A Storm in Pandora's Tea Box
Author: Garry B Grove
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 1446155641
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 178
Book Description
A Storm In Pandora's Tea Box by Garry B Grove is a volume of reflective poetry. As love is polarised by hate, pain the antithesis of pleasure, the deceptive calm that precedes a storm can also be an impending maelstrom. When the lid is removed from Pandora's Tea Box then many elements of the life experience and it's emotions are open from the cradle to the grave. A paean to the cyclical mystery of life's inherent gift and celebrations of individual expression. Fate's finger points and the consequences may be serious or hilarious, a matter of life and death, much ado about nothing or an unforeseen catastrophe. All extremities have their felicitous paradoxes.

Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0190450215
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 432

With three chapters each devoted to Stan Brakhage and Robert Beavers, two each to Hollis Frampton and Jonas Mekas, and single chapters on Marie Menken, Ian Hugo, Andrew Noren, Warren Sonbert, Su Friedrich, Ernie Gehr, and Abigail Child, Eyes Upside Down is the fruit of Sitney's lifelong study of visionary aspirations in the American avant-garde cinema.

Mani's Pictures
Author: Zsuzsanna Gulácsi
Publisher: BRILL
ISBN: 9004308946
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 555
Book Description
The founder of Manichaeism, Mani (216-274/277 CE), not only wrote down his teachings to prevent their adulteration, but also created a set of paintings—the Book of Pictures—to be used in the context of oral instruction. That pictorial handscroll and its later editions became canonical art for Mani's followers for a millennium afterwards. This richly illustrated study systematically explores the artistic culture of religious instruction of the Manichaeans based on textual and artistic evidence. It discusses the doctrinal themes (soteriology, prophetology, theology, and cosmology) depicted in Mani’s canonical pictures. Moreover, it identifies 10th-century fragments of canonical picture books, as well as select didactic images adapted to other, non-canonical art objects (murals, hanging scrolls, mortuary banners, and illuminated liturgical manuscripts) in Uygur Central Asia and Tang-Ming China.

Fragments
Author: Jean Baudrillard
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1136501800
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 138
Book Description
Jean Baudrillard is one of the most revered philosophers of the past century, and his work has helped define how we think about the post-modern. In this fascinating book of interviews conducted with Francois L'Yvonnet, Baudrillard is on sparkling form and explores his life in terms of his educational, political and literary experiences, as well as reflecting on his intellectual genesis and his position as outsider in the field of great French thinkers. Perhaps most interestingly, Baudrillard discusses his life's work in relationship to his contemporaries: thinkers such as Bataille and the Situationists, Barthes, Lyotard, and Deleuze, amongst others. Fragments: Interviews with Jean Baudrillard will be essential reading for any scholar of Baudrillard, but will also prove an attractive and informative starting point for any student trying to get to grips with his work for the first time.

Movie Journal
Author: Jonas Mekas
Publisher: Columbia University Press
ISBN: 0231541589
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 496
Book Description
In his Village Voice "Movie Journal" columns, Jonas Mekas captured the makings of an exciting movement in 1960s American filmmaking. Works by Andy Warhol, Gregory J. Markapoulos, Stan Brakhage, Jack Smith, Robert Breer, and others echoed experiments already underway elsewhere, yet they belonged to a nascent tradition that only a true visionary could identify. Mekas incorporated the most essential characteristics of these films into a unique conception of American filmmaking's next phase. He simplified complex aesthetic strategies for unfamiliar audiences and appreciated the subversive genius of films that many dismissed as trash. This new edition presents Mekas's original critiques in full, with additional material on the filmmakers, film studies scholars, and popular and avant-garde critics whom he inspired and transformed.
