Book SynopsisPsychologist Ellen Winner studies the creative, nonliteral discourse of children's spontaneous speech, examining how their abilities to use and interpret figurative language change as they grow older, and what such language shows us about the changing feature's of children's minds.Trade Review[T]here has not been such a book in years…[and] this book is extremely good. I would not be surprised if it became the standard text for courses on the psychology of art… Winner takes widely scattered studies and weaves them together very nicely, always keeping the theoretical issues clear. * Contemporary Psychology *Knowledgeable, useful, and up-to-date… This is the most refreshingly readable book in psychology I have come across in a very long time. * Journal of Aesthetics and Art Criticism *Ellen Winner draws together a vast array of research on creativity… The interested reader will find here an encyclopedia of issues in the field and an analysis of what is still unknown. * Psychology Today *Ellen Winner’s handsomely printed Invented Worlds does us all a tremendous favor by combining the two hitherto separate fields of the psychology and the developmental psychology of the arts in a general descriptive accounting. * Studies in Visual Communication *An excellent introduction to what psychologists have to say about ‘the puzzle of art,’ including studies which view the problem ‘from above’ as well as ‘from below.’ The reader may pick and choose as his own personal preferences dictate. Since Fechner began the experimental study of aesthetics, a great deal has happened, and Ellen Winner is a safe guide to the large literature that has grown up since. There has not been a book summarizing all this work for many years, and the author is to be congratulated on having so successfully coped with a daunting task. -- H. J. EysenckA balanced and lucid presentation of current theories and findings in the field of art and psychology. The book provides a coherent framework for the examination of central issues in the psychology of art and in addition to offering an ‘overview,’ it also successfully formulates problems that are amenable to empirical investigation… Its clear presentation will make it a favorite for the student of psychology and the arts. -- Claire GolombThis is the book to read for a provocative and comprehensive survey of the psychology of the arts. The division of Winner’s theoretical sympathies, between Gestalt and constructivist viewpoints, males for an interesting tension and a questioning spirit throughout. -- Howard E.

Harvard University Press Mimesis as MakeBelieve On the Foundations of the
Book SynopsisRepresentation—in visual arts and fiction—play an important part in our lives and culture. Walton presents a theory of representation which illuminates its many varieties and goes a long way toward explaining its importance. Walton’s theory also provides solutions to thorny philosophical problems concerning the existence of fictitious beings.Trade ReviewRigor, ingenuity and arresting subtlety are evident in the detailed working out of Walton’s ideas. -- Sebastian Gardner * Times Literary Supplement *This is philosophy at its best; combining the breadth of concern of the best continental philosophy (but shorn of its often wilful cloudiness) and the precision of the best analytical philosophy… A work of very great importance that will set the agenda for discussions in aesthetics for a long time to come. * Philosophy *Walton’s aim…is to explore and explain the foundations of the representational arts. His theory is one that he has stated and restated with increasing detail and sophistication over the last seventeen years, and in this book it bears all the refinement and subtlety of argument that analytic philosophy can muster. This is an engaging, insightful, and persuasive volume. * Philosophy and Literature *Kendall Walton’s book is one of the few genuinely distinguished contributions to aesthetic theory published in the last decade or two. It will be essential reading for anyone in the field and contains much that will be of great interest to scholars and critics of the arts. -- Marshall Cohen, University of Southern CaliforniaTable of ContentsAcknowledgments Introduction PART 1: REPRESENTATIONS 1.

British Museum Press Treasures of the British Museum
Book SynopsisThe BM is the greatest treasure house in the world and it could fill many books with pretty pictures ... but this is more than that. A choice selection of topics, some well known and obvious (Sutton Hoo, the Royal Cemeteries at Ur, the Elgin Marbles), others less obvious (the Folkton Drums, the Lothar Crystal), fifty in all, serve as the basis for description and discussion of both objects and collectors and the way in which the BM has acquired them. This unusual and interesting approach makes for a magnificent book: superb pictures, highly readable descriptions and lots of human interest anecdotes. The 2009 edition is significantly expanded with twelve new objects discussed, representing a refocusing away from Europe and the Near East and also showcasing artefacts, such as the Ringlemere Cup, acquired over the last few decades. `About as good as a book of this sort can be. A magnificent present ... if you can bear to part with it.''Table of Contents1. Forward, Introduction; 2. Treasure; 3. Civilisations rediscovered; 4. Sculpture; 5. Aspects of the Divine; 6.

