Spacewear Weightlessness and the Final Frontier of Fashion Barbara Brownie

Explores space and fashion in the 21st century by analysing style-conscious engineering for outer space garments alongside high fashion’s experiments with weightlessness and new design principles on the catwalk. Mass commercial space travel is almost within our grasp and this otherworldly possibility is opening up new cultural images of space and causing fashion design and spacesuit engineering to intersect in new exciting ways. This book draws together speculative fantasies in sci-fi films such as Star Trek and 2001: A Space Odyssey, with the engineered spacesuits Biosuit and the NASA Z-2, and catwalk interpretations by the likes of Alexander McQueen and Iris van Herpen. Brownie demonstrates that high fashion’s experimentations with space extend far beyond 1960s metallic fabrics and helmet-style headwear, and into the possibilities and conundrums presented by weightlessness. Barbara Brownie is Principal Lecturer in Visual Communication at the University of Hertfordshire, UK. She is co- author of The Superhero Costume (Bloomsbury, 2015) and author of Transforming Type (Bloomsbury, 2015) and Acts of Undressing (Bloomsbury, 2016).

Through a practical exploration of the major approaches to contemporary screen acting, you will learn how to formulate your own effective modes of communication to craft compelling performances. Directing performances for the screen starts well before the actor is cast and finishes well after the last slate is shot. In this book you will learn how to analyze a script, brief the casting director, rehearse the actors, decide on the visual treatment that enriches their performances, direct effectively on set and finesse the character in the edit. The director’s process is clearly defined and augmented with illustrations, photographs and graphics, and each chapter concludes with practical exercises to consolidate the new knowledge.

A visually stunning introduction to the use of storytelling in photographic imagery. However beautiful or technically dazzling your photographs might be, if they don’t tell a story, convey an idea or make your viewer stop and think, they are unlikely to make a lasting impression. Context and Narrative in Photography introduces practical methods to help you plan, develop and present meaningful, communicative images. With dozens of examples from some of the world’s most thought-provoking photographers, this is a beautiful introduction to a fascinating aspect of photography. Beginning with an exploration of different narrative techniques, you’ll be guided through selecting and developing a compelling concept for your project and how it might be conveyed either through a single image or a series of photographs. You’ll also learn ways to incorporate signs, symbols and text into your work and how to present the finished piece to best reach your audience.

New Ways of Seeing The Democratic Language of Photography Grant Scott

Explains how to teach and learn photography as a visual language, appropriate for both the current professional photographic landscape and a millennial cohort. Grant Scott moves away from the preoccupation with grading and the false idea of a single ‘good image’, and instead explores the concept of narrative within photography. Crossing boundaries from traditional photography to digital ‘photosketching’, New Ways of Seeing questions the barriers between theory and practice, commissioned photography and art, in a way which references the current debates around 21st-century photography. With transferable tools to develop a creative voice, this book provides students with the skills to be a successful visual storyteller across all forms of photography.

Grant Scott is Senior Lecturer in Editorial and Advertising Photography at the University of Gloucestershire, UK.

Photography, Truth and Reconciliation Melissa Miles

Including a range of international case studies, this book charts the connections between photography and cultural responses to processes of truth and reconciliation. Through five compelling case studies from Argentina, Canada, Australia, South Africa and Cambodia, this book charts the connections between photography and a crucial issue in contemporary social history. The unprecedented significance attributed to witness and testimony in cultures of truth and reconciliation places historical assumptions about the ‘photographic witness’ under extraordinary pressure. By shifting focus away from the idea of history as a presentation of facts to an account shaped by personal narrative and experience, long-held conceptions of photography and how photographs are used to relate to others and the past are challenged. Melissa Miles is Associate Professor and an Australian Research Council Future Fellow, based in the Art History and Theory Program within the Faculty of Art, Design and Architecture at Monash University, Australia.

