Sapphire Sphere: Portal to Eternity
Biblical prophets and saints of old had access to spiritual portals to communicate with Yahweh and transport from one location to another as the spirit moved them. You have the ability to transport from the center of your mind to the Holy of Holies in heaven. Christ is the portal, and he is in us. This means the portal of heaven is inside of us. "Yahweh is in his holy temple, Yahweh's throne is in heaven" (Psalms 11:4). You are the temple of God and his spirit is dwells in you (1Corinthians 3:16, & 6:19). God is in you (his temple) on the throne inside of you. His throne is in heaven and this means heaven is within you. Christ said, "The kingdom of God is inside of you" (Luke 17:21). We are in God and he is in us. "In him we live, and move, and have our being" (Acts 17:28). If you are willing to make some changes and to dedicate some effort and time, the proper forms of meditation will carry you to wonderful places heretofore unknown by you. All you need to do is open the door.
African Artists
In recent years Africa's booming art scene has gained substantial global attention, with a growing number of international exhibitions and a stronger-than-ever presence on the art market worldwide. Here, for the first time, is the most substantial survey to date of modern and contemporary African-born or Africa-based artists. Working with a panel of experts, this volume builds on the success of Phaidon's bestselling Great Women Artists in re-writing a more inclusive and diverse version of art history.
Self-taught & Outsider Art
This spectacular volume reproduces in full color some 150 pieces from the Anthony Petullo Collection, an extraordinary assemblage of paintings and drawings produced by individuals working outside the perimeter of conventional art training and traditions. Some of the pieces are fanciful, even whimsical. Others are haunting in their unembellished depiction of vulnerability and terror. Some are spare; others are crowded with figures. Some exhibit a childlike simplicity; others are almost sculpted in their precision and clarity. The thirty-six European and North American artists represented in Self-Taught and Outsider Art include a hospital janitor, a factory worker, concentration camp survivors...

Out of The Sun
History is a construction. What happens when we bring stories consigned to the margins up to the light? How does that complicate our certainties about who we are, as individuals, as nations, as human beings? As in her fiction, the essays in Out of the Sun demonstrate Esi Edugyan's commitment to seeking out the stories of Black lives that history has failed to record. In five wide-ranging essays, written with the rise of the Black Lives Matter movement in the background, Edugyan reflects on her own identity and experiences. She delves into the history of Western Art and the truths about Black lives that it fails to reveal, and the ways contemporary Black artists are reclaiming and reimagining those lives. She explores and celebrates the legacy of Afrofuturism, the complex and problematic practice of racial passing, the place of ghosts and haunting in the imagination, and the fascinating relationship between Africa and Asia dating back to the 6th Century. With calm, piercing intelligence, Edugyan asks difficult questions about how we reckon with the past and imagine the future.
