Prohibition Era. It is a primer in the way American politics worked-and works-and a map along the countless winding ways even the dirtiest deal can lead to something great.

Videotexts

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Gale, Peggy, PUBLISHER: Wilfrid Laurier University Press, When the video camera first appeared on the market, artists hailed the newly available equipment as the new pencil, the better canvas, the best eye of all. The medium was exciting and revolutionary: low-cost and low-tech; "everybody" was curious as galleries and museums hastened to program new video works in festivals and exhibitions. However, little aesthetic or critical material was available on either artists or issues: it was generally assumed that artists' video was just some kind of wannabe television -- its concerns and achievements, and its relationship to the visual arts generally were too often undervalued. But video artists continued to explore and advance in the medium and works produced in the seventies are strikingly different from those of today. "Videotexts" is an invaluable collection of essays -- a comprehensive guide to Canadian video artists and their works. The essays focus on important individual tapes and artists and on the development of narrative forms: to construct meaning and confirm memory. Revised and updated, they offer a "present-tense" assessment of key works from the last twenty-five years, and of artists' ideas and processes as they were unfolding. Everyone interested in video and contemporary art and culture will want to read them.

Selected Tales

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Grimm, Jacob Ludwig Carl / Grimm, Wilhelm / Crick, Joyce, PUBLISHER: Oxford University Press, The tales gathered by the Grimm brothers are at once familiar, fantastic, and frightening. They seem to belong to no time, or to some distant feudal age of fairytale imagining. Grand palaces, humble cottages, and the forest full of menace are their settings; and they are peopled by kings and princesses, witches and robbers, millers and golden birds, stepmothers and talking frogs. Regarded from their inception either as simple nursery stories or as raw material for the folklorist, the tales were in fact compositions, collected from literate tellers and shaped into a distinctive kind of literature. This new translation mirrors the apparent artlessness of the Grimms, and fully represents the range of less well-known fables, morality tales, and comic stories as well as the classic tales. It takes the stories back to their roots in German Romanticism and includes variant stories and tales that were deemed unsuitable for children. In her fascinating Introduction, Joyce Crick explores their origins, and their literary evolution at the hands of the Grimms.

Sward's life's work has been, and continues to be, poetry, and fifty years after his first publication, this is harvest time. From the thousand or so poems he has written since he began writing in the U.S. Navy during the Korean War, these are the ones he has chosen to preserve. The collection also includes new poems that rounds off a sequence of poems for his father, "Rosicrucian in the Basement." Of Collected Poems, , Bruce Meyer writes, "Robert is the very essence of surprise and delight in poetry. He is a compassionate storyteller who looks at life through the sincerity and profundity of genuine wit, always rising above the ordinary, the mundane and the despairing. It is a joy to walk in the world of Sward's perceptions and to discover the wonder that inspires each poem."

The Collected Poetry of Paul Laurence Dunbar Collected

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Dunbar, Paul Laurence / Braxton, Joanne M., PUBLISHER: University of Virginia Press, This new "most complete" edition of the collected poems of Paul Laurence Dunbar, the virtual father of black American poetry, includes sixty poems not included in the previous -- and now out of print -- Complete Poems. Sixteen of these were found in manuscript form. Paul Laurence Dunbar's work achieved wide recognition in the first part of the twentieth century. The author of six volumes of poetry, as well as novels, librettos, songs, and essays, he was nationally known and accepted by black and white readers alike. As Joanne M. Braxton points out in her substantive introduction to this edition, a reconsideration of Dunbar's work and influence is long overdue: "We reclaim, in Paul Laurence Dunbar, a significant American author whose career transcends race and locality even while he makes use of racialized and regional cultural materials to create an African-American aesthetic and a unique black poetic diction."