14 ARCHITECTURE

Second World Postmodernisms Architecture and Society under Late Socialism Vladimir Kulic

The first study of postmodernist architecture in the communist-socialist ‘Second World’. If postmodernism is ‘the cultural logic of late capitalism’, why did typical postmodernist themes like ornament, colour, history and identity find their application in the architecture of the communist Second World? How do we explain the retreat into paper architecture and theoretical discussion in societies still nominally devoted to socialist modernisation? This edited collection examines the answers to these questions, exploring whether or not architectural postmodernism had a specific second world variant, and staking out new ground as the first work to examine in-depth the transformations of second world architecture globally in the 1970s and 1980s.

The Dead City Urban Ruins and the Spectacle of Decay Paul Dobraszczyk

The Dead City unearths meanings from depictions of ruination and decay, looking at representations of both thriving cities and ones which are struggling, abandoned or simply in transition. It reveals that ruination presents a complex opportunity to envision new futures for a city, whether that is by rewriting its past or throwing off old assumptions and proposing radical change. Examining ruins in Chernobyl, Detroit, London, Manchester and Varosha, this book demonstrates that how we discuss and depict urban decline is intimately connected to the histories, economic forces, power structures and communities of a given city, as well as to conflicting visions for its future.

Bauhaus Bodies Gender, Sexuality, and Body Culture in Modernism’s Legendary Art School Edited by Elizabeth Otto and Patrick Rössler

Reassesses the Bauhaus in relation to ideas about gender, sexuality, health, and movement that were central to this most influential of art institutions. A century after its founding, this book examines The Bauhaus as more than a highly influential art, architecture and design school. In myriad ways, emerging ideas about the body in relation to health, movement, gender and sexuality were at the heart of art and life at the school. Bauhaus Bodies reassesses the work of both well-known members and those who have unjustifiably escaped scholarly scrutiny, its women in particular. In 14 essays by established experts and emerging scholars, this timely volume reveals how Bauhaus artists challenged traditional ideas about bodies and gender.

Recovers the original identity, aims and methods of the most influential art movement in late Imperial Russia, the Peredvizhniki (known in English as the Wanderers). Andrey Shabanov makes a significant and much welcome contribution to the history of 19th-century art, refining our understanding of Russia’s painterly canon and opening up possibilities for its integration in broader histories of Western culture. This comprehensive study examines for the first time the organizational structure, the modes of public self- representations, the visual output in original exhibition settings, and the critical reception of the Peredvizhniki group. Unprecedentedly rich in new primary visual and textual sources, the book also connects afresh the Russian and Western art worlds of the era.

Matisse’s Poets Critical Performance in the Artist’s Book Kathryn Brown

Critically re-examines Matisse’s artist’s books and analyzes the profound impact of literary culture on the development of Matisse’s aesthetic. This fresh account of Matisse’s position in the literary cross-currents of 20th-century France explores the ways reading influenced the artist’s work. By tracing the compositional and interpretive choices he made as painter, print maker, and reader in the field of book production, Matisse’s Poets offers a new theoretical account of visual art’s capacity to function as a form of literary criticism. Combining archival resources, art history, and literary criticism, Kathryn Brown offers a new interpretation of the artist’s books, and demonstrates the importance of his self-placement in relation to the French literary canon in the Second World War and its aftermath.

Deleuze and the Map-Image Aesthetics, Information, Code, and Digital Art Jakub Zdebik

Deleuze’s shifting image of the map is a critical skeleton key for contemporary digital visual art. The map, as it appears in Gilles Deleuze’s writings, is a concept guiding the exploration of new territories, no matter how abstract. With the advent of new media and digital technologies, contemporary artists have imagined a panoply of new spaces that put Deleuze’s concept to the test. Deleuze’s concept of the map bridges the gap between the analog and the digital, information and representation, virtual and actual, canvas and screen and is therefore best suited for the contemporary artistic landscape. Deleuze and the Map-Image explores cartography from philosophical and aesthetic perspectives and argues that the concept of the map is a critical touchstone for contemporary multidisciplinary art. Jakub Zdebik is Assistant Professor of Art History and Theory at the University of Ottawa, Canada. He is the author of Deleuze and the Diagram: Aesthetic Threads in Visual Organization (2012).

