Ian Charles Scott: The Likeness of Strangers
For Ian Charles Scott, New York City seems only a larger version of the community he knew in his hometown of Wick- a bigger village.The works in this book cover the whole of Scottish artist's career so far and divide into distinct groupings. There are the recent images of familiar faces from both cities: the Catch-22 man Scott stopped coming out of a James Ensor exhibition in New York, and the harbormaster, old sailor, and postmaster of Wick. The current, ink pictures of boxers and other Bronx and Brooklyn neighbors are remarkable for their piercing gaze and clarity of color. Sections on Scott's studies of a few notable men follow, concluding with several very large, powerful works on wood panel that helped start-off his career, and all of which are in the collections of various Scottish museums.
Living with Indifference
Living with Indifference is about the dimension of life that is utterly neutral, without care, feeling, or personality. In this provocative work that is anything but indifferent, Charles E. Scott explores the ways people have spoken and thought about indifference. Exploring topics such as time, chance, beauty, imagination, violence, and virtue, Scott shows how affirming indifference can be beneficial, and how destructive consequences can occur when we deny it. Scott's preoccupation with indifference issues a demand for focused attention in connection with personal values, ethics, and beliefs. This elegantly argued book speaks to the positive value of diversity and a world that is open to human passion.
