Taylor & Francis Ltd Bushwicks Bohemia
Book SynopsisViewed as a symbol of urban blight and decline in the late 1970s and 1980s, Bushwick today is bustling and bursting with color, creativity, and commerce. Cozy and cool cafes, small boutiques, trendy restaurants, vibrant street murals, and art galleries now adorn the neighborhood in the northern part of Brooklyn, stoking its growing reputation as one of the more desirable places to live, work in, and visit.In this book, Mario Hernandez paints a precise picture that portrays the redevelopment, evolution, and ensuing gentrification of the Brooklyn neighborhood over recent decades. Drawing on interviews, developer reports, and historical and civic records, the author focuses closely on the artists and creative industries that moved to Bushwick and, over time, shaped the Bohemian art scene in the neighborhood and contributed to the growth of its vibrant urban economy. The book connects the emergence and ongoing development of the neighborhoodâs art scene to neoliberal policies and city planning efforts that have also facilitated and led to the increasing displacement of long-time Black and Latinx residents. It also documents community efforts to counteract forces of displacement and development, revealing the complex, competing, and collective efforts to shape Bushwick and its future.Culture and capital collide, converge, and contribute to rapid and radical change in Bushwickâs bohemia, making this an important read for those interested in urban life, gentrification, and social issues.Table of ContentsIntroduction 1. Bohemia and the Cultural Economy of Cities 2. Planned Destruction, Blackout, and Re-Emergence 3. Revanchism and the Newest, New Art Scene 4. The Art Scene Descends 5.

Farrar, Straus and Giroux Art Monsters
Book SynopsisA Must-Read: Vogue, Nylon, Chicago Review of Books, Literary Hub, Frieze, The Millions, Publishers Weekly, InsideHook, The Next Big Idea Club,?[Lauren] Elkin is a stylish, determined provocateur . . . Sharp and cool . . . [Art Monsters is] exemplary. It describes a whole way to live, worthy of secret admiration.? ?Maggie Lange, The Washington Post?Destined to become a new classic . . . Elkin shatters the truisms that have evolved around feminist thought.? ?Chris Kraus, author of I Love Dick and After Kathy Acker: A Literary BiographyWhat kind of art does a monster make? And what if monster is a verb? Noun or a verb, the idea is a dare: to overwhelm limits, to invent our own definitions of beauty.In this dazzlingly original reassessment of women?s stories, bodies, and art, Lauren Elkin?the celebrated author of Flâneuse?explores the ways in which feminist artists have taken up the challenge of their work and how they not only react against the patriarchy but redefine their own aesthetic aims. How do we tell the truth about our experiences as bodies? What is the language, what are the materials, that we need to transcribe them? And what are the unique questions facing those engaged with female bodies, queer bodies, sick bodies, racialized bodies? Encompassing a rich genealogy of work across the literary and artistic landscape, Elkin makes daring links between disparate points of reference?among them Julia Margaret Cameron?s photography, Kara Walker?s silhouettes, Vanessa Bell?s portraits, Eva Hesse?s rope sculptures, Carolee Schneemann?s body art, Theresa Hak Kyung Cha?s trilingual masterpiece DICTEE?and steps into the tradition of cultural criticism established by Susan Sontag, Hélène Cixous, and Maggie Nelson. An erudite, potent examination of beauty and excess, sentiment and touch, the personal and the political, the ambiguous and the opaque, Art Monsters is a radical intervention that forces us to consider how the idea of the art monster might transform the way we imagine?and enact?our lives.

