Reacting to the tumultuous crises of the twentieth century, especially the horrors of World War I, avant-garde artists and writers sought to destroy art by transforming it into the substance of everyday life. Following the evolution of these revolutionary groups, How to Be Avant-Garde charts its pioneers and radical ideas.

Three complaisant kids, two stormy parents, one anxious French poodle, too many U-haul trailers, and the potholed road of the early 1960s. Searching for Alpha Centauri is American Public Television artist Gary Spetz's boyhood memoir of living a nomadic life with an impetuous mother, a discontent casino-security-guard step-father, an anxious French poodle, and two complaisant siblings -- during the early 1960s. The artist/author paints his moving landscape with words. He adeptly colors these words with both humor and tenderness.

Brought to you by Penguin. Our estate was built on land claimed from fields – we were at the foot of those rolling Kilpatrick hills, but over the roof of the school you could see more green fields and woods. I felt grateful to be on the edge of all that countryside – there was a magnetic...

Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519) never signed a painting, and none of his supposed self-portraits can be securely ascribed to his hand. He revealed next to nothing about his life in his extensive writings, yet countless pages have been written about him that assign him an identity: genius, entrepreneur, celebrity artist, outsider. Addressing the ethical stakes involved in studying past lives, Stephen J. Campbell shows how this invented Leonardo has invited speculation from figures ranging from art dealers and curators to scholars, scientists, and biographers.

Le collaborazioni con Piero Angela e Enzo Jannacci, gli incontri con Mina e Matt Groening, il successo del Signor Rossi e quella notte degli Oscar in compagnia di Kim Basinger e un pirata... Con la complicità di Tempia, Bozzetto ripercorre le sue esperienze di creativo e regista - dai filmini adolescenziali sulle formiche del giardino di casa alla genesi di West and Soda e Vip, da Allegro non troppo fino a oggi -, intrecciandole ai momenti più formativi, divertenti e toccanti della sua vita, come quella volta che la stampa lo definì "meglio della Loren" o il giorno in cui ha scelto una pecora per amica.

В 1889 году художник, журналист и один из теоретиков символизма Эмиль Бернар написал небольшую заметку, посвященную творчеству Поля Сезанна. Долгие годы Бернар был поклонником художника, но познакомился с ним лично лишь в 1904 году, остановившись на месяц в Экс-ан-Провансе – родном городе и месте силы Сезанна. Почти каждый день Эмиль Бернар навещал Сезанна. Вместе они ходили на пленэры и много говорили об искусстве. Вспоминая эти встречи, а также перечитывая письма, полученные от своего учителя, Эмиль Бернар и написал эту небольшую книгу воспоминаний о великом художнике.

Growing up in Seale, Alabama as a Black Queer kid, then attending the Rhode Island School of Design as an undergraduate, Jon Key hungered to see himself in the fields of Art and Design. But in lectures, critiques, and in the books he read, he struggled to see and learn about people who intersected with his identity or who GOT him. So he started asking himself questions: What did it mean to be a graphic designer with his point of view? What did it mean to be a Black graphic designer?

This is the previously untold backstory of Ong's Hat, the Infinite Game, and proto-ARG. It weaves together early rudimentary Artificial Intelligence (AI), encounters with disembodied intelligence, emergence, and the budding Internet culture of the late 1980s and early 1990s. Elements of psychedelic culture, Avant Garde art, punk rock, industrial music, experimental theater, improv, method acting, hermetic magick, beat literature, Esalen, the works of Philip K. Dick, and more converge to create this modern tale of a spiritual quest.

Quando usciva dal Cinema Mirone, quel tornado di ragazzina si sentiva Jean Gabin dalla testa ai piedi. Ribelle, appassionata, braccata come lui, con una sigaretta immaginaria all'angolo delle labbra, Goliarda girava per la casbah di Catania come Jean per quella di Algeri. Poi se ne tornava a casa, dalla sua grande famiglia irregolare, resistente, chiassosa come una nave in festa. Io, Jean Gabin racconta tutto questo raccontando un pugno di giorni. È un tassello di quella che Goliarda Sapienza chiamava "autobiografia delle contraddizioni".