Latin Blackness in Parisian Visual Culture, 1852-1932 Lyneise E. Williams

Identifies the ways that ideas about Blackness and Latin American-ness were wedded in popular Parisian images of Latin Americans. Lyneise Williams examines the visual language used to portray Latin Americans in mid-19th to early 20th-century Parisian popular visual media. After identifying latter 19th-century Latinizing racial codes at play, the study focuses on shifts in visuality through three case studies: the depictions of popular Cuban circus entertainer, Chocolat; representations of Panamanian World Bantamweight Champion boxer, Alfonso Teofilo Brown; and paintings of Black Uruguayans by the Uruguayan artist Pedro Figari done during his residence in Paris between 1925-1933.

New York, New Wave The Legacy of Feminist Art in Emerging Practice Kathy Battista

Overview of feminist art/art theory from 1970s discusses prominent NY-based female artists such as Auriel Schmidt, E.V.Day, Marina Abramovic and Carolee Schneemann. New York is a centre of creative production for an exciting, emerging generation of women artists. This book investigates the relevance of earlier feminist practice for this ‘new’ generation, asking: Does gender difference still play a role in today’s practice? How can younger women artists embrace a radical political ideology and yet remain market friendly? How far have these artists diverged from the established feminist ‘tradition’? Artists discussed include: Firelei Baez, EV Day, Ruby LaToya Fraser, Diana Al-Hadid, K8 Hardy, Valerie Hegarty, Cindy Hinant, Dawn Kasper, Anya Kielar, Liz Magic Laser, Narcissister, Alix Pearlstein, Aurel Schmidt, AL Steiner and W.A.G.E.

Eighteenth-Century Art Worlds Global and Local Geographies of Art Edited by Stacey Sloboda and Michael Yonan

Maps the global art world of the 18th century, exploring both global connections and local specificities of art production and consumption in Africa, the Americas, Asia, and Europe. Transnational artistic networks are a familiar part of the contemporary global art world. This collection shows that they also existed in the 18th century and offers a new framework for studying them. It proposes an alternative to a simple progression of artistic styles and charts a new way of understanding the period’s art based in relationships among objects, spaces, and knowledge. 18th-century art exemplifies how the local and global intersected and how matters of geography, from interactions across vast distances to across a single street, lent meaning to the world.

Moving with the Magdalen Late Medieval Art and Devotion in the Alps Joanne W. Anderson

A recasting of Mary Magdalen as parish and pilgrims’ saint in the mountains through the agency of art. The first art-historical book dedicated to the cult of Mary Magdalen in the late medieval Alps. Its seven case study chapters focus on the artworks commissioned for key churches that belonged to both parish and pilgrimage networks in order to explore the role of artistic workshops, commissioning patrons and diverse devotees in the development and transfer of the saint’s iconography across the mountain range. Together they underscore how the Magdalen’s cult and contingent imagery interacted with the environmental conditions and landscape of this alpine region along late medieval routes.

Pain and Politics in Postwar Feminist Art Activism in the Work of Nancy Spero Rachel Warriner

A new reading of the relationship between emotion and politics at the time of the Vietnam War.

With special emphasis on the work of Nancy Spero, this volume presents it as exemplary of an activist turn to emotion, suggesting that Spero’s work acts as a compelling case study of a practice that – for ideological purposes – seeks to represent how politics feels.

Death of the Artist Art World Dissidents and Their Alternative Identities Nicola McCartney

How does contemporary art subvert the role of the artist/author? Some contemporary artists continually defy the traditional role of the artist/author, including Art & Language, Guerrilla Girls, Bob and Roberta Smith, Marvin Gaye Chetwynd and Lucky PDF. In Death of the Artist, Nicola McCartney explores their work and uses previously unpublished interviews to provoke a discussion about contemporary artistic authorship.