WW Norton & Co You Dont Own Me
Book SynopsisThe question of whether our ideas are our own or our employer’s set off the greatest toy war of our time.Trade Review"At its core, You Don’t Own Me is an exploration of a relatively dry topic: the intellectual property regime. Yet in the hands of Lobel… this case study in who should benefit from an employee’s creativity becomes something of a page-turner." -- Financial Times"You Don’t Own Me is an extended case study that’s fascinating and consequential thanks to Lobel’s storytelling skill. Through her descriptions of flamboyant personalities and outrageous corporate scheming, she elevates the story of a protracted legal case into a page-turner that holds up a lipstick-pink mirror to both American consumer culture and corporate misbehaviour." -- Times Higher Education"In a crisp, conversational style, Lobel plots the twists and turns of the unfolding court cases. […] Lobel tells a vivid tale of corporate war." -- Times Literary Supplement

Thames & Hudson Ltd Misère
Book SynopsisThe coming of the Industrial Revolution in the early 19th century witnessed unprecedented changes in society: rapid economic progress went hand-in-hand with appalling working conditions, displacement, squalor and destitution for those at the bottom of the social scale. These new circumstances presented a challenge to contemporary image-makers, who wished to capture the effects of hunger, poverty and alienation in Britain, Ireland and France in the era before documentary photography. In this groundbreaking book, the eminent art historian Linda Nochlin examines the styles and expressive strategies that were used by artists and illustrators to capture this misère, roughly characterized as poverty that afflicts both body and soul. She investigates images of the Irish Famine in the period 184651; the gendered representation of misery, particularly of poor women and prostitutes; and the work of three very different artists: Théodore Géricault, Gustave Courbet and the less wellknown Fernand Pelez. The artists' desire to depict the poor and the outcast accurately and convincingly is still a pertinent issue, though now, as Nochlin observes, the question has a moral and ethical dimension does the documentary style belittle its subjects and degrade their condition?Trade Review'Nochlin’s influence on critical writing and teaching is legendary, and this engrossing analysis of the visual representation of misery in the 19th century is a must-read for anyone hoping to address our troubling times' - Cindy Sherman'This slim, erudite, enlightened volume is a heartfelt coda to [Linda Nochlin’s] oeuvre' - Financial Times'Brilliant and important … Nochlin was a trailblazer to the end' - Apollo'Nochlin speaks clearly and simply to the ongoing question of whether art can or should be form of activism' - Art Review'A fresh perspective to the emotive and controversial subject of depicting the poor … insightful art criticism meets social history' - The Lady'What endures in this final book is a fixation with the past as a portal to present misères, whether persistent gender inequalities or economic disparities as extreme as those of the industrial age' - Scotland on Sunday'It is to Linda Nochlin’s credit that she found the words to match the images that form the heart of this beautifully produced book' - Spectator'Lively and fascinating … a valuable publication' - Irish Arts Review'A fascinating coda to a great career' - Frances Spalding, GuardianTable of ContentsMisère: An Introduction • 1.

University of California Press Fluxus Experience
Book SynopsisThis work explores the influential art movement Fluxus. Daring, disparate and contentious, Fluxus artists worked with minimal and prosaic materials now familiar in post-World War II art. Higgins describes the experience of Fluxus for viewers as affirming transactions between self and world.Trade Review"Higgins bravely argues for the experiential, life-affirming qualities of Fluxus, combining theory and practice in a most sophisticated, engaging, and refreshing manner. She situates Fluxus in the context of American art history as well as international art practices, while exploring sense-related theory in enticing accounts of her own observations of and participation in Fluxus works." - Kathy O'Dell, author of Contract with the Skin: Masochism, Performance Art, and the 1970s "Higgins provides a new, refreshing way of seeing the politics within and around Fluxus, exposing the politically charged press coverage of the movement and dismantling its prejudicial legacy. Higgins represents a new generation of Fluxus scholars who are impatient with the objective pose and historical rigidity of academic art history." - Simon AndersonTable of ContentsAcknowledgments Preface Introduction I.

Written for a wide audience, this book illuminates the dynamics of a discerning and sophisticated population, overturning much accepted wisdom about them, and opening our eyes to their cultural diversity.Trade Review"Fresh, improvised, and anything but standard...Clarke's [book] will constitute the best and maybe the only way of looking at much of Roman art. [This] thoughtful and humane book is a welcome reminder of how much more there is to art history than social status and political power. Lavishly and beautifully illustrated with original photography." - Greg Woolf, Times Literary Supplement (tls) "An enriched and more varied view of the complexity of Roman artistic production...Recommended." - R. Brilliant, Choice: Current Reviews For Academic Libraries "Art in the Lives of Ordinary Romans is superbly out of the ordinary.

