Story
On March 23, 1849, Henry Brown climbed into a large wooden postal crate and was mailed from slavery in Richmond, Virginia, to freedom in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. "Box Brown," as he came to be known after this astounding feat, went on to carve out a career as an abolitionist speaker, actor, magician, hypnotist, and even faith healer. The Many Resurrections of Henry Box Brown is the first book to show how subversive performances were woven into Brown's entire life, from his early days practicing magic in Virginia while enslaved, to his last shows in Canada and England in the 1890s.

Story
Para Francis Schaeffer, o cristão deve usar as artes para glorificar a Deus, não simplesmente como propaganda evangelística, mas como algo belo para a glória de Deus. "A Arte e a Bíblia" é uma obra fundamental para cristãos atuantes no mundo das artes. Neste clássico, Schaeffer examina o registro escritural da utilização de várias formas artísticas e estabelece uma perspectiva cristã sobre a arte. Com clareza e vigor, ele explica por que "o cristão é alguém cuja imaginação deve voar além das estrelas".

Der Wiener Hofsekretär Jaromir von Eynhuf will seinem Landesvater Kaiser Franz I. zu dessen 25. Thronjubiläum seine Milchzahnsammlung überreichen. Inzwischen besitzt der Sekretär bereits stolze 24 Zähne, allesamt akkurat auf Samt drapiert. Doch zur Darstellung der Jubiläumszahl fehlt noch ein letzter Zahn und so beginnt eine wilde Jagd nach dem 25. Exemplar. Fritz von Herzmanovsky-Orlando, 1877 in Wien geboren, hat mit »Der Gaulschreck im Rosennetz« der K.-u.-k.-Monarchie ein unvergessliches literarisches Denkmal gesetzt – meisterhaft gelesen von Werner Kreindl.

Story
No hi ha una sola Roma; n'hi ha tantes com mirades hi reposen, tantes com passejades o cafès. Roma és un pòsit d'hores viscudes, d'esglésies on tornes a entrar, de columnes i negronis, de l'art que fascina i els ocres que t'atrapen. Aquesta és una Roma íntima, feta de records personals, de viatges i anècdotes, de les veus d'uns altres i de la pròpia veu que mira de copsar-la a través dels detalls. Un poble que és capital sentimental. No és una guia turística ni una enciclopèdia històrica, sinó un retrat de la ciutat i, alhora, un autoretrat de qui la mira i la viu.

Story
Смешные и грустные истории из жизни художников, перемежающиеся экскурсами в историю искусства и философскими рассуждениями о современном мире, удивительным образом "расшифровывают" культурные коды, лежащие в основе нашей реальности. Сложнейшие смыслы, накопленные искусством за долгие годы, в этой необычной книге как бы переведены на язык простого человеческого диалога. Какова природа искусства, какое место "художественное" занимает в нашей жизни, что такое современность, что будет с искусством завтра и зачем живут творцы - ответы на эти вопросы можно поискать вместе с автором.

Ни одна культура, ни один культурный этап не имеет такого прямого отношения к современности, как эпоха Возрождения. Ренессанс – наиболее прогрессивный и революционный период в истории человечества. Об этом рассказывает Паола Дмитриевна Волкова в следующей аудиокниге цикла Мост через бездну, принимая эстафету у первого искусствоведа, Джоржо Вазари, настоящего человека своей эпохи – писателя, живописца и архитектора.Художники Возрождения – Сандро Ботичелли и Леонардо да Винчи, Рафаэль и Тициан, Иероним Босх и Питер Брейгель Старший – никогда не были просто художниками.

Many people try to describe their experience when “in the zone” or “in the flow” during the creative process. Some claim that a Greater Power or Divine Guidance assisted them. But, what is this state of consciousness, and how do we replicate it? In search of answers, writer and painter Christopher J. Miller took the suggestion of one of his art mentors to watch and chronicle his creative process.

Responding to many recent calls for redress and restitution, Richardson summarises the historical and current situation and attributes its problematics to the fact that theorists and historians have taken the concept art as a generic that includes both design and craft - which are actually and validly distinguishable from art by application of the concept function/al-or else ignored the two entirely.

Is there such a thing as a timeless classic? More than a decade ago, Rochelle Gurstein set out to explore and establish a solid foundation for the classic in the history of taste. To her surprise, that history instead revealed repeated episodes of soaring and falling reputations, rediscoveries of long-forgotten artists, and radical shifts in the canon, all of which went so completely against common knowledge that it was hard to believe it was true.

This book has one purpose—to offer everyone the opportunity to become as wild about modern and contemporary art as I am. I am committed that your visits to modern and contemporary art exhibits become joyful, enriching experiences that you eagerly anticipate, avidly soak in and never get over. I say that the ability to appreciate art, including every type of art, is innate to all human beings. I have discovered that unlocking this natural love of art has much more to do with clearing out what's in the way than it does with accumulating information.

A pattern is a repeated design that is found everywhere in our world and even in outer space. All around you are both simple patterns and complicated patterns. The spiral of a seashell is very complex. But, there are patterns more complicated than a seashell. When did humans discover or invent patterns? There are cave paintings that are around 10,000 years old. They show hands in a pattern with 5 fingers.
