Book Description
"Simon Denny's new body of work for Portikus ranks among the most ambitious the artist has developed to date. Over the period of one year, the artist researched and developed an intricate project that has grown to considerable dimensions -- both physically and in terms of its critical content. For two months, the monumental gallery space is turned into an homage to technology, communication, and the relentless need for innovation. Simon Denny has produced an embracing and multi-faceted installation that functions as a documentary of the South Korean technology giant Samsung and its global success story. The exhibition's title, "New Management", refers to the legendary management philosophy that Lee Kun-hee, Chairman of the Samsung Group, infamously introduced in the early nineties."--Publisher's website.

Book Description
At the age of twenty-eight, Marty Ellis is still a bachelor who graduated with a major in journalism and a minor in photojournalism. He enjoys his life with various girlfriends while knocking back drinks in bars, going out to dinner, and rolling in the sheets. Yet inevitably, he grows tired of these surface-level-only feelings, shells out his standard goodbye speech, and moves on. However, using only his body and saying sayonara to his love lifeaEUR(tm)s revolving door is not how he wants to live for the rest of his life. How will he ever know what true love feels like if he doesnaEUR(tm)t ascertain how to actually give it? In what way will he begin to be able to discover the whole package that runs beneath the surface of a woman? Unexpectedly, Marty is blindsided when his best friend invites him to leave New Jersey for a weekend trip. Lauren Morris is a beautiful thirty-two-year-old woman who, after graduating at the age of twenty-one with a masteraEUR(tm)s degree in business, took a huge leap of faith and purchased an old farmhouse in Vermont. After ten years of hard work and sweat equity, she has transformed it into a beautiful inn that has become extremely lucrative. But winter is fast approaching, and she is dreading that feeling of loneliness that is connected to darkened afternoons and long, empty nights. Will a man ever enter her life? One that she could love and perhaps be with until death due them part? After meeting Marty, Lauren begins to consider if this man might be the one she has been waiting for her whole life. But then again, she is older than he is; long distance relationships hardly ever work out; and sudden heartbreaking unforeseen events rock both of their worlds. And if they do fall in love, which one of them will have to make the ultimate sacrifice and give up what theyaEUR(tm)ve worked so hard to achieve in order to be together? With so many changes causing so many challenges, will they get through them together, or will one push the other away?

In the Flow
Author: Boris Groys
Publisher: Verso Books
ISBN: 178478348X
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 211
Book Description
In the early 20th century, art and its institutions came under critique from a new democratic and egalitarian spirit. In an age of secularism and materialism, artworks would be understood as merely things among other things. This meant an attack on the techniques of realism, and the traditional mission of the museum, both designed shield a small class of objects from the entropic fate awaiting everything else-and the development of an approach that Boris Groys calls "direct realism": an art that would not produce objects, but practices that could enter the flow of time to live and die like the rest of us. But for more than a century now, every advance in this direction has been quickly followed by new means of preserving art's distinction. In this major new work, Groys, one of the world's leading art theorists, charts the paradoxes produced by this tension, which continues to structure the production and reception of new art. The internet, the latest medium through which artists have attempted to disavow this special status, inverts the most notorious consequence of early modernist developments. If the techniques of mechanical reproduction gave us objects without aura, digital production generates aura without objects, transforming all its materials into vanishing markers of the transitory present.

The Wonder Approach
Author: Catherine L'Ecuyer
Publisher: Hachette UK
ISBN: 1472143868
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 159
Book Description
'This book is a must-read for parents and educators who want to refocus children's attention to one of the greatest secrets to long-term happiness - discovering the extraordinary in the ordinary' - Jessica Joelle Alexander, co-author of The Danish Way of Parenting Children of the last twenty years have grown up in an increasingly frenzied and demanding environment so that, on one hand, education has been rendered more complicated, and on the other, the essentials have been lost to view. In order to ensure their future success, parents often feel that they must fill their children's schedules with endless activities that cause leisure, spontaneous activity, and the experience of nature, beauty and silence, to fade out of their lives. This veritable race toward adulthood distances children more and more from the natural laws of childhood. A constant stream of loud and flashy stimuli disturbs the only true and sustainable learning that exists in them: that of calmly and quietly discovering the world for themselves and at their own pace, with a sense of wonder that goes beyond mere curiosity for the unknown or interest in novelty. In a world such as this, it can be a daunting task for a parent or educator of young children to discern how to best raise their children. Catherine L'Ecuyer offers clarity, drawing attention to the findings of many studies of the last few decades on the effects of screen use, overstimulation and mechanistic approaches to education on young children, and suggests time exploring the real world, more silence and the 'Wonder Approach' as remedies. Learning should be a wondrous journey guided by a deep reflection on what the natural laws of childhood require: respect for children's pace and rhythms, innocence, sense of mystery and thirst for beauty.
