Para Francis Schaeffer, o cristão deve usar as artes para glorificar a Deus, não simplesmente como propaganda evangelística, mas como algo belo para a glória de Deus. "A Arte e a Bíblia" é uma obra fundamental para cristãos atuantes no mundo das artes. Neste clássico, Schaeffer examina o registro escritural da utilização de várias formas artísticas e estabelece uma perspectiva cristã sobre a arte. Com clareza e vigor, ele explica por que "o cristão é alguém cuja imaginação deve voar além das estrelas".

In this conversation with Audible Editor Katie, historian Dan Jones reveals that he dove into writing his first novel after a gentle shove from George R.R. Martin. Listen in to hear Dan’s story about the writing and recording of Essex Dogs.

At twenty-five years old, Michael Stewart was a young Black aspiring artist, deejay, and model, looking to make a name for himself in the vibrant downtown art scene of the early 1980’s New York City. On September 15, 1983, he was brutally beaten by New York City Transit Authority police for allegedly tagging a 14th Street subway station wall. Witnesses reported officers beating him with Billy clubs and choking him with a nightstick. Stewart arrived at Bellevue Hospital hog-tied with no heartbeat and died after thirteen days in a coma.

Stories of "The American West" often rely on tired tropes of tough cowboys, but real history is much less straight and narrow and way more interesting. Join host Niecy Nash-Betts for a wild round-up of LGBTQ+ lives that got buried in the dust of popular culture and history, and a look at how queer people continue to shape the West today–from gay rodeo to two-spirit identity to trans truckers.

Cv/VAR 124 publishes an interview recorded in 2010 with Mat Collishaw, first published in Interviews-Artists Volume Three, explores the range of his work, from 'zoetropes', animated models exhibited at the Freud Museum and installed at the Victoria and Albert museum, to photo-works and projections, with the artist’s original interventions in the natural world that fuse histories, desires and dreams. This edition includes studies of Nam June Paik and other essays on contemporary art.

Written between 2015-16, with color images of well-known old masters and contemporary art as well as some of the Bergers’ own drawings and watercolors, Over to You is an informal back and forth not unlike the ping-pong games father and son used to play in the barn of their house. It begins when John—who is in a Parisian suburb—sends Yves—who is in Haute Savoie—an envelope of reproductions of art that have moved him. And so they begin to reveal their thoughts looking at a Goya, Watteau, Twombly, Joan Mitchell, Durer, Caravaggio, Manet, and Euan Uglow, among many others.

Как известно, жизнь каждого яркого дарования делится обычно на три периода. Сначала его осыпают насмешками и бранью, всячески угнетают и преследуют. Потом открывается счастливое время признания, за которым следуют дни восторженного поклонения. Наконец, так же неминуемо наступает охлаждение, сопровождающееся нередко резкими выпадами по адресу недавнего любимца и властителя дум. Этой трафаретной схемы избежали немногие даровитые люди, и единственный вариант, вносимый в нее жизнью, сводится к тому, что одни умирают в расцвете славы, а другим суждено ее пережить, изведать к концу жизни всю горечь забвения.

Karl Kraus gilt als einer der bedeutendsten Aphoristiker deutscher Sprache. Ob berühmte Schriftsteller oder die Presse - nichts und niemand wurde von der gnadenlosen Kritik seiner Feder verschont. Bekannte Künstler wie Stefan Zweig, Georg Trakl, Thomas Mann und andere zollten ihm Respekt, aber die Zahl seiner Feinde in Kunst und Gesellschaft war enorm. Als Vorleser hinterließ er aufgrund seiner Sprachgewalt und Persönlichkeit angeblich einen äußerst außergewöhnlichen Eindruck.

A pattern is a repeated design that is found everywhere in our world and even in outer space. All around you are both simple patterns and complicated patterns. The spiral of a seashell is very complex. But, there are patterns more complicated than a seashell. When did humans discover or invent patterns? There are cave paintings that are around 10,000 years old. They show hands in a pattern with 5 fingers.

Poor Artists follows aspiring artist Quest Talukdar as she embarks on a surreal journey into the creative industry, where she must decide whether she cares more about success or staying true to herself. Featuring dialogue from anonymous interviews with real people who have all had to ask themselves the same question – including a Turner Prize winner or two, a recluse, a Venice Biennale fraudster, a communist messiah, a ghost, and a literal knight – The White Pube tell the story of art like never before.

From prominent critic and biographer Blake Gopnik comes a compelling new portrait of America’s first great collector of modern art, Albert Coombs Barnes. Raised in a Philadelphia slum shortly after the Civil War, Barnes rose to earn a medical degree and then made a fortune from a pioneering antiseptic treatment for newborns. Never losing sight of the working-class neighbors of his youth, Barnes became a ruthless advocate for their rights and needs.

What does it mean to be someone's "muse"? Historically, to be called a “muse” among artistic circles has been marketed as a flattering title. But the very concept of a muse underestimates these women and their abilities. At its root, muse is a support role, the title a consolation prize that claims to recognize a woman’s greatness—but only in her support of another. I'm Not Your Muse reclaims the narrative of 31 of these extraordinary women.

Die beiden Freunde Gilbert und Ernst diskutieren darüber, in wieweit Kritik an Kunst eine eigene Kunstform abbildet und größere intellektuelle und künstlerische Fähigkeiten voraussetzt als das Erschaffen eines Kunstwerks. Dabei entfaltet sich ein Regenbogen formaler und ästhetischer Gesichtspunkte von Kunst und ihr Dialog spannt einen eleganten Bogen zum facettenreichen Kern des Themas.

Received opinion holds that art is culturally determined and relative. We are told that whether a picture, a movement, a text, or sound qualifies as a "work of art" largely depends on social attitudes and convention. Drawing on examples ranging from Paleolithic cave paintings to modern pop music and building on the ideas of James Joyce, Oscar Wilde, Gilles Deleuze, Carl Jung, and others, J.F. Martel argues that art is an inborn human phenomenon that precedes the formation of culture and even society.
