Life and Beyond
Life and Beyond is a collaboration between the prize-winning film director Jonah L. Salander, who is responsible for the beautiful and profound photographs in this volume, and his father, the artist and poet Lawrence Salander. This book is the result of Jonah Salander's habit of walking the streets of New York City, where for various reasons-including his love for the city and his profound regard and empathy for the people who live there, and as a tool for his work as a film director-he photographs those vignettes he discovers. These photographs inspired the photographer's father Lawrence to write the accompanying poems. Lawrence Salander is also the author of Art as I See It, published by Austin Macauley in 2019.

'The wild waters Spoke in frenzied sounds The thunder about a mile away Barrel staves from the bayside Broke through the Beach Finally free When the water and the wind Swept the sand away...' This is a collection of 100 poems and appropriations of the many hundreds Salander wrote while serving time in the New York State Department of Corrections.

The Crucifixion in American Art
The crucifixion of Christ has been richly portrayed by countless artists for hundreds of years, but it was European Renaissance styles and painters such as Kurz, Benjamin West and John Valentine Haidt that first informed American artists of the possibilities for depicting the crucifixion. This work features artists living and working in America from the mid-18th to the 21st century who depicted the crucifixion of Christ in their artwork. The 19th century saw painters like Julian Russell Story, John Singer Sargent, Vassili Verestchagin and Fred Holland break from the Renaissance tradition of the 18th century to begin a religious art revolution. The 20th century saw painters like Thomas Eakins and George Bellows continuing the traditions of the 19th until the Realist style became dominant, which lasted until the latter part of the century and the rise of Abstract Expressionism and a number of experimental styles such as Op, Pop, and Super-realism.

The Art of the Con
Art scams are today so numerous that the specter of a lawsuit arising from a mistaken attribution has scared a number of experts away from the business of authentication and forgery, and with good reason. Art scams are increasingly convincing and involve incredible sums of money. The cons perpetrated by unscrupulous art dealers and their accomplices are proportionately elaborate. Anthony M. Amore's The Art of the Con tells the stories of some of history's most notorious yet untold cons. They involve stolen art hidden for decades; elaborate ruses that involve the Nazis and allegedly plundered art; the theft of a conceptual prototype from a well-known artist by his assistant to be used later t...

An old lady and a young man meet on a crosswalk in Manhattan in bizarre circumstances which drastically change the directions of their lives. A foul-mouthed youth is killed in a traffic accident.
