Designer, activist, and educator Cheryl D. Holmes-Miller is legendary for her decades of scholarship and advocacy, and as a touchstone and conscience for the design profession. In HERE: Where the Black Designers Are, Holmes-Miller documents the history of—and answers to—the question she has been asking for decades: “Where are the Black designers?” Holmes-Miller explores this essential question through the lens of her own development as a designer and leader, beginning with her own family and its rich multiethnic history.

What is blurred vision? Is it merely a physical condition, or does it extend to matters of the heart? For Judy Kirby, author of a poignant collection of poems and writings spanning a decade, these questions have defined her life's journey. At the age of 20, Judy's path turned unexpectedly when she was diagnosed with Stargardt's Macular Degeneration. This condition gradually robbed her of the ability to see faces and navigate the world as she once did. The promising future ahead of her, including a college degree in computer programming and accounting, suddenly seemed uncertain

Mitchell Burns never wanted to be a miner. Growing up in a Queensland coal mining town with parents in the industry, pursuing his passion for photography just didn't feel like an option. So, he went in the only direction he knew – straight into the mines.

In Belle Époque Paris, the Eiffel Tower was newly built, France was experiencing remarkable political stability, and American women were painting the town and gathering at a female-only Residence known as The American Girls' Club in Paris. Opened in 1893, The Club was the center of expatriate living and of dedication to a calling in the fine arts, and singularly harbored a generation of independent, talented, and driven American women. Now in The Club, curator, art historian, and podcast host Jennifer Dasal presents the never-before-told story of the Club.

1990ರ ದಶಕದಲ್ಲಿ ಜಾಹಿರಾತು ಜಗತ್ತಿನಲ್ಲಿ ಮಿಂಚಿದ ಕಪ್ಪು ಶಿಲೆಯಂತ ಸುಂದರಿ ವಾರಿಸ್ ಡೆರಿಸ್ ನಳ ಆತ್ಮಕಥನ 'ಡೆಸರ್ಟ್ ಫ್ಲವರ್'ನ ಕನ್ನಡಾನುವಾದ. ವಾರಿಸ್ ಡೆರಿಸ್ ಜಗತ್ತಿನ ಜಾಹಿರಾತು ಲೋಕದಲ್ಲಿ ಅಚ್ಚಳಿಯದ ಹೆಸರು. 1990ರ ದಶಕದಲ್ಲಿ ಪ್ರಸಿದ್ಧ ಸೌಂದರ್ಯವರ್ಧಕ ಉತ್ಪನ್ನಗಳ ಬಹುರಾಷ್ಟ್ರೀಯ ಕಂಪನಿಯಾದ ರೆವಲಾನ್ ಸಂಸ್ಥೆ ತನ್ನ ಉತ್ಪನ್ನಗಳಿಗೆ ಕಡೆದ ಕಪ್ಪು ಕಲ್ಲಿನ ಶಿಲೆಯಂತಿದ್ದ ವಾರಿಸ್ ಡೆರಿಸ್ ಳನ್ನು ಅನೇಕ ವರ್ಷಗಳ ಕಾಲ ಜಾಗತಿಕ ಮಟ್ಟದಲ್ಲಿ ರೂಪದರ್ಶಿಯಾಗಿ ನೇಮಕ ಮಾಡಿಕೊಂಡಿತ್ತು. ಹಾಗಾಗಿ ಕಪ್ಪನೆಯ, ತೆಳ್ಳಗಿನ, ಪುಟ್ಟ ಬಾಯಿಯ ಈ ಸುಂದರಿಯ ಮುಖ ಜಗತ್ತಿನ ಬಹುಪಾಲು ಜನತೆಗೆ ಅಪರಿಚಿತವಾಗಿ ಉಳಿದಿಲ್ಲ.

कलेला जीवन वाहिलेल्या व्यक्तीने लग्नाच्या भानगडीत पडावं की नाही ? त्याचं पहिलं लग्न आवडीच्या कलेबरोबर लागलेलं असतं. डोक्यात सदैव आगामी कलाकृतीविषयीचा विचार किंवा तिची प्रत्यक्ष निर्मिती सुरू असते. कितीही संवेदनशील असलं तरीही आपल्या सहचरणीच्या भावना त्याच्या लक्षात येऊ शकत नाहीत. त्याचं पर्यावसन दुःखद , वेदनामय होऊ शकतं. दैवाचा खेळ !

Throughout his five-decade career, film director Abel Ferrara—now in his seventies—has been one of cinema’s most provocative and critically revered figures. Since beginning as an independent filmmaker in Manhattan in the early 1970s—before “indie films” were a genre—and refining his craft as a director for the TV show Miami Vice, he has directed more than thirty feature films, most notably the cult classics Bad Lieutenant, King of New York, and Dangerous Game.

