Un estudio único de 350 obras de arte de artistas LGBTQ+ de todo el mundo, muchos de ellos poco reconocidos y olvidados, de los últimos 50 años.Aunque los disturbios de Stonewall sean ahora la abreviatura del inicio del movimiento por los derechos de los homosexuales, gran parte del arte y la cultura han sido ''queer'' desde el principio de los tiempos.

Katz explora este concepto de frente, comisariando un tapiz de obras que conectan hilos históricos y revelan cómo el género y la identidad sexual han sido entretejidos por artistas contemporáneos y posteriores a Stonewall.Con más de 350 obras de más de 40 artistas LGBTQ+ de distintas nacionalidades y generaciones, y textos originales de artistas y académicos, About Face es tan sorprendente como importante.Jonathan David Katz, PhD, es Profesor Asociado de Práctica en Historia del Arte y Estudios de Género, Sexualidad y Mujer en la Universidad de Pensilvania. En 2019, Katz comisarió About Face: Stonewall, Revolt and New Queer Art en la galería Wrightwood 659 de Chicago.Con textos de Julian Carter, Anthony Cianciolo, Amelia Jones, Ava L.H.

This book covers some of the key global dynamics of our age. It aspires to assist the non-specialized reader, as well as the specialized one, to understand the world we live in, the forces that affect our coexistence, the trends that will shape our future and the promising avenues for peace and prosperity. Globalization, collective security, the connection between human rights, development and peace will be some of the concepts upon which the book aims to shed some light in a rigorous but a didactic manner. In addition, those complex cases that rarely are explained in the divulgative media, such as the functioning of the United Nations and its mechanisms for conflict resolution, Daesh and Al-Qaeda, the Palestinian conflict, the Arab Spring, the wars of Iraq and Afghanistan and the violence in Afrika will be examined balancing the details with the need to be pedagogical. In brief, this work is an attempt, on the one hand, to describe and explain the forces and threats that were present and contributed to the upsurge of coronavirus pandemics, such as climate change and the exploitation of nature and, on the other, to set some hopeful paths and to inform policies to rearrange our order: if social dynamics are global, global should be our political governance too. Finally, the book approaches, from an innovative and enlightening manner, the ins and outs of the Russian aggression to Ukraine.

Written by a well-known artist and best-selling art-instruction author with almost rock-star popularity in the contemporary world of representational art, Beginning Drawing Atelier, with its unique workbook/sketchbook approach, and high-quality paper, offers a comprehensive and contemporary twist on traditional Atelier art instruction practices.Atelier education is centered on the belief that working in a studio, not sitting in the lecture hall, is the best place to learn about art. Every artist needs to learn basic drawing skills.In this elegant and inspiring workbook, master contemporary artist and best selling author Juliette Aristides breaks down the drawing process into small, manageable lessons, presents them progressively, introduces time-tested principles and techniques in the Atelier tradition that are easily accessible, and shares the language and context necessary to understand the artistic process and create superior, well-crafted drawings.What makes this approach unique is the fact that it includes blank pages for copying and practicing within each lesson, facilitating traditional Atelier methods. Ateliers have produced the greatest artists of all time--and now that educational model is experiencing a renaissance.These studios, in a return to classical art training, are based on the nineteenth-century model of teaching artists by pairing them with a master artist over a period of years. Students begin by copying masterworks, then gradually progress to painting as their skills develop.Beginning Drawing Atelier is like having an atelier in a book - and the master is Juliette Aristides, a classically trained artist. On every page, Aristides uses the works of Old Masters and today's most respected realist artists to demonstrate and teach the principles of realist drawing and painting, taking students step by step through the learning curve yet allowing them to work at their own pace. Unique and inspiring, the approach in this new book offers serious art courses for serious art students.

Esta obra nos introduce en el interesante mundo de la cerámica italiana de la época clásica, en la que los motivos representados con más frecuencia eran Dioniso y su reino. La aproximación de la autora a esta cuestión es fundamentalmente iconográfica, pero no se limita a esta perspectiva, ya que analiza e interpreta la cerámica dionisiaca desde su profundo conocimiento de la filosofía y de la religión antigua. De este modo, Paloma Cabrera da cuenta de las dimensiones filosóficas, literarias y religiosas de las ideas que sugiere la imaginería de las numerosas vasijas analizadas y expuestas en el libro. Pero la obra no solo se mueve en el plano ideal, sino que también alcanza a los intereses prácticos de los antiguos usuarios de estos útiles: revela sus visiones sobre la vida y la muerte, sobre la tristeza y la felicidad, sobre el sentido, en último término, de su mundo cotidiano. La obra se encuentra profusamente veteada por imágenes de vasijas antiguas que serán del gusto de arqueólogos e historiadores.