Book SynopsisA celebration of evolving taste, told through the stories behind 250 objects sold by the world’s largest auction houseTrade ReviewAs featured in Departures and Elliman Magazine"Lots to be proud of... The most extraordinary artworks and outstanding objects ever sold at Christie's." —Christie's Magazine"Bold enterprise: a new book on the 250 year history of Christie's published by Phaidon." —Antique Trade Gazette online"Recounts discoveries such as a 3,000-year-old Assyrian frieze that sold for £7 million, having been found in the tuck shop of a Dorset school; record-breaking prices [...] and oddities that have crossed Christie's block, including a wooly-mammoth skeleton and James Bond author Ian Fleming's gold typewriter." —Vanity Fair (On Art)"Wonderful... A great book to dip into time and time again as there is much to learn and enjoy from it." —Tim Forrest's E & A"Christie's has seen many a remarkable artefact pass through its halls... Going Once [...] will reveal record-breaking sales [...], celebrity possessions and rare treasures uncovered in the most unlikely of situations." —Kensington & Chelsea Magazine"'Christie's are a measure of what men and women have coveted in different periods. Not, be it said, the physical necessities of life - food, drink, raiment and so on - but metaphysical necessities.' So said Herbert Furst of the London auctioneers. Presented are 250 landmark sales of these 'metaphysical necessities'." —Crafts"A history of taste and collecting through the lens of 250 iconic sales drawn from the auction house's proud past." —Apollo"For every object, there is an accompanying story told with wit charm and verve. To read this book is to receive a private lesson from Christie's experts on some of the very best lots seen at auction." —House & Garden"What links Captain Cook's logbook, Nureyev's slippers and a 1960 Routemaster bus? They're three of the wallet-shrinking lots featured in Going Once... The 250 lots highlighted here are notable for three reasons: as record-breakers [...] as curiosities, and as accidental discoveries, such as the Assyrian bas-relief found behind a school's dartboard." —World of Interiors"A fascinating read." —The Lady"[D]elightfully entertaining... A fascinating excursion through changing tastes as demonstrated by an absorbing collection of 250 artifacts and their idionsyncracies, backstories, and, frequently, notoriety." —Elliman magazine"Equal parts immersive tome and beautiful objet d'art, mixing quality storytelling with high, tactile design... More than a receipt of what's been bought and sold (and resold), the book is a cultural history of our ever-evolving tastes." —Departures Online"A stimulating guide to changing taste." —Country Life"When were you last at Christie's? You can stay at home and look at 250 objects. If you had the money, what would you buy?... The choice could not be more eclectic and the back stories are interesting." —MatureTimes.co.uk

Phaidon Press Ltd Lucian Freud
Book SynopsisA breathtaking visual biography of Freud, told through his own words, unpublished private photographs, and painted portraitsTrade Review'A new book, Lucian Freud: A Life, presents his biography in pictures. It chronicles an extraordinary life from first to last: from Freud as an eight-year-old in 1930, a snapshot from Weimar-era Berlin, to the 88-year-old in London in 2011, the year of his death, laid out on his sofa like an El Greco saint... As Holborn puts it, "It is all about looking: us looking at him who in turn is looking out at the world with that penetrating stare. He was oblivious to anything else. Which is why it's a heroic life.' - The Financial Times 'Thought provoking and engrossing, this lavishly illustrated book is a must for Freud's fans.' - Publishers Weekly Online 'An excellent new addition to your coffee table.' - ES magazine 'An impressive selection.' - Forbes Online 'Taking its cue from previously unseen family snapshots, Lucian Freud: A Life illustrates the artists's biography with private photographs, and intimate portraits by his peers.' - Vogue 'A new visual biography charts the famous Freud gaze... Overwhelmingly photographic.' - RA Magazine 'A sumptuous visual memoir... The smell of oil paint and charcoal dust floats off the pages.' - The Herald 'Despite a strong aversion to paparazzi... [Lucian Freud] was shot by more great photographers than perhaps anyone who ever lived.' - The Spectator 'When it come to Lucian Freud, the avalanche of admiring attention only seems to grow... (Lucian Freud: A Life) takes us all the way from a little boy on the beach in Germany to the near nonagenarian variously in bed with this pet whippet and none other than Kate Moss.' - Evening Standard 'A vivid pictorial companion... from childhood through to intimate shots in his studio, including Bruce Bernard's extraordinary images of the artist painting and posing alongside Leigh Bowery... The abundance of documentation provided by these books [...] contributes to the most detailed picture yet on the artist and his work.' - The Burlington Magazine

It overflows with abstract painting and political printmaking, feminist performance and on-the-street photography, and for each South Korean artist you know (like the video art pioneer Nam June Paik) there are a dozen to discover." —The New York Times "From Lee Bul to Name June Paik, Do Ho Suh and Park Seo-Bo, the roots of Korea's thriving contemporary art scene are deeply embedded within the country's complex historical narratives. A new book by Phaidon chronicles these developments, largely omitted from western art history, combining contributions from leading Korean scholars alongside works that reflect the country's tumultuous recent history."—HERO magazine "Global scholars and art specialists amass the first comprehensive look at North and South Korean art after the Korean War."—The New York Times Book Review "Thoroughly tracing the relations of the nation's history and culture in chronicle order, it sets a thick foundation of Korean art in the global art world."—The Seoul Review

James Clarke & Co Ltd The History of Morris Dancing 14581750
Book SynopsisMorris dancing, one of the more peculiar of the English folk customs, has been greatly misunderstood. In The History of Morris Dancing, 1458-1750 John Forrest analyses a wealth of evidence to show that Morris dancing does not, as is often assumed, have pagan or ancient origins. He examines early documentation to draw Morris traditions into the wide area of communal custom and public celebrations, showing the passage of dance ideas between groups previously considered folklorically distinct.Careful, detailed and encyclopaedic, The History of Morris Dancing, 1458-1750, is an essential reference work for specialists in English drama and social historians of the period, as well as offering fascinating insight for those who enjoy Morris dancing.

St Louis Art Museum,U.S. Monets Water Lilies
Book SynopsisClaude Monet was undoubtedly the most important of all the Impressionist painters and his water lily paintings represent the culminating moment in his career. Monet's famous garden at Giverny provided the inspiration for the paintings. The exhibition will bring to life the importance and beauty of this garden through a range of archival photographs, as well as an early, rarely seen film from 1915, showing Monet painting outdoors in his garden.Monet's Water Lilies will reunite the three panels of an exceptionally impressive water lily triptych, created by Monet between 1915 and 1926. The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art, the Saint Louis Art Museum, and the Cleveland Museum of Art each own one panel of the triptych and the exhibition will offer a rare opportunity to bring the works together. This will be the first time that this reunion has occurred for more than 30 years. With the single exception of a triptych in the Museum of Modern Art, this is the only triptych by Mon