University of California Press Radical Eroticism
Book SynopsisIn the 1960s, the fascination with erotic art generated a wave of exhibitions and critical discussion on sexual freedom, visual pleasure, and the nude in contemporary art. Radical Eroticism examines the importance of women's contributions in fundamentally reconfiguring representations of sexuality across several areas of advanced art-performance, pop, postminimalism, and beyond. This study shows that erotic art made by women was integral to the profound changes that took place in American art during the sixties, from the crumbling of modernist aesthetics and the expanding field of art practice to the emergence of the feminist art movement. The works of Carolee Schneemann, Martha Edelheit, Marjorie Strider, Hannah Wilke, and Anita Steckel exemplify the innovative approaches to the erotic that explored female sexual subjectivities and destabilized assumptions about gender. Rachel Middleman reveals these artists' radical interventions in both aesthetic conventions and social norms.Trade Review"Rather than calling for a new aesthetic category of “the erotic,” Middleman’s study identifies the use of diverse erotic aesthetics in art produced by women as a means of political action. In so doing, Radical Eroticism amounts to a political act in its own right." * ASAP/J *“…Middleman provides an insightful examination of the exhibition and critical reception of erotic art, laying the groundwork for understanding the social context and political stakes of the approaches of women artists to eroticism in a decade of expanding forms of artistic practice, the demise of modernist aesthetics, and the rise of the feminist art movement.” * Panorama: Journal of the Association of Historians of American Art *Table of ContentsAcknowledgments Introduction 1.

University of California Press Oil Age Eskimos
Book SynopsisIn a book made especially timely by the disastrous Exxon Valdez oil spill in March 1989, Joseph Jorgensen analyzes the impact of Alaskan oil extraction on Eskimo society. The author investigated three communities representing three environments: Gambell (St. Lawrence Island, Bering Sea), Wainwright (North Slope, Chukchi Sea), and Unalakleet (Norton Sound). The Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act of 1971, which facilitated oil operations, dramatically altered the economic, social, and political organization of these villages and others like them. Although they have experienced little direct economic benefit from the oil economy, they have assumed many environmental risks posed by the industry. Jorgensen provides a detailed reminder that the Native villagers still depend on the harvest of naturally-occurring resources of the land and seabirds, eggs, fish, plants, land mammals and sea mammals. Oil Age Eskimos should be read by all those interested in Native American societies and the policies that affect those societies. This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press's mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in 1990.

University of California Press Craft Culture in Early Modern Japan
Book SynopsisArticles crafted from lacquer, silk, cotton, paper, ceramics, and iron were central to daily life in early modern Japan. They were powerful carriers of knowledge, sociality, and identity, and their facture was a matter of serious concern among makers and consumers alike. In this innovative study, Christine M.E. Guth offers a holistic framework for appreciating the crafts produced in the city and countryside, by celebrity and unknown makers, between the late sixteenth and mid-nineteenth centuries. Her study throws into relief the confluence of often overlooked forces that contributed to Japan's diverse, dynamic, and aesthetically sophisticated artifactual culture. By bringing into dialogue key issues such as natural resources and their management, media representations, gender and workshop organization, embodied knowledge, and innovation, she invites readers to think about Japanese crafts as emerging from cooperative yet competitive expressive environments involving both human and nonhuTrade Review"This is a book that brings the past into conversation with the present, inspiring the reader with its insights into possibilities for the future." * Monumenta Nipponica *Table of ContentsAcknowledgments Prologue Introduction 1.

University of California Press Appreciation Post
Book SynopsisWhat does an art history of Instagram look like? Appreciation Post reveals how Instagram shifts long-established ways of interacting with images. Tara Ward argues Instagram is a structure of the visual, which includes not just the process of looking, but what can be seen and by whom. She examines features of Instagram use, including the effect of scrolling through images on a phone, the skill involved in taking an Instagram-worthy picture, and the desires created by following influencers, to explain how the constraints imposed by Instagram limit the selves that can be displayed on it. The proliferation of technical knowledge, especially among younger women, revitalizes on Instagram the myth of the masculine genius and a corresponding reinvigoration of a masculine audience for art. Ward prompts scholars of art history, gender studies, and media studies to attend to Instagram as a site of visual expression and social consequence.

