And in the End
"Ken McNab's in-depth look at The Beatles' acrimonious final year is a detailed account of the breakup featuring the perspectives of all four band members and their roles. A must to add to the collection of Beatles fans, And In the End is full of fascinating information available for the first time. McNab reconstructs for the first time the seismic events of 1969, when The Beatles reached new highs of creativity and new lows of the internal strife that would destroy them. Between the pressure of being filmed during rehearsals and writing sessions for the documentary Get Back, their company Apple Corps facing bankruptcy, Lennon's heroin use, and musical disagreements, the group was arguing more than ever before and their formerly close friendship began to disintegrate. In the midst of this rancour, however, emerged the disharmony of Let It Be and the ragged genius of Abbey Road, their incredible farewell love letter to the world"--
Making Patton
Forever known for its blazing cinematic image of General George S. Patton (portrayed by George C. Scott) addressing his troops in front of a mammoth American flag, Patton won seven Oscars in 1971, including those for Best Picture and Best Actor. In doing so, it beat out a much-ballyhooed M*A*S*H, irreverent darling of the critics, and grossed $60 million despite an intense anti-war climate. But, as Nicholas Evan Sarantakes reveals, it was a film that almost didn't get made. Sarantakes offers an engaging and richly detailed production history of what became a critically acclaimed box office hit. He takes readers behind the scenes, even long before any scenes were ever conceived, to recount th...
Dreaming the Beatles
An NPR Best Book of the Year • Winner of the Virgil Thomson Award for Outstanding Music Criticism “This is the best book about the Beatles ever written” —Mashable Rob Sheffield, the Rolling Stone columnist and bestselling author of Love Is a Mix Tape offers an entertaining, unconventional look at the most popular band in history, the Beatles, exploring what they mean today and why they still matter so intensely to a generation that has never known a world without them. Dreaming the Beatles is not another biography of the Beatles, or a song-by-song analysis of the best of John and Paul. It isn’t another exposé about how they broke up. It isn’t a history of their gigs or their gea...
Jennifer Bolande
For the past 25 years Jennifer Bolande (born 1957) has engaged in an intuitive form of conceptualism, using a variety of media including photography, sculpture, photo-objects, collage, film, installation and dance, to record or create visual anomalies. Photographer Sharon Lockhart describes her works as "photographic sculptures and sculptural photographs," terms that are readily applied to Bolande's best-known work, "Milk Crown"--a porcelain reproduction of Harold Edgerton's famous 1956 photo of a milk splash. Landmarks is the first monograph on her work. Sequenced and co-designed by the artist, it carries the viewer into and through the sets of elements, themes and narratives that recur and dovetail throughout her work. In addition to images of her most significant works, the catalogue includes a wealth of resource material, providing a view of the artist's process and fields of interest.
