Design and Agency
Design and Agency brings together leading international design scholars and practitioners to address the concept of agency in relation to objects, organisations and people. The authors set out to expand the scope of design history and practice, avoiding the heroic narratives of a typical modernist approach. They consider both how the agents of design construct and express their identities and subjectivities through practice, while also investigating the distinctive contribution of design in the construction of individual identity and subjectivity. Individual chapters explore notions of agency in a range of design disciplines and historical periods, including the agency of women in effecting ...

Kicking the Bar
Today the very nature of the BBC is being called into question, its future uncertain. But for legendary BBC broadcaster Huw Wheldon—a remarkable man who devoted his life to his country, his family and the public—its unwavering purpose was clear: to make the good popular and the popular good. With excerpts from Wheldon’s private letters and an archive of family memories and photos, Wynn Wheldon traces back through his father’s life, beginning with his Welsh and Protestant roots and his formative military service, through his time working with the Arts Council and the Festival of Britain, and culminating in his reign as one of the most influential media figures of the 20th century.

Get the Picture
AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER In Cork Dork, Bianca Bosker trained her insatiable curiosity, journalist's knack for infiltrating exclusive circles and eye for unforgettable characters on the wine world as she trained to become a sommelier. Now she brings her whip-smart yet accessible sensibility along for a ride through another subculture of elite obsessives. In Get the Picture, Bosker plunges deep inside the world of art and the people who live for it: gallerists, collectors, curators and, of course, artists themselves - the kind who work multiple jobs and let their paintings sleep soundly in the studio while they wake up covered in cat pee on a friend's couch. As she stretches canvas...