Book SynopsisIt has become apparent that criticism has fallen on hard times. This book explores contemporary approaches which have sought to renew criticism's energies in the wake of a 'theatrical turn' in visual arts practice, and the emergence of a 'performative' arts writing over the decade or so.Trade Review"After Criticism is crucial to any discussion regarding the status of criticism and critical theory after post-structuralism and, equally importantly, is one of few texts that is innovative in its illumination of context, history, aesthetic judgement and, rare for an academic text, enjoyable to read." Art Monthly "After Criticism is no doubt the most intriguing collection of performative writing published yet. Being refreshing, entertaining as well as inspiringly confusing, it is essential reading for anyone writing on art who does not only think of what to write, but also how to write it." Contemporary "Though it seems contradictory to write words of praise for a book that deeply interrogates the marketability of praiseful language (in the guise of art criticism), Gavin Butt's collection deserves them. Framed by Butt's astute introduction, these performative essays pulse with vitality. Food for thought, this book makes us think, again, about art and its interpretations in a new way. Critical writing as a kind of performance – delicious." Amelia Jones, University of Manchester "This anthology is an excellent overview of performative critical discourse edited and introduced by one of its leading proponents. All the contributions have an experimental or improvisational edge that preserves a sense of the critical encounter. The book is at the cutting edge of art theory and will be read with enthusiasm by a large number of people engaged with contemporary art practice and criticism."

John Wiley and Sons Ltd After Criticism
Book SynopsisIt has recently become apparent that criticism has fallen on hard times. Either commodification is deemed to have killed it off, or it has become institutionally routine. This book explores contemporary approaches which have sought to renew criticism''s energies in the wake of a ''theatrical turn'' in recent visual arts practice, and the emergence of a ''performative'' arts writing over the past decade or so. Issues addressed include the ''performing'' of art''s histories; the consequences for criticism of embracing boredom, distraction and other ''queer'' forms of (in)attention; and the importance of exploring writerly process in responding to aesthetic experience. Bringing together newly commissioned work from the fields of art history, performance studies, and visual culture with the writings of contemporary artists, After Criticism provides a set of experimental essays which demonstrate how ''the critical'' might live on as a vital and efficacious force within contTrade Review"After Criticism is crucial to any discussion regarding the status of criticism and critical theory after post-structuralism and, equally importantly, is one of few texts that is innovative in its illumination of context, history, aesthetic judgement and, rare for an academic text, enjoyable to read." Art Monthly "After Criticism is no doubt the most intriguing collection of performative writing published yet. Being refreshing, entertaining as well as inspiringly confusing, it is essential reading for anyone writing on art who does not only think of what to write, but also how to write it." Contemporary "Though it seems contradictory to write words of praise for a book that deeply interrogates the marketability of praiseful language (in the guise of art criticism), Gavin Butt's collection deserves them. Framed by Butt's astute introduction, these performative essays pulse with vitality. Food for thought, this book makes us think, again, about art and its interpretations in a new way. Critical writing as a kind of performance – delicious." Amelia Jones, University of Manchester "This anthology is an excellent overview of performative critical discourse edited and introduced by one of its leading proponents. All the contributions have an experimental or improvisational edge that preserves a sense of the critical encounter. The book is at the cutting edge of art theory and will be read with enthusiasm by a large number of people engaged with contemporary art practice and criticism."

