A light-hearted effort to make the art world a little bit happier, from the cofounder of Larry's List After living and working in the art world for the past 15 years, Christoph Noe brought pen to paper to gather some thoughts on how to navigate the culture industry. "It first developed foremost as a guide for myself as I continuously challenge the mission that I am on in the art world, asking myself why I am still doing what I am doing," he reports. "Or sometimes, more dramatically, 'If art is used in therapy, why do we almost need therapy when working in the art industry?'" Following multiple conversations and with the encouragement of his art-world crew, Noe hopes that these guidelines can function as a possible motivator for those in the industry. Christoph Noefounded the Ministry of Art in 2005 with a focus on Chinese artists from the post-1970s and 1980s generation. In 2013 he cofounded Larry's List, a premier resource for art collectors.

Traditionally, organizations and researchers have focused on learning that occurs through formal training and development programs. However, the realities of today’s workplace suggest that it is difficult, if not impossible, for organizations to rely mainly on formal programs for developing human capital. This volume offers a broad-based treatment of autonomous learning to advance our understanding of learner-driven approaches and how organizations can support them. Contributors in industrial/organizational psychology, management, education, and entrepreneurship bring theoretical perspectives to help us understand autonomous learning and its consequences for individuals and organizations. Chapters consider informal learning, self-directed learning, learning from job challenges, mentoring, Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs), organizational communities of practice, self-regulation, the role of feedback and errors, and how to capture value from autonomous learning. This book will appeal to scholars, researchers, and practitioners in psychology, management, training and development, and educational psychology.

Gendered Bodies introduces readers to women's visual art in contemporary China by examining how the visual process of gendering reshapes understandings of historiography, sexuality, pain, and space. When artists take the body as the subject of female experience and the medium of aesthetic experiment, they reveal a wealth of noncanonical approaches to art. The insertion of women's narratives into Chinese art history rewrites a historiography that has denied legitimacy to the woman artist. The gendering of sexuality reveals that the female body incites pleasure in women themselves, reversing the dynamic from woman as desired object to woman as desiring subject. The gendering of pain demonstrat...
