Women, Motifs and Variations
At once both controversial and classical, Rafal Olbinski has built a career around examining the mystery of women. His paintings depict a woman who is both distant and effortlessly available. In this first publication of his paintings, Olbinski creates a world that seeks to celebrate the secrets of women without destroying their mystery. Born in post-war Poland, Olbinski built a successful career as a poster artist and graphic designer in Europe before immigrating to the United States in the early 1980's. Best known for his depictions of women, this book explores Olbinski's unique perspective on such classical figures as Salome and Da Vinci's Mona Lisa, to contemporary women and their place in today's world.

George Washington and Political Fatherhood
More than two hundred years after his death, George Washington is still often considered the metaphorical father of the United States. He was first known as the "Father of His Country" during his lifetime, when the American people bestowed the title upon him as a symbolic act of resistance and rebirth. Since then, presidents have stood as paternal figureheads for America, often serving as moral beacons. This book tracks political fatherhood throughout world history, from the idea of the pater patriae in Roman antiquity to Martin Luther's Bible translations and beyond. Often using George Washington as a paradigm, the author explores presidential iconography in the U.S., propaganda and the role of paternal rhetoric in shaping American sociopolitical history--including the results of the 2016 presidential election.
