Pictures and the Past

  • Categories: Art

"The group of artists known as the "Pictures Generation" are usually thought to have rebelled against abstract and minimalist art by bringing back figural techniques and borrowing liberally from the aesthetics of mass media and advertising. Challenging conventional interpretations of this group, Alexander Bigman argues that these artists-especially Robert Longo, Jack Goldstein, Sarah Charlesworth, Gretchen Bender, and Troy Brauntuch-deployed totalitarian and fascist iconography to pose new, politically loaded questions about what it means to perceive the world historically in a society saturated by images. Throughout, he also situates their work in the context of other developments taking place in New York City at the time, including music, fashion, cinema, and literature. This is a book about art, popular culture, and memory, and especially about how the specter of fascism loomed for these artists in the 1970s and 1980s, and the ways it still looms for us today"--

Redemption and Restoration

The Catholic Church teaches that punishment must have a constructive and redemptive purpose and that it be coupled with treatment and, when possible, restitution. Rehabilitation and restoration must include the spiritual dimension of healing and hope. Since the publication of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishop's 2000 pastoral statement on restorative justice, the conversation surrounding the need for criminal justice reform and restorative justice has moved forward. Redemption and Restoration responds from a Catholic perspective to help form an educational campaign to equip Catholics and their leaders to participate in the national conversation on this issue, create the programs...

Justice That Transforms, Volume One

  • Categories: Law

Restorative Justice was a term and concept largely unused before the mid-1970s. Wayne Northey happened to be in on the ground floor of facilitating its worldwide adoption as a challenge to Western retributive justice systems, ultimately to violent responses to conflict domestically and internationally. The most replicated early model of Restorative Justice, based on the well-known “Elmira Case,” was a Canadian first, initially dubbed Victim Offender Reconciliation Project (VORP). The author became its second director in 1977. The term “mediation” later displaced the more religious word, “reconciliation,” as the model spread outside Christian moorings; and “program” displaced the initially more tentative “project.” At seminary, Northey had learned to think through one’s vocation theologically. He began in that vein, writing and publishing on this profound call for a systemic “paradigm shift,” and has been at it ever since. This publication is volume 1 of a series of his collected writings, of which two additional volumes may be found online. Two or three further volumes are projected.

The Jungle That I Am

  • Categories: Art

The Jungle That I Am marks an exquisite new high point in the long arc of Nina Alexander's distinguished artistic career. This new publication highlights a recent collection of her vivid pastel drawings (2019-2021) all reproduced in full color that follow on an insightful essay looking at earlier decades of work preceding these images chronicled here for the first time as a collection in high resolution. The 90-page digital book reveals a colorful dream-driven mythos: "Symbols from the depths of fantasy worlds and mythology animate metamorphic forms. Hints of folk, outsider and indigenous art are conveyed with fluent lines and vibrant colors. There are manifestations of a powerful unconscious drive and pan-cultural erudition in these luminous, festive works." -excerpt from Gordon McConnell's essay A Dream World Bestiary Published as an ebook with 77 full page reproductions. Introduction by Nina Alexander; essay by Gordon McConnell; edited by Christopher Warner. Published by Materialist Press, an imprint of Cereal Box Studio, 2022. ISBN 978-1-7335169-6-9

Heart Waters

Water does not come from the river. It comes to the river. Heart Waters takes us to the sources of that water - and into the living beauty, human stories and future possibilities that also arise from the green slopes and valleys of Alberta's Eastern Slopes where the Bow River is born. For more than a century ago the foothills and Front Range mountains of western Alberta have been recognized vital to the future water supply for Canada's prairies. Virtually all the water that sustains communities, ecosystems and the economy of prairie Canada comes from this narrow strip of land arrayed along the Continental Divide. For all its importance, however, water management decisions have ignored the im...

As experiences of suffering continue to influence the responses of identity groups in the midst of violent conflict, a way to harness their narratives, stories, memories, and myths in transformative and non-violent ways is needed. From Suffering to Solidarity explores the historical seeds of Mennonite peacebuilding approaches and their application in violent conflicts around the world. The authors in this book first draw out the experiences of Anabaptists and Mennonites from the sixteenth-century originsthrough to the present that have shaped their approaches to conflict transformation and inspired new generations of Mennonites to engage in relief, development, and peacebuilding to alleviate...
