He may be a player, but this stud’s not shooting blanks. NICK I'm nobody's baby daddy. I don't care how many stunning women throw themselves at me, looking to turn one hot night into an eighteen-year paycheck. I've got way too much on the line to throw it away for one night of pleasure. Ball is life, and basketball is my first priority. I've got a championship to win. But when I see that familiar face shaking her pom-poms on the sidelines, I’m transported back to childhood, Back to the days before a fiery plane crash ripped us apart, forcing us to grow up overnight. Those were the days when Eden Evans stole my heart. This time, I might be ready to give it right back to her. EDEN I hav...
De jaren zestig in de carrière van de veelzijdige Amerikaanse maker (geb. 1941) van o.a. performances, installaties, videokunst en sculptuur.
The career of the German-American painter and educator Hans Hofmann (1880–1966) describes the arc of artistic modernism from pre–World War I Munich and Paris to mid twentieth-century Greenwich Village. His career also traces the transatlantic engagement of modern painting with the materials of its own making, a relationship that is perhaps still not completely understood. In these interrelated narratives, Hofmann is a central protagonist, providing a vital link between nineteenth- and twentieth-century art practice and between European and American modernism. The remarkable vitality of his later work affords insight not only into the style but also the literal substance of this formative...
A groundbreaking reading of Duchamp's work as informed by Asian “esoterism, ” energetic spiritual practices identifying creative energy with the erotic impulse. Considered by many to be the most important artist of the twentieth century, the object of intensive critical scrutiny and extensive theorizing, Marcel Duchamp remains an enigma.

This book takes found language from archived exhibition catalogues from the Blaffer Art Museum, the art museum of the University of Houston. The language has been chopped up and reconfigured into prose poems and disjunctive critical analyses, and is intended to mimic an exhibition catalogue/written thesis in itself, albeit through abstracted language. This is a thesis project for artist and writer Betsy Huete
The first collection of scholarly essays on women and art in Canadian history.
Harvey Quaytman’s paintings are distinct for their inventive, whimsical exploration of shape, meticulous attention to surface texture, and experimental application of color. While his works display a rigorous commitment to formalism, they are simultaneously invested with rich undertones of sensuality, decorativeness, and humor—expressed, too, in his playful poetic titles, such as A Street Called Straight and Kufikind. Demonstrating the arc of Quaytman’s oeuvre, from his radically curvilinear canvases of the late 1960s and 1970s, to his exploration of serialized geometric abstraction in the 1980s, and finally to his serene cruciform canvases of the 1990s, this retrospective exhibition a...