Camille Claudel la transgressive, la sculptrice de génie, l’artiste sulfureuse et maudite, l’amante libre de Rodin, basculant dans la folie, enfermée à l’asile durant les trente dernières années de sa vie. Artiste trop avance sur son temps, elle s’affranchit de toutes les règles, de toutes les conventions sociales. Son œuvre sera sa vie. Outre qu’elle a sculpté avec acharnement durant trente ans, elle a été, quasiment toute sa vie, une épistolière assidue. Des lettres, elle en a écrit des centaines, et nombreuses sont celles perdues ou détruites.

La Trinité, Johnny Hallyday, Les Play-Boys, les premiers galas, Jacques Lanzmann, Serge Gainsbourg, les escapades marocaines, Maurice Pialat, Claude Sautet, Jean-Luc Godard, Merde in France, les cigares, l'alcool, la Corse... À sa façon inimitable, Jacques Dutronc se souvient et raconte.

Umes Arunagirinathan und Peggy Parnass trennten fünfzig Lebensjahre, die Hautfarbe, das Geschlecht und auch sonst eine ganze Menge. Doch entscheidend ist, was sie verband. Beide erlebten die tiefgreifende Erfahrung von Flucht und Vertreibung. Peggy wurde von ihrer Mutter 1939 auf einem Kindertransport nach Schweden geschickt, um sie vor der NS-Verfolgung zu retten. Umes kam als 13-jähriger unbegleiteter Flüchtling aus Sri Lanka nach Deutschland. Bei beiden verursacht dieses Schicksal viel Leid, aber löst auch den tiefen Wunsch aus, die Welt besser zu machen.

The paintings of Johannes Vermeer of Delft are some of the most beautiful, even sublime, in the history of art. Yet like the life of Vermeer himself, they are mysterious and have for centuries defied explanation. Following new leads, and drawing on a mass of historical evidence, some of it freshly uncovered in the archives of Delft and Rotterdam, Andrew Graham-Dixon paints a dramatically new picture of Vermeer, revealing many of the painter’s hitherto unknown friendships as well as his previously undetected allegiance to a radical movement driven underground by persecution.

" Le 19 avril 1980, une foule immense, silencieuse, accompagne le convoi funèbre de Sartre jusqu’au cimetière du Montparnasse, à Paris. Derrière Simone de Beauvoir, en tête de cortège, plus de cin-quante mille personnes sont venues rendre un dernier hommage au penseur français le plus célèbre au monde. Comment expliquer sa notoriété, comment mesurer aujourd’hui l’impact de la pensée et de l’écriture de Sartre dans la société actuelle ?

Appréhender l’œuvre et la pensée de Machiavel n’est pas un exercice facile, tant l’ombre du machia-vélisme plane au-dessus d’elles. De ces fables, l’auteur nous invite à nous départir afin d’accéder à la pensée politique de l’humaniste et chancelier de Florence, Niccolò Machiavelli et aux conditions de sa formation. Ainsi nous découvrons l’homme Machiavel, soucieux de se mettre au service de la Sei-gneurie de Florence et se lamentant des divers revers de fortune.

Мы снова и снова гуляем по залам музеев и любуемся прекрасными произведениями живописи, подолгу вглядываясь в каждое полотно. Нам кажутся такими чарующими великолепные портреты, натюрморты и пейзажи и поэтому личности знаменитых художников кажутся нам безупречными, они для нас – образчики чистоты и красоты. Мы ведь привыкли воспринимать знаменитых художников через небольшие пояснения к их картинам и краткие биографические сведения, которые не сложно отыскать в библиотеках и на просторах интернета. Это делает их образы почти бесплотными.

The enchanting story of La Maison du Pastel, a tiny shop in Paris that has been providing pastels to artists since the eighteenth century, and the two women who fell in love and brought it back to life.

Flower is a book of realistic admissions, likes, dislikes, memories and no-brainer observations, treating personal truth as unavailable – something that must be made up and convincing. Taking cues from confessional literature, his daughter’s improvised games, poor internet writing and shitty AI, Ed Atkins, in his first work of non-fiction, equivocates between inanity and divinity, ease and pain, sentimentality and sterility.

Frank Lloyd Wright (June 8, 1867 to April 9, 1959), born in Richland Center, Wisconsin, was an American architect, designer, writer, and educator. He designed more than 1,000 structures over a creative period of 70 years. Wright played a key role in the architectural movements of the twentieth century, influencing architects worldwide through his works and mentoring hundreds of apprentices in his Taliesin Fellowship. Wright believed in designing in harmony with humanity and the environment, a philosophy he called organic architecture.

Sir Nigel Thompson walked to school around the bomb craters of the London Blitz—it made him want to build things, rather than knock them down. After studying structural engineering in Africa, he worked on hospitals and theaters in London, and later headed the team that designed University of Qatar. He went on to design Embankment Place, a massive office complex built over London’s Charing Cross railway station. Turning from building to rebuilding, he explored construction opportunities for British firms during the Gulf War, in Kuwait’s still-burning oil fields.