Harvard University Press Portraits of John Quincy Adams and His Wife
Book SynopsisThe publication of Portraits of John Quincy Adams and His Wife makes available a record which both affords unique visual documentation of the most varied political career in American history and exemplifies the work of the principal American portraitists from the days of Copley and Stuart to the dawn of the Daguerrean era. Included in the volume's 159 illustrations are all the known life portraits, busts, and silhouettes of John Quincy and Louisa Catherine Adams, along with important replicas, copies, engravings, and representative likenesses of their siblings. The book is organized into seven chapters which generally coincide with the major divisions of John Quincy Adams' political career. Within each chapter are discussed the artists, their relationships with the Adams's, and the provenance of each of their works. A comprehensive chronology of John Quincy Adams' life for each period accompanies the chapter to which it pertains. All important information about the size of each likeness, the inscriptions if any, the date executed, and present ownership where known is summarized in the List of Illustrations. The Adams's, as they watched themselves age over the years in the marble, ink, or oil of the artists who portrayed them, recorded much by way of commentary on the artistic talent and process at hand. Andrew Oliver, in his detailed and lively discussions of each likeness, makes full use of the diaries and correspondence preserved in the Adams Papers, thus combining a learned appreciation with an intimate glimpse of Adams's as they saw themselves. The volume continues the record of Adams family portraiture begun with Portraits of John and Abigail Adams. The two volumes together constitute Series IV of the distinguished Adams Papers publications.

Princeton University Press The Melancholy Art
Book SynopsisMelancholy is not only about sadness, despair, and loss. As Renaissance artists and philosophers acknowledged long ago, it can engender a certain kind of creativity born from a deep awareness of the mutability of life and the inevitable cycle of birth and death. Drawing on psychoanalysis, philosophy, and the intellectual history of the history of aTrade Review"Enchanting."--Holland Cotter, New York Times "Nostalgic and plaintive, this title's examination of the work of art historians is an enjoyable literary exercise that will foster discussion among art historians and their students."--Library Journal "To consider melancholy in art beyond the limits of despondency, loss, and grief is a refreshing way to induce a different space and energy between the past of the artwork and the viewer's present. In these erudite essays, art historian Michael Ann Holly makes case for works of art--'these beautiful orphans'--that reinvest in melancholia as the signifier and the signified."--Greta Aart, Cerise Press "In support of her argument, Holly marshals a wealth of erudition indicative of formidable trans-historical, interdisciplinary expertise... With the utmost refinement, Holly's own poetic resonance echoes from artful analogy and suggestive imagery."--Giovanna Costantini, Leonardo Reviews "While the driving power of melancholy remains unclear, many readers will be intrigued by this highly personal take on the profession."--Choice "Holly's elegant and thoughtful book focuses on the encounter of the viewer with the work of art."--Kathryn Murphy, Apollo Magazine "Exemplary."--Ivan Gaskell, Brooklyn Rail "The Melancholy Art is both an apt embodiment of contemporary disciplinary conundrums and a deeply moving account of one art historian's personal attempt to reckon with the impossibility - the futility - of 'closing the gap between words and images.'... Holly clearly exemplifies both senses of the term in this memorable and indeed rather haunting text... The value of The Melancholy Art is precisely in simultaneously manifesting such a conundrum and in refusing to fall into the fundamentalist trap of either attributing or denying real agency to artworks. All our 'art history' books should be so brave."--Donald Preziosi, CAA ReviewsTable of ContentsPreface xi Acknowledgments xxiii 1 The Melancholy Art 1 2 Viennese Ghosts 25 3 Stones of Solace 53 4 Patterns in the Shadows 73 5 Mourning and Method 95 Postscript 117 Notes 133 Bibliography 165 Index 183

Book SynopsisExamines the changing significance of ruins as vehicles for cultural memory in Chinese art and visual culture from ancient times to the present. In this book, the author shows how the story of ruins in China is different from but connected to "ruin culture" in the West.Trade Review"This intriguing study effectively aims for a universal understanding of ruins."--Choice "[T]his is a well-researched, ambitious, and important book that should appeal greatly to anyone interested in Chinese visual culture as well as ruins in general. As always, Wu's reading of images is thorough and perceptive. This book is a real gem also because of its beautifully reproduced images from a great variety of visual sources, including paintings, prints, films, photographs, and architecture."--Tong Lam, Journal of Asian Studies "A Story of Ruins is a powerful book, made more powerful by the many, haunting illustrations. It challenges a reader to think and feel as she reads."--Nancy S. Steinhardt, Journal of the Royal Asiatic Society
