Time Between Days
Time Between Days By Greg Johns Students walking to class at Sun Yat-Sen University on Mainland China find the body of Sean Michael Barber, a high-level arms dealer, lying beside a small saltwater canal. He had been shot in the back of the head with a small caliber pistol, execution style. Firearms transgressions in Asian countries are nothing new to André Woo, an investigator in the Firearms Division of Interpol. Possessing average intelligence but sharp instincts, Woo finds himself on yet another investigation in Hong Kong. However, the Barber assassination isn’t all what is seems. André quickly learns that the Barber assassination is just one of five committed in various locations around the world, all within a few minutes of each other at exact solar midnight. What is the significance of the exact solar midnight to these murders? Can André piece together the pieces of this puzzle and realize the key to solving the crimes?
Horizon
HORIZON: GREG JOHNS, SCULPTURES 1970-2002 traces the ideas and career of the Adelaide-based artist from his first commission in the late 1970s through to participation in recent exhibitions in New York and Bahrain. The story is told by noted Adelaide writer and art critic, John Neylon of the Art Gallery of South Australia. His text examines all aspects of the artist's development as a creator of large-scale public sculptures and explains the philosophy that has shaped the work. The reader is led through a rich array of ideas and images relating to the use of sculptural form as a language in which the works serve as metaphors for the human psyche and the natural/cosmic systems that define our world. A number of key sculptures are examined in detail - as are issues surrounding public art and its reception within the community. The processes of commissioning, creating and installing the sculptures are described along with intimate glimpses into the creation of each work as it proceeds from the artist's studio, to the engineering works where it is fabricated, and then on to its intended site.

This practical guide is a collaborative publication stemming from the partnership between BMW and Independent Collectors, the international online platform for collectors of contemporary art. To date, neither the Internet nor any book has ever contained a comparable assembly of international private collections, including several that have opened their doors to art lovers and connoisseurs for the first time.
